I dropped everything to drive two hours south, to pick up this gorgeous, pristine, amazing Witco tiki hula girl artwork at an estate sale, then drove two hours home. The piece is 60″ high and 30″ wide — a real statement piece for sure! I also got a small Witco stool that sat under it for many many years. Like, since 1980, at least. She will be a crowning jewel of my Mahalo Lounge! I am so psyched!

Pam – Are you using any specific site to pay attention to estate sales? I’m in the market for a specific set of dining room furniture, and its most likely to turn up at an estate sale, so long as I know where to keep looking.
No, I found this via craigslist. I watch for local estate sales via my newspaper.
I use two websites. Estatesales.net and estastesales.org. You can set up preferences and they will email you with sales that match your parameters.
