A couple of years ago, when I went to Kauai with my best friend since fifth grade, I got some pretty adorable vintage look wooden post cards. I planned to use them as coasters for beverages.
But I never got around to it.
Then, last week, in Maui, I came across the cutest hula girl tea towels, and I knew they needed to be with my wooden coasters...er postcards, so I bought them, and popped them in my suitcase.
Tuesday night I was making grilled teriyaki chicken sammies, with Swiss cheese and grilled pineapple slices on toasted buns, and I figured that was about as Hawaiian as I ever really get in the kitchen, so I should put those little treasures to good use.
I started with some old thrifted rattan trays for placemats, and added the wooden postcards, and tea towels as napkins.
So cute!
