instagram: @parksandparadise email:…read moreparksandparadise@gmail.com website: https://parksandparadise.com A pop-up local small business usually found at O'ahu events in Mililani, Kāne'ohe and Honolulu as a vendor. I had the wonderful pleasure of finding them at the 33rd annual Hawai'i Arts, Crafts & Food Festival during Merrie Monarch week. At Nani Mau Gardens, April 2026 on the Big Island of Hawai'i. PARKS and PARADISE. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ First, I have to appreciate the logistics involved for this O'ahu small business to be here for three days. To pack and ship their inventory; along with racks, shelves, signage and stands. Manufacturing enough items to be sold, tagged and bagged ready to sell. And then there's the costs associated, along with lodging for four nights. Just to be here for the Merrie Monarch Festival. For exposure, hoping for great sales in-return. To reach-out to locals and visitors alike. An introduction to their company went so well on day one, I honestly returned the day after to purchase more items after visiting five craft fairs. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Many vendors at various craft fairs during Merrie Monarch week showcased the same identical products, but appeared different based on the owner's sourcing and creativity. Honestly, PARKS and PARADISE stood out over the rest in my eyes. Due to their unique description and visual representation of each core item. Stylish handmade aesthetics, the designs and prints lured me into this vendor's corner. The quality displayed spoke heavily to me. With a keen eye for fashion, I began to appreciate what was created and crafted. I purchased items for friends, for myself. I began to shop for Christmas, looking beyond the present day. After Merrie Monarch week, I wished I had purchased additional items from PARKS and PARADISE. Their website is live for purchases, shipping available. I'm also already looking forward to their return to the Big Island next April. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ While browsing and shopping on two separate occasions, I had the pleasure of meeting Arlene on day one and Jonathan, her fiancée on day two. I was honored to converse with such passionate individuals. Their entrepreneurial spirit shined bright, as they extended a personal connection to the items that were of interest to me. Hailing from Waipahu, her business became so demanding, manufacturing was strategically outsourced with her initial designs in-mind. Requiring strict quality control ensuring the external partner met her standards, it showed in everything that was on-display. I honestly saw it on every item. Their love for everything Disney, I connected immediately as Jonathan shared cruise recommendations and a personal story of his proposal to Arlene in-front of the Disneyland castle in Winter 2024. I seriously saw the "magic" and felt it, as their products and personalities indirectly evoked my emotions through storytelling. Sharing "their" personal story, producing more than functional items. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ I'm hoping this new Yelp page will help promote and broaden their audience of shoppers, for future visits and transactions. Because I truly felt the connection with this small business, with their products and the couple representing them. I hope you do too. Find them at select events on O'ahu and during Merrie Monarch week in Hilo at one of the many craft fairs. I'm already looking forward to their 6th appearance in 2027 on the Big Island of Hawai'i. Follow them on Instagram for future dates and locations, an email is also available in lieu of a phone number. PARKS and PARADISE, "Cute and Practical Accessories Inspired by Magic and Aloha".
