DIY aspect is great because even those with less creative skills can feel like they've made their own thing here. Best idea for those unique-named kids birthday present or a memento from a girls' trip. Who needs a tattoo when you can get a useful pouch or passport holder? The clock is one of the most unique things in the store, and I'd consider doing that one on my next trip to the big island since I should probably cool my jets or everyone in the family is going to get customized Christmas presents this year. While the cost adds up, it's art! And an experience at the same time. While others are creating, there are two free play arcade machines and the store is open and friendly. Highly recommend to all locals and visitors to the big island.

They were out of both the denim passport and the red & denim zipper bag (gah, I happened to like their most popular options). I opted for a cute sky blue round drawstring bag and seven patches. I believe they varied between $3-$7. My total came out to close to $60. Objectively, expensive, but it's a customized souvenir. I love my new bag, it's so cute! I would recommend they have a packaged discount. It would help with upselling more patches and making it for affordable for those who do want to have a bundle.

The sweetest human runs this spot, and each coconut comes pre-painted with plenty of space to write your own message.

Unique fun items!…read more Thanks, Jill! I love my toe thong feet jewelry! These are handmade ankle chain bracelets that's sold in pairs (one for each foot LoL! I thought they worked like an anklet). I love these because they come in a variety of color and charm and if you don't see a particular one you like she will make it for you. Each are custom-made. I chose the small green sea turtles (honu). She has a variety of charms including pineapple, octopus, starfish, plumeria, dragonfly, butterfly, etc. The ankle chain is an elastic stretch and can be adjusted to fit different foot sizes. She also has custom-designed coconut postcards. No picture taking allowed on her designs but my mom purchased one so I included the photo with this review. She chose the Hawaiian Islands design. Popular designs are sports-themed logos. You can also ask for a special custom-designed coconut. Hawaii can mail these custom coconuts at your request, like a postcard! It's a unique gift! Jill's Hot Stuff is one of the vendors at the Ali'i Gardens Marketplace in Kailua Kona. She's super friendly too! Check it out if you're looking for something special and memorable. Review #2298

Her products are consistent, smell amazing and if I close my eyes, I'm standing in the beauty that is Hawaii. I'm grateful for Goodies from Hawaii, so a little bit of the islands stay close. I appreciate this business, and the quality and the care put into each package. I ordered recently and added two masks for today's environment. Not only are they beautiful, they are so well made, and I will order more. Thank you Margy. You are so very appreciated! Mahalo.
