Baby Whippy (Teal) by Tiki tOny
(teal, with blue eyes, and lavender interior)
From Tiki tOny:
Little Baby Whippy was born about a decade ago when Alene and I started going to the land of enchantment and the sweet pineapple whip dessert was a cool tropical escape from the summer heat. I drew this on a drink coaster one evening in my shack back in 2014 and he was a popular little fella, as he ended up in paintings, and drawings for fans! I’ve made a mug of the toucan, then the pineapple, then the parrot, and low and behold, the last from this old coaster drawing is Baby Whippy!!!
LostTikiGirl saw my old cute Whippy drawings and asked for a version of it with a pineapple base, and instead of just drawing it out, that day, I happened to be in the beachcomber shack, so I carved one out for her!
From there, I drew out the version you see here as a mug and worked with my buddy Thor who sculpted the ultimate mug of cuteness!
Baby Whippy needs only love and attention and maybe a little snuggle every once in a while, but more than anything, he’s here to bring you a bit of joy and happiness!

What are “Whoopsies”?
This only applies to those who select 'Whoopsies' as an option when ordering.
During production, sometimes 'Whoopsies!' happen. These mugs we still consider sellable and usable, but we’ve previously held them back from shipping for often very small and obscure reasons that most people wouldn’t notice. While all of our mugs are hand made and unique, some are a little more unique than others. We’ve had many people inquire about mugs that we’ve not had in-stock for awhile, so we thought this could be a good way to get some mugs that we no longer produce into the hands of those who really want them, and to make room on our shelves for new mugs that we’ve got in the works.
Each of these tiki mugs will have one or more of these, or other, small issues: glaze somewhere unintended, tiny black dots from particles in the kiln, glaze smudges, superficial cracks that don’t affect the integrity of the mug, variation in color or glaze texture, cleanup issues, etc. As each mugs issues vary and are unique, they aren’t reflected in pictures here. Mugs are being sold in as-is condition. While we reserve the right to permanently mark mugs on bottom, out of sight, to indicate they're part of this group, this set will not be marked. Exchanges for alternate 'Whoopsie!' mugs will be allowed if buyer pays shipping costs. Mugs will not arrive cracked (excludes superficial ‘cracks’).
“Whoopsie” mugs are offered at discounted price.
