They apparently specialize in Hawaiian Scrapbooking Supplies.
A Big Island sample appears at left.
Photo Craft, originally based in Honolulu, can be found on the Web at allnaturalaccents.com. The site's operators say they closed the retail store in 2012, but since then have offered their products online. Here's YouTube video link showing one of their fine products.
Closer to OurKonaCondo.com are the following, culled from a Web spin as of this wriiting in Spring of 2013:
There's something about the Hawaiian Islands that inspires people to take pen in hand and capture their thoughts (A real pen fer cryin' out loud, not some beastly gadget!). Those fortunate enough to remember and treasure books are blessed by little discoveries such as the tome pictured above.
"Traveling Hawaiian Byways with Pen and Camera" are extracts from a 1936 logbook by a great American, agricultural marketer and learned man of letters named Ross H. Gast. At the behest of the University of Hawaii, Mr. Gast was among those experts whose goal, according to press accounts he cites, of helping the islanders fashion a self-sustainable food supply.
We picked up this copy of Mr. Gast's reminisces during a tour of the Bishop Museum in Honolulu.
Six months into Gast's assignment, he became manager of the Inter Island Steamship Company Grower Service Department and then eventually returned to California.
In between, we are left with his musings inspired by his boyhood idol Mark Twain, who, he noted first popularized the Hawaiian Islands as a tourist destination while in the employ of the Sacramento Union newspaper in 1866.
Among the book's little gems are the observance that Twain once embarked on a plan to write a novel with Hawaii as its setting, but alas, it was never finished.
Twain's lone opportunity to return to the islands was thwarted in 1895. He had promised to lecture there during the course of a late life assignment to tour Australia, but like other shipmates, was barred from setting foot on the island because of a cholera epidemic.
Twain's wrote in "Following the Equator"that instead he could only gaze at Oahu from offshore: "If I could." Twain wrote, "I would have gone ashore and never left."
Twain died in 1910, without having the opportunity to return to his "Paradise of the Pacific."
The photographer of this postcard picture is "unknown" and from the Bishop Museum collection by Cool Breeze Productions.
It was taken in the late 1800s as residents gathered for "Steamer Day." This weekly occasion was to, naturally enough, meet the steam ships that came to the harbor to drop off supplies and mail.
Everyone wore their Sunday best, residents mingled with passengers and sailers, and words were exchanged about life on the island, the surrounding islands, and the larger world.
One of the structures still recognizeable today from the 100-year-old shot: the Hulihee Palace (now a museum) on the far right.
This is one of those clickable dealies that loads the full-frame shot in a separate page. There, you can read its name is "St. Peter's Catholic Church Kahaluu."
Seeking more about this cool little church, a short hike from Kona Isle on Ali'i Drive in Kona, a Yahoo! search turns up:
No. 1 result. A link to a bunch of eBay kerfuffle. Figures.
Next, though, a link to David Sessions' nice collection of travel photos on Worldisround.com from a March, 2004 Hawaii, Big Island trip that includes his own shot of the church. For a nice relaxing desktop journey to the Big Island and a tourist's eye view of "daily driving trips to resorts, state and national parks, and other scenic areas," the index link starts here. Mahalo for sharing, David.
An obits page from a 2000 edition of the Honolulu Star-Bulletin follows. The modest place of worship is a popular services spot. Not hard to figure out why. The sunset shot by MLP above is worth a thousand words.
Photographer Jan Kaulins' page contains some info on the "little blue church" along with a nicely framed shot. The church, overlooking Kahalu'u Bay, was built in 1889 and its doors never close. This house of God contains less than a dozen wood pews and modest altar.
Go inside around sunrise or sunset, and take in the etched glass window at the back of St. Peter by the sea.
Leave St. Peter's simple little church a different person.
Take a stroll through King Kamehameha's Kona Beach Hotel in downtown Kailua-Kona, and you'll come across a number of displays of Hawaiian history, including this image of the Ahuena Heiau from back in the day, circa 1800.
As the trading company infosite explains, the thatched building served as the king's guarded retreat, where he could keep watch over the bay and upland.
The heiau or temple, was supposedly dedicated to the spirits of learning, arts and healing (though, human sacrifice figured into that dedication, according to knowledgeable historians).
Today, it's kapu, (Hawaiian for "forbidden") except when serving as the centerpiece of the nightly luau.
