The Kona Luanii, Denver, CO - Home Tiki Bars

Z ZuluMagoo Tiki Socialite Denver, CO Joined: Jun 26, 2002 Posts: 492	Z ZuluMagoo Posted posted on Sun, Mar 25, 2007 8:59 PM The waterfall (Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room tribute corner) is finished. I added a few generic everyday tiki torches to the display, but altered them slightly to look better. My friend the handheld blow torch did a wonderful job of distressing the poles. I used my Dremel with a cutting wheel to cut off the wick screw on top of the canister. Then I painted the bottom of a ficker candle black and just set it on top of the canister. With the lights dimmed down, it is a very realistic effect and looks great. Then I finished off with a few lengths of twine glued with seashells. Making progress, lots more to do. Atmospheric pics sans camera flash to follow after I have finished the lighting of the bar.
