A makeshift thatch roof over the bar area and some string lighting along the top. Pic looks ALOT brighter than actual lighting in the room. I threw this together pretty quick for a party that was coming up sooner than I could do it like I wanted to do it--so there you have it--not too bad. The dark side of the room-at least the way it is now. I still need to adjust some lighting--more in some areas--less in other areas. Picked up the sofa and table at a yard sale for 50bx. Bought the uphlstry material at a local fabric joint for about 1/2 price, I believe. Our friend Norine did the upholstery work for us-Thanx-I owe you many crabs --Norine-crab queen! The ole Marquesan canoe piece I did awhile back. Still needs to be hung on the wall somewhere. Now it's sitting on a weird looking table I 'harvested' from the dumpster of an Indonesian/Chinese import furniture biz that closed down. (along with the ottoman/stool looking piece in background) When the furn. store was open, the manager told me that alot of the furn was built from stuff like old oxe carts, house ornaments--basically anything that was decorative but otherwise considered junk.
