Probably the size of the entire previous apartment

So I really like what Boutiki did on his basement bar and trust his actions as the be all end all of sorts. Before he laid down all that beautiful aged bamboo, he painted his walls black. I plan to do bamboo in the future (where the black is painted) but before then, I like the black paint verses what use to be there and will enjoy that for a while. Change is good or at least different.

So the indent in the room where the built-in lays all got some sort of black treatment. Full lengh blonde behind the bar and chair rail height the rest. I feel thinking about these steps over time while trying out the layout, gives a clearer idea of how you really want things. I used a laser to mark the tape lines and it came out wonderful.

and the thread title is a bar or two and here is the other women.

There is a story with everything I have but this is those Mai Kai Target bamboo bar. I came in a super heavy box and was a Christmas gift like three years ago. The greatest Christmas ever (GOT OTHER TIKI ITEMS TOO)This box sat un open all that time at my parents house. A Christmas gift just sitting there unopened for all that time. The lights too were still in their box.

The best part is that most tiki collectors have those vintage looking bar items and those FUN tiki bar items, so I can display them both cause I have the best of both worlds. OH Yeah. Forgot to tell ya that the wife put this bar together!!!

*And just got a call that Poker Night is at my house next Friday.
