Have been lurking for about 3yrs and the addiction has taken full hold we are onto the bar after the mugs and the music why fight the tiki in me anymore....So the first thing we did was to enclose the patio with a railing and then the bar its not close to being done as I end up working on it 1 day a week and have very little funds for any projects. The siding of the bar is recycled from a Gypsy Wagon from my Ren Faire days...
The wagon sat behind the garage for years until I got the Tiki bug. I only have a few pics and am much farther along now but the ideas for the bar evolve and continue. Still need bamboo trim probably from pvc pipe. My initial trials with fake bamboo impressed me so it will be aded. Have diceded on a tin roof didsnt want extra fire hazards here and so far hated the look of thatching i bought. Then fountains, sand box behind bar, lighting, bar top,etc etc etc. So here are a few pics more to come soon...

The weather here is very hot in summer 115+ in Redding Ca. so sure im going to have to invest in silk plants. The goal is to have the misters on, the drinks flowing and sitting on the patio as cool as possible surrounded by the sound of water and exotica foliage birds calling in the distance and.........
well you get the point...
