Here are three photos, I just found, of my Tiki Bar I built from mostly trash in 2002, when I was in college. The bar is made from sheets of particle board (broken ikea furniture). The shelf/cabinet was a dresser flipped upside down and cut in half (drawers not included). The “thatch” were beach mats our friend acquired at his place of work (the dollar store). The chairs were great atomic/mid century broken chairs that i build bases from scrap wood. The fantastic Budweiser hurricane lamps came out of a dumpster behind the beer distributer. All items not scavenged from the streets of our Oakland neighborhood in Pittsburgh, PA were great vintage Tiki mugs I bought at thrift stores for 6 years leading up to the construction of this bar. Many of my best items were not out do to the nature of this college house. If I find more I will post them. Sorry for the white walls, again college rental.
