Thanks everyone! I seem to be doing this out of order, since I already posted the finished product above, I'll go ahead and post the pre-construction and construction photos here. I had to dig deep in my hard drive but found some, it's fun to look back, while I sit at the bar with a cocktail!

This first shot is looking from the stairs towards where the couch now sits (the basement was a mess!)...

This is more or less the same shot during construction...

Looking towards the wall with the Witco bar and artwork...

...during construction...

This couch is sitting where the bar stools now sit, I cut a big hole in that bedroom wall, which became the back-bar area...



So much fun!


Looking into the back-bar area...

The bar top is made of wood from pallets, it now has a nice shiny coat of polyurethane on it...

I'm going to dig around, I think have more photos somewhere for another post.

I appreciate all the feedback so far. Everything I know about building my tiki bar I learned right here at Tiki Central, so I'm very grateful to all of you who shared so generously and I'm eager to contribute to this community!
