Aloha! Welcome to Shrunken Ed'z - The Bar that Time forgot!

So I totally didn't mean to get bit by the Tiki bug, certainly not as hard as I have been, but I now have a fully fledged speakeasy on my hands! I wish to extend an invite to fellow Tikiphiles!

The story goes like this... My wife and I moved into our new apartment, and were fortunate to have a patio. The problem being it was just grey brick, cold and unwelcoming, it was like a prison cell. The prison cell was actually bigger than both our living room and kitchen combined... too big a space to waste! So I got thinking wtf can I do?

Enter my friend Dave. Yes, everyone has a friend named Dave. Dave and his girlfriend are big tiki lovers, they took me to Trader Sam's for my first ever Tiki bar, and then the following week we absconded to TikiLand Trading.

The gears started to turn and I thought why the heck not make our concrete calamity into a tropical adventureland retreat!

I started in August '19 and am still working on it today. But it's come together quite quickly and I'm proud enough to share the progress with friends... and now as it gets more and more layered I'd be happy to invite the Tiki community down for some select events!

Dying to meet all of you! Dying for any critiki feedback!

See below photos for steps I took and some of how it looks now!

Best Regards,

Edward Bartholomew Rosenfelt
