Do you have a web page showing this aforementioned bar? See, the missus and I run a little website over at http://www.konakai.com that has a mess of exotic tiki links on it, some more useful than others. It's a guide of sorts, really. Anyhow, we were talking things over with the little monkeys that keep the site up to date, and they thought it'd be swell to have a sub-section that links to all of the spectacular home tiki bars that we're certain are out there in the world. So, if you've got a home tiki bar, and you've got pictures and info about it somewhere on a fairly stable web page, we want to know about it. Post your link here, or drop us a line at [email protected]. You'll be glad you did... And now, back to the rest of your regularly scheduled chatting... [ Edited by: kongtiki on 2002-06-13 13:35 ]

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.
