Thanks Tikiville, TikiSkip, LLT, Babs and Tiki G, I appreciate all the nice comments. It really is something to see in person, it's massive and it was never really supposed to be like this, but when Ben comes over, we just go crazy adding and doing.....I really love it! Thank you all for the comments and to Ben for the fabulous work and design!
Amy

Just got the ok to post the pic's of the lights I made for the Tree house.
Made the first set some time ago.
And just sent out five more of the barrels
Most of the first batch went to the tea shop.
That kinda freaked me out, Like now all granola tea types are gonna want tea lights.
All of the barrels are linned with copper but still need kinda low watt bulbs. 25 watt.
Amy thanks for making me think outside of the tiki bar box.
Next?

I forgot to add one thing.
These lights are called Boylan Barrels.
They are named after Amy.
16 of them have been made to date.
Amy has 15 of them.
Thanks Amy !!!

Those barrel lights are WAY cool! I'm sure I could use those wall sconces too! Nice work all! Oh, funny cartoon - hey, when life gives you tiny tiki huts, make TP holders (or bird houses!)

Wow and wow! So amazing! The Swiss Family Treehouse has nothing on you! I especially love the rum barrel runner! Nice work guys! Some day, when I can afford my own place, I hope its half as cool.

Thanks Kris, I had big help from Ben, it was a big project, we had extra help from locals Carson, Art and Herk and Rich. The plumbling is finished this weekend, beds are in, shower working, and yes Ben! the toilet is hooked up!
Skip's lamps and lights are amazing, He designed these after a phone call, he is the best! thanks Skip, Many other items by TC artists, I think Buzz has some stuff coming too
All is ready for spring. Thank you all again for the great comments!
