Awesome!!!! I really like the portholes on the ceiling, makes it look like the shipwreck is on its side and your bar is inside it Very cool details you have throughout, there's really a lot of thought in there!

We have been to Blakes bar many times.
They had us over last week and I gota say
he did a great job on it!!!
He is a great bartender as well.
The starfish thing is from the Kahiki.
Most of the lights were mounted to the ceiling that way
in the Kahiki.
GREAT job Blake!!!

i realy love the look of this bar, all the hanging plants and things the fountain , the choice of material for the furnature , give it a very 'lush' atmosphere. the shipwreck ceiling is realy neat, its like a tikibar built in an old shipwreck that the jungle grew into

It's been a while since I posted new photos of my Bahooka
Lights in bar at night (decahedron lamp came from estate sale of person who was voice of Snow White!)
I blocked out windows in bar with screens to give effect of looking out at moon on ocean...
Here is the original photo I took it from...
Here is a panoramic of the 4 windows
New hanging lamp from Chicago (Red Lava style lamp)
Moai keeping guard outside of tiki bar
Hula Homers blessing my latest cocktail at feet of Hawaiian god
More drinks in bar
I will add more photos as progress /evolution continues...

Pardon my french but shit!!! You have some rad stuff. All those lamps and your chairs you scored from Kahiki. That porthole light on your ceiling is awesome . Im loving this as you can tell.
