Our tiki bar is a work in progress, but we got a lot done this year. Last year it was a yard full of dirt and a patio full of dusty lawn furniture. It's coming along slowly. Here are some pics.
This is the hot tub corner and the tiki we call 'slim shady'.

Love the atmosphere in the pool area. I'll bet it's beautiful when lit at night.
Where did you find the mural on the wall? Did you paint it? Really cool.

Yes, the night lighting looks cool. The mural was actually a lucky find. A co-worker said a relative was renovating an old basement/tiki bar and they were going to trash this mural. She said it was an older couple that built the bar and the style looks very mid-century. I paid 40 bucks for shipping and voila! I am currently making some faux bamboo to frame the second half of the mural. The mural was origally about 16 feet wide by 5 feet high but I had to cut it in half.

Very cool! Did they paint it themselves or was it a store bought item?

I bought some clear shellac, and I was going to coat it for protection. I never met the owners of the mural but it is signed.
