You are amassing quite a nice collection there Mudbone! I love the hula girl outfit and story, what a treasure.
I like the look of that bar too. Can't wait to see it all come together.

Thanks guys,working on the bar right now,mounted five tikis and trying to figure out how to light it. DO I use one color or multicolor lights, should I use xmas lights or rope lights or look for another source of light.Thanks for listening.

Personally, I would use the rope lights because they are easier to hide. I never like seeing the light source, just what it is illuminating. There you have it. My two cents!

Thanks Mitch,I took your advise.
TOOK SOME NEW PICS.
Something missing on this lamp so I added a string of shells to the shade.
Worked on the bar,put a coat of beeswax and orange oil on the finish,attached five tikis and put xmas rope lighting under the bar top and in the shelves
Did some work on the fire place,put up reed fence and bamboo trim.
Got this shell lamp at auction,very well done,like it better off then on.Don't know if it going to stay,what do you think?
