I tried a star generating machine the other day. It's an interesting effect, I'm not sure if I will keep it, but I think I like it. What do you think?

what the duck said.
Sorry, I guess I didn't see your question. It's called "Sky Lite" on Amazon, I think it was around $50 if I remember correctly.
You know how they say your Tiki bar is never finished? I believe it. Here's the latest addition. A gift from one of my Uncles. (that guy has good taste!)
And here is my latest project. I bought some Hawaii postcards and some old black and white photos and put them on the table top. I thought about using the clear resin epoxy but decided on 3 heavy coats of poly. The photos were all pretty thin so it worked out well.
Mahalo for following along!

A good friend dropped this off, Tiki? (I still like it)

That’s a beautiful backyard. I love the palm trees in the background. I can deduce that you’re not in North Dakota. Where be your digs?
I live in the "The West's Most Western Town" Scottsdale, AZ.

Absolutely GORGEOUS! What a great job! I was limited as to what I could do with my home tiki lounge (Paradise Cove) because it's in a rented apartment. But after a year and a half of painstaking work the result was worth it and belies the fact that it is, of necessity, a "temporary" construction. Still, the illusion is pretty convincing, especially when all the special lighting is in play. But, because it's also a bedroom/office, there is no room for a bar!

The 3D thing is very cool! Makes me feel like I'm in your bars! 
I've added a few small(ish) items to the Lava Lounge over the last few months. One in particular I've wanted for a long time, -I never could find one I liked. Here it is, a "jade tile". This one is from the online store at Trader Vics. It's a lot bigger than I envisioned, I had originally wanted to hang it off the wall in some kind of bamboo frame. It's much thicker than I thought the original tiles were, this one is 1.5 inches thick! It has some weight to it also. So I don't think I can hang it and still make it look good. I might just surround it in a wood frame and use it as a conversation piece on the table. Stay tuned to see where I go with this.

My family really gets me... it's a Tiki Bar tree ornament!

I've been reworking the logo for the Lava Lounge. Here's what I've got so far... My next goal is to have some merch produced. Something like swizzles or coasters. Possibly some keychains, who knows?
