Help with Tiki Bar

[parrotheadstueby]

Sorry if this is an repeat question-I am looking for a small Tiki Bar for outside-about 2 feet wide 4-5 feet long and about 7' or so high--if anybody knows where to get one or build something like that please let me know--the ones I found online were all about $1000

If you are somewhat handy, build your own. I did, it's about 4' x 10' with a palm frond roof varnished bat-top and 5 bamboo chairs.

The whole thing cost me about $1,000.00, and a good chunk of that were the chairs.

I can forward you pictures if you'd like for scale.

Pics and and a list of materials you chose would be great-maybe a winter project-what did you treat th ematerial in so you could leave it outside?

I used pressure treated wood and varnished the bar-top a few times to seal it. I'm trying to put a couple of coats on every year to add thickness as well.

As for all season, I haven't kept it open through the winter, usually I close it up before the first snow. It basically becomes a big shed. I drape a large tarp over the top, store the yard furniture inside, and then secure the tarp with bungees, so I can get in easily if need be. After a snow, I'll brush most of it off the top to reduce any stress on the roof. I also remove the palms and store them in the basement, I was concerned about them getting funky under the tarp.
