Episode 40 of A Moment of Tiki is now live amongst the interwebz! Lighting can make or break a home tiki bar, but sometimes crafting tiki lighting from scratch isn't in the cards. In that case, repurposing found lighting from thrift stores, garage sales or flea markets is a viable alternative--if you keep your eyes peeled. With a little bit of creativity, found lamps can be converted into theme-appropriate lighting fixtures that are often easy on the bank account. In this case, I found an older rattan table lamp at a thrift shop at a bargain price. It wasn't tiki, but almost anything involving rattan is halfway to the South Pacific already. By seeing the potential in it, I was able to easily convert it into a worthy addition to my home bar!
