"L" shaped bar. what do do for the corner?

i have built an "L" shaped bar. it's 42" tall, and the long side of the "L" is 8ft, and the short side is 3.5ft i am facing the bar in your acrylic blocks. i have two panels, one that is 5 blocks high, and 12 blocks wide, (for the 8 ft section) and the other side of the "L" is 5 blocks high, and 6 blocks wide. total of 90 blocks. i have this already all put together, and i have caulked the seams with a white vinyl adhesive caulk, and it looks really good. the blocks are NOT load bearing, the bar was already framed, and skinned in plywood, the blocks are just for looks. what i have no idea of what to do is the corner, where the two walls come together. is there a product that will make this junction look nice? has anyone done this before? i know you don't sell corner blocks, and i already read that you discourage using glass blocks with your blocks, but i don't know what else to do? the blocks i used are the 8x8x3 clear wave blocks. thanks brian

Hi Brian, Congratulation on a great job, There are two options: 1) we have a 90 deg corner that is used with are pre-framed panel not to be use with the loose blocks. But since, you have already installed and only need it as a decorative piece it might work for you. 2) Use a 4 x 4 post of wood and then paint it to match the frame. Well there you have it, Good luck. If you have any questions or would like to order the corner piece, please feel free to contact me at charlie@acrylicblocks4less.com ---------- Thank You!
