Regardless of how you enjoy your libations of choice (you deserve it!), always helps to set the mood by stepping up your home bar game with the perfect barware, bar accessories, and glasses, as well as a bar cart or bar cabinet to complement the overall look of your interior design. If you’re unsure about picking out home bar furnishings and finishing touches, it never hurts to consult an e-designer.
Read on for top tips on decking out your home bar from our team of interior design experts. Cheers!
The first step to making sure that your ultimate night in at your home bar is a success is to order all the essentials you need. This means having all of your beverages, mixers, and garnishes in full supply, but it also means investing in barware like shakers, muddlers, stir sticks, ice buckets, and decanters.
Using premium barware will make you feel fancy and make your night in feel like a special treat and also serves as a design element in and of itself. Think geometric decanters, stylish glassware, and gilded bar tools, as well as ample wine storage, wine glasses, and an on-trend liquor cabinet.
A chic bar cart is the best of both world–it’s a practical piece as well as an eye-catching decor piece. There’s a bar cart out there for just about any interior design style, from rustic to modern classic to industrial. You can also easily situate your bar cart in any room of the house.
You may want a sophisticated bar cart for your dining room and a more casual one for your basement bar or man cave. Regardless, you’ll surely impress your friends and family with the addition of this versatile entertaining essential.
Because most bar carts are lightweight and come complete with wheels, you can bring them out for cocktail hour and then store in the kitchen or dining room when you’re done. Or make them a permanent fixture in your living room or foyer. The choice is yours!
