Who doesn’t like a relaxed evening at home sometimes? While going out to a bar or restaurant is nice, having your own cocktail-making essentials at home can be even better. This way, you have everything you need to make your favorite drink whenever you want, whether you don’t feel like going out, the weather’s bad, or you want to save money.
Setting up a home bar might seem like it needs a lot of stuff and space, but you don’t need much. Even a small shelf or table can work. You’ll see from the examples below that you can create a cool drink station in a tiny spot. And the best part is you can easily move it around your home, especially since many homes have spaces that serve different purposes. So why wait? Get a tray and start making your own stylish bar setup now.
Drink Corner
An empty corner is perfect for making a little bar area. You can decorate it with art that matches the vibe you want—just because you’re at home doesn’t mean you can’t bring a bit of the bar atmosphere to your space.
Simple Shelves
Putting up open shelves in your kitchen is a smart way to use empty walls and show off your cooking stuff, including your favorite wine and liquor bottles. This simple setup lets you see everything easily, so you can grab what you need whenever you want.
Tray Chic
You can transform any side table into a bar by adding a tray. This keeps bottles and glasses organized in a stylish way. To recreate this look, you can make your own abstract artwork to hang above the table. Making your own art is simple and adds a personal touch to your space.
Sideboard Setup
A small tray with liquor bottles on the dining room sideboard can be put away easily after the party. Using a tray helps make even small displays look organized and stylish.
Cute Cubbies
A wall shelf with compartments can help you create a bar area anywhere and stay organized. This gold style is modern and practical.
