Toast to the Irish at Home! Add a Bar to Your Whole Home Remodel.

As you raise your glass this St. Patrick’s Day, reflect on how lovely ‘tis to have a bar in your own home for entertaining and special occasions. If you enjoy welcoming friends and family for gatherings and special occasions, a bar is a convenient and inspiring element of your whole home remodel. Consider the following when planning for a bar in your home:

How Will Your Guests Gather?
Consider where you would like to place your bar. Does the living area or the kitchen area make more sense? If you use an outdoor living area to entertain, you may want to plan your bar so there is both indoor and outdoor access. Also think about whether or not you want to accommodate seating.

Storing Libations and Accessories
A centerpiece bar requires excellent organization to keep your living area clutter-free when the bar is not in use. Working with a professional designer, envision which liquors and accessories you will likely use most often to plan the best storage and display methods.
