‘How to style’ - How to create the perfect home bar in 5 steps
Everyone loves a house party, so why not follow these 5 easy steps to create your perfect home bar: 1. set the scene
Choose the perfect location in your house for the bar, consider proximity to the kitchen and enough space for guests to enjoy themselves and play classic bar games in the room – like pool or darts. 
2. sexy furniture
Select the right bar furniture, we love these stools covered in Tucsan Lullaby fabric by Poodle and Blonde [buy here].
The bar design itself should ooze opulence – choose dark colours, neutral materials like marble, warm metals, smooth curves. 
3. stock up
Always make sure you are ready for any drink request, so cover the basics with vodka, whisky, rum, tequila and gin and don’t forget - always remember to have the right accompanying glasses.
Then go extra with the liquers, mixers, bitters ready for your cocktail requests. 
4. Finishing touches
Now your bar is looking beautiful and well stocked, it’s time to think more about the function - so don’t forget bar tools and accessories like tongs and a gorgeous ice bucket. Also make sure to have a range of garnishes like citrus fruits, cherries, herbs and plenty of ice. Lastly, choose a beautiful tray or board to keep things neat. 5. create the right ambience
A bar is not complete without the right ambiance, especially lighting. Consider book ending the bar with portable lights. We love the Melt portable LED lights from Tom Dixon [buy here]. Also think about some dimmable chic wall sconces from Kelly Wearstler [buy here]. Make sure to add an evening fragrance and music to set the mood.Now, it’s time to build a guest list!
