If you love a trip to your local pub's beer garden in the summer, why not create one you can enjoy in the comfort of your own home? The Wooden Shiplap Garden Bar allows you to do just that. Coming as a blank canvas, this bar can be decorated to suit your tastes and preferences perfectly. We’ve compiled a few ideas and suggestions to help inspire.
Make it feel like you’re on holiday all the time by creating your own tiki-style, club Tropicana bar. Start by painting the bar, installing some shelving for your drinks and glasses, and then add some spirit dispensers to the wall to really give it that bar feeling. Be sure to incorporate lots of fun and colourful decorative pieces such as flamingos, pineapples, bright paper fans, cactus ornaments and any other exciting decorations you fancy. Finish by surrounding your bar with large ferns, colourful chairs, and bold blankets to really bring the look together.
Modern and classy, a garden gin bar is a great way to unwind with friends after a long week. You can paint the bar a dark colour to create a sophisticated and glam vibe or leave it natural and let the accessories do the talking. Gin glasses, a wire fruit bowl for lemons and limes, a cocktail shaker, straws, and ice buckets are a must-have for any gin bar. Make sure you’ve created a soft and welcoming atmosphere by incorporating some blankets, cushions, plants and bunting into the décor. You’ll need space to store all your mixers and gin, so shelves are essential. Shelves with space to store bottles on top and your glasses below would be ideal for this bar, as you can proudly display all the gorgeous gins you’ve collected.
Do you love to try out new craft larger and ales with friends? Why not create your own bar dedicated to your favourite drink. Keeping a lot of wooden details is perfect for this theme, so you don’t even need to worry about painting the bar! Start by adding in a couple of shelves to store glasses and snacks, and, if you've got electricity out there, fridges to keep your beers cold. Then get to decorating. Natural features are perfect for keeping a coherent look, wooden trays and snack bowls are perfect for serving up crisps and nuts for friends, wooden bar stools are ideal for creating an authentic bar experience and you can perfectly complete your bar by placing some real or artificial plants on and around the bar. You can add some colourful bunting and cushions if you want to liven up the look, or keep it how it is for a more stripped-back look.
After all the hard work is done, you get to relax and unwind whilst soaking up some rays in the privacy of your own garden. If none of these ideas suit your style, then come up with your own! The possibilities really are endless with the Wooden Shiplap Garden Bar.
