I recently moved into a new house and the master bedroom is much larger than the old one and I had this wall that was just bare:
So I says to myself "bar and fireplace". It sounded reasonable as I'm a rational kinda guy. I spent time looking for a liquor cabinet that might fit the bill to no avail. Either nothing looked good or it was some extremely expensive antique thing. Then inspiration struck and I settled on both modern and modular.
Installed the "bar" surface first. Really it's a glass DVD player shelf. I put it at the same height as the top of my dresser which I had been keeping a few glasses and bottles on:
Next was a surface mount 1500W LED fireplace below the bar:
A quick mock-up of the liquor bottle holders that were really some wine bottle holders I found:
Always do a mock-up first because I did spread them out more before the final installation:
Another mock-up for the glass holders:
And like the bottle holders some changes were made before the final install:
Christened the new setup with my favorite, Navarre Souvenir Imperial Grande Champagne Cognac:
I couldn't be happier and I have an app on my phone that runs the fireplace:
Now I'm on the hunt for some artwork or a mirror to go above the bar and between the bottles & glasses. Perhaps something with a pipe in it?
