While there are certainly a few must-haves, you&#8217;re free to design and build a custom bar any way you see fit. If you&#8217;re in doubt or need a bit of help with the build, don&#8217;t hesitate to call in a DIY-ing friend or family member, or hire an expert. <\/li>\n<li class=\"none\">No matter how you do it, this project will give you a real sense of pride every time you concoct your signature cocktail. You can purchase a pre-built bar cabinet at your local or online furniture store, but for those who want to truly DIY, here are a few important details you&#8217;ll need to consider. <\/li>\n<li class=\"contentcomments\" id=\"2bnd\">\n<h4>Bar Dimensions:  <span><a href=\"\" onclick=\"scrollToElement('#2nd',500); return false;\">[&nbsp;scroll back up&nbsp;]<\/a><\/span><\/h4>\n<ul class=\"post4 dash line hheader\">\n<li class=\"hheader first\">\n<h5>Bar height:<\/h5>\n<p>Your bar should be 42 inches high with an overhang of at least 8 inches.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h5>Bar width:<\/h5>\n<p>The average bar top is between 16 and 20 inches wide, but you can always make yours wider if you have the room or narrower if you don&#8217;t.<\/li>\n<li class=\"last\">\n<h5>Barstool height:<\/h5>\n<p>Standard barstools are typically 30-inches tall, but it&#8217;s best to look for stools after you build the bar to ensure a proper fit.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"contentcomments\" id=\"2cnd\">\n<h4>Materials:<\/h4>\n<ul class=\"post4 dash line hheader\">\n<li class=\"first\">\n<h5>Bar top:<\/h5>\n<p>Here&#8217;s where you can get super creative. You have endless choices for the finished top of your bar, including wood, stone, tile, and stainless steel. You can also:<\/p>\n<ol style=\"margin-top: -10px; margin-bottom: 50px\">\n<li style=\"list-style: none !important\">Build a shallow frame, fill it  with anything imaginable \u2014 pennies, poker chips, poppies \u2014 and encase it in  clear resin. <\/li>\n<li style=\"list-style: none !important\">Pour a concrete top. You can embed  it with broken glass, dye or etch it, or polish it to a high shine \u2014 or all of  the above.<\/li>\n<li style=\"list-style: none !important\">Construct a top from reclaimed  barnwood, an old bowling alley floor, or a vintage formica countertop.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h5>Bar molding:<\/h5>\n<p>Depending on the construction and style, molding can make a bar look finished and attractive. Your best bet is pre-cut molding, which you can stain or paint.<\/li>\n<li class=\"last\">\n<h5>Bar front:<\/h5>\n<p>Like the bar top, the front of the bar can be just about anything \u2014 try galvanized steel for a modern, industrial look; tin ceiling tiles for a vintage vibe; fabric for a warm, cozy feel; or DIY-stained glass made with plexiglass panels and stained-glass paints and lit from behind.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"contentcomments\" id=\"2dnd\">\n<h4>Tools:<\/h4>\n<p>Before you start building, make sure you  have all the <a href=\"https:\/\/porch.com\/resource\/most-dangerous-tools\">tools  and fasteners<\/a> you&#8217;ll need. That list may include the following:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"post4 dash line hheader\">\n<li>Miter saw, table saw, circular  saw, and\/or jigsaw.<\/li>\n<li>Drill and wood or metal screws. <\/li>\n<li>Nail gun and nails.<\/li>\n<li>Hammer and finishing nails.<\/li>\n<li>Level, tape measure, pencil, and  T-square or carpenter square.<\/li>\n<li>Hand sander and sanding paper.<\/li>\n<li>Adhesive and caulk gun.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"contentcomments\" id=\"2end\">\n<h4>Don&#8217;t forget the must-have safety gear!:<\/h4>\n<ul class=\"post4 dash line\">\n<li>Gloves for hauling wood and heavy  things.<\/li>\n<li>Protective eyewear for using power  tools.<\/li>\n<li>Ear plugs for using loud saws.<\/li>\n<li>A first-aid kit, just in case. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"scrolldown\">\n<p class=\"graytext margin share mobiledisplay\">Quik scroll to next topic about designing the perfect home bar &#8230;<\/p>\n<div class=\"blog_scroll content\"><a href=\"\" onclick=\"scrollToElement('#3rd',500);

Stools with a footrest are even better. Swivel bar stools make it easy for people to rotate and enjoy great conversations. <\/p>\n<p>If you need extra storage, a separate bar cabinet is another great addition to your bar area. And if your bar area is large, populate it with loungey furniture. <\/li>\n<li class=\"hheader\">\n<h5>The right lighting<\/h5>\n<p>You don&#8217;t want your bar area lit by overhead fluorescent lights, no sir. Give your bar area a moodier vibe with lamps, pendant lights, or even color-changing LED string lights. <\/li>\n<li class=\"hheader\">\n<h5>Music<\/h5>\n<p>Set the right mood, and keep the party going with music. Whether you prefer an old-school record player or want to pair your phone to your wireless speaker, get it all set up before your first shindig.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li class=\"hheader\">\n<h5>Glassware<\/h5>\n<p>Stock your bar with a variety of glassware, such as beer steins and pint glasses for your favorite brews, low-ball and highball glasses for spirits, and shot glasses for shooters. If you can trust yourself and your guests with stemmed drinkware, hang your wine and champagne glasses upside down from the bar if you can. <\/p>\n<p>If you doubt, they&#8217;d still be upright by the end of the night, opt for stemless, egg-shaped glasses for the wine and bubbly.<\/li>\n<li class=\"hheader\">\n<h5>Mixology Tools<\/h5>\n<p>To properly make cocktails, you&#8217;ll need a few essential mixing tools. Stock your bar with a mixing glass, shaker, jigger, and aHawthorne strainer. A hand juicer is great for cocktails that include fresh citrus, while a nice vegetable peeler is great for garnishes. <\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t forget the bottle opener and wine bottle opener. Throw in an ice bucket if you want to avoid trips from the bar to the fridge and back.<\/li>\n<li class=\"hheader last\">\n<h5>Spirits<\/h5>\n<p>Keep things fresh and exciting by stocking your bar with a variety of spirits, including a good bottle of rum, vodka, tequila, brandy, Scotch, gin, and bourbon and your favorite mixers. If you&#8217;re on a budget, start with a couple of your favorite liquors, and grow your bar from the basics as time goes on. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"scrolldown\">\n<p class=\"graytext margin share mobiledisplay\">Quik scroll to next topic about designing the perfect home bar &#8230;<\/p>\n<div class=\"blog_scroll content\"><a href=\"\" onclick=\"scrollToElement('#4th',500); return false;\"><img src=\"\/images\/icons\/special-deal.png\" alt=\"scroll page\" class=\"item-scroll\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"belowscroll\">\n<p class=\"tagbreak productbot notebox\"><span class=\"imgbrackleftnote\"><\/span>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ideas to view and compare from the <a href=\"\" onclick=\"scrollToElement('#3rd',500); return false;\">photo above<\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<span class=\"imgbrackrightnote\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"tagcloud content\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/s?k=mixology+tools&#038;i=garden&#038;tag=lifeplanning-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">mixology tools<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/s?k=bar+stools&#038;i=garden&#038;tag=lifeplanning-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">bar stools<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/s?k=bar+lighting&#038;i=tools&#038;tag=lifeplanning-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">bar lighting<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- shop script --><\/p>\n<table id=\"tb2SPEC2\" class=\"dataGrid blog ref double topbloc more75\">\n<tbody>\n<tr class=\"tabletitle\">\n<td colspan=\"2\" class=\"novwhite tabletitle\">Supporting Resources (opens new win)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"spacershim\"><\/td>\n<td class=\"spacershim\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"novwhite question\"><\/td>\n<td class=\"answer\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.esquire.com\/food-drink\/bars\/g14299846\/basic-bar-supplies-tools-ingredients\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">WHAT: supplies needed for home bar<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"height: 10px\"><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"novwhite topic\"><\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thespruceeats.com\/essential-distilled-spirits-and-mixers-760741\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">IMAGES: home bar essentials<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"height: 10px\"><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"novwhite film\"><\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/_UFiGai-8RA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">YOUTUBE: 10 bar tool essentials<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><!----------- fourth section --------------------------------------------------><\/p>\n<p class=\"otherimage\" id=\"4th\">fourth &#8220;photo remodeling&#8221; idea<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.letsrenovate.com\/ideas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/homebar_04.jpg\" alt=\"designing the perfect home bar\" width=\"1503\" height=\"1002\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-32599\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.letsrenovate.com\/ideas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/homebar_04.jpg 1503w, https:\/\/www.letsrenovate.com\/ideas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/homebar_04-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.letsrenovate.com\/ideas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/homebar_04-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.letsrenovate.com\/ideas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/homebar_04-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1503px) 100vw, 1503px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"nextimage pic\"><a href=\"\" onclick=\"scrollToElement('#5th',500); return false;\"><img src=\"\/images\/icons\/nextimage.png\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p class=\"creditimage\">copyright image by <a href=\"https:\/\/elements.envato.com\/close-up-image-of-a-wine-glasses-hanging-in-the-ba-J2AJPAR\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">envato.com<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"infoarticle\">\n<h2>Bar Storage<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Notes:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"margin-top: -30px;\">\n<li>Make sure that your home bar has the proper storage to hold and protect your tools, bottles, and drinkware.
