Styling a home bar for a gracious entertaining is as important as the result of the cocktails you create. As I’m sure most people know, there are two types of home bar. Wet bar is a planned built-in station with sink for quickly washing glasses and fresh ingredients. A wet bar also provides the necessary water pipes for what I believe is the king of cocktail mixing; an ice maker. Whichever home bar you decide to have here are these stylish home bar ideas and how to style a home bar.
A Dry bar however is a lot simpler and easier to set up and style. It can easily be arranged in many different ways and areas of the home. It can be as easy as setting up a tray on top of a sideboard and use the drawers of the sideboard for storing glasses and home bar tools. As you can see in the image above the sideboard which belongs to Aerin Lauder, works as a perfect surface for displaying a few drinks and glasses.
