After the holidays have passed, there’s not a lot to look forward to during the long, New England winter. Except sports. There are plenty of basketball, hockey, and football games to enjoy to help us pass the time while we wait for the weather to warm up again. And while it’s fun to go out to your favorite local sports bar to watch the game, you don’t necessarily want to go out every time. So why not bring the sports bar home? With bar sets from Chair Fair and some creative decorating, you can transform your basement into your neighborhood’s favorite hangout.
Here are three ideas to upgrade your basement bar.
Team Colors
Show your team spirit by decorating your basement bar with your team’s colors. Use those colors in the tile on the bar or in the prep area. You can also find custom tiles that feature your team’s logo to add another level of fandom. Paint the walls in your team’s colors or hang photos, signs, and other decor that let your guests know what team you support.
Swivel Stool Bar Sets
Sports bars usually hang their TVs over the bar so the patrons can see them. You, however, may not be able to do that because of where your outlets are. You also may not want to hang your TV over your bar if you have other furniture like couches or armchairs in your basement. But if you or your guests are sitting at your bar while enjoying the game, it’s important to be able to see the TV. The solution? Swivel stools! Just spin around and get a good view of the TV without awkwardly shuffling the furniture around.
Mood Lighting
Once you have the decor and the seating just right, there’s one more thing you need to have the perfect basement bar: lighting. Basements often have harsh lighting that doesn’t really fit the vibe of a home sports bar. Smaller fixtures with soft, warm lighting set the mood that makes your basement feel like your favorite bar.
