Be the host with the most in 2015 and turn your home into a swinging social hub. You don’t need to break the bank to have your own home bar. Here are five tips for what you’ll need – and you’ll still be able to afford mixers at the end of the day.
A mini fridge. You won’t want to clutter up the kitchen fridge with your bar things. Install a little one in your party area and keep it stocked with the basics. There’s a range of bar fridges to choose from to suit your style, whether it’s simple and elegant or quirky and cute.
Ice trays. Keep your guests guessing with a variety of ice trays in different shapes and sizes.
An ice bucket is a great investment and a party essential. Not only is it a classy way to serve ice, it’s also an excellent holder for champagne and wine. Check out the selection of cool ice buckets on PriceCheck to ensure you get one to match your decor or party theme.
The oft-forgotten corkscrew. You’ll need one to open that special bottle of wine you’ve been saving for the right occasion. There’s a whole range of different corkscrews out there – either ones with beautiful and whimsical designs, or the no-frills version that simply gets the job done.
A cocktail set, especially for the summer. Put Tom Cruise to shame by showing off your own behind-the-bar-counter skills. Stock up on a cocktail set and impress your guests by treating them to everything from mojitos to martinis.
