Open Your Own Bar

One fine addition to any "cosmopolitan" home is a home bar. Think: You can entertain your friends, not worry about DWIs, and the Wife will always know where to find you. (This benefit may be open to debate.) This article from Retro gets you started on constructing your new favorite watering hole. It considers the question of where to put the bar (alcove? closet?), and debates the difference between building your own or going out and looking for a vintage bar to install. The site is more text and enticing pictures than construction and material plans, but it's a great way to focus on that most elegant of home improvements. Now where do I find those miniature cocktail umbrellas? Cheers!
