Fun Find Friday #5

The basement in this house will be Joe's domain.  At first I wasn't sure how I would decorate this "man cave" thing. After a few clicks and scrolls through Pinterest and Houzz, I knew exactly what would fit Joe. As most men, Joe LOVES sports. If Sports Center is on in a 50 yard radius, we have lost him until the next commercial break. I want to give him the sports loving cave he deserves. I am thinking vintage Seattle Mariners and Seahawks accessories with an industrial/rustic sports bar feel.

When we were discussing the layout of the basement bar, we were trying to decide at what height to make it. Counter height or bar height. Though we already have the counter height stools to furnish this future bar, a man needs to "belly up" to a bar. (Not hip up) Coming from Florida, outdoor living is equal to basement living in Washington. It is cheap and easy added square footage. Every member of my family has built a bar in their back yard. In fact, I am pretty sure my dad built his bar before we even had beds in our house. From that experience I learned, a man needs a place to belly up!

So Belly Up it is! Now I needed to find bar height stools. No problem here when it comes to finding chairs. More on my chair addiction later. I love looking for cool chairs.

Contemporary Bar Stools And Counter Stools

With a little patience and a lot of looking, I found exactly what I wanted on Craigslist. I found 3 Crate & Barrel bar height aluminum stools for the same price of one new chair! I am in love with them and think they will bring the vintage sports bar look to Joe's man cave.
