A man cave for todays family<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This week we\u2019re looking at not a kitchen, but rather a sports-themed party room, ostensibly sometimes referred to as a finished basement or the ULTIMATE man cave. So batten down the hatches, Matey’s while we walk the underground plank during this somehow decidedly pirate-tinged version of \u2018Mondays with Mike\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Really, this is a \u2018Family Cave\u2019 if ever there was. Check out the far right \u2018table for two\u2019. You\u2019d be forgiven for thinking that this particular table might get \u2018waited on\u2019 by staff. It reminds me of one of those cocktail tables where folks (read: couples) who have things they need to get of their chests sit, regardless of the \u2018sporting event of the century\u2019 currently being broadcast mere feet away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you look closely, you can surely connect the dots to figure out the team-centric theme they chose here. Sports fan or not, this is one rock and roll-ready bar. topped with fabulous red laminate.<\/a> Just look at those intelligently placed overhead right and left speakers. You might\u2019ve thought you were in a home theater here\u2026.look a bit closer towards the TV, you kind of are!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dimmable LED puck lighting<\/a> utilized here contributes greatly to setting the mood and is tunable for that subdued or festive lighting hue. Hardware-wise, the 2 varieties of pulls<\/a> chosen for these cabinets speak of a modern design aesthetic combined with a heavy duty industrial feel, leaving a bit more surface area for those sweet finishes to be seen\u2026and grasped! I\u2019ve said it before, but if you could see behind these cabinet doors and drawers, you\u2019d witness an unbelievable assortment of specialized organizers <\/a>from Rev-A-Shelf + other top-shelf manufacturers (you see what I did there?). These products are available in endless variations, materials, finishes, etc. at www.WoodworkerExpress.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once again this week, I sincerely appreciate your time and attention, but it\u2019s indeed time to skedaddle\u2026as you well know, those buccaneers give no quarter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
