How to Decorate a Man Cave
First of all, if you’re a man, and you’re dreaming of having your very own man cave, you’re well advised to make it comfortable and welcoming for everyone in your family. If not, you might get kinda lonely.
That means how you decorate your man cave is crucial to how much enjoyment you get from it. With the right man cave ideas, you can make your space to your liking, and to everyone else’s too.
Before you get down to decorating, you need to find the right place in the house. Some combine their man cave with a home office, but that can limit your options. At the other end of the spectrum, a basement man cave can have almost limitless potential, including options like a ping pong table, pool table, or even a man-cave bar.
4 Man Cave Design Ideas
Once you’ve found the right space, it’s time to put on your interior design hat and get to work decorating your man cave.
- A Leather Couch – If nothing else, the modern man cave is a comfortable place to be. That means comfortable seating for everyone to watch the game. Consider a mix of seating options, including bar stools, with folding chairs at the ready for the really big games. But anchor them all with a large leather power-reclining sectional.
- TV/Gaming Stand – We’re not even mentioning that you will have the largest widescreen TV your budget and eyes can handle. But where you put it is key to enjoying everything it has to offer. This transitional black TV stand has room for your cable box, and more than one gaming console, as well as places to keep all the TV remotes and gaming controllers out of sight when they’re not in use.
- Multifunction Coffee Table – You can make your man cave more versatile, able to be the venue for any occasion, with this lift-top occasional table. The lift top raises for eating or table games, while you can store the games, or your iPad, in the handy storage drawers.
- Indulge Your Interests – Hey, just because you’re welcoming everyone into your man cave doesn’t mean you can’t express yourself. Sports memorabilia, like autographed baseball bats, are a great addition to the room. But you can also add movie posters, antiques, woodworking projects you’ve completed, anything you are interested in that you want to share with others.
