When we bought our house, the downstairs area had a bar area, but was not really being used as a bar. While we still don't use the area as most do with a bar, we have dressed up the area over time and added faux stone on the front and side,
This was the original look of the bar when we first bought the house.
At this point, we had fixed up the dowstairs living area and set up bar stools.
Later on we painted the front of the bar area with green paint to match the trim that we used in the downstairs.
We added the fiberglass stone panels to the front and side of the bar to give it a much nicer look.
