Remember the good old days, when you walked into a bar after a long day to get a quick drink with your colleagues? Do you want those days back when your weekend plan included scouting spots with the best happy hour menu? Do you miss your wine and dine routine? We’re right there with ya! During these stay-at-home times, everyone is getting creative in finding a new normal. And, we didn’t want you to miss out on relaxing with a drink in your hand. Introducing our happy-hour-at-home collection to help you set up the best home bar!
Settle In
Unwinding is all about the vibe. An ambiance that invites you to sit for awhile and take a load off. While some prefer sitting on bar stools, others want comfy couches. As long as you’re relaxed, then any spot at home can turn into your little home bar. For easy access, store liquor in a sturdy bar cabinet or bar cart that you can move around the house. You might also want to think about adding a fancy wine cabinet if you’re hosting a virtual happy hour session with your social media clan.

Clink, Clink. Cheers!
Odds are you’ve already stocked up on beverages while at home. Whether you enjoy a chilled glass of wine or prefer your drinks neat, the right wine glasses and cocktail glasses can make each sip taste even better. Even if you get your favorite local establishment to make your drink to-go, you wouldn’t want to drink it from the takeaway glass; it seriously kills the bring-your-bar-home feel. Bonus: you can always bring these glasses out during your next house party (when we’re out of the quarantine situation, that is).

Cover the Basics
We usually miss out on the little things which are important when we get all excited! It would be a shame to forget corkscrews and bottle openers when you plan the best home bar. It would also be handy to have coasters or bar mats. You don’t need to be dealing with condensation stains on your furniture.

Mix it Up
From online cooking sessions to drawing and painting at home, people are finding new hidden hobbies during self-isolation. So, don’t shy away from becoming the best bartender by practicing at home. You just need to equip yourself with some blenders, slush makers, cocktail shakers and ice buckets. Then, look up recipes online and show off your skills on Instagram, just like JCPenney Art Director Karl.

Lazy Libations
Setting up a bar isn’t your style? If you like lounging on the sofa with a beer in hand, we have something for you too! A mini-refrigerator or a cooler can let you enjoy your shows on t.v. without having to get up for a refill. These also will come in handy to keep beverages chill during an impromptu backyard party.
