Making over your basement into a bar area is a great way to add
a fun room into your house. Of course, you want to be sure to
have a great bar with the appropriate lighting and accessories
but one vital item that you must select carefully are the bar
stools.
Bar stools come in many shapes, sizes, colors and decorating
styles. Whether your bar is a tropical paradise, a fun and funky
retro style or a formal and elegant version of the wine bar
downtown, you are sure to find a stool that matches your décor.
But just finding a stool that looks good isn't enough. You need
to buy bar stools that are comfortable to sit in and are also
the right height for your bar. In addition, you need to know how
many stools to get for that perfect fit around the bar,
otherwise you might find that it is simply too crowded and not
as much fun as you thought!
If you want to have the most comfortable placement of your bar
stools you must think of the bar o r pub table you will be
pairing them with. Before you buy your set of bar stools, you
need to measure the height of the bar that you will be putting
them under. Be sure to pick stools that will allow for ten to
thirteen inches between the top of their seat and the bottom of
the bar or pub tables in your basement bar.
Tip! No Oak vs Heavy Oak: Wines might be stored in oak barrels, usually to impart extra and more complex flavours. French, American and German oak barrels are widely used in Australia.
If your choice stools have arms, be sure that you can still push
the stool under the bar. Bar stools can generally be purchased
with seat heights of between 17 and 31 inches however you may
not be able to purchase the specific piece of furniture you want
in the size necessary. You may have to make a compromise and
take home something in a similar style. It's more important to
get a stool that fits great and maybe isn't the want you wanted
most since the fit is vital to the overall comfort of the chair
and comfort is key in your basement bar. While you are shopping
for bar stools, remember to have in mind the amount of stools
you would like. The most comfortable placement for bar stools is
twenty five - thirty inches from the center of one seat to the
next seat. Take a measurement of the span of your bar and divide
by 28 inches and you've got about how many stools need! Your
basement bar is supposed to be a fun place to hang out so,
remember when buying bar stools that they should not only be
decorative, but functional too. Getting a good look is
important, but getting a great fit is vital!
