The Build Your Bar Story

Back in 2014, a friend showed me a room in his house that was made into a bar. I was impressed and the first thought that came to mind was, “I GOT TO HAVE ONE!” I wanted a home bar that was just like his, but I had no luck finding one. The bars that were similar to his were too pricey. I did not want to spend thousands of dollars for a bar, so I turned to the internet to find instructions on how to build one. Let me tell you…. this was no easy task. There were several bars I came across that looked poorly built. There were many dimensions I came across that were so confusing that I considered giving up and going to the store, buying a pantry, and converting it into a bar. Finally, I decided to build my bar using my own creativity. I did not realize it at the time, but this was the beginning of something epic. To make a long story short, the bar I built impressed everyone who seen it. I soon realized the reason it was so impressive was because there is no bar design like it to this day! The bar I am referring to is The Elsbar. Yes, the Elsbar is the first bar I ever made, and I enjoyed every moment of building it. In fact, I enjoyed it so much that designing bars quickly became my favorite hobby. I remember the frustration I felt when I wanted a bar and it seemed like all the odds were against me. If you are looking for a new arts and crafts hobby, Build Your Bar is here for you.
