The novelty of a home bar will always endure. Whether it's a retro bar cart adorned with bar accessories or a nook designated for making drinks, there's something infinitely special and inviting about a home equipped with a bar.
With the Holidays fast approaching, I'm on the lookout for ways to make my little home bar feel guest-ready. While the beauty of a bar is its year-round appeal, there's no denying that the festive period is when our drink-making stations receive the most action. So, you can imagine my joy when I spotted actor Emma Roberts' chic 'pouring station' that's effortlessly chic and surprisingly easy to recreate in time for Christmas.
