Decorating A Cheap Bar Fridge
When it comes to bar fridges, there are fantastic looking ones, and then there are dull ones. The difference is usually in the price tag. Great looking mini bar fridges usually come with price tags of over $200, with some high units reaching into the thousands of dollars. The higher priced models usually come with fancy features like glass doors or customizable doors that allow them to blend in completely with their surroundings. For those of us who prefer not to spend a week or even a month’s wages on a small appliance, here are some ideas on how to get your cheap bar fridge either looking great or turning invisible.
By far the easiest way to get a cheap mini bar fridge looking great is to adorn it with some stickers. I’m not talking about little kiddie stickers. These days you can get some really great looking ones about anything you are interested in. This might be your favorite type of beer (we are talking about things for the bar), a sports team, or even your favorite politician! Since most people use their bars at night, if you get a sticker that glows in the dark, it will look great. If you start with a black fridge, you won’t even really see it if it is dark and glowing.
As far as making the little appliance disappear completely, here are a couple of ideas. First, you can stash it away in one of the cabinets, then open the door to access it. This option only works if you get one small enough to fit inside the cupboard though! Another idea is to use a piece of cloth to drape over it. If you put a nice colored piece of fabric right over a small bar fridge and then put a vase with flowers on top of that, people will just assume that it is a little table and not even notice it. You can put it right up against one of your interior home columns in the basement and it will look like it supposed to be there.
