Man Cave Motivation




I have always defined a "man cave" to be a place dominated by a man (particularly a bachelor flying solo) where he can be himself (i.e. his home). Others know the iconic term to be either a basement, attic, or garage occupied by a male or group of men where they hangout and do what men do (watch sports, drink, etc.). However you define it and wherever yours may be located; these are some ideas that you can implement into the layout of your space to take things to the #nextlevel! How you setup your home speaks volumes on who you are as a person pertaining to your personality. This is a unique way to showcase to your visitors your #aesthetic! It doesn't take much to make a simple transformation to a place in order to break the monotony that tends to creep in from time to time. Who says #diys are a "woman's thing"? After today's post, I'm hoping that you men will feel motivated to transform your #mancave; adding something new to the mix of your environment. These are 5 simple projects that you can do yourself to revamp your place without breaking the bank!



5. Cardboard Pendant Lights:

4. Jack Daniel's Soap Dispenser:





Taken from diyprojects.com, this project is the definition of simple. The website gives it to you straight: take an empty bottle of Jack, fill it up with your favorite hand soap, and attach the head of a soap dispenser on top to add Tennessee charm to your kitchen and/or bathroom!






3. Tennis Racket Mirrors:

These can be vintage finds or just an old racket that you haven't used in a while. This project is a great way to recycle unwanted rackets by giving them new life as your "man cave decor"; adding a sporty theme to the dynamic of your space.

Homecrux.com gives guidance on how to make the transformation!

This diy only requires your strength as you can take three cinder blocks and stack them to create a unique bedside table/nightstand; keeping those nighttime essentials by your side in an effortless cool kind of way! Home Depot and Lowe's provide these building staples in store and online for your convenience.







1. Leather Belt Shelves:

This custom design utilizes old leather belts that you don't wear anymore to create a rustic floating shelve that compliments every man's style! HGTV is thee authority on home decor and they provide the steps to help you make your own unique "leather belt shelf".
