Suggestions for Creating a Man Cave at Home

Most people think of a man cave as a place where men can go to be alone, free from the distractions of women and children. But for many men, it’s more than that. A man cave is a place where they can be themselves, without having to put on a show for anyone else. It’s an area where they can relax and let their guard down.

Creating a space for the men at home doesn’t have to be difficult. There are many different options to choose from. These include having neon signs, such as those by Neon Mama, to brighten up the space and create some meaning and direction. 

Here then are some ideas on how you can create a man cave area that is a part of your home, whether it be effectively inside or out.

Man caves

This is probably the most popular option for creating a space that men can enjoy. A man cave can be anything you want it to be – a den, office, a loft, or even just an extra room in your house that you can use as your own space. The key is to make it comfortable and inviting so you’ll want to spend time watching the Super Bowl, playing video games, playing real games that pay real money, or throwing some darts with your buddies.

Because you can access it from inside, it is perfect to hide out in whenever you feel like it and whatever the weather.

Garden sheds

If you don’t have the room for a man cave, or if you prefer something outdoorsy, then consider building yourself a garden shed. This is especially good if you have access to some land outside of town. You can use your shed as an office, workshop, or just somewhere to relax and get away from it all.

Sheds do not just have to be about housing the lawnmower or garden tools, they can be a nice space outdoors. This does not mean that we have to enjoy our activities by candlelight because we can easily sort out power to our shed if we do not position it too far away from the house.

Garages with More than Cars In

Another great option to create a space solely for men is a garage. This can be a place to work on cars, use tools to repair a broken object, or for just about anything else. It can be a place to relax and watch the game. If you don’t have a garage, consider building one. It’s a great way to get some extra storage and it can be customized to fit your needs.

Often attached to the house, electricity to your garage should present no problem. Then we can rig up whatever kinds of lighting, white or multi-colored, that takes our fancy.

Decorating the Above Spaces

Whether it is a man cave or an outbuilding that is creating the space, you will need to illuminate it in some way. This can be by simply using a lightbulb in a holder, preferably with a lampshade, or by having a series of spotlights to provide greater focus on certain activities.

Then we can be more creative still and look to have different colors with our lighting. This can easily be achieved with neon lighting. This will allow for not just a different and bright color to illuminate our space, but a more interesting design to look at too, which can be in worded script or a pictorial image.

The potential colors available in neon lighting include:

• Neon Blue
• Neon Green
• Neon Orange
• Neon Pink
• Neon Purple
• Neon Red
• Neon White
• Neon Yellow

You are only limited by your imagination when it comes to decorating a man cave with neon lighting. It can provide the perfect way to add some more excitement and vibrancy to the space.

Furniture for Man Caves

The furniture you select will play a big role in the overall feel of the space. You’ll want to choose pieces that are comfortable and inviting, but that also reflect your style. Here are a few ideas:

• Recliners: A recliner is a perfect way to relax after a long day. Choose one that’s comfortable and stylish, and make sure it has a good warranty.

• Bar Stools: If you plan on entertaining, then bar stools are a must. They will provide the required atmosphere and make it look like a real bar.

• Sofas: If you have the room, a sofa is a great addition. Choose a design that’s going to fit all your guests, unless you always plan to be alone.

• Tables: You’ll need a place to put your drinks, so why not get a table that reflects your style? Poker tables, pool tables, and football tables are all great options.

• Chairs: In addition to your sofa, you may want to add some chairs. Choose comfortable chairs that match your style.

As you can see, there are many different ways to create a space for men at home. The key is to make it your own and to choose lit signs, furniture, and accessories that reflect your style. With a little effort, you can create the perfect space for you to relax and unwind, whether it is a space within your home or inside a building outside of it. Creating a suitable space at home that is men only is easy and fun. Just choose an area where you are least likely to be disturbed.
