“I used to like beer”, “I still like beer” Like a certain supreme court judge, I like beer. With that, the resemblance pretty much stops.
But my beer loving nature and handyman skills put together can create some nice effects;
Credit where credit is due; Arnoud helped by cutting the bottoms off the beer bottles.
I added a cedar wood ring at the bottom, to hide the sharp cuts and match the color scheme.
From left to right are Shiner Pecan Porter, Devil’s BackBone and Blood & Honey.
The light is cast on where the three bar stool seats will be, and also illuminate the kitchen countertop.
The brown glass also sheds a little ambient light.
Of course, they are smart lights and can be controlled individually by voice or all together by a dimmer.
Now each bar seat can control their own light and set it to their wanted level by saying something like “Hey Siri, Centre bar light to 25%”
Worked out great!
I think a lower-light exposure may do even better justice to the warm/cozy effect.
Will siri react when ‘the voice is drunk’!?
