<p>The Man Cave&#8230; a mythical world, a den, a lair, a truly masculine place where only a man can escape and</p>
<p>be surrounded by the things that he values the most&#8230; automotive goodies, football memorabilia, flatscreen TV’s, Game Consoles, gadgets and toys&#8230;</p>
<p>It could be a dedicated room in the house, it might be the garage or even a purpose built summerhouse or shed.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" style="width: auto;" alt="" src="http://myblogguest.com/forum/uploads/articles/2013/5/4801_joe_colombo_black01_1100_x_851.jpg" width="600" height="451" /></p>
<p>Whatever and wherever you cave, it is a man’s secret den and special place and therefore it should be decorated and furnished in ‘man style’.</p>
<h2>Create the Perfect Man Cave</h2>
<p>Once you have chosen your space, it is time to start turning it into the man cave.</p>
<p>If you have chosen the garage, then it might need a spruce up and some extra considerations.</p>
<p>It is a great idea and makes the space look great too, if you install easy clean flooring and insulation. This way you’ll be dry and warm all year.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" style="width: auto;" alt="" src="http://myblogguest.com/forum/uploads/articles/2013/5/4262306193_4b2d138749_b.jpg" width="604" height="500" /></p>
<p>However, most man caves tend to be a dedicated room or space in the home so have a think about the look you wish to create.</p>
<p>Ideally a basement room would be a great choice, but any room will do, just use your imagination to create your own space.</p>
<p>If the room is big enough then an obvious choice would be to install a pool table or bar area where you can hang out with the guys, shoot pool and enjoy a beer or two.</p>
<p>However, if space does not allow, then think about other ways.</p>
<p>A large flat screen TV has got to be high on the list.</p>
<p>For watching footy on Sky Sports, cheering on the rugby or sitting down to watch the latest blockbuster movie, the TV is a must and the BIGGER THE BETTER!</p>
<h2>What Do I Need?</h2>
<p>Comfortable seating – it could be an old leather sofa, some comfortable easy chairs or</p>
<p>you could even invest in some ‘cinema style’ chairs complete with drinks holders to create your very own movie area.</p>
<p>Surround Sound – No man cave is complete with music and a state of the art sound system has gotta be high on the list.</p>
<p>Whether it’s for immersing yourself in a movie or pumping out the latest tunes with shameful abandon, the music system is essential.</p>
<h2>Games Console</h2>
<p>With the superb sound system in place, you can take advantage of linking it all up to your games console.</p>
<p>Playstation, Xbox or something else it’s a great way to challenge your mates to a game or two or settle down alone to blow some bad guys away at volume!</p>
<h2>Wall Art</h2>
<p>OK, so you’re a man and arty stuff is not quite ideal for your man cave&#8230; so let’s think about signed football shirts, Formula one racing caps, desirable car or</p>
<p>motorcycle pictures or your favourite album cover artwork&#8230; whatever floats your boat, pop it on the walls for added interest or simply for showing off!</p>
