Be warned, these man cave ideas might have you staying in your favorite room the whole day. Grab a beer and check out which DIYs to cross off your list.

Man Cave Ideas | DIY Furnishings For The Man By The Man

Sometimes, guys just need to get away from it all. That’s what a man cave is for. In it, I can’t be bothered with anything happening in the outside world — it’s my safe place. And with these man cave ideas, it’ll definitely stay that way.

 

1. Denim Ottoman

This denim ottoman is great for hiding unwanted clutter in the man cave. Personally, I use it as a storage compartment for all my video game controllers, but I bet you could place just about anything you want inside.

2. Wine Barrel Coffee Table

Got a wine barrel you have no idea what to do with? Turn it into a coffee table. Use a ratchet strap to help align the area where you’ll be cutting the barrel in half. Don’t forget to ensure the strap is straight.

3. Magnetic Bottle Opener

I like leaving this magnetic bottle opener on the door of my fridge. That way, I won’t even have to open drawers looking for a bottle opener anymore.

4. Dart Board Backing

Lauren loves wine like crazy so she always has a ton of spare wine bottles and corks laying around. One of the good things that have come out of this — apart from our usual wine nights — is this backing I’ve constructed for my dart board. It doesn’t hurt that my wall has an added layer of protection against my darts as well.

5. Crate Toilet Paper Holder

Who would’ve thought a wooden crate could be used as a toilet paper holder? I sure didn’t! Now all I have to do is find an old license plate I can use to place on the crate.

6. Jack Daniels Soap Dispenser

My buddies and I love a good bottle of Jack Daniels, which is why I’m pretty excited to be making this DIY. It’s so simple too. Literally, all I have to do is just pour the liquid soap into the bottle, and attach the head of the soap dispenser on top. That’s it!

7. DIY Hooks From Wrenches

These DIY hooks are made from spare wrenches I had from an old tool box. The secret to getting them to bend is to simply heat up the tool a bit. Just be careful when you bend the ends together.

8. Wood Slice Serving Board

This wood slice serving board won’t cost you above $10, even if it looks fancy. Start by looking for dried and seasoned hardwood stumps. If you can’t find any, head to your nearest craft store and look for a basswood slice.

9. Pallet Coffee Table

If you want to make a big coffee table for your man cave, you may need to increase the number of wood pallets on hand. This tutorial uses 3 pallets, but you can add or reduce these according to the size of the table you’d prefer.

10. Industrial Bookshelf

Give your books a manlier home by placing them in an industrial bookshelf. Begin by laying out how you want your shelf to look like on the wall. Do this by attaching strips of masking tape to help visualize your project.

11. Wall Pallet Arrow

My man cave is my sanctuary. So to help me remind myself to leave all problems at the door, I’ve put in a wood pallet arrow on the wall. It’s kind of my way of telling myself to leave all the bad vibes outside.

12. Penny Tiled Floor

A penny for your thoughts? How about some pennies for your floor? This DIY makes use of your unwanted pennies by placing strong glue and pressing your coins onto the floor.

13. Pallet Bar

Always dreamed of having your own man cave bar? Well, now you can make one using some pallets. Don’t forget to add in wooden boards behind the front frame of your bar. Doing so will ensure a sturdier furniture piece.

14. Beer Bottle Glasses

Put your empty beer bottles to good use by turning them into glasses. By the way, sand the edges once the glass is cut. You’ll definitely need to make sure the mouth of the glass is smooth.

15. Balancing Bookshelf

This installation piece looks super cool and functions as an awesome bookshelf. Just remember not to put too many books on one side, as it could make the whole shelf fall.

16. Suitcase Shelves

Want more shelf options? These suitcase shelves are definitely one of my man cave statement pieces. By the way, I’ve found it’s best to take out the lining inside the suitcases before beginning the DIY, as they can get a bit smelly.

Bonus Inspiration!

17. Barrel Bed

I’ve got to say. This barrel bed sure looks pretty inviting. If I had one, I reckon I’d have some of the most relaxing naps ever.

18. Tire Sinks

Take your favorite room up a notch by installing these tire sinks in your bathroom. This would be perfect for a radiator springs man cave concept.

19. Nintendo Controller Coffee Table

Would you believe this Nintendo controller coffee table actually functions? I know! I’m honestly really tempted to buy this online. It would take my gaming to a whole new level.
