I visited two of my sisters earlier this month in North Carolina. I was surprised to find out that people over there actually use the term “man cave” without laughing. It’s a serious thing! I thought it was just a joke.
I still can’t imagine needing a man cave, but then I don’t drive an SUV, own a gun, or struggle to find the pants in the morning.
But maybe there’s something to this man cave experience. What room couldn’t use a jolt of over-produced manly halmark sentiment? Can we call it manmark? Here are some man cave items that will turn your kitchen into a man kitchen. I still can’t say that without chuckling.
Mark your territory
Rule number one is apparently the need to let everyone know that you’ve got a man cave and they are standing in it. So get yourself a big neon sign.


You don’t want anyone to forget whose man cave they are visiting. So grab a personalized man cave banner.


A place to sit
You’ll need some stools, the uglier the better. We don’t want any style, that wouldn’t be man cavely. Nope, grab some faux-tacky bar stools.


Beer
What’s more manly than relaxing in your man kitchen? Can we call it a mantchen? Relaxing in your mantchen with beer. Lots of beer. Lot’s of beer in your manly kegerator!


It’s a mantchen, make some beer!


Don’t forget the wine, you’ll need to hide a bottle or two for when your man friends aren’t around and the woman invades the space.


Time to accessorize!
Remember what Christopher Lowell
says, it’s time to add that final layer of design.
Nothing scream man cave more than a Wonder Woman cookie jar.


It’s always beer drinking time with this man cave clock


Figure out which mustache you’ll grow next with this set of mustache mirror stickers. They’ll be great on that shiny stainless steel fridge.


If the cave is gonna stink, make it stink like bacon!


There’s so much to learn about building and enjoying your man cave. Perhaps this book will help.
