A Displayed Alcohol Collection
People who cover walls or shelves with beer bottles fall into one of three categories: bartenders, frat members, or alcoholics. Unless your visitor knows you well, they may presume you belong to the third type. Worst case scenario, you’ll come across as someone who wishes they were still in college. A kitchen collection of cocktails may be useful if you’re a bartender who likes to create drinks for guests. A display of beer for the sake of beer, on the other hand, is just tacky.
Slogans That Celebrate Wine
Wine decor, like beer decor, indicates a drinking problem. However, it comes out as clumsy, especially when it highlights the kitchen owner’s “sassy” or “quirky” attitude. You’ve probably seen these signs, mugs, and dishes all over town: “Dinner is poured,” “Vacation and rosé,” “I speak fluent wine,” and so on. It’s not as adorable or attractive as the folks who buy these things believe. At best, it’s cheesy.
