IRISH PUB kitchen!!!

The first thing I think of when I think Ireland is BEER! Maybe, instead of painting the walls, you could cut opens hundreds of beer cans & use them as wallpaper? I think it would be a nice touch!

That is a great idea for a kitchen!!. I was looking online for celtic home decor once and came across some good websites. This is one of them..I never did order from it or anything but I thought it might give you some ideas! ...be sure to post pics when you are done!

Haha, do you suggest I drink all the beer first? Then my kitchen would look REALLY interesting! (At least, to me it would! )

Thank you for the link! I will look at it now! I will post before and after pics in case any of you forgot what my kitchen looks like now....

You can't have an irish kitchen without a claddagh picture or incorporated into your decor! I love the idea! It certainly will be unique!

Sheep - sheep everywhere! Wandering in the middle of the roads! Ruins and castles, also everywhere.... Rainbows - we saw at least one rainbow every day!


I've been in an Irish kitchen. It's looked like an American kitchen

Hmmm.... Lace curtains are a must. The claddaugh is a great idea. A Celtic cross over the door. Maybe some pictures of Ireland? Or paintings?

Can anyone find and post pics of such things for a good visual?

What specifically are you looking for pics of? I have 300+ pics of Ireland.

Well... probably anything inside, I need indoor decor ideas, like I know I want it to have a little feminine touch like a small vase of flowers, but what kind of flowers? Bamboo is to Japan like ____ is to Ireland? Textures, patterns, types of rock, wood, glass, etc....

Flowers? What about buying potted shamrock plants?

Lots of wood, dark wood........ May of the Irish pubs are dark wood inside as well as the older houses.... I'll have to look through some of my pics....

Maybe one but I don't want to do the typical shamrock/leprechaun thing... I want it to look authentic...

you also need an old teakettle.......

Yeah! I was looking on Ebay for one....

Check out some of the pictures on this website -

Hmmm, I wonder if I'll end up more toward Irish cottage than Irish pub??

Here are some bar signs:

Here's a cool site! If you have an Irish name, this site might have a picture of a pub bearing your name:

Pub posters:

This is a good site with cute interior pictures:

That should get you started!

Can you tell I love to do searches?

Indoor walls in Ireland, especially in older houses and cottages, are often whitewashed. And of course the national colours are green and white.

Great idea!!!! I love Ireland! Not good with decorating though.... Maybe you should follow their opinions Tell ya what I think when I think of Ireland though.....green leprechauns, pots of gold, and Lucky Charms!!!
