Small bar space in design limbo

My 1974 ranch house included a small wet bar space. Due to budget restrictions, I am limited, but I wanted to do something fun and add personality to this lackluster space. I was thinking of adding a maximalist style print wallpaper with a high gloss complimentary color for the cabinets, but I would love/welcome some other ideas.

(The picture shows a chaotic space of my partner's pilings, so be warned).
