How To Create A Professional-Looking Bar Cart — Even If You Are An Amateur
A bar cart has been one of the most eye-catching and voguish home decor ideas as seen on social media. In situations where serving serious style is just as important as serving tasty drinks, a bar cart makes an excellent statement piece in any home decor. There are a variety of modern bar carts available in the market — like wooden, rustic or even vintage bar carts. Here are some ways to add a personalised touch to your liquor cart.
1. Style with the seasons
As fall has approached, why not start with some Autumn or Halloween decor ideas? You can design your bar trolley by using season-themed colour beverage bottles. For example, you can start by adding autumn colours like orange, red, brown, or yellow. Also stock the bar cart with bourbon, fall spices, and cranberries.
Similarly, for holidays, you can add cranberries, cinnamon sticks, wine, or baileys. You can also add some Christmas accessories like napkins, straws, or fancy glassware. Don’t just limit it to seasons, you can also decorate your bar carts according to your birthday or party themes.
2. Accessorise with cocktail essentials
You don’t have to stick to the traditional designs when designing your rolling bar cart — you can be as creative as you like! Add a few useful accessories like a corkscrew, bottle opener, straws, napkins, or coaster. Also add a set of bar tools like a jigger, muddler, mixing spoon, and cocktail shaker to make it look more impressive.
You can also use cocktail garnish ingredients to add a little colour to the decor. Try adding mint herbs, lemons, fruits, or even spices. They not only make a good garnish but also can be used as decor for your drink cart.
3. Adding statement glassware can never go wrong
Who doesn’t love a good variety of display glassware? It’s always a good idea to go for crystal-clear glassware for your bar cart. Mostly different cocktails are served in particular glassware. Like, martinis are served in a martini glass, and margaritas are served with a margarita glass. It’s a good idea to have a few of these elegant glasses on hand depending on your favourite cocktail.
Similarly, you can also throw in a few wines, champagne, or beer glasses. Also, why not add a beverage glass dispenser? It’s very convenient for parties or small get-togethers to serve cocktails or fruit punch from your outdoor bar cart to your guests.
4. Add natural elements like flowers and books
One great way to add natural elements and make a bar cart look more inviting is to include flowers and books. Flowers can brighten up a space, while books can add depth and personality. Choose pastel colours like lavender, pink or peach for the flowers, and neutrals like beige, cream, or white for the books.
For book lovers, consider adding titles like “The Art Of Mixing Alcohol” or “How To Make The Perfect Martini” on your bar carts, so people have something easy to reach when they need it (or want another drink!). By incorporating natural elements into your bar cart styling, you’ll not only make yourself happy but also encourage others who visit your home!
By now, you must have understood that creating a classy bar cart is not as hard as you thought. Based on the tips mentioned above, it will not take more than half an hour for you to design your dream bar cart.
