HOW TO STYLE A BAR CART (classy & budget-friendly!) | Bar Cart Decor
By Sophia Lee
Do you really have an apartment without a bar cart?! I've been scheming up ways in my head for the last year to add a bar cart into my apartment. I'm nearing the end of decorating my apartment (but don't worry - the flip house is going to be FULL of decor ideas 😜) and I had one last big wall to do something on.
My kitchen is open to my living room and the wall between it is decently large. It was the perfect place to add a bar cart. Tbh, I'm not the biggest fan of the "bar cart" look. I feel like it's really hard to decorate it in a way that looks cute and not tacky.
Now that it's done, I'm mad I waited so long. Between the mirror, the actual bar cart, the bar cart decor...everything (!!!) I love it. And best part, it was actually really affordable to put together! #barcart #apartment #interiordesign

I've been dreaming up this bar cart decor for a while now and I'm obsessed with how it turned out! 🥂 What's one of your bar cart essentials?!

[@shannonwright8717]

I love this setup! One of my essentials is some good bottles of wine! P.S. where did you get that Jean jacket I love it!?

[@SaharaKnows]

cute. where does the alcohol go? lol

[@sarabrinkerhoff4552]

So cute! And so wild, I randomly decided I wanted to do a bar cart situation and a day later you posted this. It’s a sign!!

[@zulmav.8497]

Love all the decor on your bar cart. Thanks for sharing these fabulous ideas. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@timk1480]

I personally would consider what type of cocktails you prefer. Then buy the tools and glassware and alcohol that those cocktails require. Then pull it all together with your preferred decor. Form and function! Otherwise you’ve created a display you’ll need to dust.

[@curlycurly004u]

mirrors are so expensive!! Cute cart!

[@heeds1049]

Love the mirror!

[@valerieewing4023]

Honestly, I can't wait to get my own place again so I can style my bar cart again!

[@BySophiaLee]

it was so fun to decorate!!

[@shelleyjacobs2563]

I wanted to add Greenery to my bar cart so I added the herbs I needed to make the cocktails it looked really cute

[@rebeccamleprince]

Hi 🙋🏾‍♀️there Trying to look a tutorial for drink trolley And I find you Thx 🙏🏾 this is what I had in my head Very super helpful 👍🏾

[@sarahoverby3505]

So cute!

[@BySophiaLee]

💓💓

[@alexiskelley8821]

I have a gray 3 level utlity cart from target and would love to make it a bar cart for my apartment!

[@NarcisseFields]

can you link the wine glasses? im considering a bar cart too but my space is kinda small!

[@charnisebonds3424]

Where did you get the mirror from?

[@Zoe-dv5qb]

I love you❤️❤️

[@SaharaKnows]

is it a dummy mirror. some of the arched mirror distort the reflection so you look wider.

[@BySophiaLee]

no this one doesn't seem to distort at all!

[@adorable1122]

What’s the software you use to stage it

[@BySophiaLee]

Canva 😊 It's free!

[@limegreenmamba5218]

There seems to be something missing. Oh yeah, the booze.

[@chrishenson1190]

I liked the video but I keep expecting you to put alcohol on the cart and it never happened

[@nvargas9454]

if there is no alcohol in a bar cart , then its NOT a bar cart lol. At this point, it's more like a decoration cart .

[@lovepeace7373]

I was so annoyed the entire time she is talking away while standing in front of the cart so i could not see the decor

[@lindseysowden5409]

Talks too much!
