Months and months and months ago I posted about how I have pined for a bar cart for our living room. Why? Because they are fancy and decorative and useful and classy and awesome. Allow these next few photos to demonstrate my point for me (from houzz.com).
After months of online shopping, vintage-store cruising and craigslist scouring I finally found a decent looking bar cart for less than $100. It was Etsy that came to the rescue, with a ’50s brass bar cart for an affordable $60 (versus the $100, $200 and $300 pricetags most online retailers charge). Hallelujah! My dream of being a Mad Men cast member is that much closer to being a reality.
So basically I’m a pretty happy gal these days. Only thing left to do is stock the cart with lots of new goodies.
It looks great! I’m also loving that blue beaker-type vase you have. Lovely!
Thanks! I figured it wouldn’t hurt to have something lush to accompany the lush’s bar cart, ha!
It’s been neat to see how your place is coming together! It’s looking very modern retro art deco!!
Thanks Hannah. It’s been a real process. When I think about what it looked like when we first moved in, I’m shocked by how much has changed. Who knows what it will look like a year from now.
It really goes well with your 50s house. Now you need some nice bottles of liqueur. Also, can’t get over the flowers you still have blooming.
We had some roses pop open today too.
Love the look of this cart! Great find!
Thanks! I couldn’t believe it when I found it on Etsy. I thought surely something had to be defective, but so far so good.
Very cool!
Thanks. I don’t know how I did without it before!
