Bringing Back the Bar Cart

Tags:

Bar carts (or trolleys, as they say in the UK) are back, but do you know the story behind them? Here’s a little history of the famous drinks vehicle for you to share at your next cocktail party.

The History of the Bar Cart

We love the idea of a bar cart. It’s chic, festive, and easy to assemble. To create your own personal look, it’s time to bring out all the glamorous glassware you’ve tucked away. Now is the perfect time to embrace family heirlooms by highlighting them on your very own bar cart.

In fact, we’ll be using one at our party on the 14th! Stay tuned for photos and fabulous cocktail recipes… and use them as inspiration for your next gathering.

Don’t have a bar cart? Not sure what style you like? Whatever your style, there is a bar cart to fit your needs. Here are just a few of our favorites for your inspiration:

And, if you want to freshen up your look with some beautifully retro pieces, you can always find something special at your local consignment shop, like the one we highlighted last year. Using select pieces or a suite of fabulous glassware is the easiest way to make any gathering more festive.

All my best,
Claudia
