I’ve been scouring antique and thrift shops for the perfect bar cart. I’ve had super specific requirements: it should be brass, and have bamboo looking legs with glass shelving. Lately I’ve been saving inspiration images of substitutes for bar carts. I love the idea of using a vintage trunk, a console, or a bookshelf.
Bar Cart Substitutes

Love these alternative ideas! I, too, have been looking for the perfect bar cart [with pretty much the exact same specifications].
Oooh I am in love with the first one and the third one! I’m gonna have to put these on my pinterest. =)
Love breaking away from the norm for your bar cart. The first ophoto is my fave….

Ohhh I love the bar shelves idea!!
Loving the ideas!!! These are perfect for when I get my house in a few months!!!
I’m officially your newest follower! I started blogging on Sunday and I’m loving all the new people I’m meeting!!
The first one is my fav for sure!!! I love going to thrift stores trying to find good things!
I love the second and third!! Loving the black board with all the white fixtures, and just adore the colorfulness of the third photo. Those pellegrino bottles mixed with the pink flowers and oranges make for such a bright area!
The trunk is a pretty neat the idea.:D
