I’m looking forward to the first Sunday of February so I can wake up early to scour my local flea market for a vintage bar cart. I figured it’s about time I pull my pretty collection of glassware and bottles out of their cabinets. After all, when the clock strikes 5, having the makings of a cocktail within reach is absolutely necessary – wouldn’t you agree?

Such a good idea!! Obsess with all of these, especially the white one… you do such creative posts! love them!

I would love to be able to find an affordable, vintage-inspired bar cart as well. For the time being, we just turned an old low Target bookshelf into our makeshift bar. Sometimes I think we just have too much liquor to store on a cute little cart!

If I had room in my apartment I’d definitely buy one of these vintage carts. They’re very stylish.

Totally agreed! The bar cabinet in my apartment is made of particle board
Great photo set! This has my gears turning…I may just have to build a minibar sometime soon.
Love the chrome one! Every home needs some sort of a “drinks” place, and no matter what it is it can be lovely depending on the accessories. Hope you find something!!!!
I’ve always loved this mini bar idea. It’s so vintage and sophisticated. The outdoor one would be awesome if you had a big patio and a garden party.

I LOVE bar carts. However, they aren’t super baby friendly
live it up now.
Oooohlala, bar carts are awesome. I love these!
whoa, why is that top right cart stocked with so much jasmine tea? (bottom shelf). I only know because I buy the exact same tea. I’m wondering if I’m missing out on some awesome jasmine tea cocktail out there.
@erin hmmm, we should investigate because a jasmine tea cocktail sounds devine!!
gorgeous! i might just be on the hunt for the same!!
Love the cart idea. I want one in my living room so bad. I love LOVE that very last photo. Artful and functional.
Rebecca (hearts)…
Great idea plus you’re having some good inspirations over here! we have a first month’s sunday market over here as well and I can’t wait.
these are so awesome. i want one for my apartment! wish i had the room or the money.

These are so adorable! I really want one now! Why are you going on the first of February? Is that when the flea market opens or when mini bar carts are on sale?
I love the white iron cart in the photo next to the window! So lovely. I feel like I want to be that friend who has the perfectly stocked mini bar for fun evenings playing games or just watching a movie. Kind of like…the Gilmore Girls.
Hello! A dear friend of mine referred me to this post as I recently wrote a series on bars/bar carts on my new blog… http://www.thequeencitystyle.com/2011/11/bar-cart-admiration.html
We used a lot of the same images… which means similar taste.. which means I look forward to reading more of your blog! Please come visit my blog sometime!

What a neat idea! Thanks for sharing!
the bars look so good!! actually i have found one quite like the one in the first picture, on a flee market here in Dijon. And the lady only wanted 15 €, which is nothing compared to the fact that it was vintage and in great condition. My only problem was, that i used to sell my stuff at the very same flee market and had a full car… no place to store the bar for transport… i am still dreaming of it, even after 1,5 years…
the only thing that bothers me now, is the face that you need to clean it once a week, with all the dust… when i think of that, i may be going for a closed one…
i couldn’t take a glass and drink out it, without washing it first…and this is where it gets complicated…
seriously, they are amazing! i dont which one i would choose for a party!
love all of them! good idea
besos desde España!

I absolutely love the mini bar idea! Thanks for sharing all of this inspiration!!!
love them, great ideas
Sometimes Partner-in-Crime jokes that I only finally moved out to California so I could live with the bar cart I bought and kept at his place for two years while we dated cross-country. I deny it, but I am glad to finally be reunited… with the bar cart. It looks most like the top two. Classic shape, two tier and full of vintage glassware. Now I just want vintage decanters for my collection of whisk(e)ys.
these are great! i don’t even drink on a regular basis but would love to have one for hosting.
I’ve got a mid-century Danish bar-trolley inherited from my mother-in-law, I think it’s the item I love most in my home out of everything. it helps that it also offers a drink!
