I’m not a big drinker and during the fall and winter, I love a hot cocktail like spiked cider or boozy hot chocolate. And now that the temps are falling in the evening, I thought I better get my bar cart ready for fall sips.

I have two bar carts that I switch between so I decided to put the smaller cart away and pull out my large three-tier cart. I made this shelving piece at a Home Depot Do-it-Herself workshop a couple of years ago and love it.

Like most of my decor these days, I styled my cart with both brass and blue and white pieces. And to keep the cart fun, I added whimsical pieces like the BAR marquee letters and a couple of decorative pineapples.

As the season progresses, I’ll probably switch out the pumpkins for and fall flowers for something else but for now my cart is dressed for fall.

Blue and White DIY Ice Bucket

When styling my bar cart, I have some go to pieces that I think every bar cart needs. They include pretty glassware, a chic cocktail tray and cotton cocktail napkins. I also love a fun ice bucket and a brass pineapple cocktail shaker. All of these items can be purchased new or you can shop flea markets and antique stores for vintage pieces. To make shopping easy, I’ve rounded up a few of my favorite off the shelf cocktail finds.
