Bar Cart Essentials for Every Style

One of the basics for a beautiful bar cart? Drinkware you love! Philip Erdoes, CEO of The New Traditionalists, shares his tip for garnering glassware. "We love vintage pieces. Artisanal cocktails always taste better in old-school glasses. Ebay has some sweet midcentury glasses and accessories," he says.

Shakers and strainers, tongs and stirrers—make sure your bar has all the accessories for making and mixing all kinds of cool cocktails. Here, a perfectly organized bar cart means everything is within reach.

Keeping the bar cart couch side is a great two-for-one setup—and a spectacular space-saver at that. The top of this cart holds a lamp, books and décor, providing style and storage.

You've got the cart and the beverages, now don't forget a stack of pretty napkins and a little something to nosh on. Here, the bottom shelf holds all the essentials, leaving the top shelf for cocktail prep and snacks.
