Meet My New Bar Cart

Happy Monday!

I am more giddy than usual for a Monday morning...because today I get to introduce you all to my new bar cart!  :)

Isn't she a beauty?  I found her on Craigslist and had Hubby pick her up earlier this week.

The cart is all brass and has a great patina.  I had fun styling...

I found the tray at a local antique shop.  The vase is Kate Spade.


I found the bowl at a local antique shop as well...it's dated back to the 50's!  

I found the mirror at Ross!  Thought it was a total score! 

I hope to add this urchin to the top of the books next!  :)





So what do you think?  Good find?  I think so!  I feel a little "Mad Men" esque with this lovely spot in my dining room now!  :)

    I love it and perfectly styled I might add! I am dying for a bar cart but the way Sterling always makes a beeline for my wine rack makes me rethink a bar cart. I could see broken glass everywhere! Ah, the decorating sacrifices we make for kids:)

    I am so jealous of your bar cart you have no idea. First of all if I had one my baby would probably pull it down on himself but secondly my hubs would prob not even let me have one because he hates them...dumb. So I will just have to enjoy the eye candy of yours :)
