BAR CART IKEA HACK

So if you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen my "mystery box" from Ikea. I decided on buying this little bar cart after seeing some great blog posts on how to transform it from industrial to chic. I actually love how tall and narrow it is because my apartment only allows for a cart this size. A few coats of gold paint and I was happy.

Unfortunately I never got a great pic of my cart, but here is a photo from the blog Blush and Jelly that inspired me to repaint the cart.

I am so excited to finally have one and to stock it up! Obviously it needs some cute glassware and we already have the champagne glasses sitting pretty. Here is the rest of what is on my bar cart wish list.
