Simple Bar Cart Styling to Last Throughout the Holidays

I was gifted these beautiful, natural looking magnolia branches and flowers from Prestige Botanicals and fully intended to use them for just a fall accent. But, once I started unfolding the leaves, I thought they’d transition well from Thanksgiving, to Christmas, and even into the new year!

Not to sound like a curmudgeon, but that’s basically killing two birds with one stone. ;) We have been so busy this year with project after project, that using the least amount of effort possible and still having a pretty home for the holidays just sounds like a really good idea. So, here’s my bar cart styled for the holidays.

It’s mainly full of interesting liquors left over from our last party. I just organized the bottles neatly and added a marble cheese board with gold edging along with these pretty copper Moscow mule mugs and shot-sized mugs.

The magnolia stems fit perfectly into an old vase I got from Home Goods a few years ago that has a cable knit sweater look to it.

Last year, I used them in my Thanksgiving tablescape, seen below:

You may have noticed our dining room got a little makeover since then. The full details are here:

At our last house, we had two beautiful magnolia trees in our backyard and I used them in my decor often. Since moving, I don’t have easy access to magnolia branches like I did, so these realist looking stems are definitely filling a void. :)

This bar cart was actually black when I bought it and I spray painted it white and made the wheels look like brass. All the details can be found here:
