Mid-Century Bar Cart



There’s nothing better than an excuse to play bartender! We love the mid-century bar cart look, fully stocked with fun straws, napkins, glasses, and of course, adult beverages.

This is an ultra-easy DIY if you’re looking for something quick and chic! This project will only take you about an hour, so grab a cocktail and let’s get to it.


We found this bar cart at an electrical supply auction. And I’m going to let you in on a little secret….electric supply, auto-shop, and tool auctions can be some of the best auctions to score some off-the-chart pieces! These are typically the “man” sales, but don’t be intimidated because there’s almost always furniture and other cool finds at these auctions that men have no interest in bidding, so the deals are ah-mazing!

So for this bar cart, we just picked out a color and went crazy with spray paint. We used about 2 cans on this cart, so make sure you have enough on hand. We're in love with Rose Gold jewelry lately, so we thought we'd try it out with the spray paint for something a little different.



After it’s dry, style with your favorite accessories and voila!
