Bar carts are having a moment when it comes to interior design. While I’m the most ‘average gal’ out there when it comes to decorating, my love affair for blogs convinced me that we needed a bar cart in our home, despite having two children under 5, being clumsy and not really having a dedicated space to put it. Catch this recent post loaded up with bar cart inspiration? Yeah, such good ideas! So, when I saw this cart for under $130, it had to be mine. Luckily, it fits perfectly in a dining room nook. While it’s just jazzed up for now since we haven’t had any big dinners, it’s really the perfect spot for anything — from water pitcher, overflow from your table, or even cookbooks, flowers or  picture frames — to the more traditional storing liquor, wine and glassware.

Be creative with its uses; it’s really just a table on wheels, and check out after the jump more ways to style this specific one (love the DIY one where she refinished it).

Ah, the illustrious bar cart. I don’t know the exact moment happened when I, a now mother or two who doesn’t even drink, felt absolutely compelled to have a bar cart in my home. It became a mission to not only find the perfect spot but to also find one at a killer price point. I saw this one at Target and soon so did the rest of the world. It’s been photographed everywhere, including a few images below, and is just pure magnificence. So when I told my Target friends about my love affair over pretty much everything Threshold, the line behind this gem, they offered to connect me to a designer. Gasp. This average gal with a crazy *lack* of penchant for anything design?! Sure! Sign me up. I’ll fill you in on that amazing interview soon enough however in the interim here’s some inspiration helping me fill up my bar cart (since it has to be relatively child friendly!).
