How to Style Your Gold Bar Cart

1. Set the Backdrop: Gold Fringe Wall
A gold fringe backdrop instantly sets a celebratory tone and frames your bar cart beautifully.
Attach the fringe to the wall behind the cart using clear tape or removable hooks.
Let the fringe cascade fully for a dramatic look or trim it to a sleek, modern length.

Pro Tip: Add a second layer of fringe for extra fullness and shimmer.

2. Add Grey Honeycomb Flutterball Garland for Contrast
Grey honeycomb orbs provide a sophisticated contrast to the bright gold.
Hang them above the bar cart at varying heights to create depth.
Alternatively, place a few orbs on the cart for a layered effect.

Quick Tip: Mix different sizes and colors of orbs for a dynamic look.

3. Make the Clock the Star: A clock is a must-have for your New Year’s Eve bar cart—it’s the perfect nod to the midnight countdown.

• Use a vintage-style clock for a classic touch or a sleek modern design for a contemporary vibe.
• Place it prominently on the top shelf or lean it against the cart for a casual look.

Tip: If your clock is small, elevate it on a stack of books or a decorative tray.

4. Incorporate a Tassel Garland: Tassels tie the theme together with elegance.

• Hang them along the edge of the bar cart for a festive garland effect.
• Use them as accents around bottles, glasses, on the wall or even around the clock.

5. Stock with New Year’s Eve Bar Cart Essentials: Keep your bar cart functional while staying stylish.

• Drinks: Champagne or sparkling wine for the midnight toast.
• Glassware: Flutes or coupes for a touch of luxury.
• Garnishes: Lemon twists, berries, and sugar to rim glasses for extra glam.
• Tools: Champagne stopper, ice bucket, and shaker for mixing cocktails.

Styling Tips for Success

• Keep the color palette cohesive with gold, grey, and white as your main colors.
• Balance decor and function—leave space for easy access to drinks and glasses.
• Refresh decor as needed during the party to keep it looking polished.

Everything is just so sparkly from this view. I used one of my favorite gold trays to contain mixers and cocktails. I love the pop of those cute black & gold tinsel straws and the oversized confetti is fun too.

It really is so gorgeous in person, I want to leave it up all year!

Here’s a great tip: Use a large 1 Gallon Jar as a super fun clear ice bucket or a Champagne chiller like shown.

In the end, a thoughtfully styled New Year’s Eve bar cart sets the tone for an unforgettable celebration. With a gold fringe wall, grey honeycomb orbs, and a clock centerpiece, your bar cart will be both functional and Instagram-worthy. Cheers to a stylish start to the new year!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
