Last Sunday, hubby and I went to the flea market like we usually do some weekends.  I came across a few items but, this gold table stopped me in my tracks. A gentleman was selling it for $5. I got him down to $4 I could’nt be happier. My vision for it was a Bar Cart.

 

Gold accessories, are making a huge comeback. As some of you may know I’m a very thrifty shopper. You don’t have to spend alot of money to make your space beautiful.  Your bar can be anything from a tray to a small side table. Basically anything with a flat surface and easy accessibility.

The brass and the glass insert were in terrfic shape. It was just a little dull.

 Valspar Metallic spray paint made a huge difference.

 

Here’s…. the after!

 

Let’s start with my little bulldog. Isn’t he cute….. I found him at Goodwill for $1.98 he was black and I spray painted him white.

 

The gold vase is not really a vase. It’s a candle holder I purchased from Tjmaxx on clearance for $3. The little ice bucket was a thrifty find I got years ago. The drink shaker I always had. I added a expandable bracelet I found at he flea market for $1 and placed around it. I’m really loving the glitzy glamorous look.

 

The gold rim wine glasses was a wedding gift from my mom. It also came with a matching decantur.

 

This blingy high heel shoe wine holder I purchased from Kirkland’s on sale for $9. Perfect fit for my fave bottle of red wine

 

This bottle of wine is very…very…special to my husband. As you may already know he did 22 years in the Marine Corps. I’m very proud of him and his accomplishment’s. While he traveled the world he got this wine from Italy 14 years ago.

 

 

My silver and gold basket was a flea market find as well. I use it for all occasions. Any garnishes will do. Here, I placed  lemon and limes inside.

 

My white kitty was a gift from my mom as well.” Thanks Mom!” Kitty looks very good next to the bar cart.

 

Goodwill is the place to go for anything vintage or not…. I got this ice bucket for $5 it fits the gold bar cart theme. It was a little tarnished so, I used Wright’s Silver Cream to bring it back to life.

 

 

 And here’s the after……

 

Food for thought… You don’t need to have alot of money to have glam and style in your home. If you want to achieve this look first shop your home. Decorate your bar cart just like you would decorate your home. Whatever you don’t have try a thrifty shop to fill in what you need. This may be your next thrifty find to your glam find. Enjoy!
