1. bet on differentiated designs

In an environment with minimalist furniture and contemporary style, the option for a bar cart with a more rustic design, referring to the countryside, could not be more correct. Ideal for those who are not afraid of daring and contrasting styles.

2. enchants any corner of the house

As it does not have ample measurements, it can bring an extra charm to a space that would be left blank in the residence. Here it was positioned next to the stairway, filling and decorating the spacious white wall, showing even more its functionality.

3. fulfilling other functions

Demonstrating its versatility, here the bar cart does not accommodate drinks, but books. Positioned in front of a bright green wall, it creates a beautiful contrast with its originally brown color, referring to the very common shades of nature.

4. as a decorative piece

Resulting in a composition full of style and beauty, here the furniture is multifunctional: it stores from glasses, glass bottles, books, and even a beautiful vase with vibrant yellow flowers. Highlighted by the mixture of materials in its composition: wood and metal in copper tone.

5. various shades of wood

In this large integrated room, wood tones and undertones are the star. Following this maxim, the bar cart was positioned in a way that helps divide the living and dining room.

6. fits in every little space

Although this kitchen has more modest measurements, the bar cart is guaranteed space when positioned below the shelves. Since the kitchen has lighter tones, including a wall with white and blue tiles, the dark tone of the wood makes the item stand out.

7. add color to the furniture

Although most of them are made of wood in its natural color, a good option for those looking for striking furniture is to add a coat of your favorite color. Here the furniture has even lost its wheels, becoming fixed in the space.

8. making decoration more fun

In a vibrant yellow tone, this cart made entirely of wood was positioned in front of a brick wall, full of pictures, banners, and differentiated frames, leaving the decoration of the environment light and relaxed.

9. if well planned, it can accommodate several objects

In this version, the cart has three shelves, with plenty of space for storing decorative objects and cups.

With a minimalist design and delicate pink tone, the cart was designed according to the residents' needs. Beverages are guaranteed a place on the lower shelf, while the upper one has decorative items in copper tone and a beautiful vase of flowers.

11. different styles in perfect harmony

The boiserie, a French technique of adding frames to decorate the walls, is often associated with the classic style of decoration. This project proves that it is possible to use this feature combined with more contemporary decoration and striking design elements.

12. with a differentiated look, full of style

Positioned in front of the wall elaborated with the burnt cement technique, the cart stands out with its dark wood tone and differentiated look. Made through a personalized project, it enchants in every detail.

13. with a traditional, curvy look

14. with pop influence

Although it looks small, it is capable of storing a good amount of items, as long as they are well positioned. Here, besides the drink, books and small dolls with pop references complement the visual and make the environment even more interesting.

15. with special niches for drinks

Its design is already a show apart. Although it is made of metal, its model imitates the natural appearance of bamboo, enriching the visual. In addition, it also has circular niches to accommodate the wine bottles and a special structure to support the glasses.

16. with personality and style design

Another well-designed option with a personalized project, this cart has a mix of materials, with its structure in painted copper metal and shelves and wheel in dark wood. It also has a niche-style tray, ideal for accommodating beautiful flowers.

17. the beauty of simplicity

With a simplistic look, this trolley doesn't have many features or a differentiated design. Just a straight line structure in dark wood is enough for it to fulfill its function of storing drinks and decorative objects. Great option for those looking for something minimalist.

18. with a space all dedicated to the furniture

A special figure in this corner of the house, all the decoration was thought out in order to complement this very useful piece of furniture. To go with it, a circular table with a black metal structure, just like the one used in the cart.

19. the kitchen also has a turn

Although this piece of furniture is often present in dining rooms and entrance halls, the kitchen also gains extra charm when it gains this ally. Here it was positioned next to the cabinet, gaining the company of a wire mesh containing decorative items.

20. and why not in the living room?

The truth is that there is no rule: any environment can receive the bar cart. Here it has a guaranteed space next to the sofa in the TV room, facilitating access to the coffee pot for those who relax and enjoy good moments next to the comfortable piece of furniture.

21. elegance and transparency

Ideal for those who seek refinement and beauty, but without weighing down the visual, this model of bar cart becomes the ideal option. Made of a mix of metal, acrylic, and mirrors, it highlights the beautifully carved wooden piece and the imposing black vase.

22. similar wood tones for a harmonized environment

Demonstrating that planning when decorating can make a difference, this room offers similar shades of wood on different pieces of furniture: from the beautiful bar cart with organic curves to the unusually designed lampshade to the frame of the comfortable sofa.

23. of modest size and great beauty

This model of bar cart is the ideal option for those who have a little space to accommodate it, but do not give up having this piece of furniture in their home. Despite its discrete measurements, it is still able to fulfill its functions masterfully.

24. it is allowed to dare in your look

As it is not a piece of furniture of large proportions, getting a planned project becomes feasible and not very expensive, and there is also the possibility of playing with different materials and shapes, ensuring more personality and functionality to the furniture.

25. renew your look

Regardless of the material it is made of, another advantage of this piece of furniture being smaller in size is that it is easy to renew its look. Whether by adding a new layer of color, different textures, or covering it with stickers, it is fun to give it a new face.

26. take care of the decoration of the space

Because it is not high enough, the ideal is that the wall that accommodates this piece of furniture has other decorative items, such as pictures, banners, plaques, or even signs as in the case of this project, which guarantee a more beautiful and harmonious composition.

Although it is part of the structure of the room, helping to support the kitchen, the column often becomes an element that hinders the decoration of the environment. Here, the bar cart in a vibrant tone was positioned next to it, beautifying it and giving functionality to a corner, sometimes forgotten.

30. gaining new functions

One of the possible and most varied functions for this piece of furniture is to assume the role of a sideboard, becoming the ideal place to accommodate decorative objects and enriching the look of the room.

31. only two wheels

One of the advantages of this piece of furniture is that it can be easily positioned in other places due to its two wheels, which make it easy to move around. Therefore, its use is perfect for occasions with guests at home. Just fill your trays with snacks and drinks and take it for a spin, serving your friends.

32. vintage air and functionality

What calls attention in this space is the differentiated design of this bar cart. With vintage airs, it can even remind you of old sewing machines, with the accordion detail on its structure and dark wood tone. Ideal to transform any environment.

33. with few but beautiful elements

This cart has a modest size, which results in little space to accommodate your decorative elements. Therefore, while the bottles of drinks occupy the lowest shelf of the furniture, the upper one gets a vase of flowers with a distinctive design.

Embellishing an Eclectic Environment

With the possibility of being moved at any time due to its wheels, here the bar cart was positioned in front of the large and imposing bookcase. On its lowest shelf, a set of matrioskas, the multicolored Russian dolls, catch the eye.

Neutral tones never go out of fashion

It is undeniable that neutral tones such as gray, beige, white, and black are wild cards in decoration, not weighing down the environment and allowing easy harmony with other tones.

36. in harmony with the dining table

Made in the same tone and style as the dining table, the bar cart also has a white top, which harmonizes with the table top.

37. giving an old piece of furniture a new function

Here, the metal cabinet with wheels has become a bar cart. With its industrial look and weathered paint, it has become the ideal piece of furniture to accompany the more rustic style conferred by the exposed brick wall and retro armchairs.

38. the ability to accommodate many items

The look of its structure is not very detailed: thick metal beams painted black. The difference is in the arrangement of decorative items, ranging from drinks, colored straws, a globe, and beautiful green foliage to a lamp and unusual pliers.

39 - Positioned on a functional gourmet balcony

The ideal option for those who have plenty of space on the balcony, in this project, which has a large dining table, a beautiful living wall divides the attention with a bar cart. In the background, a countertop still accommodates the coffee maker, complementing the pleasant space for delicious meals and relaxed chats.

40. drinks on top, decoration on the bottom

The look of this cart is surprising: one of its sides is slightly steeper than the other, giving the impression that it is misaligned.

41. with four wheels and plenty of space

Rectangular in shape, this piece of furniture has plenty of room to accommodate the drinks of the residents of this house.

42. colors only in the trays

This tip is ideal for those who want to get away from the furniture with neutral tones but are afraid to overdo it with colors. Here only the trays were painted in red, ensuring that the tone does not show up too much, but still beautifying the environment.

43. use unusual objects in your decoration

With the same look as the previous piece of furniture, here the cart has been joined by wooden cylinders that help accommodate the bottles in style. On the top shelf, the drinks share the space with a vase of flowers and some books.

44. made of bamboo

By using this natural material, the bar cart has gained more charm and style. With a space reserved to accommodate potted plants, it can also be used to assist in the moment of serving a special dinner, carrying the dishes to the dining table.

45. fulfilling the function of a fruit bowl
