Spring Bar Cart Party Styling Tips + Tricks

Thanks to Nicole from Chandelier By NK for sharing her Spring Bar Cart Styling Tips while I’m on maternity leave enjoying my sweet baby girl. I’ll be back soon with more party ideas, DIY’s, crafts, recipes, and more!

Hi, I’m Nicole of Chandelier By NK, and we make fun, glam acrylic chandeliers in bright colors and designs!

I jumped at a chance of guest blogging for Laura while she has her baby. Our theme was Spring and what better way to accessorize your spring bar cart than with happy colors, cake, and a glamorous chandelier!

Spring Bar Cart Styling Tips:

Tip 1: Decorate with easy, inexpensive garland (if you tape them like we did they will not ruin your walls).

We tucked some roses in our pink champagne bucket, and broke out the mini light box. We love our mini light box because it’s a small decorative element that really enhances a space.

Words carry impact, so why not use it for positive thoughts with the seasons?

Tip 2: A jar full of fake flowers makes a big impact with little cost.

Flowers in a jar look great without giving off that fake flower feel.

I like to put them on the floor to accent my spring bar cart, or in a corner, unexpectedly.

Did you see the hints of 2018 Pantone color of the year, Ultra Violet, throughout our party? I always feel like purple, pink and turquoise are welcoming colors for Spring and they transition well into Summer. I enjoy pairing bold bright colors, with pastels too.

Don’t be afraid of color! Embrace it, and watch how it opens up your home and life.

Tip 3: Buy fun melamine plates throughout the year and save them for fun table settings.

One of my favorite things currently are agate plate toppers. And that purple and gold!

Pair stripes with florals for a fun punch on your spring bar cart. You can grab these personalized, calligraphy agate toppers on Etsy or on Instagram.

Tip 4: Involve your kids.

My daughter is 3, and she loves helping me plan parties and styled shoots with our chandeliers.

She is invested in picking out colors and has big opinions already on how things should look. She insisted on this crown and I was happy to oblige.

Once your spring bar cart party is over, kid proof your bar cart and bring in some elements that allow them to use it too: kid snacks, a crown, and some silly photo accessories like mustaches and masks.

Tip 5: Cake, and then more cake.

Did I mention cake? Clearly I have a cake problem, but it is such an easy way to dress up a bar cart quickly for guests, a kid party, or to celebrate Spring!

I like getting pre-made cakes (because I have no time or baking skills!) and then I put fun little toppers on them! Hello purple glitter egg!

Nothing says Spring like eggs. I really love how versatile they are in decorating.

Tip 6: Have fun!

Sometimes parties can seem daunting to plan or design, but they don’t have to be.

Just pick a color or a spectrum of complimentary colors, and accessorize. Pick one meal to gather everyone around. With Spring, anything is possible!

Thanks for coming along to my little Spring party. Check out our chandeliers and website for more information on how to decorate a space or party with them!

About Chandelier By NK: We are a modern acrylic decor company, that started as an idea to create an easy, chic chandelier without lights. The idea of making a chandelier and then flipping it on it’s head and redefining it was so much fun! What makes our acrylic chandeliers unique and one-of-a-kind is the design. We pair modern, chic designs with bright colors and crystals. Acrylic is such a fun medium to work with! It’s luminescent and bold. With freedom from lights, the chandeliers can be hung anywhere you can position a hook or wire. Acrylic can work both inside or outside, which frees up your creativity.
