Sip, sip, hooray, summer is on it’s way! And you know what that means – it’s time for outdoor entertaining! I love entertaining, but summer entertaining is one of my favorite ways to hang out with family and friends. I teamed up with my friends at DecoArt to create a colorful DIY Outdoor Bar Cart to get ready for all the pool parties, porch sitting, and backyard BBQ’s!
When I think of summer entertaining I think of bright, bold colors. Last year I discovered the bright Americana Decor Outdoor Living paint colors when I created this DIY Lazy Susan and I’ve been in love ever since! These bright, bold specially designed acrylic paints are perfect for outdoor projects. Americana Decor® Outdoor Living™ gives a durable, weather-resistant finish to interior and exterior home decor projects. With a beautiful eggshell finish it doesn’t require an additional sealer and there is no need to sand or prime before using.
In the summer we throw lots of impromptu pool parties or backyard BBQ’s and they where some of my favorite memories are made. While these events are low key, I still like to make them extra special for our guest. Having a colorful drink station is a way to not only add a touch of whimsy but provide variety and function for your guest.
Make sure you head over t0 the DecoArt Blog to see the step-by-step tutorial for this colorful DIY Outdoor Bar Cart. It’s the perfect little bar cart to put in the backyard for an impromptu BBQ with friends, or wheel it out by the pool for a refreshing hydrations station. No matter where you put this colorful cart, it’s sure to make your summer celebrations colorful, extraordinary and fun!

What a cute outdoor cart! I saw this on a link party. Would you happen to remember where you found the unfinished cart?
Mariah says
Thank you Vanessa! Yes, this unfinished cart came from Michael’s, I just saw it there again the other day so hopefully you can find one at a store near you.
