Backyard Beverage Bar On Wheels
July 4th is just around the corner, and I found this fabulous idea for a mobile bar I can use at my party! I’m thrilled. I can definitely use the additional space for beverages, and this will work just perfectly. Thank you Ana White for your DIY expertise. What an excellent design and just in time before the big event.
My friend Jen wanted to make a serving cart / bar cart / island or in general awesome work table in festive Fourth of July colors, so we worked on a design together and guess what?
This awesomeness happened!!!
