The holiday season is my favorite time to change the style of my bar cart. I love to make little drink stations with hot cocoa and lots of yummy toppings. It’s fun to make it festive for the seasons, especially when there’s so much entertaining and get-togethers are happening. So I’ve compiled some holiday bar cart essentials perfect for the holiday season.
Chic Bar Accessories
Every bar cart needs some chic bar accessories. Some staples include a chic bottle opener, a cocktail shaker, and shot glasses. I love the wintery look the faux fur wine bag gives. Keep your accessories on the bar cart for an elegant display until it’s time for cocktails.

Beautiful Glassware
Think about the types of drinks you plan on serving most often. This will help you choose the glassware that is essential. Mixing and matching pretty glasses can create an eclectic and visually appealing bar cart.
Quartz Crystal Statement Pieces
Add a touch of organic glamour with quartz bar accessories. My favorite decor pieces are the decorative quartz pieces on my bar cart: the gold gilded quartz cheeseboard and matching bottle opener are so beautiful and luxurious. The cheeseboard is stunning for entertaining, and I use it instead as a display for glassware. It’s such a statement piece that elevates the whole look of your bar cart.
Holiday Decorations
Of course you need some holiday decor! I styled my bar cart with a gold decorative tree and large gold disco ball ornament. Hang ornaments on your bar cart or tuck them inside your glassware. Baubles in coordinating colors with your theme will tie everything together. I have also wrapped garland around the cart for some fun. Drape battery-powered string lights around your bar cart to create a cozy, twinkling ambiance.
I have also used my bar cart as a hot chocolate bar. To create a cute little hot cocoa station, I included some hot cocoa powder, candy drink stirrers, and toppings like crushed candy cane, caramel bits and marshmallows. The possibilities are endless. I separated the cocoa and toppings in pretty gold trays. I have some metallic paper straws that were festive and fun, so I put those in a shot glass.
