Bar Styling with AnthologyHouse

Lonny
 There is nothing more chic to me than a beautifully styled bar. As you see from all these examples, beyond the essentials, one of the best ways to infuse your bar with style and personality is by adding some vintage pieces. Vintage glassware, ice buckets, and pitchers are functional as well as elegant choices. Also be sure to add a fun vintage piece or two like a brass animal, foo dogs, a pair of Chinese figurines, a pineapple - whatever reflects your style. I have a giraffe, a hippo, and a pineapple on my bar cart.

One of the best sources anywhere for vintage pieces for your bar (and for stunning vintage bar carts) is AnthologyHouse. I hope you have already visited their wonderful Etsy store here. They have also just partnered with Chairish for larger items, furniture, and high end vintage pieces. Very exciting news! Chairish is an online consignment marketplace for design obsessed people to buy and sell exceptional pre-owned home furnishings. Chairish has been featured in many magazines including House Beautiful, Elle Decor, and Country Living.

Below I have included some of my favorite AnthologyHouse vintage decor for styling your bar. With holiday entertaining around the corner, this is a great time for it.

  5. Thanks for this! I just "revised" my bar cart layout. What do you do with your outdoor ginger jars in the wintertime? I just brought mine inside where they are displayed on either side of the bar cart.
