What I should have had for my birthday...

A bar at home

I nearly purchased this beautiful bar cart below from Restoration Hardware, but at $400 (on sale!), I couldn't quite pull the trigger!

For those without the room or budget for one of these beautiful bar carts, what about a gorgeous tray table?

Here is my little whiskey bar in my living room, complete with gorgeous Ralph Lauren glasses:

If you don't have a room for a bar, why not indulge in some beautiful bar accessories?

Ralph Lauren "Glen Plaid" and "Argyle" Crystal Glassware

This beautiful Broughton decanter is also from Ralph Lauren (but with a $595 price tag... yikes!)

This fantastic decanter is only $12.40 on Amazon! I may have to buy it...

Rock Candy

One of my fondest childhood memories is going on school field trips & buying rock candy in the gift shops. With those days (unfortunately) long behind me, I have discovered a new love of rock candy: cocktail stirrers. Brilliant!

I also adore these rock candy inspired cocktail rings. Quite a statement!

Apothecary Jars

I absolutely love the look of apothecary jars. They are one of the cheapest and most simple ways to decorate a space. Whether you fill them with fruit, candy, or ornaments, they are absolutely stunning.

I also am obsessed with apothecary jar styled beverage dispensers. I often fill mine with the easiest party drink ever: vodka (preferably sweet tea flavored), lemonade, lemon juice & some floating lemon slices. Perfection!

You can buy apothecary jars from Pottery Barn, but you'll be spending about $39-$69 per jar. I recommend you go to places like Home Goods, TJMaxx, or Marshalls. All the ones I have purchased cost around $10 a jar!
