Blogger Stacey Cartwright [1] loves to entertain, so naturally, a beautiful bar cart has been high on her home wish list. The problem? Finding one that didn't blow her decorating budget. Since bar carts are tough to find at really affordable prices, Stacey decided to go the secondhand route, and it paid off! While perusing a garage sale, she stumbled upon this rusted cart for just $2.

Sure, it was covered in rust, but using an electric drill with a wire-brush attachment took most of it off. Next, Stacey primed and painted the cart and created a herringbone pattern with a ruler.

To finish it off, Stacey styled the cart with a bowl of citrus, fresh flowers, and a tray to organize her glasses.
