It’s mid July and we are in full on summer mode at our house! The house is messy, the pool is hopping, the snacks are never ending and we are staying up crazy late watching movies every night. Pure bliss! Other than the messy house. But I can roll with that for the sake of July.
August is a different story. :)
I want to introduce you to a recent favorite for outdoor entertaining!
When I first saw this wicker drink cart on-line it was love at first sight! I had actually been debating a very similar drink cart to use by our pool that was a lot more expensive. I was hesitant to buy it and I’m so grateful I didn’t because I love this even more and the price was so good! I also love that it has wheels on one side. It’s so easy to move around!

It’s just the right size for dinks, glasses, a few snacks or drink toppings. Perfect for a day of swimming or just visiting outside with friends!
If you check this bar cart out on-line you’ll see that it actually comes with a cute wicker tray that I know I’ll use often too. This past weekend I used this cute serve tray bowl set. The bowls are the perfect size to hold fruit for the drinks! (This would also be cute for hamburger or ice cream toppings!)
I set these ribbed tumblers out on this oval iron tray. I love the look of these tumblers and that they don’t break. Ideal for kids!
The oval iron tray I used on top looks cute with this medium sized tray that’s perfect to hold ice and drinks. (It comes in a large size too!) I love the rattan detail around the handles on all 3 trays. Adds a little something extra. :)
So fun for warm days by the pool! When my kids have friends over to swim everyone is usually in and out of the kitchen getting drinks. This will be so handy to use for drinks or snacks or pizza or whatever we’re serving and it keeps the kids outside! Maybe I’ll end up with a clean house in July after all? :) I’m excited to use this when we have friends over too. Aside from drinks it’s perfect to hold a salad or hamburger toppings, etc. when it’s time to BBQ.
These are a few more entertaining favorites from Walmart! Some of these items I’ve had a while and a few are recent finds I’m excited about.
{drinking glasses/serving set}
The tumblers I shared above won’t break and are perfect for kids, but if you want some nice drinking glasses this is a beautiful set of 8 for a great price! I’m always looking for serving sets to use for healthy snacks in the summer and love this white and bamboo set. It even has a little spot in the middle to hold toothpicks for the kids. :)
This condiment board set is so much fun! Cute with the bowls but you could also take the bowls off and use the stand for decor. It could hold anything from a plant and candle to hand and dish soap by the sink to a cake when it’s time to party! It’s giving me warm, earthy vibes so perfect for fall entertaining/decor too.

These are great melamine dishes for every day I’ve had for a while (cute patterns on the bowls!) and I’ve loved this large wooden bowl for salads.
{round charcuterie board/square charcuterie board/rectangle condiment tray}
Favorite boards for every day! You might remember that I gave several of these to friends for Christmas gifts last year. Such a good price on stylish charcuterie boards! The fun rectangle condiment tray is another outdoor dining staple! All of these beautiful serving options make it so fun to entertain don’t they!? Makes me want to have friends over for a BBQ stat! I just need to convince my husband to come up with the actual food. ;)
Cheers to staying hydrated in the summer! In style. :)

That’s a fantastic wicker cart. It’s a perfect addition to summer gatherings. Well done! And your Walmart goodies are great finds, too. You have such a great eye for this kind of thing. I appreciate all the effort you take to hunt these down for your readers. Makes me kind of miss the pool I had growing up. But we never had any of these fun things. We slip/slid to the kitchen. Haha! Happy July entertaining!
Thank you Jeanne! I know.. my goal is to keep the kids from slip/sliding into the kitchen and staying outside instead.. ha! ;) Wish I could have you over to swim and chat! You are the sweetest. :)
LOVE this cart! Would be cute even inside, maybe a sunroom? I know someone who uses a similar cart in their beach place in place of a nightstand!
Looks very summery/”beach house”!
Thank you so much Sherri! I thought so too! I love the beach vibe. Fun idea using it as a nightstand! Nancy Meyers all the way! Love her. :)
PS. The cart-very Nancy Meyers! :)
