Where is the bar from? - I need a small bar with some storage for liquids (not all wine) and I want something that can be moved easily....I was thinking rolling cart - but this looks so nice. It will be against a window normally, so do need some protection from light. Any ideas? »
Give your glasses a run through the dishwasher before a soiree. Allow their sparkle to add to the grandeur of your display.
How will you serve your guests this holiday season?
Spot clean. You won’t have time to scrub the baseboards, but you can fake a clean house pretty easily. Stow clutter where it belongs (or shove it into a closet), wipe kitchen and bath surfaces, damp-mop floors and run a dustcloth over furniture. Dim the lights or break out a few candles — low light is forgiving. And don’t forget that as soon as you have more than three people in your house, no one will notice whether you remembered to polish the chandelier crystals.More: See what you can do when you have a whole week to prep!
I don't have much of an idea for protecting it from the sun light, except look for an already distressed piece that looks like it was meant to be!
