The opulence of Jay Gatsby's mansion in 'The Great Gatsby' is truly captivating. Recreate the Roaring Twenties vibe with a DIY Art Deco bar cart. Find a metallic, preferably gold, bar cart and adorn it with vintage glassware, cocktail shakers, and a chic ice bucket. Adding geometric patterned accessories and a bottle of champagne will evoke the decadent spirit of Gatsby's extravagant parties.

Complete the setting with warm lighting to create the perfect reading atmosphere.
