Decorating a golf cart is honestly such a fun way to add personality and excitement to any event—parade, holiday, or just a random weekend get-together. Trust me, a well-decorated golf cart really makes an occasion pop and brings a smile to everyone’s face.
With a little creativity, you can turn an ordinary golf cart into a unique showpiece. I’m sharing some inspiring ideas to help you decorate your own golf cart in style—maybe you’ll find something that sparks your imagination.
1. LED Under Glow Lights
I love using LED under glow lights for a fun nighttime vibe. They come in tons of colors—red, green, blue, yellow, you name it.
With a wireless remote, I can switch up the colors easily. Installation’s not too tricky, and they fit most golf carts I’ve seen.
2. American Flag Bunting
American flag bunting always gives my cart a classic, bold look. I just hang it along the roof and front. It’s perfect for parades or summer get-togethers—kind of hard to go wrong with patriotic flair.
3. String Lights Wrapped Around Frame
String lights are my go-to for a cozy, twinkly effect. I wrap them around roof supports, bumpers, or really any bars I can find. Battery-powered ones are the easiest—no fussing with the cart’s wiring.
4. Floral Garland Accents
Floral garland accents bring a fresh, colorful vibe. I’ll use real or artificial flowers, depending on the mood (and how much time I want to spend). Usually, I wrap them around the roof frame or drape them along the sides—looks polished but not overdone.
5. Custom Painted Theme Wrap
Custom painted wraps are where I really get to show off. Whether it’s flames, sports teams, or just wild patterns, I can pick colors and graphics that totally match my style.
If I get bored, I just peel off the wrap and try something new. That’s the beauty of it—no commitment issues here.
6. Inflatable Outdoor Decorations
Inflatable decorations are a blast—so easy, so eye-catching. I’ve spotted giant flamingos, animals, and all sorts of themed shapes. They’re simple to attach to the roof or sides, and they add a playful look to any event.
7. Hanging Ornaments and Signs
I like dangling small hanging ornaments from the mirror or roof frame. Sometimes I’ll hang up a banner or sign too. It’s a fun way to show off a message or holiday theme without going overboard.
8. Grass Turf Overlay
Artificial grass turf is quirky but I’m into it—it gives the cart a fresh, outdoorsy look. I’ll cut it to fit the roof, seats, or floor. It’s quick, and honestly, people always comment on it.
9. Candy Cane and Holiday Candy Decor
Red and white stripes instantly give that candy cane vibe. I’ll wrap ribbon or tape around the cart, then add giant plastic candy canes or fake candy props to the front or back.
A couple bows finish it off—simple, but it works. It’s a sweet look for the holidays (pun intended, sorry).
10. Friends TV Show Theme Decorations
Turning my cart into a mini Central Perk? Yes, please. I’ll add a “Friends” sign, coffee cup props, and toss in some yellow and purple balloons. Hanging a faux picture frame on the front—like Monica’s door—just seals the deal.
11. Pirate Ship Design Elements
I cut cardboard or foam to make ship sides, then attach a pirate flag and a couple plastic barrels for a fun touch.
With a ship wheel, fake cannons, some rope, anchor props, and gold coins, the cart starts looking like it’s ready to set sail—well, almost.
12. Colorful Balloon Clusters
Colorful balloon clusters are always a hit—they add instant cheer. I just pick balloons to match the event, tie them to the roof or back, and I’m done.
It’s simple, but people notice. Especially during parades or parties, you can’t miss a cart decked out in bright balloons.
13. Battery-Powered Lanterns
I love grabbing a few battery-powered lanterns when I want an easy, safe way to light up my golf cart. No need to fuss with wiring—just pop in some AA or AAA batteries and you’re good to go. I usually hang them along the roof or side rails; it’s honestly a breeze.
