Many people can't start their day without their daily cup of coffee, and that daily run to Starbucks isn't doing your wallet any favors. The solution? Save money by setting up a coffee bar at home! Here's some ideas that will help you stay organized and on budget.
Counter Space A compact coffeemaker doesn't take up a lot of space, easily fitting into a small corner on the counter top which is perfect if you have a smaller kitchen. Hang up your mugs or fun decor near the coffeemaker to dress the space up.
Sideboards Any type of sideboard makes for a great coffee bar, especially if kept in a living room or by the front door so that it's ready to go for guests. The drawers/cabinets are great for holding the extra mugs and supplies.
Hutches Hutches combined the perfect amount of storage and aesthetics. They are capable of holding a lot more than just a coffee maker. Adding a couple of hooks lets you show off your mugs and anything else you want to display. Everything else can fit in the cabinets and drawers.
Hidden Away This may require some planning, but a little hidden nook on your counter top or inside a cabinet is an easy and accessible idea for your coffee station. It's perfect for keeping out of reach of those little hands.
Floating Shelves
For even more limited counter space, consider installing floating shelves. Mugs, coffee canisters and more can be hung up and arranged to your liking.
Now that you have some ideas, it's time to start crafting your own coffee-drinking paradise. Need help creating the home of your dreams? Call Adolfson Interior Design at (651) 468-6208 or email kirstin.h@comcast.net.
