Do You Have a Home Coffee Station?

I'm probably one of the last people I know to invest in a Keurig, but I finally did. With cool fall days ahead, the lure of quick single cups of coffee and hot chocolate was just too tempting. I figured though that if I was going to get a Keurig, I might as well have some fun with the color. I chose "Oasis", a pale turquoise,  just for fun!

It was coincidental that a few days after my coffee maker arrived from Amazon, I happened upon this discussion on Houzz, entitled, "Do You Have a Coffee Station In Your Home?". My new Keurig was on the kitchen counter but the photos from Houzz and other internet sites encouraged me to add to it to make my own "Coffee Station". Here are a few of my inspiration photos . . .


The white tiles in the photo above reminded me of my kitchen and I loved the use of galvanized metal to hold coffee supplies in the two photos below.

A three-tier galvanized stand was too tall to fit under my cabinets but I found a two-tier one that is perfect. They are available online but I happened to have a 50%off coupon at JoAnn's Fabrics, where they had the same one I was about to  order from Amazon. Under $15.00 and it holds creamer, sugar, Sweet 'n Low, utensils, coffee pods, and two mugs. Perfect!

The little white-framed chalkboard was all of $5.00 at Target, in the "Wedding" section of the Stationery Department of all places!

I love this farmhouse-inspired coffee station.

And this coffee station (below) on a vintage wooden ironing board! I recently posted about the wooden ironing board I just bought but didn't see this in time for my post. What a unique idea!

I always thought I'd like a coffee station in our Master bedroom but decided that, with the layout of our house, it would probably be more trouble than it's worth.  I also thought it would still involve a trip downstairs unless we had room for a mini-frige and bar sink in the MBR as well. (We don't.)

But I'm really happy with the little "Coffee Corner" I did create, inspired by photos from favorite decorating sites.

Do you have a "Coffee Station" at your house?

If you were only a little closer, I'd invite you over for a cup of coffee at mine!
