I LOVE my coffee, almost as much as I love my wine! We have a typical percolator, Keurig, Tassimo and French Press. Plus a tea pot and kettle. It’s a lot to keep organized, accessible and not cluttered looking. Add in 2 kids who love hot chocolate on a cold day and we to find a solution. I had seen adorable pictures of coffee nooks and knew I wanted something similar. Except I had a small budget, limited space and wanted something I could modify as our needs changed.
I browsed online for options, and stumbled across a shelf that met my needs at JYSK. It was floor model too, so discounted, assembled and in great shape. Add a few baskets from there too and I was ready to go. I found a couple hangers and a cute tin from Dollarama, was given mugs from my local Buy Nothing group and my coffee corner was set. It felt great to get our items off the counter and into their own little nook.
I recently added a third area, to make it a 3×3 area. I have 6 baskets, 2 for coffee items, 2 for tea, 1 for hot chocolate and 1 for extra travel mugs. Two of our top shelves hold the most used coffee mugs for easy access when we’re tired in the morning. The third holds the tea pot, everyday coffee pods, sugar and the french press.
Everything is accessible, within hands reach and easy to keep clean and organized.
