If you want to design your own, start by selecting a suitable corner or countertop that’s easily accessible but doesn’t disrupt your kitchen workflow. Consider the area near a window for natural light or a cozy nook that complements the overall design of your kitchen.
When it comes to the layout, think about creating a dedicated space for your coffee machine, grinder, and other brewing equipment. This not only keeps things organized but also establishes a coffee-centric focal point.
Arrange your equipment logically, ensuring that you have enough counter space to prepare your coffee comfortably.
To infuse your personal style into the coffee bar, choose a theme that aligns with your kitchen’s aesthetics. Whether it’s a sleek and modern look, a rustic farmhouse vibe, or a minimalist approach, make sure your coffee bar seamlessly blends with the existing design. This can be achieved through the choice of materials, colors, and decorative elements.
Lighting plays a crucial role in setting the right ambiance. Consider installing library lights to illuminate your coffee bar area effectively. This not only enhances visibility but also adds a warm, inviting glow that entices you to enjoy your coffee moments.
Storage is essential in a small space, so incorporate clever solutions. Install floating shelves or small cabinets above the coffee bar to store cups, mugs, and coffee beans.
Use decorative containers for storing sugar, creamer, and stirrers, keeping everything within arm’s reach.
Designing a small coffee bar in your kitchen is about finding a balance between aesthetics and functionality.
By incorporating your personal style, optimizing space, and ensuring convenience, you can create a delightful coffee corner where you can savor your favorite brews
in the comfort of your own home.
What’s your favorite way to create a coffee bar at home?
Welcome to Peachtree Bluff: a cozy coastal town where family secrets refuse to be washed away by the tide and close-knit community is everything. As New York Times bestselling author Kristy Woodson Harvey reunites the Murphy crew just in time for pumpkin spice season, “we dare you not to wish you were a member of this family” (E!).
Eldest sister Caroline has never been happier. The family business is thriving, her kids are great, and her sister Emerson’s hunky costar has absolutely swept her off her feet. But when her not-quite-ex-husband decides it’s high time he begged Caroline for a second chance, she is thrown into the midst of a love triangle she never saw coming. Caroline is the family fixer and, when her sisters Sloane and Emerson and daughter Vivi need her help with their troubles, she has to decide whether to swoop in and save them—or if it’s finally time to focus on what she wants.
Matriarch Ansley and her new husband, Jack, have finally hit their stride. But when a scandal rips through Peachtree Bluff—and Jack just might be at the center of it—Ansley is left questioning whether the man she has loved since she was sixteen years old, the man she fought so hard to be with, is actually who she thought he was at all.
The air is crisper, the water is calmer, but when it comes to the Murphy family, nothing is ever quite as simple as it seems… Through it all, these Southern women must rely on their powerful family bonds and the quirky characters and small-town charm of the place that, no matter what, always calls them home. This is the kind of heartfelt fall treat that “readers will unwrap with glee” (Mary Kay Andrews, New York Times bestselling author) from the “go-to for elevated beach reads” (People).
