Inexpensive DIY Coffee Station

Happy Monday, friends!  I hope you had a great weekend.  We are gearing up for a busy week and weekend ahead — trying to soak in as much relaxation as possible before things get crazy.  😉

Welcome to our kitchen!  Grab a cup of coffee and let’s look around a bit…

A couple of weeks ago, I wrote a post about our hall entry from the garage and how we maximized organization in that small space using IKEA’s Fintorp system.  We were perusing IKEA one weekend and loved how there were so many ways to use it.  We decided we would purchase one for our entry, and one for our kitchen.

DIY Entryway Organization

This is the 22.5″ rail (we used the 31″ rail in our hallway).  The hooks come in a pack of 5 for $2.99.  WHAT?!  That’s a lot of joy for under $5.  😉  We did buy these mugs at IKEA for just a few dollars each.  I’m really excited to display our Spode mugs during the Christmas season.  The little basket is from Target from a while back and holds our Nespresso pods.

You might be wondering about these chalkboard signs.  My brother made these for us for our wedding and a couple of Christmases ago, he restored the writing and sprayed something over them to make it permanent.  To this day it is my favorite gift I have ever received.  These will follow us from house to house, always.  I love that he did this for us.

I wrote about our Limoges china a while back and our set includes these adorable tiny mugs that are perfect for espresso shots.  Usually I have some small Duralex glasses resting on top of this tray, but I think these flowery sipping mugs are perfect for Spring.

Thanks so much for stopping by!  😉  Here’s to a great week!
