For many of us, coffee is a delicious hot drink that we simply can’t live without. It’s the centre of our mornings, our comfort and our social lives! You may have seen people all over social media with their fancy coffee set-ups… and we’re here to tell you how to make one yourself, so you can enjoy your favourite hot beverage in a cosy nook in your home.
After you've selected the perfect spot in your kitchen, the first thing you’ll need is your coffee, of course! Whether you prefer to use a coffee machine or enjoy the taste of fresh coffee from a cafetiere, find something that will give you that true sigh of relief after a long day.
Another essential is your mugs. Choose some cute cosy mugs to place in your coffee corner, ready to grab when you want that soothing hot drink you’ve been dying for. Your mugs can be central to creating the desired look for this space, so decide if you want minimalistic, cosy or chic. Place them on a mug tree for easy storage and an added bit of décor, or even use a wall-mounted one to save counter space.
Next, you’ll want to add some super chic storage. You can opt for your classic coffee cannisters for a traditional feel, or decant your coffee and sugar into glass jars for an ultra-aesthetic look! Make sure to add some spoons in to stir your drinks, too. You could even display them in a nice tumbler for a more stylish presentation.
No coffee is quite complete without a delicious flavour, so make sure to add some syrups to your coffee corner! Whether you like to add a sweet kick of caramel or toasty hazelnut, decanting your syrups into soap dispensers is a unique way to bring a modern and stylish flair to your corner.
Now you have the basics, you can begin to construct your coffee corner. Using a stand is great for creating depth and making the most of your storage space if there isn’t a shelf available, or a tray creates luxury and dimension, elevating your coffee corner from just a plain worktop.
With everything you need in place, it’s time to accessorise! Add in some artificial plants or flowers, to breathe some life into your coffee corner and add a pop of colour. For a classic café feel, put up some coffee-themed wall décor to tie it all together. This is your chance to truly personalise your space, transforming it into your own personal haven.
If you don’t like coffee, there are plenty of things you can do to make this the perfect space for you. Whether you make a hot chocolate station filled with marshmallows and sweet treats, or a tranquil tea corner with a variety of flavours, anyone can create their own personal nook!
