My Coffee Cabinet Makeover (Removable Wallpaper, Berkey Water Filter Storage and Organization)

A spot for every part and every part as a substitute is my mission for this yr, however the fact is I actually acquired impressed for it final yr with a number of easy tasks that I haven’t shared on the weblog but!

I began getting these cupboards organized final fall as part of a enjoyable cozy dwelling problem HomeBodies did in HomeBody Gathering Place.

In our renovation we had cabinetry designated in our eating space for our espresso making space and our Berkey Water filter. Whereas we don’t have a flowery espresso station or water filtration system, what now we have works nice for us so I needed to make it as purposeful and arranged as I might.

I put up this lovable peel and stick wallpaper on the again of the cupboard, only for enjoyable — it makes the entire expertise of getting ready espresso extra charming. It was so easy to do!

Earlier than I clarify the group, here’s a checklist of some cupboard and organizing provides I used:

This cupboard organizer shelf

This wooden lazy Susan

This plastic tray underneath the espresso devices

Milk frother/steamer (love this one, it’s chrome steel as a substitute of poisonous nonstick coating!)

These blue and white buffalo verify lidded canisters

Espresso grinder

Botanical espresso mugs

Blue and white geometric sample espresso mug

This complete group challenge took me lower than half-hour to make the additions and enhancements, so I want I had completed this ages in the past! However I’m glad I lastly did it. Now that this cupboard is further cute, I’m impressed to maintain the cupboard extra organized, too!

Organizing the Espresso Cupboard (a spot for every part!)

I made a decision we must always use the 2 higher cabinets just for serving platters. I’ve no different cupboard for them so this made sense! Our cabinets are adjustable so I can rearrange later if desired.

To make higher use of the remainder of the cupboard house, with out making it feeling too cluttered, I added some tiered accent cabinets to raise a few of the mugs and manage provides.

This cupboard now holds solely the mugs we’ll be utilizing usually this season (that is key, we can’t maintain EVERY mug on this cupboard!) We put the mugs on the Lazy Susan and some others that can sit subsequent to it on the tiered cabinets. No extra cluttered cupboard! Our further mugs are saved within the cupboard beneath.

I additionally acquired a set of cute checkered canisters to carry espresso beans and spoons.

We maintain this tray underneath our espresso grinder and the milk steamer/frother to make it simpler to wash up the cupboard from the inevitable messes made whereas grinding espresso and steaming milk.

We nonetheless use this stovetop espresso brewer (sometime we’ll get a fancier machine, however we’ve used this for years and it’s so easy and makes good espresso)!.

Organizing Our Berkey Water Filter Cupboard

We used to have the Berkey sitting on a bench in our mudroom, however this was at all times my supposed spot for it. It’s secure from little arms and puppies and so handy for grown individuals to make use of. The drawer beneath the Berkey pulls out so we will simply fill it and we put a tray and mat underneath it to catch any drips or overflow.

We put our Berkey on this stand so we will simply get a glass underneath it to fill. Works nice!

Sometime we might get an entire home filter (or a brand new one on the kitchen sink like we had prior to now) however we’re completely proud of this association.

The cupboard cabinets above and beneath the Berkey maintain our fairly blue and inexperienced ingesting glasses, electrical sizzling water kettles (I’ve this copper and this blue kettle) and different useful gadgets.

A Place for All the things

Despite the fact that it’s at all times been good to have all of those cupboards to retailer stuff, having a spot for every part and every part as a substitute signifies that now I actually get pleasure from utilizing these areas as they’re supposed (and luxuriate in maintaining them organized!) day by day.

Small Area Tip

The doorways on the espresso cupboard slide again in in order that they don’t stick out into the room — it is a useful small house hack if you’re getting new cupboards :).

Now that it’s so cute I may even depart the espresso station open every time I need to!

Our dwelling is probably not big, however I needed to make each house rely. I pictured a comfortable, snug, orderly place proper right here within the eating room the place household and mates might collect round and chat whereas making espresso or tea. I’m completely satisfied to have created a pleasing expertise for everybody!
