10 DIY Home Coffee Stations

5:30 AM By Jana Aplin

The coffee quotes are endless!

“But first…coffee.”

“All you need is love and coffee.”

“All I need to today is a little bit of coffee and a whole lot of Jesus.”

If you like/love/can’t live without coffee, then you probably have a favorite quote etched in your brain and evidenced in your life!

So if coffee is so vitally important, and a regular part of your daily routine, why not create a dedicated space for coffee?

Yep, today we’re talking all about coffee bars and coffee stations! (P.S. Don’t miss the bonus coffee decor ideas at the bottom of this post!)

Coffee Station Essentials

Before we get into the fun designs, we need to talk basics. Here are the essentials that you need to store in your coffee station:

Coffee maker. This one is obvious, but you need a spot for your Mr. Coffee, Nespresso, Keurig, French press, etc. And no longer will this daily used appliance be stuck in a corner! (“No body puts Baby my coffee pot in a corner!”)

Coffee. Yes, this too is obvious! However, mix up your type of coffee. Select quality coffee beans from different locations. Have light and dark roasts. And both caffeine and decaf are a must! (Hint: variety packs of coffee make great gifts!)

Carafe. If you’re going to sip and chat a while, then you’ll want to keep your coffee hot for seconds. So pour your freshly brewed java into a carafe and come back in an hour for your next helping.

Coffee Cups. Maxi mugs, Irish mugs, tea cups, or demitasse, you need space for all varieties of cups! Don’t forget the saucers either.

Spoons. Need to stir in some sugar and milk? Have little spoons handy.

Napkins. To wipe your mouth or to catch a spill quickly!

Sugar, milk, and cream. Everyone likes different varieties of coffee. Have options for yourself and your guests! Have regular sugar, cane sugar, and a substitute, such as Splenda. Stock up little jugs of skim milk, 2%, and cream. Splurge for a few fancy flavored creamers, too!

Coffee Station Ideas

Now, on to the fun part: coffee bar and coffee station ideas!

Instead of paying nearly $2000 for a beloved Pottery Barn cart, make your own for less than $70!

Long and narrow, classic yet modern, this coffee cart would be an excellent addition to every kitchen.

Even if you aren’t a fan of copper, what’s not to love about this piece?! Rods and S-hooks are the perfect way to hang your coffee mugs.

And I love how the Irish coffee mugs sit on top of the shelf, as if that space was created just for that purpose!

Notice the tray complete with your coffee station essentials, plus their pour-over and French press!

Some coffee snobs lovers just require more equipment for their refined tastes.

Therefore, their coffee station isn’t complete without some sort of cabinet with ample storage space, like this one.

Some kitchens come with just enough room for a coffee corner.

Don’t worry, you can still make that corner into a special place! Add baskets, trays, jars, and canisters to complete the coffee corner look!

You’ll have plenty of room for your favorite coffee maker. If you don’t have one yet, go find the best Nespresso Machines available online and perch it in the center of your new coffee corner!

Caution coffee lovers – you may fall in love with the coffee hutch! It’s a large, statement piece that is sure to house all of your coffee accessories.

Any old hutch with do, because you can give it a face lift. Remove doors to create open shelves. Paint it and update the hardware. Then have fun stocking it with your coffee essentials!
