Coffee Bar

Ever since I saw the image below on Houzz, I NEEDED a coffee bar in my future house!

So cute right? I was on a mission to recreate the look. After looking for over a year for our dream house, we finally found it! I also spotted a great spot for my coffee bar idea. Now, I needed to find just the right piece to fit my style. Although I really enjoy the black coffee bar in my inspiration photo, I wanted to keep my recreation a bit more airy.

As I was fishing through a local consignment shop, I found it! The perfect piece. It has just the right amount of rustic appeal. In the pic-stitch below you will see how I saw it setup originally in the store. I switched out the knobs to bring it to life a bit more.

I gave it a good cleaning and was ready to set it up! At first I was going to buy the exact shelf used my inspiration picture, http://shop.hobbylobby.com/products/metal-and-wood-shelf-with-baskets-and-7-hooks-263558/ , but then I thought of just using plain white open shelving. We went to Lowe’s and found the perfect set of shelves to place above our coffee bar.

From there, I just bought a bunch of little decor pieces here and there from Pier 1 and Home Goods and went to town! I especially love the canisters I found from the same consignment shop I bought the coffee bar. I then went on Etsy and had label tags made up and used twill to tie the labels around the canisters.
