Now that my coffee station is turning into our coffee station, I want it to continue looking clean and pretty. Creating a pretty coffee station is one thing, but the need for better organization is becoming more important.

After cleaning out shelves over the coffee maker, I now have extra storage space. I mean, do we really need 30 mugs? Not really.

The coffee pod storage is in stackable trays. Pods are a lot easier to get to than reaching into the large jar I had before.

For tea bag storage I’m using plastic boxes with dividers and lids. These are great for organizing teas, and save room because they are stackable.

With all the extra space, I can store Tervis tumblers here to use this summer for iced coffee lattes. Oh and by the way, I’m still in love with my coffee machine, and not just because it is so reasonably priced. It really makes great coffee.

Styling the Coffee Station

As far as decorating the coffee station, I’m still displaying my mini collection of creamers in a jar on top of a cake stand. Spoons go into a bigger creamer and I added a shaker for cinnamon. In the fall I’ll be filling it with my pumpkin pie spice mix. For details, click on Pumpkin Pie Spice Recipe, you might want to pin this for later.

I’m keeping everything corralled on the porcelain tray for easy clean up, including jars of sugar and sugar substitute.

After months of trying to decide on what kind of artwork to make for the counter area, the inspiration finally hit me. I got the idea to paint a watercolor of a café au lait bowl from a book series I’m rereading for the third time. Every time a character orders a bowl of café au lait in their little village bistro, my mouth starts watering.

The café au lait bowl watercolor has soft feminine colors, tiny flowers and an overall faded vintage chippy look. You can bet if I’m offered a bowl of café au lait, my response of course will be “oui”.

  1. You are SO talented! LOVE your printable! And your coffee station ideas are great, too! Putting the pods upside down is a great way to save space, and arrange your pods nicely! Never thought of it! Pinned!

  2. Michelle, I love what you’ve done here and I love that printable!! It’s darling.

    Now…is there a secret to downloading it? When I click on the words it just opens another view of the picture. 🙂

    1. Hi Stacey, I’m sorry to hear you are having trouble downloading the image. I refreshed the link to the printable and it should open in a new tap. You can either right click on the image to save to your computer or control P to print. I tested it a few minutes ago and it should work for you now.
