Serve Your Favorite Treats
Stock up on coffee treats whether they're homemade or store-bought, and display them on a cake stand so guests feel like they're at their favorite cafe.
Create a Cozy Nook
Cozy Breakfast Nook
In addition to a coffee center and wine storage unit, the new breakfast room also features open shelves for cookbooks and an upholstered bench that makes the space feel cozy and inviting.
Set yourself up for a relaxing weekend by placing your coffee bar in the coziest spot in your kitchen. Add plush pillows, fresh flowers and your favorite books right next to the coffee machine.

Coffee Syrups
For that friend who prefers a more flavorful coffee experience, gift them with coffee syrups from your grocery store's coffee aisle. Pour the syrups into oil pourers from a craft store and label the bottles for a more personal touch.
