How to Make a Modern Coffee Bar in a Small Space!

You know I love making the everyday moments feel a little more special, and I thought, why not romanticize the day at the office with coffee! I decided to create a little corner of modern coziness to brighten the day up, and keep me from spending the extra $5 on a latte everyday haha. Today I’m showing you how to create the perfect modern coffee bar for a small space ….OR in this case..your office 🙂

Coffee Bar for Cozy, Small Spaces

Can we first talk about how GORGEOUS this espresso machine is?! For a while now, I’ve been wanting a dedicated little spot to make my afternoon coffee without having to head to the kitchen or a coffee shop. Sometimes, regular coffee doesn’t cut- I need espresso for the extra caffeine. The 3pm crash hits hard at the office!

I picked up the small Drew Barrymore one from Walmart, and it’s honestly so pretty, aesthetic, yet functional! What I especially love about it is how perfectly sized it is for a smaller workspace – like a cubicle! It doesn’t take up a ton of room at all. Plus, the setup is so simple. You literally just need a little bit of counter or shelf space and an outlet, and there you have it! I look forward to this part of my day at the office!

When your workspace is mindfully created to be both enjoyable and functional, you will be more productive.- Theeverygirl

When your office becomes your favorite coffee shop!

Why I love the Drew Barrymore Espresso Machine

This part of my office space has truly transformed into my own little coffee shop at work! All thanks to the black Drew Barrymore espresso machine. It would make a perfect fit for any cubicle , offering a sleek, aesthetic design that actually enhances the look of your desk and allowing you to romanticize your work day. What I really appreciate is how incredibly quiet it operates, letting me brew my favorite espresso drinks or lattes without disturbing anyone. It’s truly the ideal compact coffee machine for any small office kitchen or shared workspace, making every morning feel like a personalized cafe experience right at my desk! Ya’ll will love it!

5 Ways to Romanticize Your 9-5

  1. Elevate Your Desk Space: Just like my little coffee bar, bringing in a few aesthetically pleasing items can make a big difference. Think a cute desk lamp, a small plant, some inspiring artwork, or even just organizing your supplies in pretty containers. Make your workspace a place you want to be.
  2. Curate Your Workday Soundtrack: Instead of just the general office noise, pop in some headphones and listen to music that boosts your mood and focus. Having your own personal soundtrack can make even mundane tasks feel a little more enjoyable!
  3. Take Intentional Breaks: Don’t just scroll mindlessly on your phone during your breaks. Step away from your screen, stretch, read a few pages of a book, or even just sit quietly and enjoy your cute office coffee! These little moments of intentional rest can help you feel more refreshed and present. Intentional breaks also allow for more productive days- you can read more about how to be more productive at work here!
  4. Dress the Part (For Yourself!): You don’t need to wear a ballgown to the office, but choosing outfits that make you feel good can definitely boost your mood. Even if you’re working from home, putting on something that makes you feel put-together can help you feel more professional and confident.
  5. Find the Small Joys: Actively look for the little things to appreciate throughout your day. It could be a kind email from a colleague, the satisfaction of finishing a task, a beautiful view from your window, or even just that first sip of your perfectly brewed coffee. Acknowledging these small joys can shift your perspective and make your day feel more positive.

It’s all about finding those little ways to infuse your personality and a bit of joy into your workday. It’s the little things in life.

I love to hear people’s stories….. what I love most is how someone’s story can be such a guide for someone else. That’s what I want this little space to be. Where we connect, inspire, tell our stories. Talk about all things from fashion to travel to health or to what gets us up in the morning.

Work life balance that actually feels balanced 😌

It’s not about doing everything, but about doing what matters most to you! 
For me, that looks like: 
- Time blocking my day (work and play!) 
- being selective with commitments 
- Scheduling in true downtime to recharge. This for me is my slow morning routines and going to the gym in the evening!

What does work-life balance look like for you?
