    Coffee lovers are about to have something totally new to drool over after they get a look at this woman's DIY espresso bar. Not only does this cool IKEA hack turn a few bookcases into the perfect place to make your morning brew, but it also makes it easier to cut back on visual clutter by ensuring that everything you need to make your favorite espresso can be tucked away when it's not in use.

    This is actually a super clever idea, and thanks to the fact that it has wheels, it's also really easy to move around your home, making it easier to access all sides.

    We're sure that @interiorxlifestyle got her inspiration from somewhere fancy, when she came up with this idea, which involves combining two Billy Bookcases that have been turned on their sides.

    Not only does this scream "form and function," but this idea seems to mainly involve using IKEA products, which are notoriously affordable and customizable. Basically, if the OP's exact design doesn't work for you, you should have an easy enough time converting it into something that does!

    There are actually a few different things coffee lovers can do with IKEA products.

    Woman Makes Coffee Nook Out of IVAR Cabinets

    Exhibit A comes to us from this woman , who used IKEA's beloved IVAR cabinet to create a nice and organized spot to show off all of her coffee supplies.

    The nook has room for all her mugs, as well as a hidden spot where she can stash those non-aesthetic things away when she's not using them... brilliant!

    Create a Coffee Bar Out of IKEA Products

    This woman went totally bespoke with her coffee bar design, which involved sourcing a bunch of different pieces from IKEA's catalogue. From there she customized her build top-to-bottom, making sure that there was enough room for her to add a mini-fridge so that she could store both hot and cold items.

    Then, she created enclosed shelving that could be covered when not in use, giving her a chance to decant all the things she uses most into nice jars, which she then labeled and set up on her shelves for easy access.

    This may actually be our favorite design yet because of the inclusion of the fridge, because it eliminates the need to walk back and forth from the coffee bar to your main refrigerator when you need to get some milk or creamer!

    IKEA Espresso Bar Is What Dreams Are Made Of

    We might have an easier time getting up in the morning if we knew this was waiting for us. In fact, this could be the exact thing we need to put a little extra pep in our step. Maybe we need an espresso bar!
