Woman's Coffee Corner Makeover Is the Stuff Dreams Are Made Of
By Kourtney Borman,

Love coffee but not sure where to put your collection of mugs, grounds, and, of course, all that fancy equipment? How about making yourself a cozy coffee bar? And, no, we aren't talking about taking over an entire building (though, wouldn't that be nice?).
Instead, let's repurpose a vintage dresser and use that random corner of your kitchen that's currently serving as a home for dust bunnies. TikTok creator Mailey Elaine recently did exactly this, and the result is nothing short of spectacular.
First things first, you need to pick out a space in your kitchen or wherever you want your coffee bar to be. This is the perfect opportunity to use that wasted space that doesn't seem all that useful (we've all got that one nook!).
Mailey chose an old dresser that needed a bit of a facelift. With some black paint and a bit of polish, she got the wood looking its best again. This step is where you can have some fun. Whether it's an IKEA Kallax or your grandma's thrifted dresser, pick whatever furniture fits the space and looks nice.
Once you've got your base piece, it's time to arrange your coffee equipment. Mailey is a pro at this; she arranges all her gear on and inside the dresser. From extra mugs and brewing tools to her favorite coffee grounds in gorgeous glass jars, everything has a place. This is where you can add your personal touch. Have fun with it and put your own spin on it!
The final step, and one that really ties in the space, is how Mailey added a brass bar and floating shelf above the dresser. She uses hangers on the brass bar to show off her favorite mugs and a hand towel (gotta stay clean, after all), and the floating shelf for some plants and decor. This gives the space a cohesive look and adds a touch of personality.
And there you have it—a stunning coffee corner made from an old dresser and a bit of creativity. Not only does this makeover give you a dedicated spot for your coffee addiction, but it also takes that wasted kitchen space and turns it into something beautiful AND functional - a total win-win if I've ever seen one.
