WINTER COFFEE STATION AND KITCHEN WORKSTATION

I so love decorating this little workspace for the seasons.

This is the last of winter vignettes that I will put together

which will last until Spring.....

It's rather fun to look around your house and snoop

in the cupboards to see what you have on hand

that you have not seen for a while....everything old

becomes new again.

In every vignette I pull together there will always,

always be a family heirloom mixed in with newer decor items.

In this case, the vinaigrette set belonged to my mother-in-law.

I adore this little glass milk pitcher which

is from the Magnolia Hearth and Hand collection.

I incorporated a neutral color scheme

of black, white and taupe.

I loved the french country print which

pairs beautifully with the toile mugs.

I found these mugs at Home Goods some years ago.

Now, let's take a look at the coffee station.....

I love, love, love pulling together a coffee station....

pull together anything that you love for the season....

and choose a color scheme....it's so enjoyable to pour 

that first cup of morning coffee when you feel as if you were 

in a cafe......

The heirloom?

My grandmother Grace's glass candle holder.......

How adorable is the winter mug?

I cannot wait to use this for hot cocoa topped

with real whipped cream and a peppermint chocolate......

Mmmmm.....decadent....
a hot peppermint cocoa......

topped with a Ghiradelli Snowman
melting into a puddle of whipped cream.....

While you enjoy your coffee, be sure to grab

 a warm triple berry muffin.....

better than Starbucks I promise you!

I also love sending a message for the day......

Pretty napkins, a rustic pinecone, homemade muffins,

real silver and a touch of greenery....it's delightful I think!

What comfort spaces have you designed in your home for Winter?
