And the best ‘Glow Up’ award for 2020 goes to……
Coffee.
You may have heard of the viral trend that made it into our homes at the beginning of the year, which was Dalgona coffee or whipped coffee. It gave instant coffee a much needed glow up by whipping it with equal parts sugar and water, then spooning the delicious foam over milk.
Now, coffee has done it again. This time, changing the way we store it in our home. Gone are the days we hide our coffee (and tea) in our pantry. Trendsetters on the Facebook Kmart Hack pages have found a new solution to social distancing, by bringing Café vibes into our homes and displaying our coffee in these trendy new ways.
As the remaining year levels go back to school across Australia this week, grab that cuppa, put up your feet and take a moment to read how you can style your kitchen with these Top 15 Kmart Coffee Station Hacks.
Hack #1 Rectangle Wall Shelf
These rectangle wall shelves are the perfect size for kitchen bench tops. They can be used horizontal or vertical to suit the space! Ideal for displaying canisters and your favourite mugs.
Hack #2 Vinyl is your friend!
Personalise your rectangle shelf with adhesive vinyl. Kmart have a great variety of colours and patterns for $3 each. This Kmart lover used craft scrapbook paper as an alternative to the vinyl, which is perfect for when you want to easily switch up your colour scheme to suit the seasons or your mood!
Timeless mini paper stack – $4
Hack #3 Get organised with the 6 cube storage unit
This Kmart mum originally ordered the 6 cube storage unit to use in the kids’ rooms, but instead found a more perfect spot for it on her kitchen bench top!
Hack #4 Make use of every corner
This bamboo bathroom caddy has been upgraded into the kitchen. What a clever hack to make cute shelves and utilise corner spaces in the kitchen.
Bamboo 3 tier corner shelf – $25
Hack #5 Double your bench space with this serving board
I have been won over by this idea despite breakfast in bed having to be put on hold while these serving boards are being put to use. What a genius way to double your bench space!
Hack #6 Tip that shelf upside down!
Another way to double that bench space without having to sacrifice breakfast in bed is using the shelf with cage upside down!
Hack #7 Add some gold
Standard tea/coffee canisters not catching your eye? Get creative by making your own labels with scrapbook letters available in the craft section.
Rose gold alphabet stickers – $3
Hack #8 Keep it sleek & simple
These mini desk top drawers stacked vertically are matched effortlessly with the kettle and toaster to achieve a simple and sleek coffee station.
Hack #9 We see you tea lovers
These clear cube storage organisers from the bathroom section are the perfect size for tea boxes!
Hack #10 Ain’t no party like a coffee station party!
Don’t rule out the party section for kitchen supplies! Put your pods on display with this nifty clear container from the party section.
Hack #11 Colour, colour, colour!
Don’t be afraid of colour! Add these pretty pastel Espresso Cups to fill your spaces.
Espresso Cup (Pink) – $1.50 | Espresso Cup (Grey) – $1.50 | Espresso Cup (Blue) – $1.50
Hack #12 Hidden Gem
Not yet convinced to put your coffee and tea on display? This bamboo cutlery tray is perfect to tuck away your tea and coffee station yet still have handy access.
Hack #13 The Famous Five!
Two sets of 5 pack drawer sets, side by side, yet they look completely different! Remove the drawers to use elsewhere, add some vinyl on any remaining draws and use the empty spaces to display pretty patterned cups.
Hack #14 Greenery without the effort of watering
Add some fake plants to create pops of colour in those high to reach areas to get that greenery without the guilt of forgetting to water them (surely I’m not the only one).
Hack #15 Don’t stop at just coffee!
The sky is the limit! This is the ultimate station for families who not only love coffee, but hot chocolate (I spy marshmallows) and MILKSHAKES!
With all these amazing ideas, all that is left is to head to K-Mart… or grab yourself a refill, keep your feet up and order online.
