Not sure if you remember our empty corner of our kitchen but we've been staring at it for a couple months and hate it. So...naturally being the busy beavers we are... we're sprucing it up a bit! We have some guests staying with us in the next couple weeks so we thought... "what to we need right now," and it was a unanimous COFFEE NOOK response. Ok, we weren't calling a coffee nook until right now, but now that it's done we've decided that is exactly what it is.
Always on a budget. Our first stop was home depot to buy some wood. We opted for the $3 pine with no pre-finishing. We also bought some nickel brackets for about $1 each. Throw in a free cut by a Home Depot Profesh and our shelves were basically 90% finished.
Notice the empty corner... we forgot to take a before picture so this is all we have. Corey made that butcher block table for our NYC apartment and it's pretty much the only piece of furniture we brought with us to LA.
