Since this is where I find myself 4 days before my vacation and not sure how I'll cover myself before my September 1st bills come, I am all for trying to cut costs wherever is possible.
On Saturday, I received a text from an angel in the form of my client who was getting rid of a like-new Cuisinart coffeemaker since they had purchased a Nespresso. Would I like it? Is that even a question? I would do anything to give up the $3/day or $90 a month I spend at Starbucks. Peace out baristas with nooo hustle!
I have approximately 17" of counter space in my kitchen and couldn't fathom sacrificing the valuable real estate for the coffee maker. I called CB2 and had them hold a their Formosa Tray Table for me. It would ideally end up being a nightstand, but until I get a cart or sideboard, for $50 after my trade discount and taxes it makes a cute little coffee bar. Adding my mugs onto the cart gave me considerably more room in my cabinets as well!
This morning it made me beyond happy to not have to get dressed to go out and grab my coffee just to strip back into my PJ's and lounge in bed. It is the little things!
I would love to add a little floral or decorative object to be a fun little accent on this table, but these things take time and money.
Hope you all had a fabulous weekend and I will not be seeing you in line at Starbucks any longer!
Take Care,
T
