POV: being on surgery recovery leave for a month t POV: being on surgery recovery leave for a month turned me into a full-time homebody 🤣

Honestly, staying home healing after surgery has taught me one thing… I never want to leave my house again 😂 Being cozy at home with my cats, resting, binge watching shows, and avoiding the outside world has been absolutely glorious. I truly understand the “stay at home cat mom” lifestyle now lol.

At this point, I have everything I need right here at home. Peace, comfy clothes, snacks, my pets, and zero social obligations 🤣 Meanwhile, every time I actually leave the house, I come back completely exhausted.

So the fact that I have to go back to work today after a month of recovery is honestly going to be SUCH a rough adjustment 😅 I’m not mentally prepared to rejoin society yet lol. Anyone else secretly love being home way too much?!

Honestly, I’ve been struggling with the thought of Honestly, I’ve been struggling with the thought of going back to work while still recovering from surgery. Between the physical healing and the emotional side of post-surgery recovery, I’ve been feeling pretty down lately. So this comedy date night ended up being exactly what I needed.

We bought tickets to see @johnbcrist months ago, long before I had any idea I’d be spending a month on surgery leave. Turns out the timing couldn’t have been more perfect. This was our third time seeing him live, and he absolutely delivered. I laughed so hard that for a couple of hours, I completely forgot about returning to work, ongoing recovery, and all the stress waiting for me next week. 🤣

Before the show, we had dinner at @redgingerasianbistro and finished the night with dessert at @timesbarandcoffee which made the whole evening even better. Good food, lots of laughs, and quality time with my husband was exactly the distraction I needed.

Sometimes healing isn’t just about physical recovery. Sometimes it’s about finding little moments that remind you how good it feels to laugh again. ❤️ 

Have you ever had a random night out come at exactly the right time? #johncrist #johncristcomedy #comedyshow #datenightideas #asheville
Not me having to put on my sunglasses every time I Not me having to put on my sunglasses every time I have to chop onions because my eyes tear up so bad… 🤣

Ever since I had LASIK surgery a few years ago, chopping onions has been brutal on my eyes. I’m talking instant tears the second I start cutting them 😂 Apparently my eyes became extra sensitive afterward, and honestly it’s been a struggle ever since.

But then I heard about the “wear sunglasses while chopping onions” hack and y’all… why does it actually work?! 😅 So now anytime my hubby isn’t home to take over onion duty, you can catch me in the kitchen wearing sunglasses indoors looking ridiculous but tear-free 😎 

If you’ve ever wondered how to stop crying while cutting onions, consider this your sign to try the sunglasses trick! It may look silly, but it seriously helps block those onion fumes from hitting your eyes 👏

Now I need to know… does anyone else have weird kitchen hacks like this? 😂 #kitchenhacks #cookinghacks #onionhack #cookinghack #onions
Y’all already know I’ve been on a serious freezer Y’all already know I’ve been on a serious freezer meal kick lately since I unfortunately have to go back to work next week 😭 And let me tell you… having a freezer stocked full of easy homemade dinners is about to save me on those busy weeknights!

One of my all-time favorite freezer meals is this homemade chicken pot pie recipe 🥧✨ It definitely takes a little extra work, especially if you make the homemade pie crust from scratch; but trust me, it is SO worth it. The creamy chicken filling, flaky buttery crust, and cozy comfort food vibes make it one of the best dinners ever.

Anytime I make homemade chicken pot pie, I always make two: one for dinner now and one freezer meal for later. And this time, I took my extra frozen chicken pot pie to my sweet mama after her surgery yesterday 💛 It’s honestly the perfect meal to bring someone recovering from surgery, welcoming a new baby, or just going through a hard season because all they have to do is pop it in the oven for an easy homemade comfort meal.

If you love easy freezer meals, homemade comfort food recipes, or make-ahead dinners for busy families, you definitely need to try this one!

I can’t believe it’s officially been one month sin I can’t believe it’s officially been one month since my endometriosis excision surgery. Honestly, I really thought by now I’d be coming on here saying I finally felt like myself again. I wanted this surgery to be the answer so badly. But the truth is… I’m still struggling every single day.

The lower back pain, hip pain, chronic fatigue, GI issues, insomnia, dizziness, and POTS-like symptoms are all still here. And while my surgeon was absolutely wonderful and removed the endometriosis she found, we’re now starting to realize there may be something more going on underneath it all.

Right now we’re exploring possibilities like EDS, MCAS, and POTS, which honestly feels overwhelming because getting doctors to truly listen and take women seriously can feel like a full time job in itself. I know so many women with chronic illness, endometriosis, and invisible illnesses understand exactly what I mean.

But even though I’m discouraged, I’m not giving up. I know my body, I know something still isn’t right, and I’ll continue advocating for myself until I get answers. And if sharing my story helps even one woman feel less alone in her own health journey, then it’s worth it 🤍 #chronicillnessawareness #chronicillnesswarrior #endometriosis #endometriosisexcision #chronicallyill
Since I’ve been home recovering from surgery and g Since I’ve been home recovering from surgery and getting ready to head back to work next week, I’ve been stocking my freezer with all my favorite freezer-friendly meals, and this crockpot spaghetti sauce is always at the top of the list 🍝❤️

This easy slow cooker spaghetti sauce recipe is seriously my all-time favorite comfort food. There’s nothing better than a big plate of spaghetti with homemade meat sauce, especially when the crockpot does all the work for you! Just toss everything in, let it simmer low and slow all day, and your house smells AMAZING 🤤

One of the best parts? This recipe makes a huge batch, so I always freeze extra for easy weeknight dinners later on. Just thaw, heat, and dinner is basically done 🙌 Perfect for busy work weeks, meal prep, freezer cooking, and easy family dinners!

This holiday is about honoring and remembering the brave men and women of our military who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom and for this country we love so much. Because freedom is never free.

So while you enjoy the long weekend, fly your American flags proudly, hug your family a little tighter, and take a moment to remember the heroes who gave everything for the United States of America. Land of the free because of the brave. 🇺🇸 #america #memorialday #freedomisntfree #rememberthefallen #memorialdayweekend🇺🇸

And my little garden is definitely thankful too 🌱 Nothing makes me happier lately than sitting in the rocking chairs on the porch, listening to the rain come down, and pretending I’m a little old lady already 😂

Slow mornings, fresh rain, growing gardens, and hot coffee… that’s basically my ideal summer morning at this point 🤍

Anyone else turn into a porch-sitting grandma the second it rains? 🤣🌧️ #porchsitting #porchsittin #rainymorning #cozymorning #rainymood

Farmhouse Coffee Bar Ideas Through The Seasons

If you’ve been around here long enough, then you know how I love my coffee bar area. And I love to style it for every season and holiday. So I thought it would be fun to share all my Farmhouse Coffee Bar Ideas Through The Seasons today. 

That way you can always come back to this post for each holiday to get a little inspiration on how to style your own coffee bar too. This is a great way to add in some seasonal decor to your home without going overboard. And who doesn’t love a cute space dedicated to all the coffee essentials you need to enjoy a perfect cup of coffee!

Coffee lovers, this post is for you! I hope you enjoy how I style my own coffee station and I hope it gives you some ideas and inspiration as well. Now, grab you a cup of coffee and enjoy all these home coffee bar ideas!

Vintage Patriotic Coffee Bar

Coffee Bar Necessities 

Before I go through and show you examples of how to style your coffee bar for every season, let’s get into the coffee necessities you need in order to create your own bar.

And even if you don’t have a dedicated space to create a coffee bar like I do, you could always just use part of your kitchen counter too. You don’t have to create a huge coffee bar space. Just do what works for you! There are plenty of ways to create a coffee station!

When we built our new home, I knew I wanted a coffee bar so we specifically set aside some room for it in our dining room space. Our dining room and kitchen is all open and connected so it flows together nicely and fills the void perfectly!

It’s a great addition to the space and it’s something I use and enjoy every single day! And the best way to show you all my farmhouse coffee bar ideas for each and every season!

Winter Coffee Bar

Coffee Bar Cabinet 

To create mine, I used a coffee bar cabinet as the base. This cabinet has a beautiful farmhouse feel to it and has glass doors so you can see inside.

This ultimately makes for the perfect piece because I can store things inside of it, but also display them and make them pretty. I typically keep all my extra Rae Dunn pottery pieces here.

If you wanted to hide something inside, you could easily do so by adding some wicker baskets instead. That way, it still looks pretty, but you can store whatever you need to inside without showing it. And it has plenty of storage space inside which is always a plus!

On top of the cabinet is where I place the coffee maker. I have a classic Keurig machine and I just added a Nespresso machine last year to it as well. I also keep my coffee canister on top of the cabinet too. This is a perfect place to store my coffee pods as well. You could also store coffee beans or coffee grounds inside a canister too.

Tiered Tray

Does it come as any surprise to anyone that I have a tiered tray on my coffee bar too?! I always talk about tiered trays, and how to style them, so of course I added one on the bar too. This is an easy way to display seasonal items, or store more coffee supplies on.

It can make for a beautiful focal point for your coffee bar as well. It’s also great to have if you have a small coffee station as well. A tiered tray doesn’t take up too much room and you can place it directly beside your coffee machine. If you’re looking for more DIY coffee bar ideas for small spaces, be sure to check out how I made our coffee bar back when we had our camper too!

Coffee Bar Sign

Mug Rack 

This simple idea I had for a mug rack came true thanks to my sweet hubby. I wanted an open shelf that had hooks on the bottom of it so I could display my coffee mugs and then also style the top of the shelf too.

But, I could never find one I liked in the store so my husband ended up taking matters into his own hands for this. We just got a simple floating shelf and then some eye hooks. Then, we measured out the shelf and figured out how far the hooks should be placed apart. 

I wanted a total of six hooks, that way I could easily display my mugs and have it look nice and even. And that was it! We also hung a big coffee sign on top of the mug rack as well. The final part to creating this DIY farmhouse coffee bar! And now check out my farmhouse coffee bar ideas for every season below!

Winter Coffee Bar

Let’s just go ahead and start at the very beginning of the year. This is usually what I do for the whole month of January. Right after all the Christmas decorations come down, it can be hard to style and decorate your home.

Winter Hot Cocoa Bar

I feel like my house always feels empty after all the decor comes down. So I love to leave in some winter greenery to give it a cozy feel still. I share more in detail on how to keep your home cozy after Christmas in another one of my blog posts, so be sure to check that out if you missed that in the past. 

Winter Tiered Tray

But between the greenery and hot cocoa theme, it works! It’s not too Christmasy, but it is perfect for winter. Just because Christmas is over, doesn’t mean you don’t want a great cup of joe to warm you up!

Valentine’s Day Coffee Bar

I always love adding in soft touches of pink, even in home decor. And Valentine’s Day gives me just the excuse to do that! Plus, I have themed Rae Dunn mugs for Valentine’s Day as well. 

Valentine's Day Coffee Bar

I place each Valentine’s Rae Dunn mug on the hook and alternate them to create a beautiful love themed display! Since each mug is double sided, I have two of each to showcase the saying plainly. 

Valentine's Day Coffee Bar Tiered Tray

Spring Coffee Bar

I like to keep the soft touches of pink going for my spring coffee bar as well. I just take down all the super lovey dovey Valentines and keep anything that is pink. I also add in more pastels and greenery to keep with the spring theme.

The Creative Farmhouse Sign on Coffee Bar
Here is another spring like option for a coffee bar without all the pastels!

​Easter Coffee Bar

​My Easter coffee bar is different than my spring coffee bar because I have more specifically themed coffee mugs for this holiday. And of course I add in lots of carrots, eggs, and bunny rabbits too!

Styling an Easter Coffee Bar

Summer Coffee Bar

For summer I usually split up my coffee bar decor into two different categories. I love to patriotic decor for Memorial Day and the Fourth of July. So I love to display a lot of red, white and blue pieces here for that.

Vintage Patriotic Coffee Bar

But, after those holidays are over, I usually tend to stick with a lemon theme for the rest of the summer. I use anything bright yellow or anything that has lemons or lemonade on it. This is bright and cheery for the warm summer months!

Summer Coffee Bar

Fall Coffee Bar

After I put all the lemons away, out comes the pumpkins! I absolutely love fall, it’s right next to Christmas for me! Bring on all the pumpkin spice please! Pumpkin flavored coffee is one of my favorite things about the season!

Close Up of Fall Coffee Bar

And again, I have all the pumpkin themed Rae Dunn mugs for this occasion too. They make for one of the perfect pumpkin mug displays you could have!

Coffee Bar Fall Tiered Tray

Christmas Coffee Bar

Christmas is hands down my favorite holiday to decorate for. And of course I love to intermix Christmas decor with all my coffee bar essentials. I like to create more of a vintage or rustic coffee bar for Christmas.

Vintage Christmas Coffee Bar

​Using my vintage Santa mugs and antiques, I am able to create this rustic theme! I also kind of turn it into more of a hot cocoa bar to keep with the Christmas theme too. You could easily change out the coffee sign to some wood signs that are more on season too like I did here as well.

Enjoy Your Farmhouse-Style Coffee Bar

Well, I think I gave you more than enough ideas to get started with your own home coffee station here. I hope you are able to create your own space and add your own personal touch to it as well. And I hope you enjoyed all these farmhouse coffee bar ideas. 

I absolutely love my morning coffee routine and enjoy looking at my coffee bar decor every season. If you’re a big coffee drinker too, then you definitely need to create your own coffee bar.

Whether it be a huge bar or a very small coffee bar, I am sure you will enjoy it either way! Creating a farmhouse style coffee bar has been one of my favorite things to date inside of our home. I definitely don’t regret it and look forward to switching it up every season. 

Pin for Later!

Do you have a designated coffee area or bar in your home too? If so, I would love to hear how you decorate yours too! Let me know below!
