Monica Hart * Master Bedroom Beverage Bar 

            It all started with this little Nespresso  espresso maker and thoughts of enjoying

a first morning cup of coffee without  ever leaving the bedroom. Kinda like the

amenities you might find in a nice hotel room….only AT HOME!

I kept thinking…

          master retreat!   Well, one thing led to another and I started dreaming up a design for a master

bedroom beverage bar. A small niche, in the master entry was the perfect spot! 

 

 The beverage bar would need refrigeration, for bottled  water, sparkling  water,

‘BUBBLES’ and cream for our coffee.

It would need shelves for pretty glassware and spirits.

I had my mind set on a gorgeous shade of gray and a few lovely design details.

 

 FINALLY, install day came! The craftsmen from Contemporary Woodesign Inc. got to work. (Thank you!)

And here is our master bedroom beverage bar reveal!

I kept the design simple and classic  with a few pretty extras: corbels and fluting  ~  check. 

I wanted this piece to look more  like fine furniture and less  like a kitchen cabinet.

To break things up, I added glass shelves for pretty glassware...

collecting the fluted blue, vintage  champagne glasses and

and gold  trimmed monastery glasses on my antiquing  adventures.

I gathered up some fun coffee & espresso cups just for the bedroom beverage bar.

And for now, pretty bottles of spirits occupy the upper glass shelf along with a

vintage  ice bucket and vintage  martini pitcher. I’m taking my  sweet time

 adding accessories & art but overall,

I want this space to feel classic, clean, uncluttered.

The wood fronted cabinet hides an amazing Fisher & Paykel cool drawer that can

go from refrigeration to freezer at the push of a button! Fab! I

stocked the drawer with beverage  bar essentials.

Another drawer holds coffee capsules, linens, sugar and utensils.

I chose not  to put a sink in this piece…for clean up because the space is tight

and there is a wet bar in the guest suite just down the hall.

Besides the coffee capsules make clean up a breeze!

Love  the simple pulls and the cabinet’s soft gray color.

It’s a custom color, patterned after Farrow & Ball’s Pavilion Gray.

I like how it looks, playing off of our French blue bedroom accent wall, though it is not

  easy to photograph with the lighting situation!

Next, I want to change out the carpet in the master and slip cover the sleigh bed…all in an effort to make

our master a cozy  retreat with all the amenities!

Not gonna to lie, that first cup  from our master bedroom beverage bar…
