The coffee bar is the place I’ve chosen to start my fall decorating this year. While I love the summer version, it is time for a change. Nothing drastic… just a little 10 minute autumn coffee bar refresh!
The kitchen has always reflected my love for black and white buffalo checked decor. I want to bring a few matching accents to the bar to mix in with the orange, gold, and shades of burgundy so representative of the new season. But first things first!
Seasonal Sign
Adding a seasonal sign is a great way to give your bar a quick refresh! Although the Farmers Market sign I used for the summer months could work, I needed a change. I think I’ve found a worthy replacement!
I used a cute coffee tin on the Fourth of July bar and I was thrilled to find a similar one for fall. Adding several fall flowers and a few buffalo checked pumpkins and it will be the centerpiece for the shelf below the sign.
Fall Flowers
Buffalo Checked Accents
Next I replaced the Farmers market mugs with some plain orange cups from my fall collection. . A buffalo checked pumpkin added to each cup ties in to the black and white overall theme of the kitchen. My autumn coffee bar is taking shape!
Deciding that the metal coffee cup could stay for the season, I simply added a bright orange leaf with double-sided tape. I removed the hanging sign from the opposite side and replaced it with a printable I made last week.
A Little Bit of Light
I also wanted to keep the small lamp on the bar. Filled with faux lemons for the summer months, a quick change to candy corn and an added bow bring it up to date for the new season.
Tiered Tray Transition
Everyone knows how much I love my tiered trays so putting it away for fall was out of the question! Of course all things lemon must go but it is an easy transition to fall. I’ve switched out the sugar and creamer with my fall set. Mini pumpkins replace the lemons in the buffalo checked bag. The little houses reminding me to embrace the meaning of the season also fit perfectly here. As the weather cools, the autumn coffee bar becomes a hot chocolate station on colder evenings. Fall sprinkles in a cute little jar are a must.
Just a Few More Accents and Signs
You can never have too many signs in my opinion! Of course my opinion differs greatly from that of my husband. He and I have never seen eye to eye on the signs I use in my decor. You can read about that in last years post, Signs of the Season. He has not noticed the new ones I’ve brought in so far but I’m sure he will have quite a lot to say once he does. I’ll keep you posted on that!
As a final addition to the bar, I added a black crow under the coffee company sign. He is the mascot after all!
The transition from summer to fall at the coffee bar took less than 10 minutes but adds so much to creating an autumn country kitchen look. It’s the cozy first stop before starting our day and very representative of the season ahead. The Create the Look section of the blog has several other ideas, links, and products to help you with your own Autumn Coffee Bar refresh!

What a super idea to add a seasonal touch to the coffee station. I have a coffee section of the kitchen and never thought to add décor to it but as Autumn is my favourite season I’m going to do this too – thanks for the inspiration #SundaysonSilverado
Thank you Rebecca! Autumn is my favorite too and this was so much fun to put together. It changes with the seasons like everything else at my house. Switching it over to a hot chocolate bar during the winter months is always fun too but more time consuming. Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great week.
I love your fall coffee bar decor. I’d love to recreate this someday in my own house. 😊
Thanks so much Kelly! Glad you stopped by. I am sending a link to your blog to my daughter out in San Diego. I read several of your posts and you have a lot in common. I think she will love it!

What a warm, cozy, and inviting fall coffee bar, Denise. I’m swooning over your candy corn lamp – so stink’n cute! I also love your collection of buffalo check pumpkins too. I have that same metal coffee mug that is hanging on your wall and I love it so much better painted white. Pumpkin spice cheers sent your way!
Thanks so much Marie! That little lamp is so much fun to change each season. Next up will be red and green gumdrops! Oh my gosh… I vowed I would never be one of those people that tells you how many days until Christmas in August! I came close just now! Have a great weekend and happy almost fall to you!
