Flora's Bedroom
My daughter's always been obsessed with house-shaped beds. And I love it too because you can hang stuff along the roof, I added mini led-light strips that I use as nightlight when it's bedtime

I prefer non-branded coffee makers because they are cheaper and still work the same! This one makes one cup at a time (perfect for me, I'm single ahah) and takes K-cups. I've had it over a year and still works like day 1
Hot & Cold Coffee Maker for K Cup & Ground
