Oh, get your mind out of the gutter! :) I am talking about our home office that we recently made over, a/k/a the mom cave, and now where the blogging magic happens.
I sure don’t miss our old dining room!
This room is special to me because it’s calming, quiet, and everything is organized and clutter free. I function well under those circumstances. :) It’s where I sit and write my blog posts now and connect with all of you. It’s nice sitting in a real chair blogging, rather than having a sore neck and back from slouching on the couch! Although, I still do that too sometimes. I also pay our now organized bills, and just daydream in this room. :)
Here is me trying to work in my new space knowing that my husband is taking pictures. That was strange…
And of course it wouldn’t be a mom cave without this little goober.
Even though it would be cool to have a real “cave” I could escape to, to where no interruptions exist, I enjoy her “interruptions” and am inspired by her daily. If I find a few stray dolls, balls, cookie crumbs, or even banana remnants rubbed on the curtains in here, it’s ok…it’s our cave.
I’m linking this post up with Kate’s Mom Cave party and Susan at Between Naps on The Porch Mom Cave Party which are sponsored by Homegoods. :)

Oooh, so pretty! You did an amazing job and you look adorable in all your pics! Cute kid too. I can’t wait to be a mom so I can have one of these too! :)
Ah thank you so much! Being a mom is the best. :)
Very nice ;) I just love your room and I so hear you on giving up the dinning room…we have down-sized and have a combo dining/living room and we never used the table…so I coverted it to my studio. Best thing I ever did. Good luck in the giveaway, fondly, Roberta
Thank you Roberta! That’s great you converted yours into a studio. It’s great to actually use the rooms in our homes yes? :)
Wow, I really love what you have created! Light and bright yet the warmth of your gorgeous desk!
I have a new giveaway you will love from Metis Linens!!

You’ve created a lovely space! And your little visitor just adds to the ambience of the room. :)
Thank you Richella! Yes, she completes the space! :)
I have just recently found your blog and was inspired by the dining room re-do. I had your page open this weekend showing my husband and this morning decided to refresh it to see what was new. And there it is again…the mom cave…I LOVE it. We have a man cave of sorts right across the hall, so I know mine will be coming soon.
Haha awesome, thank you! Go get your mom cave now! :)
Mom Cave, I need to get me one of those : ) My office is in a loft above our family room and it can get loud and HOT up there, haha. Heat rises! This is simply gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
haha, thank you Paula!!
It looks fabulous!! All the colors really came together. Love the NY wall!!
Thanks so much Lauren!
What a beautiful space! Much better than a dining room. You’re inspiring me to create a space for myself in my house :)
Aw thank you Megan!!
I really love what you’ve done with this room. It’s so warm and cozy there! You really did a great job transforming your dining room into something that will bring you a lot of joy. Good job!

Thanks so much Nancy!!
I love this space! The contrast of the light walls and white hutch behind the rich wood desk is awesome! It’s beautiful and totally my style (:
Thank you so much Michaela!
Aww, it looks perfect already.
You’re so sweet. Thanks Kim!
Love seeing that pic of your little yummy in your lap!!! Great space — I’m so jealous of your cave!
Yep, she’s yummy all right! :)
Gorgeous!
Thanks Michelle!
What a fabulous space! I absolutely LOVE what you have done to create this beautiful place where “the magic happens” Ha! Its so nice and bright yet calming – and the blue-ish /gray color of the walls compliment all the elements in the room…Awesome job :-)
Well thank you so much Kenia!! I’m glad it all came together finally. :)
I think your cave is so calming. The grey painted worked out so well! Great job!

Beautiful! I especially like the colors on your wall. What colors are they? And your cabinet behind your desk is such a gorgeous focal piece.
Thanks for sharing

Thanks Brittany! The office is SW Mindful Gray. :)
Beautiful room! One day I dream of having my own room for a desk, craft stuff, and shoes :O)
I love your blog, I just added you to my list of favorites :)
Kelly
Aww thank you Kelly!!
What an amazing room. Love the colors and your desk chair is fab!
Thanks so much Emily!!
You are so right, without the little precious one it would be a lonely cave! Love your new organized space and the fact that you didn’t feel you had to have a dining room, but used it instead in a way right for your family. Lezlee
Aw thank you so much Lezlee! She completes the space. :)
What a beautiful mom cave to do all your blogging…love that desk!
Blessings,
Linda
Thank you so much Linda!!
Love your makeshift ‘cave’…what a calming atmosphere and elegant all at the same time. Love the color on the walls!
Nancy
Oh yes, that’s what I call an awesome home office!
:)

Beautiful room and beautiful little “goober”!
You’ve done a great job with your mom cave.
I loved your office. I love that the room is open in the front so it doesn’t feel secluded. Love it! Love It! I got so inspired looking through everyones spaces. I’m adding more treasures to my own.
This looks beautiful. I want an office that looks this professional and gorgeous.
