Move Over Man Cave: Introducing the Mom Cave

New York designer Elaine Griffin embraces the Mom Cave concept and recently partnered with Homegoods in Manhattan to show some decor and space suggestions. She says, "A Mom Cave is where the woman who nurtures everyone goes to nurture herself." It's different from the quintessential "man cave," where men do manly, messy and sporty things, often involving a recliner. Griffin notes, "Mom Caves are fun, frankly feminine spaces and they're personalized." Here's what you need for your Mom Cave: a place to sit, storage space, an area to do what you want to do and room for occasional visitors. "Organizing your stuff makes your space feel bigger. I love bookcases - you can hide in plain sight," says Griffin. Colorful boxes and file folders work well; group an array of favorite photos in fun frames on the shelves.

Hope this inspires any woman needing her own space to create her very own Mom Cave.
