It all starts with a plan!

After catching the news of the "Mom Cave" Link Party earlier today at Centsational Girl, I decided to give it a chance.  This Contest is being sponsored by Home Goods and luckily one just opened up about an hour and a half away from me. Woot! Woot!

For this amazing contest I am to answer this here question.....

How would a $250 gift card help you create your own ‘Mom Cave’?

Here's my answer in just under 200 words:
"As a young mother of 4, wife of a military soldier and the wearer of so many different hats in life, RELAX isn't a word that I hear very often.  Between cheering my kids on during sporting events, waiting for my soldier to come home from a deployment, moving, scrapbooking and living solely for my family, I rarely ever get to take a break.  A few months ago my family and I decided to build a home.  It was my dream come true to design our new homes floor plan.  I drew out the Master Bath knowing that it would be my 'Mom Cave' when the going gets tough and the tough get going.  Although it's not finished being built yet I already know how I want it to look and feel.  I'd like big gold ornate picture frame mirrors, a nice set of towels, a zebra print runner, some awkward but fitting wall decor, apothecary jars, smell good candles, a makeup organizer, a long door mirror to hang on the wall and a beautiful set of draperies. This is an awesome chance to make my visions in my head an instant reality.  PICK ME! PICK ME! PICK ME!"

Here are a few goods I have for the space so far....
And here is the sort of look I'm trying to achieve....




I'm crossing my fingers, toes, arms and legs hoping to win this!

Very Cool... I would love some of that stuff too but my "mom cave" is too small for me to add anything else! And oh Lynette... I have been trying to get a hold of you... emailed you a bunch of times at the desperate housewife address and the NVS address.... are you getting them?
