No!! I wish. I have a 4 bedroom house with only 2 of the rooms occupied... This is giving me ideas! I would love to start sewing and designing clothes again! Rawr.

Someday I WILL have a room just for my crafts and little projects!

Right now my bedroom is in such a state of dissaray, that I certainly would call it a cave, but not a femme cave. I have carved out a corner in the living room for a femme office/writer's corner which I'll keep. Then if my room survives the planned napalming, I'll take pictures of my brand new world.

Well, I guess my whole house is my femmecave, even though it is shared with a teenage grrlchild. But caverooms have different purposes.

Most used room is my kitchen/cave. Fashioned after a 50s diner with black and white checker floor, black and chrome pub table, photos of Elvis, Lucille Ball, etc. Small tabletop juke box. All red accents of appliances and vintage cherry curtains. Stove is original 1945 Gibson to tie it all up. I spend most of my time in that room.

My library is my more quiet cave. One solid wall floor to ceiling shelving of books (mine and my daughters) and another wall with a big hutch filled with games/activities. Rolltop desk to the side.

My bedroom is the other quiet cave (The love shack) I built it into the attic. It's nice buttery cream color, hardwood floor, soft lighting. Large window/wall looking over a river. I don't keep much in there. The bed, which is wicked cozy, one dresser, a nightstand.

I love my house/cave.

My femme cave is actually my balcony. I live in a small condo but I have a huge balcony and I make the most of it.

I have wood tile covering the cement for the flooring. On one side, I have a bar type table with two high chairs so I can sit and have a coffee while looking out at the lake. On the other end, I have a two seater, with a coffee table.

I've put up star lights along the length of the sliding glass doors as well as lights on the 'trees'. There's a small side table with a collection of candles. In the warmer months, I have numerous plants, flowers, herbs and sometimes veggies growing.

I go out onto the balcony every day at some point throughout the day. Winter, summer, spring and fall. I love my view and I've made it into a lovely little piece of heaven.

Well, I'm seriously blessed and I thank my lucky stars every day!

I'm one who gets the whole house too. I'm enjoying it because I'm just taking my time getting things the way I want them.
After my international breakup, a year and a half ago, most of my few belongings are still either in Italy or in a storage container in Maryland. So, I'm kinda just taking things slowly.
I'm the only captain of this ship, bitches! wooo hoo

I live next door to my mom in a circa 1950's hand made, cinderblock house on the prairie of the Northern Chihuahua desert. It's got sandy pink concrete floors, matching sandy pink plaster walls, deep brown and aquamarine curtains, ancient plumbing, and a red fiberglass kitchen countertop. (That's getting changed this year!)

My femme cave is all about living in complete peace and quiet, that is, until I crank up the music and dance around.

I have a simple desk and chair set up in front of a large picture window where I write and play on the Planet, and eat lots of .


I help my mom out with the odd bit here and there but what's nice is I really don't have to do shit for anyone but me and the doggie.

<---- prairie dog. Mini takes up very little real estate has been the truest of friends. She completes my femme cave.

I have all the important things: lots of searing hot water and an old, but decent, ceramic-coated bathtub a cushy reclining chair, good sheets on the bed, good coffee to drink and good books and I've recently been watching a TV series out of Australia called McLeod's Daughters.

I do, from time to time, get a gob of freshfrom my neighbor about a mile from here.

It is my sanctuary and is all about relaxing, that is, until I'm on the road again in search of my next project or headed out to reunion!!!

Viva la Femme!

My next apartment will be all to myself. I guess then there's no need for a "cave" per se.

Maybe someday I will get to a place where I can share a home and life with somebody who is compatible.

I have a room that is in between the two bedrooms. It is my cave. I have all my crafts in there, some horse tack, and my desk. Also a loveseat, a bookcase and my wall has my special photos and painting on them. I can sit at my desk and look outside my window, and see my garden, and the beautiful pergola of grapes, and the fence line of trumpet vines. I have a tart warmer that is filled with my latest whim. I am about to pull up the old shag carpeting and let the old wood floor breath once again.

I also have a place to myself which I love. I have three bedrooms, and each one has its own personality and decor and depending on how I'm feeling will determine which room I might spend some time in. This varies from very 'old world', big wooden bed with a floral counterpane and lots of big pillows and gentle pictures on the walls, to another room with a bright bed cover, minnie mouse and cartoon sketches on the wall, and the thrid bedroom with a big bookcase, lots of my favourite books, and pictures of my family and dogs. And then I have the best patio in the world, that overlooks a golf course, has a myriad of different birds visit everyday, a mob of kangaroos that hang about the back fence looking for a treat, and a bar-b-q, plants and my music box to just kick back and relax after work. So I guess my whole home is my femme cave, different rooms for different moods.
