The Challenge – sitting pretty

The new round of The Challenge is rolling along, this rounds theme is stone. I was really wishing and hoping that one of the participants would make a gert big statue – and they did! 22769 have this mahoosive statue called “The Garden Dreamer” as their offering , and it’s just perfect for your spaces. I placed mine on the water, just because I could – but really it would suit any sort of area. So there I was stood admiring it and then I noticed that it had POSES built right in ! Fifteen sitting animations to be precise, a real bonus – not only beautiful but useful . Head over and grab yours before this months round ends.

Summertime

 

Oh my burgeoning inventory ! I’m afraid I just couldn’t resist buying this container styled home at the new round of Roulett3. It’s by [Since 1975], a store I have been keeping an eye on for a while. This quite simply is irresistabubble – Low Li (62) and just $374L at the event – who can resist. You get a HUD too, which you can use to alter some of the colours – such as window frames etc – nice touch. It does come as seen above, the base, the stones and of course the roof garden with vines and soil patch.

I’m in lurve with this gorgy retro patio set form %percent! Its got so many delicious colour tones in the menu – even Tiffany blue *faints*. So so so what sets it apart for me is the wonderful selection of animations and FOOD ! I’ve seen a lot of tables with food offerings in my almost ten years of SL – but this is different. Not the usual stuff by a long shot and each meal is so beautifully presented with fabbo eating animations. There are , of course, other poses – talking,reading etc for both males & females. This will be available in the upcoming Vintage fair – starts June 10th!

Meanwhile in the latest round of The Challenge bauwerk-22769 have set out these wonderful decor items. The gramaphone actually does play a oldtime record which is sweet, all verrrrry low Li and superbly detailed.

The Challenge – roaring 20’s

I couldn’t wait for this round of The Challenge – its Art Deco !22769 bauwerk have a fantastic set out for you, two easy chairs in a really spot on deco style. Also a side table, two types of rug and a floor lamp. The texturing on the chairs is to-die-for! I set it all up along with the sweet deco inspired fireplace from Enchant3D. Can you believe its just 2Li? Plain white marble surround with that lovely 20’s feel shape on the very top. Gorgeous gold fire screen before a really roaring flame effect fire (touch for on and off).

Just a little close up to show off the cushions, leather and fire. Blog listed below so you can see all the designers participating in this round, plus of course the landmarks to go grab the goodies !

The Challenge goes Scandinavian

The theme for this months round of The Challenge is “Scandinavian” and the very first thing I saw was this set by 22769 bauwerk. It did make me chuckle ! I’ve been lured by “SLikea” soooo many times in the past, with its promised flat pack ease – no way no more!! There are several poses in this with you doing various tasks – such as giving up, confused etc – brilliant!

I really loved this lounging chair from [ht home] – two versions up for grabs – one in leather and the other fabric (which I’m showing above). The pillows have texture change which is a lovely touch and the poses are really top-notch.

The Challenge – Electronics

Refreshed from my recent holiday , Im back to bring you a few of the releases for this months round of The Challenge. The theme is electronics and its REALLY a mixed bag! Above is  a montage of items, plus a free mesh bed I picked up from Belle Epoque , you get four colours and each has poses for a singleton – low prim and perfect for photo props. Group is free to join also – I did notice as I was going through my emails that they have another group gift out , so if the bed is gone might be something different?

Close up of the Zeus digital camera by NewChurch, its static , so great for slipping onto a table or in a photo. Lovely details and comes with the option of strap or no strap.

I fell in love with this bakers block and décor items from 22769 bauwerk – Super pretty and ever-so-low prim, you get the kettle, coffee machine and tins also – perfect for staging your home.

The Challenge – Its Asian Baby

The theme for this round of The Challenge is Asian, so don’t be surprised to see plenty of sushi and spring rolls ! Seriously totes amazing foody items this round, makes me a happy bunny. Jian has an incredible food set out, platters of Asian treats, VERY low Li and also colour change for the dishes, bottle & glasses. (The mainstore has just opened up – join the group and get your opening gift of candles!) Also in the frame are bauwerk with their beautifully adorned cabinet and assorted deco items, low prim and really on trend. The table I’ve laid the food out on is a bargain from Roots. I found on the market place, just 9L for the whole set, the fabrics have a choice of colours and designs built right in.

I was most impressed with this Asian themed sky box I found on the market place for just 10L. It’s by Zyn and is called “Little Zen Skybox”, only 36 prims in total and you get everything you see in the photo – with the exception of the bamboo plants. (I swapped out the flowers it came with for bamboo – easily done as its modify)

View from the Zen garden at the bottom of the build, raked sand and two benches complete the look.

The Challenge – Drifting

A new round of The Challenge has begun, and I’ve got the perfect thing to share with you for lazing about. This raft is by 22769 bauwerk and its stuffed with poses that will let you lounge about in the sunrays. Its called a beach raft but really it works for lakes and ponds also. Beautifully decorated with flippers, a cotton wrap that’s hanging on to the edge and a life ring it will bring some life to your water and peace to your soul. Theres even some water melon sliced and ready to chomp on ! The raft seats up to three people and there are 20 animations built right in – perfect huh?
