Modern Art?(Freebie).

Doesn’t this look like a lovely piece of art which I guess everything in SL really is.

Zoom out and of course, it’s a tree.

A fantastic heads up from a friend, gonna now call our “followers” friends because that’s what you’ve become.  Anyhow it was perfect timing because today has been a sh*te day and it was time something nice happened and this was it.  A lovely freebie from “Little Branch” which I think most people who have a home in SL will know that shop well.  This is a big tree and 12 prims but it’s a plot stuffer and as you can see from the pictures it’s thick and lush what you can’t see is that this is a moving tree so it is gently swaying in the breeze, so unlike the trees outside my house at the moment as we are taking a little bit of battering at the mo.

Kiylee also told me about an event called “Blueprint Home and Garden Event” which is where I left my AV stood because as soon as I click publish I’m going to spend some leisurely time wandering around there.

PS.  My “sh*te day is not the worst but I can still grumble and mumble about it but I hope EVERYONE out there is doing OK! as in the UK we’re having a bit of a battering with the wind and of course in some parts of the world they’re suffering very badly from extreme weather so my “problems” are pretty minor.

PPS I promise my next post will be clothing! I know that a lot of people don’t have homes in SL so I will make sure to find some wearable cuties for my next post.

Little Branch & Across the brige The Blueprint Home and Garden Event

Lots and lots of sweet sugar.(10Ld, 20Ld and some freebies).

I went to the “Spoonful of Sugar event” and also into full spendy mode.  This event is to raise money for a charity I should imagine we all know and that’s Doctors without Borders.  A truly worthy cause so if you have Lindens to spend then it’s time and trust me there is plenty of things to spend Lindens on and I did!

But now for the bargains.

So there are lots of shops with lots of temptation and lots of bowls of sugar set out for us.  These sugar bowls are priced at 10 or 20Lds and contain this n that and in the Raindale sugar bowl is everything you can see in these 2 pictures.

I can’t remember how much I paid for these but again it was either 10 or 20Lds which is just a piddling amount. Everything inc the garden swing is low primmed.

There is a total of 5 sims and although I’m showing you decor items there are many shops for clothes, shoes etc.  There are also some freebies as I did spot them in a few shops but not many as of course they want us to spend and I want to buy lol.

PLUS if you’re a social butterfly there are events going on and I sat for a while as a fashion show was being held and it was nice to see so many other AV’s just taking a moment of their time to just sit and join in.

Too much dumbness! (99Ld Discount).

Yes, I’m “throwing the towel in” on RL and hiding in SL, too many dumb people and sadly that includes me as I for some INSANE reason decided I’d try to get my cat to do something my cat didn’t want to do.  Please don’t worry they’re only flesh wounds.

So I was meandering here there and everywhere basically and ended up at Angelic Designs.  In the UK we don’t really do much for Halloween but if you do then you can find some really interesting Halloween themed items here everything from a bus discharging its Zombie kids to floating skeletons to foul up any pond or pool you have…don’t worry Faith I didn’t buy any of those for the sim what I did buy was these hedges.

I’ve just used our sims Autumn windlight setting and don’t they look amazing?  You only get 2 shapes, long and thin hedges the same long thin hedge shape but one has a flattened back to go against a wall. I’ve used 2 of them to fill in the corner of our largest field. It comes with a hud which allows you to change the size and colour of the hedging.

If you press your nose right up to your screen you might just be able to make out that under the hedge is a layer of fallen leaves which goes a long way to blending this hedge into the landscaping and guess what?  each hedge is ONLY 2 PRIMS! That whole corner comes to a piddling 4 prims and it’s a big assed corner!

It does come with a price tag but until Thur morning it’s a measly 100 or 99Ld price and after that, it goes back up to full price.   The LM should take you to where this and a few other discounted items are but if it doesn’t emm I think there is a TP.  I got the LM for this from the group notices which is only 1Ld to join and I didn’t spot any GG’s but then again I snagged and ran without checking for any.

Remember though if you’re a Halloweenie then check out her whole sim shop and there are some pretty damned unique designs.

Do you trust me?????? (50Ld GG’s more than I’m showing you).

I just wanna have fun so I’ve played with editing but “trust me” not just the 2 items I’m showing you but all the GG’s I picked up from Una’s ARE shop quality.

This outfit is the “Dulenceia” and you get 6 shades in total, 2 light ones and 4 dark and rich shades.  The other outfit I picked up is the similar one but with a short skirt and that’s called “Ambrosia Corset” and that one comes in 5(or 6) super colours and extra ribbons to wear. The last item of clothing I picked up is a dress called “Grace”, this dress only comes in the 1 size but it fitted me easily and I should imagine it will fit most shapes and .his also comes with 6 shades.

There is more there than the 1 I’ve shown you and the 2 I’ve described and also there is a pair of shoes in the ribboned box.  I think it’s marked clearly what the sizes are but it doesn’t tell you that you get the Fat Packs for the colours so that was a lovely surprise..I even like the purple and blue shades!

Mixed in with the clothes are some fun items such as this book landscaping pack.  A mix of books that lie on the ground to create a path and those oversized ones for decor are pretty low primmed.  The path is just 4 prims and each book is just 1.

So a bit of a mixed bag but you won’t be disappointed.  There is also some lucky boards with prizes well worth hanging around for plus either a 25Ld Tue or 30Ld Sat offer which was very tempting.

PS.  Forgot to mention the dress I am showing you is gulp, pantiless! Which means you either have to wear your own or go commando.

I’m finished clicking. (Mention of sooooooo many freebies but not shown).

I’ve just turned a bit of the landscaping on our sim into Autumn colours but I’m going to stop as I want to ease into the new season and not go crashing in.  So once I’d finished doing that I popped over to the Redeux event and we all know this event so well because of the MASSIVE amount of gifts which are set out for us.  I’ve not started to unpack yet but when I log back in I’m going to spend a pleasant afternoon unpacking, sorting and yes, of course, binning my way through the lot and I will LOVE every minute of it.

But of course the gifts are set out to tempt us in but they’d like us to buy and buy I did! In the end I spent over 500Lds on things that tempted me inc these shoes.

“Dorothy” is on the NOIR stand and didn’t cost me 500Ld only 35Lds add to that a lovely colour hud which allows you to change the shoe and bow but not the off-white part on your toes.  You get fits for all main mesh feet plus a “material” and “non-material” version which is not a common feature, although I do have to say that all Mina’s hair comes with this option.  The “non-material” version is kinder on people who have slow running computers but I have to say it took me a long time to work that out as sometimes it’s hard to even notice a difference.

Then I picked this up from the Simply Shelby shop.  I’ve seen this umbrella plant a few times as of course Simply Shelby is one of those shops that has an awful lot of excellent discounted item out on a regular basis.  Taken in my sim setting and it’s 8 prims.  I’m pretty sure this cost either 25, 30 or 35Lds because I bought so many things I forgot the exact price tag.

I know for sure this cost me 50Lds.

Just the cooker and not the drying rack.  I rezzed it quickly to check it out and love it and because it’s only 3 prims I will leave it there for the moment.  Sad to say I have a whole folder of cookers but when I spot something different I just can’t help myself.  Velvet Whip is the stand/shop for this item.

So LOTS of really good gifts at this event but make sure to check out the other items for sale because a lot of them have very discounted items on them and there is an excellent mix of clothes, decor, landscaping, fantasy, realistic goodies for everyone.

UPDATE.  I forgot to click “Publish” and so now I’ve had time to unpack all of the gifts I can only say, make sure you go!  So many “ooo’s” and “aaah’s” to be found, a BIG Thanks needs to be said to the shops/designers who have been so generous.

Stepping on Faiths toes.(Freebie, maybe, 5Ld hunt prize definately).

So there I was trying to bin stoof and I got more stoof sent to me from EED as a sub gift.  Sub gifts are such a great reminder for people/addicts to come back and check out your shop which worked on me.

I think you can work out what the sub gift is but I bet you can’t work out the prims! Only 3prims for lots of details.  Just in case you’re wondering it’s the little round stone base with the pipework and flower stuffed pails.  Sadly for my addiction, this isn’t mod because you just know I would have torn it apart but again only 3 prims!  Perfect for a small garden or yard.

I did slap the sub-board but I couldn’t get another one sent out to me so I’m not sure if you will but it doesn’t hurt to go slap it and wait and in a minute/hour/day etc you too may get this delivered to you or at worst you won’t miss out on any future sub-gifts.

I like the sort of landscaping garden items you get from EED because not everyone is like Faith or I because we love constantly tweaking our sim, we have folders STUFFED with plants/landscaping etc but not everyone had the time or energy and money to do all of that but EED (Exquisite Eye Design) shop has ready-made landscaping/garden features and the most work you have to do is drag and drop it onto your land and Voila.

Faith’s already done a couple of items she found doing the “The Creative Spark” hunt but I checked and she’s not done this and this mini “Monkey Island” is the hunt gift from EED.  I should have zoomed back and taken a picture to show you the full size as it’s not very big and it’s blended in a bit with my beachy platform. It’s intended to be your small little bit of paradise.  So even if you rent a tiny little plot of land or have a corner of your garden that you would like to “beachify” then this is perfect.

Repeats, repeats bloddy repeats!(Freebies).

I’ve had this post in my drafts for quite a while now and I just want to throw this post in so I can clear my clutter up.  Some of the items shown you may have seen in my previous post but you may not have seen that or now you might be in a situation where you could use some quality decor items.

The folding screen, the rug, the hat with hud but at 2 prims also makes a great decor item, a coffee mug and cake, those excellent candlesticks and although you can’t see it clearly on the very top box is an orange cake that looks so yummy you wish you could just cut a slice off it.  Not all the Group Gifts are shown here so GO GO GO….just don’t go using your old LM use mine as the shop has been moved to a temp place and the Gifts are right next to the LM.

Now look at the “cake stands” in the bottom left corner, these come from the Decor Junction shop and aren’t actually cake stands they’re “organisers” and I will say I did buy my Dad one for Christmas one year.  You get 3 of them and as you can see they’re editable as I shrunk one.  If I remember correctly only 1 prim even at full size but I could be wrong.  There are other GG’s in this shop as well of modern looking coffee/side tables which again look really good but wouldn’t have fitted in with the style of the picture.

And now for the last shop and I TPed to my front door to put the planters there.

HjM Design has these as well as other gifts and I am kicking myself because there was one I did want to show you and it’s little table top planters which are cute.  Never mind you will see them for yourself if you go to get these. Yup they’re editable and copy and so you can rip them apart and those bold flowers will add more interest to your landscaping.
