Autumn colors

On By AlexaIn Events, Gacha, HomeLeave a comment

I mentioned in my “Breakfast for dinner anyone?” post that I would be showcasing the Gilley Lake House by Thistle again.  Here it is once more with another room decorated with the country home set by Cheeky Pea and other decor items by various creators all listed below in credits.

The lake house is being shown without the steps in front or back.  It has a 127 land impact with a 23 x 23 footprint. You can change the colors of the inside walls with a texture change menu accessed by touching the keys near the front door. It has scripted doors & windows and is original mesh and provided as copy and mod. The picture below coming from the angle from the room where I showed the kitchen decor gives you somewhat of a view of the floor plan and colors.

 

 

 

 

Have a fabulous rest of the day

The Keys Bungalow

On By AlexaIn Events, Furniture, Gacha, Home, Landscaping4 Comments

It’s beautiful when our Second Life community comes together to support someone in need. I am going to link you directly to the plurk that will tell you all about what brought creators together to support another fellow creator through the ForMax Event.  Galland Homes has created this Keys Bungalow in support of the event.  It’s a one-room beach bungalow, which is an original mesh design and is 10 meters wide by 22 meters long.

I’m also showcasing the Luanes Wall Set by Serenity Style as well as several pieces from the Antiques Memories Gacha by [ zerkalo ], both of which can be found at the main store.

The event is only for 10 days, which is why I took the time to showcase it.

Enjoy!

In Everything Give Thanks. Happy Thanksgiving!

Today is Thanksgiving here in America and so wishing all my fellow American readers a wonderful and Happy Thanksgiving.

While I try to live an attitude of gratitude each and everyday this day does gives us all an opportunity to acknowledge and be grateful and thankful for the many blessings we have in our lives.

I certainly have many in both worlds starting with the love and support of family and friends.  I also count blogging as a blessing as it has provided me with a form of entertainment, relaxation and a platform for meeting so many wonderful people.  It has helped me grow in my photography skills and to evolve in the digitial art and media as well as social media, but I would not be as successful if it were not for the readers who follow and enjoy my work and click the “like” button or leave a kind word. Those small acts are part of what encourages me to continue to learn and grow.

My sincere THANK YOU to each and everyone of you!!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Last Christmas

Last Xmas 005ps

As I was going through the poses on this chair, which are a few for activities and sleep I settled on this one as it sort of fit my contemplative mood.  Gazing at the beautiful tree I thought of how different my last Christmas is to this year.  I don’t bemoan material things as those have never been that important to me.  No, I grieve the loss of people that were in my life then who no longer are.

For some reason I think this could be my last Christmas in Second Life.  I don’t know what the future brings obviously, it’s just more or less a thought that funneled through my mind right now.  On January 8th, I will have been in Second Life for 5 years, which in my book is a pretty long time.

That day is also very significant.  It was the same date of January 8th two years ago, that I also met someone who came to be a very important part of my life.  I miss that period in my life, where everyday was more carefree and not as heavy.  I miss him too.  My Christmas wish for him is always that he find peace, happiness and joy.

I’m thankful for many things, but today I’m just thankful for even the cool weather that has me shivering from cold.

Unkindness 002

There are days and many here lately where I can be driven to drink.  I’m just thankful that I’ve never been inclined to taking a drink to solve my problems.  I’m not much of a drinker at all.  I think I’ve mentioned this before on my blog a time or too.  One glass of wine is enough sometimes to get me tipsy.  Anything beyond that I’m in peril of my own tongue.

Even though it wasn’t planned this way.  Tonight as I write this blog I am disposed to celebrate as I got to reconnect with a certain someone, who continues to be someone important in my life.  I toast to the cherished bond we have. Cheers Italiano!

The luggage trolley I am sitting on is a new creation by unKindness and is currently available at the Love to Decorate Event, that will run from August 10th to August 24th.   It comes in four versions: iron, silver, gold or bronze with custom made poses – two for men, two for women and two for couples. It’s a fun piece in my book.

I also want to share some of the goodies I just recently found.  The Paris penthouse skybox I am using is from Barnesworth Anubis and is currently at Collabor88 for only 88 lindens!  It’s a steal and makes for a fabulous starter home or for anyone who has limited prims to use or lindens.  The other bargain and it really is a bargain! The remaining furniture minus the alcohol are from Apple Fall and can all be purchased for $0 lindens. I was surprised myself to find all these wonderful items for free.  I went to the main store to find a pendent lamp, which is a group gift this month and couldn’t find it and then had to resort to area search. It was during that area search for a $0 linden group gift that I discovered the rest of the furniture. Except, the frame with the flower, which can be found right now at FaMESHed with his items this month.

If you look further you might find some other items at $0 lindens throughout the store and many items have also been reduced as well. Great time to shop at Apple Fall. The bottles and glass are from [kunst] and can be found at the main store.

Happy shopping!

The sweet luxuries of having time

On By AlexaIn Events, Furniture, General, Home1 Comment

Aria 03

It used to be that taking long hot baths was just pretty common.  Something we did that was enjoyable and was a treat to ourselves.  It’s been quite a long time where I’ve indulged in this luxury.

The new round of FaMESHed is now open and [ARIA] has brought us a complete bathroom set.  It’s available in pg and adult and each comes with animations for singles and couples.  The set includes the bathtub, vanity, mirror, silk robe, towels hanging, toilet, soap dispenser, toothbrush holder and toilet paper.

The stool is Aria’s participation in the Mix Event and comes with 9 poses some with attachable props and with 8 texture change options.  It’s not meant for the bathroom, but I tested the animations and they work well enough to be used there.  In this day and age it won’t be strange for your guy to sit on the stool and drink coffee or work on the laptop while watching you take a soak. Just saying.

Palmistry 085

[ARIA] is participating in the newest round of TAG! Gacha, which is themed “The Side Show” with the Morgana’s Wonders Collection.  I am only showing a few pieces here, but there are 14 items to collect in total, with 11 being common, 2 rare and 1 mystery rare.  You can get a look at all the prizes at the website and all the gacha machines are at the individual stores .

The event is HUD based so that on a click it will teleport you to every store so that you can play the gacha machine.  Make sure you tag the board next to the gacha machine so your HUD knows you have been there and by tagging every board of participating stores it will unlock the bonus room and ultimately the prize room, where you can collect any of the mystery rares you might have received.

Get all the information on the event and  using the HUD at the TAG! website.   The event will run until April 30th.

MeshedUp 055

Another weekend and that means a new round of The Neighborhood, where creators/designers bring you home decor items for $200L.   MeshedUP is bringing you this vintage hall bench that comes decorated with single sits for female and male.  Also with the bench is the rug that has a pair of slippers nestled beside it.   Great pieces to decorate your home with.

Have a great weekend!
