Morning! Not much time today to spare and my system has gone crazy on me this morning and I fear rebooting and then not being able to post before I take off.  So wishing you all a fantastic day!

Always take time to make a joyful mess

On By AlexaIn Uncategorized2 Comments

Yesterday, in organizing my photos for the week I realized that I got several showcasing items at Bloom.  Now if you’re familiar with this event, then you know it’s a short event that lasts just a little over two weeks with doors closing at the end of the month.  I had the pleasure of blogging the event and it’s always great to be a part of an event like this.  The downside sometimes can be when you also have a lot of sponsors at the event and you try to squeeze everyone in.

Saying that I’ll be doing a second post again tomorrow.  Today’s picture is showcasing a release by DRD for Bloom.  The cake counter is messy and reminiscent of when I bake, because I like bringing everything out, the recipe book, the ingredients, the bowls and baking dish.

The counter is 9 land impact and comes with animated poses. You get to clean, whisk, beat and read the recipe book — great for role-play.  The rest of the items used are listed below.

It's a bit of a hodgepodge.

On By AlexaIn UncategorizedLeave a comment

I’m having one of those weekends where my Second Life leaves a lot to be desired. I know that I’m not alone in this — we’ve all experienced issues in the recent days. Yesterday I had inventory and rezzing issues and no one I knew seemed to be having them, so I feel a bit special.  Of course it’s always at an inopportune time. Like when you have a few dozen of boxes you need to unpack.

Thankfully, today seems a bit better so I was able to get a picture done.  I have to admit that I struggled a bit putting this scene together. I’ll borrow DRD’s words from their current release — it’s a bit of a ‘hodgepodge’.

I hope you have a great Sunday!

There's a lot of history and memories waiting to be made in this home

On By AlexaIn Uncategorized3 Comments

Happy Saturday everyone!  It’s a quick post, but I’m excited to show the bonus reward for DRD’s monthly Shadow Box subscription.  For those of you who don’t know about this, it’s a monthly mystery box that contains 12 items, usually half in a light version and the other in a dark more sinister type version.  Every month is part of a series, which is 6 months.  At the conclusion of a series and if you’ve purchased each series or all shadow boxes then you will receive a bonus reward. This home is the bonus reward for the first series that just completed. I encourage you to visit the DRD website for more information.

I’m also showcasing these awesome morning glory wildflowers by Heart, currently available at FaMESHed. The packs comes in a few colors, and just perfect for the season were coming into.

Have a great one!!

The time of lace tablecloths and doilies

On By AlexaIn Uncategorized2 Comments

I have fond memories of lace tablecloths and lace doilies strewn around our home as well in both set of grandparents homes as I was growing up.  It gave a touch of elegance and no doubt it was also a means to protect the wood underneath. Well it did in our family, as it couldn’t have been easy for my mom with eight children. Being we are all just one or two years apart in age you can perhaps imagine what a house full of children running around could be like.  Just writing these words gives me an overwhelming admiration and respect for my mom.

Once again DRD has outdone themselves with the January Shadowbox.  I’m featuring the light version items, which as you can see are amazing.  I encourage you to visit the DRD website for more information on how you can subscribe.  This is the last set in Series o1 and if you’ve purchased the whole set you will have received the bonus, which I will be showcasing next. I was going to do them in this one post, but I felt it was too beautiful and needed to be shown separate.

So stay tuned!

Rustic Christmas

On By AlexaIn Uncategorized2 Comments

Morning everyone.  It’s a good day despite some minor annoyance this morning, though I speak for a better day. It’s all about attitude so I’m definitely working on that personally. Today I’m bringing a bit of rustic to our lives.  I might have spoken about this before in years past, but my family and I get into theme decorating each year.  This year we all sort of reverted to the traditional classical Christmas colors. Though one of my favorite themes is rustic country and I’ve collected quite a bit of ornaments and decor surrounding that particular setting. Though honestly I really love all themes and the real joy comes from being able to create beautiful displays that bring smiles and happiness and well honestly they serve as great backdrops for family photos… we’re vain like that.  Laughs.

So while I didn’t have much time to go digging into my inventory to do something a little more with this scene I hope it still inspires you in creating your own wonderful themed Christmas. If you want a little rustic, then visit all the wonderful creators below to grab some of their amazing works.

Enjoy!
