First a big thank you for everyone who sent keep safe messages and thoughts and prayers. I appreciate all of them and warmed me greatly. Right now it’s pretty calm and the expected arrival into my area is into late Sunday into Monday morning, and likely the strength of a category 3. While living in Florida most of my life has given me some experience of going through such extreme weather it can still be a little nerve wracking.
Today I’m posting items from ongoing events and some that are at or back in the main store.

Happy Thursday! It’s been a few days since I last posted here, only because I had a few items that I wanted to get done on my other blog at Alexa’s Fantasy Wardrobe. Though I’m back to show you some new great home and garden stuff. The first item that I am showcasing is this new skybox by the Hive available at this round of FaMESHed. It has a land impact of 15, approximate size is 16L x 13W x 8H, as you can see with the picture beneath it makes for a great outside view . I provided an inside view as well in the last pictures below, where it shows the wall of doors slightly open letting in the sun or air, which ever atmosphere you prefer.
It includes this little nook, which I have decorated with a few items – some from the arcade, old releases and the ones I’m featuring from Pastiche. They are the two chairs and table nearest to the window. The chairs come with a color texture hud giving you a few options to choose from. In this picture I went with some natural earthy colors. These will be at the upcoming Spoonful of Sugar Festival that opens on September 9th at 12 am SLT and will end September 25th.
This festival is going to benefit the Doctors without Borders/Medicins Sans Frontieres.100% of the proceeds of at least one item in each store will be directly donated to the charity plus a participation donation by each designer. All monies will be going to the American office of Medicins Sans Frontieres (Doctors Without Borders), an international organization that provides emergency medical aid to people affected by conflict, epidemics, disasters, or exclusion from health care regardless of politics, religion or other affiliations.
It’s going to be 5 sims with over 180 stores in fashion, home and garden and breedables. Below credits I have put some more information on this event.
The last items that are being featured are the trees by Little Branch shown in the second picture. As you can see they make for some wonderful landscaping. The Juniper are the ones with the swirl on the side of the skybox and you can find these at the new round of The Liaison Collaborative that runs until September 30th. The cedar trees come in two versions and these are available at FaMESHed, which ends on September 27th. Both are seasonal trees, which means on touch you can choose the season you want and it changes in texture to that season.
For every national and international disaster Doctor’s Without Borders has been there. There is no barrier, border, or line they will not cross, no length they will not go to too bring aid to those who need it most. Where there is need they are there giving generously all of their knowledge, talent, and skills. Now it is time to give back to them.
Second Life is a global community and with the help of AIM, LTD, ModeLS Magazine, The Second Life Enquirer, SL Live Radio, and Versus Magazine we will come together to celebrate the world wide movement of Médecins Sans Frontières with an entire two weeks of parties, events, and fundraising beginning Sept 9th to the 25th, 2016. Join us at The Spoonful of Sugar Festival as we jet off to old London for what this inaugural event and help MSF/DWB to make a difference in the world.
We have some of the most amazing, wonderful, and talented designers in fashion, home and garden, and breedables joining us to make this an event to remember. Take a moment to shop Alafolie, Ex Machina, Zuri Jewelry, Roanwood for exciting fashion and home goods. Stop by the Wonderful World of Meeroos or visit Wild Kajaera or Dragoos on the lovely breedables sim. There will be a little bit of everything from clothing, to hair, and skins. Our Home & Garden Sim will be filled with furniture, home accessories, and gorgeous houses that will make you the envy of your neighbors. Finally the breedable sim will house some of the most adorable, cute, and cuddly creatures that danced through anyones imagination. The best part it can all be yours and it will all benefit an amazing cause.
This is just the beginning though we have some fabulous events planned for the week including an opening gala event, fabulous London Bridge themed fashion show, live entertainment, dance parties, and more. Enjoy a carriage around Piccadilly with Elite Equestrian.

Featuring a new release by [Schultz Bros.], which is this skybox that is available now at this new round of Cosmopolitan. It’s copy/mod with only a 7 land impact and its approximately 15 x 11m. Great if you are limited in prim and need something small. I’ve included a collage picture below of how it looks unfurnished.
The skybox is furnished with some new and old stuff. The bed, ottomans, clock and mirror along with the nightstand are items by Bee Designs and it’s from their French Rose gacha. It was from a previous event, but you should be able to find it at the store. The stuffed sheep near the stairs are also by Bee Designs, and are from this round of Lost & Found, but it ends tonight, so they should be available at the store. They are the cutest things and make great decor for anywhere in the house.
Here’s a close up of the dogs. The adult wanderer I’ve shown previously in a post and it’s the reward dog when you hit the JIAN machine at the Arcade 25 times. The family bed is a common and its texture change for both the dogs and the bed. It’s also only 1 land impact.
Happy shopping!

I’m posting later in the day than I like as time just seemed to run away from me today and it’s the first time I’m getting to sit at the computer. Today I am featuring the latest creation by DaD Designs, which is the Sun Forest Cottage home. It’s a lovely cottage centered on a vintage / shabby chic theme. It basically has two large rooms, one separated by a wall with an opening giving it three rooms altogether. The porch has a glass roof top with leaves that can be changed by touch and you get nine colors to give you the season you want.
I have included some additional pictures at the bottom and details on the house from the creator to give you the view from the front of the house and the inside. It’s currently available at Shiny Shabby.
Enjoy the rest of your Monday!

The [Den] released a new home called the South Woods Plus, which is a larger version of its South Woods Retreat home featured last year here. It is a lot roomier at 16x21x8m, with a land impact of 56 and is 100% mesh. Available currently at Uber until February 23rd.
I’ve listed every item used in the picture, but nothing is new except the house being featured.
I became familiar with DaD Designs through their landscape creations and now being reintroduced again through their newest creation of the Tuscany Loft. The loft at a footage of 24 x 30 is 100% original mesh and only a 40 land impact. It’s beautifully textured and quite spacious and can be purchased at 20% off while at the Cosmopolitan Room. It’s quite a bargain for only $390 lindens.
I’ve decorated using items already in my inventory and provided all the details below.

Some home decor items to show you today. The Fantasy Collective is now open and Jian brings you the Demilune set, which includes the sofa, chair, coffee table, a side table, book and candle decor. With this set you get the option of texture change on all the wood. To be exact about 7 choices there. I find that I’m always going for the darker wood versions, so I thought maybe a little changing up here would be good. This is the grey wood that I’m displaying. The rug also has a texture option that gives you six choices in color. You can find this set in PG and Adult version with loads of animations in each.
I’m using the boxwood shrubs in the background just outside the window again that are from Jian, a recently released set that works with a HUD to give you the option of choosing the season you want. It’s summer here so I did a mixture of that and spring.
I am wearing some new items that MoDANNA has at the Manga Fair. The Sakura Collection, is a kawaii punk inspired collection that includes the jacket and skirt shown here. You will find the jacket in 6 pastel colors and the skirt in 6 patterns, but that’s not all in the collection. You can also find ties and kawaii socknimals (applier socks with animal print at top) that can be mixed and matched with all the items.
