The Cranmore

0033ps

I mentioned in my blog post yesterday that today I would be featuring a new home. So today I bring you The Cranmore by creator Cain Maven. If you’ve been around Second Life for a while you’re probably already familiar with his homes under his brands Maven Homes and also Quantum Luxury Homes.

Both brands offer you high quality homes in various styles in a wide range of prices. Though having just recently toured one of the previous new releases, the “Roma” home, beautiful large luxury home is almost too simple to describe the beauty and magnificence in size and looks of that particular home.

0062ps

The Cranmore is way smaller in comparison, but it’s also not a small home either at a size of 32 m x 35 m.  It’s a bit of a mixed brick style build as you get a bit of a renovated barn with an industrial rustic feel with a touch of modernness. What I especially liked immediately upon entering the home was the sense of not feeling like I was boxed in.  I think that’s attributed to the openness, large picture windows and the high ceilings, which is something you don’t find a lot these days.

015ps

The rooms in the house include a bedroom, bathroom, front room, a kitchen with a dining/living room space and attic. The kitchen and bathroom decor is removable. I had a little fun decorating the kitchen with old and new items.  The kitchen as mentioned is an open plan where you have the dining room and another living room space.  The picture below shows the other side of the kitchen as you enter it through the open barn doors.

018ps

You can see the attic space in the picture above that gives you another level to put in another bedroom, office or another sitting area.  Plus you can see what I mean about the openness and high ceilings.

022ps

Above is the bathroom and the next picture is the bedroom.  Just take a look at the realistic detail of the materials used.

021ps

In the second picture you saw the home from the back and you see the big window just behind the green loungers, which are another collaboration by Shutter Field and Decor Junction and are available currently at Tres Chic.

If you click the window or the wheel on the wall, you will see the wheel begin to spin as the window opens, giving you this wonderful view out or whatever view you may have once positioned.  You can see my hands there as I am taking a breather enjoying the night hours and the flock of birds.  Now most species of birds rest during the night as I came to read, though there are some birds like for instance some sparrows that fly at night during migration periods. I think it was one of those periods.

024ps2

If you read and saw all the pictures, thank you for taking the time as I know it’s a very long post.

Below credits I’ve also listed information the creator has provided. The house is set to be released this weekend, and while I’ve done best to show you the house from almost every angle, go check it out for yourself!

There’s no place I rather be than home

When I got this skybox to blog the first thing that caught my eye was the design. My mind started to think of how I could decorate it, to create a living space without a big emptiness in the middle and keeping in mind the view from the windows.  You can see it without the furniture below. That’s where I challenged myself to completely decorate it and hoping that I would have enough prim to do so. It’s mesh and the quality of the textures are very good. It’s by Dubu and available now at SaNaRae until October 18th.

The other items that are being featured today are some of the decor pieces in the room.  Some of the plants on the table and on the stairs are by .aisling. and are available at the Fantasy Collective.  There are two sets: the Mandragorae includes four versions with texture change via menu and Herbae includes three versions with texture change via menu as well.  Each plant is only 1 land impact.

ubu-011

The vase in the table with twigs and the book near it sitting on top of some other books are by Serenity Style and at LTD The Event.  Unfortunately, it is the last round for this event as it was unexpectedly announced to us yesterday.  I’ve included vendor pictures of both the plants and the items by Serenity below credits so there is no confusion.

The remaining pictures with the one on top of this text and below are so that you can see the details and quality of the skybox.

My credits lists is huge and while I tried my best to stay in some particular order I might have gotten distracted and wandered from side to side as I copied and pasted. Though as always, if you want to know about any particular item, please don’t hesitate to contact me via comments, in-world or even flickr.

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.

009ps

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!

The Tribeca Loft

“There is a loftier ambition than merely to stand high in the world.  It is to stoop down and lift mankind a little higher.” ~ Henry Van Dyke

Dad Jian 014ps

It’s been a while since I’ve decorated to this extent, but I was in the mood to do it with this newly released loft by DaD Design at the Monsieur Chic, a new men’s high fashion shopping event that will also have some furniture.  The Tribeca loft is a limited edition item and only 100 of these will be sold, so grab yours quickly.  More information on the loft is below the credits and I have also included a photo collage of the loft itself.

Click photo to enlarge

Another item that is being featured today is the cream and brown armchairs by DaD Design as well.  They come in pg and adult versions and are just so inviting with some very nice sit, cuddle animations in the pg versions shown here and can fit both an indoor or an outdoor setting.  These are available now at the Monsieur Chic event as well.

The last items being featured are the curious cats by Jian.  Now you must understand that I am not a cat person in either world, so it’s kind of hard to call them adorable.  Though Jian does a great job in creating some cute animals for us to enjoy the experience of having pets in-world.  Apart from stationary cats there are wandering ones that walk freely and then clinging cats for those who want to carry them around.  These curious cats are available for the new round of The Gacha Garden.  I’m showcasing a couple of common ones, a few rares and also the seed of inspiration gift that is received after a player does 20 pulls on a single machine.  I’ve put the event website below the credits, if you want more information and want to learn how to play.

The rest of the items used are from past events and a considerable amount of them are gachas.

I knew who I was this morning, but I’ve changed a few times since then

Buglets 001

There is a saying that your soul is healed by being with children.  I can attest to that having been around children for the most part in the last twenty plus years. Last night I was watching a one minute video of my nephew’s five month old son as he grabbed both of his feet in his hands and then proceeded to raise his right foot directly into his mouth.  It gave me a good chuckle as it brought back memories of my nephew, the baby’s father, having done the same thing when he was at his age. The laughter and the good memory was medicine to the soul.

It makes me reflect on the times when I take off the shield of my adult persona and get into the small size jumping bag of beans of little me and I realize how quickly the mood alters.  It’s subtle and yet there is like an automatic shift in my atmosphere as I wiggle around in the small shape.

Buglets 002

My soul needed a little healing, so thank you Buglets for this lil witch costume to feature.  The set is available at The Play Room that opens today.  It is a gacha set that includes 8 commons: hat, top, skirt, tights, flats, bucket, bracelet and flying broom and 1 rare – the cauldron with four poses.

I’m also featuring the little Halloween hair clip by Buglets that can be found at this month’s round of Hello Beautiful.  It comes with a texture change HUD for the bow and pumpkin.

Take me back to another time

Unkindness 014

Hello everyone!  After a short and much needed break from Second Life and blogging I am back for a while.  During the next few months I will probably be taking a few breaks here and there as I continue to sort out some things in real life and anticipating a move in the near future as well.  In the meantime I am looking forward to once again showing you some of the awesome stuff that can be found on the grid.

Today I am featuring some new decor items by unKindness and Culprit.  The Autumn vanity set by unKindness is currently at FaMESHed and includes the vanity table with mirror, the cushion that has animated and static poses and three choices in wreaths for you to decorate for the Fall season.

Culprit is participating in this round of the Mix with their Wish You Were Here Set. That’s the blue tray that has some delicious goodies like petit cakes and hot chocolate.  The set includes a tray with everything on it as pictured, or if you prefer to use one or more pieces around the house then it also comes with individual items for you to use.   Personally, I love it when a creator gives you those kinds of options.

If you haven’t picked up these cute adorable cuddle bears on the chair, which are a gift by BoOgErS at the Arcade.  You better hurry before the event concludes at the end of the month.

I have a bit of catching up to do as I sort through my inventory, but hope to bring you a few more things over the weekend.  The end dates of the events where these items can be found are listed below in the details.

Un Jian 014

I’ve had computer issues all day and still trying to resolve it.  I was one step close to throwing a major hissy fit and throwing the thing out the window if not for the calming effect of a friend, who provided compassion, guidance and sound judgment when mine went out the door.

As a result, my post will not be very long, but I did want to get this out today to show the latest home decor offerings by a couple of creators.  The retro living room set is by unKindness and is currently available at the Cosmopolitan Event that runs bi-weekly.  Each of the pieces are sold separately or you can grab them all at a discount buy purchasing them as a set.   You will find animations for male, female and couples.

Next, are the mermaid canvas paintings on the wall and the ones leaning against the window by Jian.  These paintings are texture change by the touch of a menu giving you several choices of art to choose from to fit your decor and style.  I went with this particular art as the colors blended well with the retro set and I was wanting to show these items as soon as possible and took advantage of showing them together.  The canvas art can be found at the newest round of Enchantment.
