Tea party

On March 27, 2018 By AlexaIn Uncategorized3 Comments

Hello again. I was in such a rush this morning, that I didn’t get to write anything about what I was showcasing. I started my morning with rolling over in bed when my phone went off around 6 am with a message from a friend who forgets we are 6 hours apart. I am not one to turn off my phone at night. As one of the oldest in my immediate family it’s a given I’m one of the first in the call list in case of an emergency. I’m also trying to break the habit of reading the news right before bedtime. Guess I need to work on it a little more. Though I now have two new reading glasses, one for backup just in case.

Today I’m featuring some fabulous goodies. The Garden shed by Mesh India is a really pretty building. I will be showing it on its own in the next few days. You can find it at the new round of Cosmopolitan. Anhelo has made a beautiful teapot set with a picnic basket called Dolce. Everything about this set just brings a smile as it brings fond memories of years gone by to memory. It is available now at Uber.

The climbing ivy is by DaD-Virtual Living- out now at Collabor88. Then the last two items I’m featuring are hunt gifts at the Land of Rainbow from Apple Fall and Dahlia.

Check the credits below for all the details!

Beautiful days like this is what I look forward to

On February 9, 2018 By AlexaIn Uncategorized2 Comments

I’m going to take liberty to post again today, because in doing so I feel caught up to some releases at events like The Epiphany that is about to end in a couple of days. I’ve probably pushed myself more than I should have as I’m still in recovery mode, but thankfully so far for the most part I am doing well and it’s been great to get back to blogging.

I’m showcasing Cheeky Pea, who has the “Lovebug” gacha at The Epiphany event. If you haven’t played now would be the best time to go grab some of these wonderful decor items. I’m also showing items from the Honey Farm gacha by DAWN at The Gacha Gardens. The small rustic house and bee hives are all part of this gacha.

The garden shelf is a previously released item by Anhelo for Fifty Linden Friday, right about the time I had to take time off so I’m finally getting a chance to show it off. Little Branch has been really active lately with some fantastic landscaping items, like these mango trees. I love mangos, it is one of my favorite fruits and when they’re in season its a must have.

Check out credits right below to get the details where you can find everything shown.

Until next time… which will be tomorrow. 🙂

It’s that time of year for sure where you see pumpkins galore in real and virtually here in Second Life. If you missed out on this past week’s Fifty Linden Friday, then you missed these great baskets of pumpkin by Hive. Though you’ll be able to find them at the main store and really make for some nice decor for this season.

I’m also showcasing items from the month’s subscription box to Deco(c)rate. If you’re not familiar with this decor subscription, then I invite you to visit their website for more information and also how to find out where to purchase the mystery box. I” give you the short version that it’s a monthly mystery box filled with original mesh home and garden decor. You get a about 15 different items from some of the best known designers.

This month’s theme is Harvest Moon and Convair is participating with the Berkshire Barn. The barn has weathered and worn wood detail with tall rafters. It’s original design and mesh, with scripted doors and access control. It has a land impact of 136, and is scaleable, but you run the risk of a higher impact.

Serenity Style is another participant this month with the Raven Dream in the Porch Bench with pumpkin decor box and flying leaves. The land impact is 1 for the leaves – 5 for pumpkin decor and 7 for bench.

I wasn’t anticipating being in the picture, but when I had my camera set and I was standing just in the middle I sat down on the bench and I ended up changing the angle slightly. This also allowed me to feature the boots by Mosquito’s Way, which are available at The Liaison Collaborative.

All pretty stuff to have.

Have a great one!

Spring is the first kiss of summer

On February 26, 2017 By AlexaIn Home, Landscaping2 Comments

Of all the seasons I think that Spring is the one that I have less landscaping stuff for. I have an abundance of Autumn and Winter and basic green stuff that covers Summer. It may be time to scout for some new landscaping, so if anyone has any good recommendations for spring landscape let me know.

I’m showcasing the Timber Cove Cottage, a new release by DaD Design for Shiny Shabby. It’s a lovely home with a land impact of 113 with a main area, bedroom and bathroom area. Below credits you can find out more information directly from the creator.

The other items that I am showing are from JIAN and Shutter Field in collaboration with Decor Junction. The first is the hanging couch with the dog, which is a rare item in the Scruffy Shepherd gacha set by JIAN for the Arcade coming March 1st. If you want a peek of the key for the gacha, look here.

Shutter Field and Decor Junction made Adirondack seats for this round of Tres Chic. I’m showing the green colored version, but there is a white and driftwood version as well and come with single and couple animations.

I might have mentioned in a previous post or two that I don’t watch a lot of television, especially in the last few years. Until now, the last time I tuned in to watch anything was the election debates. Recently, my niece introduced me to a few shows on Netflix, which have been entertaining and since there’s no commercials I have been on a binge watching a few shows at a time.

I just finished watching the first season of the series, “The Ranch,” and while not overly fond of all the cursing in the movie it kept me entertained enough to keep seeing it until the last show. The comedy follows the return of a struggling semi-pro football player, to his Colorado home to help run the family farm with his father and older brother. All played by familiar known names in the acting profession.

My pictures were not inspired necessarily from watching the movie itself. It was from the theme song, “Mamas Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys,” originally performed by Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings. I remember hearing this song when I was growing up, and it made me smile as I thought of that long ago memory.

In the first picture is another wiener dog by JIAN, the Ducky PJs wanderer, which is a common in the Wonky Weenies gacha at the Arcade. The rest of the decor items also previously shown, are from the Hive’s American Countryside collection, and also available at this round of the Arcade.

The second picture was a just because and similar to an image that played with the theme song in the series.

Holding on to what holds on to you

Another peek into the Arcade. Today I am showing the Glasswings Collection by {Reverie}. These are wearable items made for Maitreya, Slink Physique and Hourglass. There are 10 pieces to the collection and two color versions of this outfit. I’m wearing this monarch and somewhat vintage white with only the hand accessory not worn. The other color version is blue.

I’m holding another color of the lively labs by JIAN, also available at the Arcade. The other two items being featured are also by JIAN and they are the floating candles in the metal bowl and the glass containers on the bench. Both are texture change on touch. They were available for Fifty Linden Friday, but unfortunately I wasn’t able to blog them in time. Though check the store as sometimes creators leave their items at that price until the weekend.

Enjoy the rest of your Sunday!
