Home & Garden

Change is interesting. I like rezzing homes and landscaping around them, but I move at a snail’s pace so I kept my PM home for over 2 years. I really liked that house, it was simple and only had 4 rooms so it was perfect for me since I take forever to decorate.

I’ve finally deleted the PM home from my sim today to make room for a new one! But I miss it already! I miss my pool too, but I never really use it sooo.. bye bye old house…

my old house

Hello new house! My work in progress:

my new house

It’ll probably take me awhile to landscape and I might put my pool back but re-texture it to match the house.

/Update: Here’s the link to purchase the VRD Prefab Island Cottage home!

Spruce Up Your Space has a fantastic theme this month – it’s Beachy Keen! I love the beach in SL, so bought a lot of stuff for my beach. I’m a total sucker for beachy items *hint hint* so if SL creators wanted to tempt me, they know how!

What Next – English Seaside Beach Hut

How adorable is this English Seaside Beach Hut? There are lots of interactive poses built-in and the texture is just fantastic. It blends right in with my beach, and I love the soothing color combination. I feel relaxed already!

Reading on the deck chair (book is included)

Who doesn’t have a sexy lifeguard fantasy? (Thanks to Baywatch!) This Naughty Lifeguard Tower from Belle Belle includes interactive poses for a couple that ranges from PG to naughty poses. This was such a steal at $150L but it’s no copy and no mod.

If you want something a little more sophisticated, but still airy and open, check out the Glam Cabana from Second Spaces. The set includes 2 chaise loungers with built-in poses, the cabana, cute accessories and a chandelier! How glam!

Last but not least, this adorable Windbrooke prefab also has a matching set of Laterns for sale. The curtains and lanterns are scripted with a color change menu so I colored them both Pink! Panache is an old brand that’s mostly known for hair but I’m pretty happy they seem to be back (somewhat) with a couple of furniture items and prefabs. I’m definitely looking forward to more items cos I love the textures.

I’ve been wanting to blog a bunch of furniture but fashion things always gets blogged ahead of everything else. I’ll start by blogging my new Coeur skybox and a few MudHoney items that goes perfectly with it.

This Coeur Home “sweet” Home skybox is so very Juicy! There are 4 fruit themes – Citrus, Strawberry, Watermelon, and a special group gift, Cherry. I picked Strawberry cos I liked the Pink walls, but they’re all pretty so I might change it up once in awhile.

This MudHoney Lawrence Office set is so sweet, and includes everything pictured above. I like that it includes everything you would need to set up an office space (desk, laptop, desk accessories and book shelf) and also includes additional seating areas to entertain friends or relax.

I have a few more things to blog later, since this month’s Spruce Up Your Space theme is beachy and I looooooooove the beach!

Gypsyville – Houseboat

Gypsyville – Lifeguard Tower

Have you been to Gypsyville? This newly launched brand has a small but growing collection of colorful furniture and prefabs. I adore their liberal use of colors and prints.

Gypsyville – Puerto Villa

My favorite has to be the pieces from this Country Apple Kitchen set. It’s PINK!!

This Blogger’s Office set is on sale for $150L this weekend only (so you have a few hours left!) as part of the Spruce Up Your Space event. The set includes most of what you see pictured above (minus the wall painting) and a few pictures I placed on the desk.

I desperately needed to update my “home office” even though I rarely actually sit down and use it, I like to pretend I do. Every blogger needs an office!!!! My old one was a desk from La Belle Vie (no longer in SL) that I loved but the desk alone was 24 prims and didn’t really include any matching accessories.

The Blogger’s Office set includes this cute laptop, and you can even customize the screen with your own images. I am using one of the images included in this laptop — check it out! It’s WordPress! It was kind of freaky watching SL Gogo use WordPress cos this is a screen that I stare at on a daily basis.

The office chair includes some built-in poses for both Male & Female. This is super cute, I’m “thinking” here.

…and drinking!

and typing!

While I was at What Next, I also picked up this adorable Pretty in Pink Armchair, which is a great deal at $75L. This is part of Project Themeory, so get it while it’s still on sale 🙂

I love skyboxes!! I live on my own sim so I don’t really need it for privacy, but I like that it’s lag free when you’re hundreds of meters away from all the stuff on the ground.

Elate has just released this new Tree Skybox, which is so spacious and includes some decorations. There’s plenty of room around the tree to place your own, too.

Everything you see is included and it’s even scripted with a few sitting and laying poses.

Chill area

Comfy bed

The skybox is inside a rezzer, so it’s super easy to set up. I like that this skybox is copy/mod so you can move stuff around if you want to.

Visit Elate!!

NO BOYS ALLOWED!

This Sweet Baby Play House is perfect for kid avatars OR shorter avatars. I am a head taller than the door, so if I want to play here, I need to wear my kid shape. Isn’t it SWEET?

This play house comes in a few colors – Pink, Cream, and Blue (for boys, possibly)

The house is 66 prims, no copy, no mod, but transferrable.

I don’t like these perms at all. I wish it was copy, mod, no transfer.

This is a new sectional sofa from MudHoney. The sofa includes a texture change menu, built-in sitting and laying animations, and modifiable if you want to add your own textures!

I love the ‘L’ shape, this fits perfectly in a corner OR you can break it apart and make 2 chaise loungers.

I played with the texture change menu to create a few different looks!
