Freebie time: watermelons!

I saw this cute vat with watermelons, tomatoes and beer on Tesh's blog, so I rushed to see the other freebies she mentioned. And oooh, I found lots and lots of watermelons :)







If you like these, join 'add9' group (you can do that through creator's profile: Canue Glazner) and check the notices. There are more watermelons as well as other gifts!

Freebie time: Artists prim kit

I came across this cute freebie when I was exploring SL8B sims. It's called 'Artists prim kit' and it presents prims we use every day in SL. The side of the box says:

Basic prim kit for artists in Second Life. Just add technique, emotion & originality.

I think it can serve as a really adorable piece of decoration for designers' workshops. Unfortunately I don't have that many spare prims on my parcel (yet I had to pick it up), but maybe you do :) Collect yours while SL8B exhibits are still there!



TP to freebie location: LEA Exhibit at SL8B

Coming very soon!

The Seasons Hunt Winter has started!

Yay, winter edition of The Seasons Hunt has just started! There are fantastic gifts from so many talented designers! You can refer to hunt blog for full list of participating stores.



My gift for the hunt is Sleeping Basket - always ready when you need a quick nap. And dreaming is so sweet when snow is falling outside the window!





The basket comes with sleeping animator, which will make your avatar 'sleep' - together with snoring and zZz... particles if needed. And I also included an AFK sign to be worn when seated at the basket, to make sure no one disturbs your dreams ;)

The basket is hidden in a cute snowman, somewhere inside the store (you don't need to search the garden or the porch, it's definitely inside). And here's a little clue for you: "It's going to be a warm afternoon!" :) Good luck and happy hunting! ^^

The Seasons Hunt has started!

It's here! ^^ The Seasons Hunt has started! There are amazing stores participating in this hunt so if you're looking for something fun to do, definitely give it a try! :)



My gift for the hunt is Autumn Skybox.



You know that moment in autumn when it stops raining, and the window is still covered with water drops, but the sun starts shining through... You sit by the window with a cup of raspberry tea, a book and a warm blanket. This is the moment I tried to capture when making Autumn Skybox. The beautiful, golden autumn.

The skybox is hidden in an orange leaf, somewhere inside the store (you don't need to search the garden or the porch, it's definitely inside). And here's a little clue for you "Where are all the magic sweets?" :) Good luck!

Newbie Style Challenge

Gogo posted Newbie Style Challenge on her blog the other day.
