It’s too quiet around here

Ack, I know!  I didn’t update the blog much this week.  I’ve been struggling with grid issues and things so much that I just didn’t get myself around to here till now.

Wednesday was a serious hump day.  It felt like it was never going to end and the problems just kept mounting.  SL was having fits.  Couldn’t build, open my notecards or scripts, could do anything really for quite awhile so I didn’t get to do the event that I had planned for this week.  However, since I am ever the optimist, I did do another secret sale/refund.  This time though you can get any TWO items in my store for 50% off. It’s like the other sale… purchase your items, send me a NC with the transaction history and I’ll send you a 50% refund of your purchase price. Update list members are given first notice about sales and discounts so if you want to be kept up to date you should click on the subscribe button at the landing zone at Roawenwood.

Fishing ChairYou can take advantage of this with any purchases made until Feb. 13th right before midnight and we switch over to Valentines day.  This way you can get a lil something for yourself, and something for a friend.

I’ve had quite a few releases that weren’t really announced on the blog, as well as a couple not even put through my update list.  I’ve been working on a fishing set series, with more to come.  The first was the Roawenwood Fishing Dinghy and then there was the Dockside Fishing Chair… this was a request actually from a customer.  She loved the boat but wanted something for her deck, and voila there you have it.  I already was going to do something similar but it was a good kick in the backside to get me moving.  More to come with this series very soon.Fishing Dinghy

I have a few little Valentines goodies at the landing zone.  Some adorable lil bunnies, candy, baskets, that kind of thing.  Last minute gift ideas.

I’m working on a new outfit, still trying to get the clothing layers the way I like and I’m trying to decide how flamboyant to make it.  It’s a little different than previous releases so I hope ya’ll like it when it comes out.

I have a few new ideas rolling around in my brain… but that’s normal.

Happy Friday everyone, I hope this weekend goes wonderfully for you!

Getting squeaky clean!

Chores & Work, Hump Day Happenins No Comments »

Today is Hump Day so I’m running a special this week.  Dance pits and everything in the large purple/blue tent is 50% off.  A good little bit of merchandise… the harem rug is a nice little deal if you’re interested marked down to 300 something lindens.

Soap SetWhat I’m REALLY excited about is the release of my latest work set.  I’ve been working pretty hard on it and trying to get a flavor of authenticity with it.  I know it isn’t going to be everyone’s cup of tea or fun idea but I created a soap making set.  This isn’t just a basic thing with a campfire with a couple molds or something.  This set in its entirety can take you through the different phases of the process of making soap the old fashioned way. From gathering the ashes so you can make the lye, to the creation of said lye…. then onto the cooking, mixing, and rendering of the soap.  After all of that there is also a piece for pouring the soap into the molds.

There’s four distinct pieces to the set each one with an embedded animation that is adjustable through menu… you know how much I try to avoid using poseballs if I can help it, helping create that immersive air for interactions.  I think this set could be used by a lot of different types.  Rustic and all, of course a slave chore but it could be used for those that have a business making soap or perfumes too.  I can see all sorts of opportunity when you take a little bit of an effort… then pour it into something else.

It can be purchased as a set or individually if you only want a piece or two.

To try them out, come down to Roawenwood at the five blades sim.

It’s a lil cold outside

Snowy weather has struck much of the grid from what I’ve seen and there’s a few out there who like to live amongst the northern climbs.  For you I have something a little different to set up and have some relaxing fun Ice Fishingin the snow.

Ice Fishing.

A small sculptured pond with room for up to four people to set around the edge at a time.  Two relaxing spots, and two fishing spots each with a different fishing animation.  Embedded and adjustable so there are no poseballs but no loss of functionality.

It is small enough and light enough in prims so that most can use it without any problems.  An included bucket of fish is separate so you can decide to use it or not.  Right click to sit, then click for the menu to choose which spot you want to sit on… click the stump to receive one of two fishing poles, one for one fishing anim…. the second for the other.

Have a good one.

A big thank you… and a bit of an update

Accessories, Chores & Work, Grid Hunts No Comments »

I know that yesterday was Thanksgiving day… and I was busy making turkey and the whole big feast thing for the family… but I wanted to give a quick thanks to all of you who wander by.  I’m very thankful to all of my customers, friends, and everyone in between, I hope I get that across in my dealings with you.  I know sometimes life happens and passes by so fast that it is easy to forget that.  Easy to forget to let people know how much you care about them, and how much you appreciate them even for all of the little things… It’s been great being able to be involved in Second Life, I have enjoyed it so much and hope that continues on into the new year.   Happy holidays!!

Wool - Carding PICI figured I’d toss out there a couple of news items for around the store.  There are three grid hunts that I am participating in coming up soon.

The Gorean Grid Wide Hunt kicks off this weekend.  My gift item is already out and has been for a couple of days because they were wanting it done before the Thanksgiving holiday.  It might be of interest to more than just Goreans, it is a little more generic than ones I’ve offered in hunts past.  A few pieces of furniture, low prim but nice.

I’m also doing a couple hunts in December, one starts the first… another starts on the fifth.  A few things to look forward to.

There are quite a few fans of work and chore related or role play related accessories, you guys are going to be interested in this one. Wool - Spinning Wheel PIC

On the palette there is three different sewing or knitting pillows, a knitting stool, spinning wheel, wool carding set, and a rocker.  The rocker has two versions… one with three singles sits just to relax, and the other has an added set of knitting and sewing animations along with sewing basket to accent.  I wanted to make sure that the ladies out there had the opportunity to have something a little more feminine for their parlor or home as well.  The knitting and sewing pillows are a bit distressed, nice colors, and all floor based.  Sitting on the pillow sewing and kneeling while knitting.  Comes with accessories.  The spinning wheel is lovingly crafted out of sculptured prims and textured really nicely.  Perfect for work, or display… it has multiple speeds for the wheel, click to toggle the wheel on or off, or to adjust the speed.  The stool comes seperately so you can adjust it as you need.

Cutting this post a little short but I do have more I’m going to write up tomorrow probably or very soon.

Rub a dub dub…. come take a look at my tub

Chores & Work, Furniture No Comments »

This past week I have had some really marvelous updates around the store.  A brand new set of bath tubs, a slipper tub with Slipper Tub in Bronze MLPsome really awesome texturing giving it a depth and look that I really adore.  It comes in four different metal tones…. bronze, black, pewter, or gold.  The display model is the bronzed version, which is I must say my favorite though I do like the other ones quite a bit too.  The tub has been given an MLP menu with FIVE different couples bathing animation sets.  That’s quite a bit… different scrubbing, caressing, and snuggly type bathing sets.  Then on top of that there is two different cuddles, and three single animations for the solo bather.  Quite a bit to choose from while you soak away your troubles.

Released with the tub I put together a couple pieces of furniture to accent them.  A large shelf unit, some greenery, a bureau accessorized with candles, folded towels and a few other pieces along with a plain bureau without the accessories.  The cabinets and things have working drawers/doors.  They’re custom textured and made of sculpted prims.

The Rustic Tub has been updated with the new animations and MLP menu as well.

I also placed out an Artists Set.  The set comes with an easel that has 21 different paintings to choose from for the canvas.  An embedded painting animation is included in the easel along with props so you can paint away.  The thing is sold as a set with a small table, painting accessories, and blank canvas.  Everything you need to set up a small studio.

Vulo Accessory Kit PIC v2Going a lil vulo crazy there is a large role play set over in the work area.  A whole lot of lil birds, roosts, three different egg gathering chores, fencing and accessories for anyone who wants to start a vulo farm or have a bit of fun with their role play.  It is a different twist on the normal chicken/vulo sets.  I think it turned out to be a fun little thing…. even have a vulo nested inside an overturned bucket.  *chuckles*

There is so much going on at Roawenwood… more and more things coming soon, and the winter set up is coming along very nicely.  If you’ve been by you’ll see random prims flying by and a lot of white snowy stuff starting to show up on rooftops and along the ground.Gathering Vulo Eggs v2

I’m half hating that the snow is coming…. it’s going to get a wee bit cold real soon! I love the ice skating though… at least winter doesn’t last as long at my place as it does in real life!!  LOL  enjoy and don’t forget Wed. isn’t that far away, keep your eyes peeled for my hump day fun stuff.
