BLACK FRIDAY SALE!!!

...

Where I have been...

Well, it has been a semi eventful week or partial week.  My car and I decided that it would be a brilliant idea to make contact with a drunk driver.  So, I have once again been in the hospital.  I am suffering with a glorious punctured lung (in my opinion the worst of the injuries), a broken arm - again, and a few broken ribs.  I also am a glorious coloring book of bruises.  I just got out today and a few days ago I asked my beloved boyfriend to access my email account to send out messages.  I hope that everyone out...

MadPea - The Case for Praying Mary Hunt - and my gift

I was very excited to have been accepted along with fourteen other designers to participate in the MadPea - The Case of Praying Mary hunt. The tale behind the hunt is as follows : Widow Millar was nicknamed 'Praying Mary' due to gruesome killings of three of her husbands and praying next to their dead bodies. Mary denied everything and claimed it was all a misunderstanding. Her motives were never understood. Once Mary was caught during...

Another reason for me to go ballistic

I have been hosting the BoobieThon sales event in front of my store for the last four days now.  Everything has been going great and I have been very happy and proud to be the one setting it up.  However today, someone decided to well really tick me off and I told them I would put them on blast for their stunt.  Here is the letter that I wrote to them so that you can see the exact reason why I have done that. Thank you for attending Boobiethon 2012, a charity event raising money for the fight against breast cancer.  As I was...

I almost typed - Oops I did it again... But I stopped myself.

I just finished another part of the Odette Library Collection.  What every good library needs - bookcases.  Now, I can texture most things in a matter of moments.  I can decorate a home in an hour.  For some unknown reason it took me almost 10 hours to put books in a bookcase.  Who takes 10 flipping hours to figure out the layout of a bookcase... apparently I do.  But all that - um, does this look better here or here...

It's Arrived! Finally finished my Odette Desk Set

When I first started to build in Second Life - what seems like eons ago.  I started by building furniture.  But for various reasons I stopped.  When I began Sanctuaire - I had a sinking feeling that I would fall back into making furnishings for the home.  Probably because I had a billion and one ideas on how to finish my builds. So, I did it.  I created a desk set that fit my personality.  I named it Odette - and soon...

New Build - Catskill Cottage

I normally build a house in under a week.  Then take two days arguing with myself about how to do the pictures - because pictures are sooooo not my thing.  This time however the build took eons for me - almost two weeks.  Granted a lot of stuff has been going on.  I have been in my first ever hunt and it is going really well.  I am getting a lot of positive responses back and learning that I am not falling flat on my kiester....

Sanctuaire introduces its first home good - a radio

I promised that I was going to start a homegoods line and my first venture into this is my antique radio.  It is 100 percent mesh and available in 10 wood tones and colors. You can add or access over 100 stations with it and it works on group owned land as well. I hope you like them! - Scout ...

Due to people making comments about doors... My diatribe.

Hello! As most are well aware - I love mesh.  I love almost everything about mesh except for one or two things.  Due to various questions that I have been asked about the doors - I am writing this to make your life easier - and save my own sanity - once again. First, I don't link doors to the builds.  Why?  Well, cause I love details.  My doors all have knobs or hinges and sometimes both.  Like sculpt, most of the handles/knobs or hinges are not built into the mesh.  For this reason, like with sculpt,  if...

Second Location in New Toulouse Algiers

It has been a busy week.  Mostly of my own creating.  I decided to open another location for sanctuaire.  After very little thought and preparation I decided to get a plot next to Noctis in New Toulouse Algiers.  First reason is that I love Yelena and I enjoy any chance I can get to wander over to her store and get something.  Second reason is that I love the look of the sim.  It is semi swampy and laid back...

First House in the Old South / Louisiana Series - Fais Do-Do Shotgun

 Ok, I admit it I have been watching a lot of True Blood.  But this house has nothing to do with the show.  This is the beginning of my ode to New Orleans and the Old South.  My grandmother was from New Orleans and she used to tell me the tales of it as a little kid while eating gumbo out of a bowl on her lap. So in honor of everything I love about Louisiana, I have decided to start building a few houses in a series that are...
