Sky Dome – Multi-Textures Sky & Ground
Some interest was shown in the reBourne skybox I mentioned the other day. Since their discount price of $6,250 is still pretty steep for many of us, I thought I’d share a less expensive option from The Dreamer Creations. It’s a Sky Dome 100 x 100 (so yes, you do need to have some space [...]
reBourne Multi-Scene Skybox
If you want a home in the sky but aren’t sure what environment you’d like with it, reBourne has released a multi-scene skybox. It contains 111 backgrounds to choose from. It does come with a building but that’s really just a viewing area rather than a home. If you prefer, you can remove that and [...]
In Search of a Home
Hard to believe that I have an entire town in Second Life but no real “home” in the residential sense. Not long ago I was building on one — even had it looking cool enough to invite Paypabak Writer over to watch telly with me. But then disaster struck. Much of the house got ruined [...]
Brighton Rock Set 10L
Back in April 2011 I wrote about a furniture set by Lisp Bazaar called Brighton Rock. Even though the prim count is higher than what I like, I paid full price for it when it came out. It’s not often one finds good looking retro mod furniture, and named after Brighton too! Well, I’m happy [...]
Mood To Remodel
Yesterday I was in a mood to remodel. I try not to make drastic changes in Moonletters town, but now and then I like to see something different. Well, I found something I liked at Inverse. It’s a fully furnished ocean cottage called Malibu. I love nautical things, paintings of ships, etc, so this build [...]
Inverse
I’ve been meaning to mention Novocaine Islay’s store Inverse for ages now. I’ve held off because I wanted to give a bit of space to talk about it, but rather than writing loads I think I’ll just give it a plug and let you see it for yourself. Inverse has many things for sale within [...]
Bi-Annual Cart Sale
Huge cart sale. 85 Designers selling items of all kinds at 10L or less on the street. Need I say more? On the Web: Full list of Designers Cart Sale inworld: The Wash
Arctic Greenhouse
I have a big love for flowers, but am choosy about them in SL. I dislike the ones that look like cardboard, and avoid areas with ugly plants for much the same reason I avoid clubs with bad music. Good news. I found a lovely place called Arctic Greenhouse where no cardboard plants could be [...]
United InshCon
United Inshcon Mainstore has loads of things, particularly medieval style prefabs and outdoor decorative stuff. They also have a discount area where you can find freebies, and great looking items as low as 25L. I got a lovely house, a horse, a cat with a fish in his mouth . . . . Their non-discount [...]
JTL Designs and the Depart. of Gov. Cheese
I’d like to give a shout out to creator Johnnytreadlightly Nightfire from JTL Designs and the Depart. of Gov. Cheese. I’ve liked his buildings for a while now, having bought the stone chapel from him as well as a Victorian schoolhouse at one time. The sculpted items from the schoolhouse were particularly impressive and low [...]
Penny Lane Apartments
I’m remodelling in Moonletters Town so pardon the mess. One thing I’ve added is Penny Lane Apartments for people who would like more prims and space than what’s on offer at Moonletters Motel. Regular apartments are 100 prims for 200L per week, while the penthouse is 200 prims for 400L per week. These are meant [...]
A Thought About Builders
I’m amazed at the artistic, creative people I come across in Second Life. No two are exactly the same. My friends Karma Avedon and Serendipidy Haven are both good at making park areas with woods and a lovely nature setting. And yet each have their own style, and are certainly not limited to those things. [...]
Bargain Basement
If you like Victorian, rustic, or western furniture and decor, check out Bargain Basement at Tombstone. They have great looking stuff in there, and everything is under 50 lindens. I bought a load of things, from a realistic looking elf statue to a 1 prim chair that looks fab. Visit Inworld: Bargain Basement
Bye Bye Cardboard Plants
Ugly plants and trees. You see them at even at the nicest of sims, and put out by people who normally have excellent taste in decor. It’s not that the species of plants are ugly, it’s that the things just do not look like plants at all. Ok, they do look pretty if you view [...]
Avedon Park
Photo by Karma Avedon One of my best buddies, Karma Avedon, is the proud co-owner of Avedon Park along with Aura Firehawk, another sweet lady who graciously gave me a tour. These two have made the place look lovely and have opened it to the public. At the moment not many people are using Avedon [...]
Primpossible Sofa and Chairs
For those of you who, like me, are impressed with Ample Clarity’s one prim creations, you may be interested to know that Ample now has a sofa and two chairs for sale. Each are just one prim and contain 108 textures to choose from, and 150+ animations. You can even add custom textures. I like [...]
Free Chairs From Diavolo Creations
My neighbour IsisRea Diavolo makes some really great grunge furniture and buildings. Her stuff is impressive, and she hardly charges anything for it. IsisRea’s latest group gift is a collection of grunge chairs, so if you need some low prim seating go grab them! She also has a terrific looking television you can make your [...]
No More Land Available
BY SHAUNA SKYE Hi gang. I put the word out about a couple of parcels of land opening up at Penny Lane, something that rarely happens, and not long after I did they were purchased. Thanks to those of you who showed interest, but there’s no more available. I still have some cheap rooms for [...]
Land at Penny Lane
Hi gang. I have decided to downsize Moonletters town. The town took up most of the Penny Lane sim, and while I’ve loved having it like this for nearly two years, it makes more financial sense to reduce the size and keep just the areas we spend the most time in like the harbour, The [...]
Wunderbar
BY SHAUNA SKYE One thing I love is old style homes and antiques, and this is why I’m a big fan of Wunderbar owned by creator Poppet McGimsie. I’ve been visiting this store for years now because you can find Victorian, Edwardian, Rustic and French styles among others. The homes are lovely, and range from [...]
Oak Gazebo For 10L
BY EDITOR SHAUNA SKYE Kidd Grass Garden has loads of nice stuff for landscaping, from lovely grass, trees, and flowers, to the coolest water sprinkler. I’d like to draw your attention to something else though: the Oak Gazebo! Not only does it look great, and have ten sit animations, but it’s a mere 10L. [...]
One Prim Bedroom Set at Moonletters
BY EDITOR SHAUNA SKYE Hi gang. I wrote about the amazing one prim piano recently. Well, you may be interested to know that the creator, Ample Clarity, has put his new one prim bedroom set on display in Moonletters town. He’s rented a room next to Jellie’s Gestures at the motel, and has a bed there [...]
60L Retro Modern
BY EDITOR SHAUNA SKYE It’s that time again. My store Subculture participates in 60L weekend sales, and the special item I’m offering is the 60′s Art Dress, featured in the picture on the right (at least today). Another 60L item you’ll find today are full permission sculpt maps for 1 prim shelves. These are on [...]
Water Sprinkler
BY EDITOR SHAUNA SKYE I found something cool while exploring around; a water sprinkler! It’s only two prims, and the water shooting out looks very realistic. I was so impressed I checked the creator of the object, doP Kidd, and that led me to the inworld store. I was thrilled to see this sprinkler was [...]
Ample Clarity’s Amazing One Prim Livingroom
BY EDITOR SHAUNA SKYE Not long ago I wrote about PrimPossible owner Ample Clarity’s one prim piano. The piano was impressive, but Ample has outdone himself with his recent creation. He’s made a full livingroom set that’s just one prim. No, not one prim per piece, but one for all of it put together. You [...]
PopArt Furniture
BY EDITOR SHAUNA SKYE Reporter Madame1111 Quintessa sent me the landmark to an awesome find: Popart Furniture. This place is filled with tons of nice furniture, art, etc. Not only does it look good, but it has menu based seating, and much is fashionably low prim too. Best of all? Nearly everything in the store [...]
Urban District For Sale
BY EDITOR SHAUNA SKYE Isis Diavolo, the lady who runs the ghetto section of Penny Lane, has been hard at work making a grungy urban district to sell in her store. While Isis was building it she teleported me up to have a peek, and since I was so impressed she sent me a copy [...]
A Different Way of Selling
BY WRITER LACEWING MESMERISER A while back I wrote a piece called More Hair! I didn’t, and still don’t want to, name the sim that prompted the feelings. Although it was one that pushed me to the point of writing, there were plenty more like it. I thought it time to point out an example [...]
Bohemian Dream Home
BY EDITOR SHAUNA SKYE Moonletters reporter Madame1111 Quintessa recently showed me a place with some prefab homes for sale. One home in particular, Bohemian Dream, has a lot of beauty to it. It’s more Madame’s style than mine, and being in it makes me think of her (I’m more into urban victorian or steampunk), but [...]
Magi Take Shop
BY EDITOR SHAUNA SKYE My friend Karma Avedon gave me a landmark to Magi Take Shop. She knew it was my kind of place. 1. Great quality. 2. Created by Japanese. 3. So inexpensive to be almost free. They have two floors of nice looking stuff for men, women, and unisex. Jackets, overalls, shoes, jeans [...]
