Feteke 01

Empty

It’s easier to organize your stuff when the item count is low, so now that my inventory went abruptly down three thousand objects, I’ve taken the time to do some house cleaning. I’ve also got some of the losses back as I explained before, and bought a few new things too. Among them were the following products.

Feteke 02

The first is not one, but actually two Alder tree packs from Organica Specialty Trees that I either missed when they were first released or they were never announced. Alder #3 is a single mesh tree that is 12 LI out of the box, but since it’s quite large, you’d probably downsize it (as I did of course) and save some “prims”. Alder #4, on the other hand, is a 5 LI alder grove that is perfect to fill up any woodsy area. It also makes nice bushes at a mere 1 LI. Both of them come in green (for spring and summer), autumn, and winter, or you could go with a scripted version (also included), so you just click the tree to change the seasons. It’s kind of tricky to distinguish one from the other in these pics, but the single alder is in the “foreground” (almost in the center) of the picture above, while the alder grove is to the right.

Feteke 05

The second addition to my inventory is the Beach House Seagull, from The Black Forest (TBF). I’ve been using TBF’s lily pads for years now, so this store may not be new to the readers. The structure is somewhat charming, and may be used for multiple purposes. Notice it doesn’t have doors or windows, so be careful where you place it: Bad neighbor? Get a dog. Lots of mosquitoes? Buy some insect repellent. To see it inworld, follow this slurl.

Other items

  • Garden of DreamsBellis & Aman flowers (both available in various colors).
  • The Domineaux Effect: Picket fence (I bought this during the Home & Garden Expo 2013, and haven’t seen it since then). p.s. A day after posting this, the fence is now available in the marketplace.
  • World of WoodGarden bench.
  • DECO: Aquarius fountain (in the shadows, near the bench).
  • Studio Skye: Rocky outcrops.
  • Botanical: Sacred Lotus & Cattails.

Feteke 04

Since I didn’t have enough furniture to decorate the house, I just placed a few tables and shelves to pretend there’s something in there, so passersby don’t think it’s an abandoned lot or “under construction”, that’s all. For instance, this table is ILO’s Farmhouse table, and the shelves are the empty version of Second Spaces Messy bookshelf.

Feteke 06

I’m also using ililo’s (a.k.a. ILO) flowey curtains, to protect the central room from prying eyes. This is the only area of the house I’m currently occupying.

Other items

  • cheeky pea: Mainstream couch (you can pick among three different color textures by clicking the couch), Deconstructed coffee tables (I got them from The Home Show) & Ansel wall art frames (with pictures by yours truly, nothing remarkable).
  • Y’s House: Round Chair 02.
  • ZiganaRobot rug.
  • 22769-bauwerk: Fabric lamp (ceiling mounted one; I think I also got it from The Home Show event).

Feteke 11

This green orchid is a dollarbie beauty from Terrashop. Get it from the World of Wood inworld store (see slurl above).

Feteke 12

Finally, this is the normal version of Second Spaces’ Messy bookshelf mentioned before.

Chirihama Café

I’m afraid I may have ended up in somebody’s blog today. I went to take some pics of Y’s House’s Chirihama Cafe, and while taking the first shots, somebody TPed in. It was a lady, dressed in a long black and white gown. She has come to do some pictures herself, moving a black umbrella to the west then south, standing still between the flooded bushes, playing with the floating black bears… while I sat outside modifying the windlight settings. It was the same yesterday, and the day before, so that’s good because it means this coffeehouse attracts quite a bit of visitors.

That’s not a surprise of course, because it’s really good-looking, from the building itself (which is sold in Y’s House main shop) to every minute detail inside: the tarts, the fruits, the bread, even the marshmallows. What I didn’t understand are the pair of white llamas and the kangaroo smoking a cigarette while reading Le Petit Prince.

I finished my photo session (it might have taken me like an hour), and left, while the lady in the black and white dress kept swinging her body to the whistling sound of the camera as the shutter opened and closed to freeze the frame.

Visit the Chirihama Café in the sim of the same name.

Mystery Solved

Just a quick note to inform you that after a couple of days of notecard exchanges with yacchan Clip, owner of Y’s House, the “mystery” behind Sofa03 as reported here has been satisfactorily solved. The cause? Wrong model in vendor. So here is a picture of the correct Sofa03 (Denim/Indigo) after getting a replacement. Definitely more harmonious, less distracting look. Thanks to Ms. Clip for taking the time to check this out.
