I said I’d post some pictures of the Elefantu Yoga Studio that I bought (400 Linden) at the Back to Black event, and here they are. The set is over 400 prims, so I don’t think I’ll be keeping it out permanently. However it has wonderful detail (everything you see is included), and the yoga mats are not linked to the main build, so could be used separately. They have several animations in them. The room is in a skyglobe, with views out on all sides.
I’ve got a number of book props, but these ones from Lark are really detailed and attractive. You get all three books in one pack (copiable), on offer this weekend as part of Spruce up Your Space.
The table and teaset are a past hunt gift from RnB that I blogged a while back.
You may have heard of the Back to Black event, raising awareness about mental health. Most of the items are fashion, but there are a few house and home things on sale too. The 4 musical pictures are from Netherworld and the breakfast set is from Baffle! (chairs, table and breakfast setting). I also bought a complete yoga studio (!) but I haven’t rezzed that yet (I will post pictures when I do) … additionally there is a nice house on sale from Designer Prims.
Work has been mad over the last couple of weeks, so not so much time for blogging. However, I saw these 3 hunt sets in a new-to-me shop Forever Yours. If “adult poses” are your thing, the two love rugs are attractively done (and also contain tamer cuddle poses). Seen above is the Glamor Hunt prize (10 Linden for love rug, chaise (the chaise just has one normal sitting pose in it) and fireplace) and the Be Loved Hunt prize (free): a table for two with chairs, flowers and candles, plus some valentine bags and some balloons. This second hunt is only on for a few more days, and there is a hint giver and examples of the items you are hunting for, by the shop entrance. As I was in a hurry I just hauled the items out and snapped them, so no styling has taken place (the banner, park bench and trees are nothing to do with the prizes!).
Below you see the (free) prize in the Love me or not hunt: the Hideaway. This is about 60 prims in total, all linked together, including a chair and a “love rug”. I wasn’t so keen on some of the poses in the chair – seemed to be “violence against women” (or against men, if you swapped pose balls). The fur rug is pretty, though. The Forever Yours shop is fairly small, so finding the items is not a huge trial.
Another quick post: the Drowsy sim just reopened, although I think it may only be open for a month before closing finally. It is a wonderful sim to explore (which is just as well as there is no flying and there seems to be a fixed landing point). A couple of the buildings that were there before (including the old library) are now ruined, with strange creatures lurking round. There are fascinating new buildings for Kurotsubaki and BP (Bettiepage Voyager). Above you see part of the food and kitchenware display in BP. Below are what i think are new items for BP: a variety of detailed boxes.
Kurotsubaki mostly sells clothes, but there are a number of unique furnishing items, including the sofa, the rabbit chair and the animal bookshelves, shown below in the shop.
There are some freebies, two of which you get from the scene below, which is in one of the ruined houses (you get a wearable bear and cage, see me wearing them here)
This is a quick post for some items that shouldn’t really still be out there, and I only just found them. Evie’s closet had a “Christmas Giving Circle” and when I visited just now the items were all still out under a Christmas tree. Some items are rather seasonal, but others could be useful at any time (e.g. the chocolate pot on the table, which gives cups of chocolate, is separate; and there is a version of the bed without the pine and mistletoe decoration). They are in present boxes under the tree, all zero Linden. They are: Mistletoe bed from Mole’s End (Evie’s furnishing line); Chocolate table & chairs, and a fireplace (with decor including a copy of “A Christmas Carol”) from The Looking Glass; Wall art (pretty circular picture which twinkles) from Balderdash; Wreath from Patron (lights flash on and off: there is also a hot chocolate tureen in the gift).

Just a super-quick post this morning to show you a fantastic sink/vanity for SUYS this weekend, from Art Dummy. This is a such a terrific piece just to look at — but it also is full of features, including color change mirror frame and towels, and water that actually runs. SUYS ends at midnight tonight, so if this is something you have to have … be sure to pick it up today.
I’m also showing here one of the wood chairs available at the new event, Atelier Kreslo. Not only is the venue beautifully done and fun to visit — but you can pick up a set of beautifully crafted chairs that are a collaboration of two designers. These chairs will be available until Feb. 13th, and won’t be sold again after that! So put it on your list. The Atelier Kreslo venue also features the artwork of the talented and generous Lindini2 Lane — these pieces are available to you completely free of charge — thank you, Lindini
