I never can say enough wonderful things about anything that comes from [ keke ]. Her Peace Set for Uber now ranks right up there with my favourites. Perfectly detailed, the textures are so realistic you will want to touch them. The embroidery on the tablecloth that reads, “Peace is possible” actually looks like embroidery stitches! Both of my grandmothers embroidered, so I know that stitching well 🙂

The credits for this post were easy; everything comes from [ keke ].

Warm At Twilight

1-warm-at-twilight-sm

Usually when I am doing a Home & Garden post, I build a set, shoot the photos and immediately take everything down. It’s not that I don’t like the looks I create; rather, I am generally just trying to be tidy and clear the space for the next go around. This time, however, while collecting the credits, I plopped down on the sofa with a sigh. I’m not sure exactly why I did it; it might be because the sofa from .. Warm Animations .. for Shiny Shabby looked so inviting. Perhaps it was because this room has a different feel than most of my settings (slightly more masculine, don’t you think?) Or possible it was because it was a chilly day for spring and the sun had just set in my real world and I simply wanted a comfortable spot to rest my bones.

Whatever the reason, I sat back and relaxed, quiet at home, warm at twilight.

Imagine a place where bunnies sit, foxes pose and kitty cats pounce. Where secret white flowers glitter and shine. Where twinkling lights peek through the grass and a cage becomes a resting place.

This is the event where you pay a fee and wander through the forest to collect all of the beautiful offerings from some of the best designers on the grid. That’s right – you get them all.
