Bunnies, Blooms and Baths

PeepSideshow Darkward5 Comments

It is a Home & Garden extravaganza at my place right now. [ keke ] has been going wild with main store releases, including the adorable clipped sketches, refurbished spring drawers (available in three colours) and the glass lamps shown in my photo. In the rush to hit the big events on the grid, don’t forget the pleasure of browsing the home shops of some of your favourite designers. It is a much more relaxed way to shop, with less lag and no pressure to get in and out.

That being said, Bloom is off and running and {what next} has plenty of blooms to offer with their potted tulips, tulip wheelbarrow and pretty watering cans to keep those flowers fresh. They work perfectly together, so grab all the things.

The bathtub is from a larger set from Artis. If you read my blog regularly you can probably tell that I have fallen in love with this posemaker. This set is available at Pose Fair 2017. Do check it out.

And finally, I have fallen in love with the bunnies from JIAN at Collabor88. While they don’t come with Easter eggs, they are just perfect.

I can think of no better way to relax, reflect and revive than with bunnies, blooms and baths.

Of Puppies, Poufs and Pom-Poms

A bit of a romantic vintage look today, thanks to the beautiful creations from 22769 ~ [bauwerk], Apple Fall, {what next}, [ keke ] and more. There are several romance-themed events going on this month, and The Liaison Collaborative is a standout. But don’t forget about the joy of wandering into a main store to see the latest releases and perhaps finding a vintage gem. [ keke ] has a few recent main store releases, along with classics you may have missed before. My photo shows several of these hidden treasures; you will just have to visit to get them for yourself.

I found myself relaxing in this vintage room, dreaming romantic dreams…filled with puppies, poufs and pom-poms.

A Winter’s Nap

Whether he climbed off the sled or just chose to ignore its pillows, this little fox found a winter oasis to take his nap.

The sled is from Sway’s for the January round of The Liaison Collaborative. There are two versions – the neutrals style I am showing and a muted version, as well. Each sled has three different colours of pillows through texture change. It is a lovely addition to a winter scene.

The screens are from [ keke ] in the January Deco(c)rate. They come as individual items, but there is also a linked example, which I chose to use for my photo. They are typically [ keke ]: pretty, detailed and delicate. The soft blue goes perfectly with the Frozen Roses and LightFrame from Ariskea, also included in this month’s Deco(c)rate. The distant trees are from Little Branch for TLC.

Put off your winter’s nap; there is shopping to be done!
