A Winter’s Nap

1-a-winters-nap-sm

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!

Floating On A Cloud

1 Sway's Cloud Nine Heaven 1

Sway Dench calls this creation “Cloud 9.” I call it a great way to kill an afternoon. Floating around on a puffy, white, star-studded cloud while contemplating all of the things that I should be doing…but I’m not.

This is Sway’s first offering for The Challenge. There is another version available, starring hearts. I also noticed that she has coordinating shelves for Fifty Linden Friday. That is why I am interrupting my musing – to give you at least a chance to grab the matching accessories at a bargain.

I’m not going to bother with credits for my outfit; they’re exactly the same as my previous post. See? I was enjoying my cumulus reverie so much I couldn’t even be bothered to change 😉

Heaven Is A Place On Earth

1 Cleo Design Heaven

Ooh heaven is a place on earth
They say in heaven love comes first
We’ll make heaven a place on earth
Ooh heaven is a place on earth

~ From “Heaven Is A Place On Earth” recorded by Belinda Carlisle

Who isn’t looking for a little piece of heaven? I don’t think there are many people who aren’t. This month, The Challenge brings you Heaven, right into your home. There are quite a lot of heaven-inspired lovelies just waiting for you, starting today, for this round.

The heavenly living room set above from Cleo Design gives you everything you need to make heaven your home-away-from-home, including your choice of two views you can add behind the drapes (in case your window looks out on a neighbour whose idea of decorating is Early Second Life Bling or you are creating the illusion of a window out of a solid wall, like I did). Puffy cloud lamps, a soft, cushiony sofa with an adorable pillow and singles & couples poses, a pouf, the curtains and a romantic vase with roses are all part of this little piece of heaven.

1 Kuro Heaven

But in case you need a little more, Kuro has this sweet hanging ladder with dimmable stars, comfy cushions and even a cup of tea to inspire your heavenly dreams. Don’t let this simple pile of pillows fool you; it has three texture choices and about a kazillion poses included (singles and cuddles). Tuck up in a cozy corner and you can climb your way to the stars.

I will be bringing you more heaven-inspired goodies from The Challenge in the coming days…as soon as I manage to pull myself up off the floor and finish some more pictures. In the meantime, you can visit The Challenge blog to see more delightful designs for this round.

Could someone get me a fresh cup of tea? I’m afraid this one has gone cold. Black with honey, please 🙂
