In The Garden Of The Imaginarium

Image PeepSideshow Darkward2 Comments

Books, birds and bell jars. Combined you have the beginnings of your own imaginarium. Plant them in a garden and they will thrive and grow.

The bell jar from [ keke ] is stunning and available this weekend at the main store for only 50L. Crafted with love and care by Kean Kelly, it will allow you to begin your garden.

From The Liaison Collaborative you will find plenty of “Literary-ly” themed trinkets and treasures, including the Imaginarium from 22769, the Paradise Lost statue from ~ by Nacht ~ and delightful gachas from [Black Tulip] and Serenity Style. For resting and reading and just looking adorable, you will find the Library pose set from [evoLove].

Surrounded by foraging doves, bountiful grasses and flowers with fall bursting in the distance, you have all the tools to create the perfect Garden of the Imaginarium.

Cherry Picking

PeepSideshow Darkward7 Comments

I really don’t like cherries. To eat, that is. But I am drawn to them as decoration; whether as a print on a dress or rings for my ears. Appropriately, the pair I am wearing is from (Yummy) and is a part of the final BishBox. And since I am showing off my bum, it is only appropriate I do it in the recent Tinker Set release from Blueberry. I seem to have a fruit-flavoured theme going here!

I hadn’t mentioned it before, but I recently switched mesh heads from Catwa Lona to May by .LeLutka.. I have always loved the HUD for LeLutka mesh heads, but I kind of stuck with Lona after it was released at Skin Fair. I finally got around to visiting the LeLutka main store and demoing her latest releases. I narrowed my choices to Greer and May, but something about this head just seemed right for me. I had a few appliers and skins for LeLutka, but I wanted something new. I tried several new appliers, but the one that really caught my eye was Jean by itGirls, currently available at Uber. One tip I want to pass along when trying a new skin designer is always try the head applier with the body demo, as well. I really didn’t think Jean would work for me before I matched it with the body applier.

That, my dear friends, gave my new look the cherry on top.

The Old Kissing Bridge

PeepSideshow Darkward4 Comments

The height of romance is a walk in the country, capped off by a kiss on a wooden bridge. The Old Kissing Bridge is the latest main store release from {what next}. It comes with three texture choices, plus lanterns and steps for decoration. There is even a sign that has three choices of text, plus a plain version in case you want to add your own. The bridge rests on stone piers that can be sunk into the ground or left exposed. On my land, it worked best to sink them, so they aren’t visible, but the texturing is lovely.

There are no poses included, but that just means you can choose your own. You can stroll, kiss or cuddle to suit your mood.

It is a truly stunning addition to your landscape, capped off with a kiss.
