A New Direction For My Blog and Kaia Gaia

Well, I am not very good in keeping up with this blog because I live a pretty dull existence in SL but in my attempt to make furniture, I have learned alot...a whole lot!

I mentioned earlier that PIMP is closing down and I will be leaving there in about 30days. So I have been looking at land and shops and have discovered a lot of furniture stores out there that I have never even heard of. Some good and some bad and some in between. I have also developed an interest in textures. Texture makers in my holy opinion are some of the unsung heroes of SL! I mean you can't make stuff with out them and unless you are multi-talented we need them!

So the focus of my blog for the future will be on furniture, homes, texture shops, building gadgets etc., that I have discovered and will discover as I search the grid. I am hoping to update this at least once a week with something new.

The first furniture shop that I want to feature is KaiaGaia. I happened to stumble upon this place when I was looking at another very, very small furniture store.




The thing that struck me about the store was it's open, earthy feel and the consistency and look of the place. As a matter of fact, the theme of the store is Earth, Air, Fire and Water.



One of the shop's selling points are the free cushions that are available. There are no animations in them but they are cute!



Some of my favorite things at this shop are the kitchens. I think the cabinets and the colors and set ups are some of the cutest that I have seen. The sinks even have a cute hand washing feature on them!





I also saw these cute heart windchimes that look so real with their ceramic texture.



Last but not least my favorite thing from the shop and that I have in my own office is the cute Beechwood desk set with a typing animation.



The store is located at http://slurl.com/secondlife/Foale/194/25/31 and they even have their own blog at http://kaialife.blogspot.com/
