Ambiance Hacienda Sets

Ambiance has come out with three new releases called Hacienda. All three sets are packed with furniture, animations and cute little accessories to complete your rooms.

First up and my favorite set out of the three is the living room. Wicker furniture is a favorite of mine in RL and this set is really well done. The seating has a ton of poses in it and the fireplace, lights and candles all have on/off options. You get everything that you see here which is great for filling up that living room space!

The small pillows and the rug are texture changing in this set so you have a few color options to play with.

Check out the couch! It is large and roomy for a lot of friends and I love the coffee and cheese cake accessories..details, details!

Next up is the dining room set and it includes everything that is shown. The rug and place mats are the texture changing items here. I really like the place setting details and the dining room chairs have eating animations included, which are always cute.

This is a nice set to fill up a dining room space with.

Last but not least is the bedroom set and all the furniture in this set is texture changing! I selected the plum texture since purple is my favorite color. Once again, you get everything that is shown! I like that it comes with a standing mirror and the pitcher and basket of towels are also nice accessories.

I would have liked to have seen a texture changing rug come with this set because I think rugs help tie a room together. Also, I would have liked to have seen some color changing options for the pot. Those are just personal preferences and by no means are they deal breakers for me.

If you would like to demo these sets and play with the texture changing options and ALL the animations, then get on over to Ambiance to check these sets out and all the other great furniture and accessories that they have!

Apple Pie Picnic Table from Sway's!

Sway Dench just makes the cutest things ever! I wanted to put a picnic table out on my land so I went on a search and found the perfect one at Sway's. What could be better on a beautiful summer day but delicious apple pie and lemonade?

The picnic table set comes with the texture changing tablecloth and pillows that are attached, the glasses, plates with pie and forks and texture changing napkins. Perfect for having friends over for a snack!

Sway pays attention to the details! Check out the fruit slices on the glasses, the ice cubes and even the brown crust on the pie! All yummy!

Each pillow has two poses each and changes colors when you change the tablecloth color. I picked purple because that is my favorite color but there are eight colors to choose from.

If you have never been to Sway's I would recommend you get down there to see all the wonderful, high quality home and garden items that she has! She also makes clothes, accessories, poses and the cutest little bears. I am telling you...there is nothing this lady can't do!

MMMM Berries!

Berries Inc. is having a 50% off sale until July 30th! You can get this cute pink dress with a colorful and unique picture on it that is perfect for wearing at the beach. It has the option to show the bikini under it or without it.

There are several other dresses just like this in various colors and with summery, beachy type of pictures so get down there and check out the sale!

Lindini2 Lane Art Show

A friend of mine that I met through flickr, Lindini2 Lane, is showing her RL sketches in an SL gallery. You may have seen some of her art on various home and garden posts on the SL feeds.

Come check out her show at the Urban ARTs Gallery and pick up some great, free artwork and frames!

Zizzy Umaga's Art Show

A very talented artist whose work that I found through flickr is having an art showing in Second Life. Her name is Zizzy Umaga and she has some great pieces of artwork that you should go and purchase to add to your collection!

She has soooo many amazing pieces that it is hard for me to pick just one that is my favorite!

You can see her work at the LX Gallery or check out her flickr photostream.

Jordan Giant's min.poegin - skybox / house

The lovely and talented Jordan Giant has released a new beautiful skybox/house called the min.poegin that was inspired by her love of music and Iceland and it is stunning! The textures and light give this skybox a warm and homey feeling and isn't that what we all want in our SL home?

The lonesome.bird vase is the freebie that Jordan has released to go with her new skybox build. If you touch the glass bottles, they will light up and if you touch the birdie he will sing! Too cute!

If you would like to see more pictures of this skybox, check it out on SLexchange or visit nordari. to check out the demo.

One last thing..check out Jordan's flickr group for nordari here and post some of your lovely pics!

note: all pictures in the post are Jordan's and not my own.

Elymode Dulce and Dutch Touch Sale!

Elymode has come out with some cute, colorful and flirty new tanks, skirts and tops called Dulce which are as yummy as they sound. As typical of Elymode, the texturing is gorgeous and there are so many colors, layering options and mixing and matching that you can do with these separates that it is mind boggling.

I'm showing the Dulce tank and skirt in Lemon and Berry. You get two skirt options. One short and sexy and the other one shorty, sexy but also fluffy and flirty. The belt on the second skirt option is also color change.

In case you have not heard, Dutch Touch is having a sale on her River II skins! All single skins are 50% off and then she is retiring them! Just a note, there is a smudge under my eye on my facial close up. That is due to my lack of photo taking skills and not on the skin itself.

Alright, quit reading and hurry your butt to Elymode and Dutch Touch to do some serious shopping this Sunday!
