I still have so much to do and I am loving it! I just wanted to share with you how moving in is going. I know, I know my fireplace needs more decoration ;) A huge lovely mantel like that is crying out for accessories but as I said before this is a work in progress so the mantel will have to be patient. Unlike me!
The cupboard in the corner was actually meant to be a wardrobe and it had a coat hanger on the door and a towel hanging on the inside but the very lovely LISP make most of their stuff Modifiable so I was able to remove the hanger and towel so that the cupboard which I loved so much would not look out of place in a lounge area.
I so LOVE the clock I have above the fireplace, I actually think its one of my favourite things so far.
I modified the door way of the house I brought as I like it to always be open. I love random people dropping in, I think its all part of exploring Second Life. So I rarely have closed doors. Though the land I have at the moment is pretty much off the beaten track so I am not sure if I will have unexpected visitors.
The curtains you can see there I got from TATTY SOUP and I modified them so I could get a colour that would somewhat match the look I was trying for. If you have not been to TATTY SOUP then go there NOW! Run and TP as fast as you can! Lots of lovely, lovely trinkets and NONE of them priced stupidly expensive. Most deffinaley on my list of favourites.
I can't even begin to explain the difference in graphics and the things you can buy now compared to when I first joined at the end of 2006. I still think it a hoot that we can build and rez over 200m high! It brings home just how crowded the skies use to be lol.
I am though experiancing a little "discrimination" I guess because of my new avies age. I love her lots! Though not everyone else does...lol I have heard a few "newb" comments thrown my way which I just ignore. These people do not get that the genuine new people are very much whats needed in SL! We need them here to busy up the place, to buy your stuff and to rent your land! If we make them feel "stupid" for being new then I am sure they will soon be hitting that little red cross up in the corner of their screen! Lets not chase them away before they have a chance to get addicted huh?
On another note, I really do think I should get changed! I have worn the same clothes for about 3 days now! I stink!
