HAPPY NEW YEAR! Mini Pavillion and Sitting Area

Hi Everyone and a belated Happy New Year to you and yours! Yes, I know I've promised to blog more often, but I've been busy, I swear! Okay, THAT and I've been hitting the ETD hair sale and gearing up for the Last Call Sale later on this week ... not to mention I've been accepted into Ewing Fashion Agency Model Training Program (squee!).

Anyways, I've also been creating some pretty neat things on the side ... and here are a few ...

First off, I've always LOVED some of the Persian/Mid-East textures that I see in builds in SL ... I finally decided to run on over to Textures R Us and buy a set and get to work on what I call a "mini" Persian Pavillion:
It contains a sculpy fountain and 3 "pools" and has running walls of water falling at all sides (except for a section on the back, which gives it an "open" look, but still gives you some privacy). Just add in your favorite poses, add in some cushions / firepit, potted plants or other furniture and you're good to go! OR, add in some couple dance balls and you can have a romantic little dance retreat! If you look, you can see me inside the pavillion ... just to give you an idea of the size! I had alot of fun texturing this, come on by the Skyridge location and check it out before you buy! I think you'll really like the textures! I may even do a bigger version of this in the future with a couple more goodies for you to enjoy in your garden!

Up next is a piece inspired by garden areas that aren't that large, low on prims, but with privacy in mind ... all the while you have the ability to fill up with pretty plants ( used the Lindens low prim ferns as examples), have a soothing fountain, a pretty peacock stained glass window and a seating area!
Add in your favorite poses and maybe some patio lights and you're set! Don't like the texture? No problem! this item is modifiable, so just retexture it to match your build!
Remember, I've got a ton of free plants and flowers at my Skyridge shop (that I collected from my wanderings around SL), so pick up a few!
That's it for now ... I've got to run off to begin my first day of fashion model training (still squealing with delight over that). But when I get a chance, I'll start posting up pics of some of the other little things I've been creating on and off since I last blogged.
Until then, have a good one!
