Blogging Home & Decor as more than a prop in a fashion shoot is a whole different mindset from fashion blogging, and although it’s one I’ll admit to having some trouble adjusting to, I’m loving it! It’s a totally different type of challenge, to not just create beautiful room or outdoor sets, but to do so where they’ll fit into the right sized frame and where each item will show properly in the lighting while still achieving interesting shadows. There’s so much versatility and so many choices to make! All of which meant that it took lots of coffee but that I also had incredible fun building this section of a beautiful bedroom from items available at the Boardwalk Event, March 15th – April 15th, starting with the fantastic pool house itself and its incredibly beautiful interior. Unfortunately, now I have a new problem… I don’t want to leave!!!! Maybe I’ll just sit and drink my coffee for a while till it’s time to go to work… 😉
Fat Bird– Peregrine Pool House: An absolutely amazing item, the Peregrine Pool House is a tropical-themed little two-story pool house which comes complete with a tiny conservatory, exterior waterfall and balcony. You can see the beautiful wallpaper & some of the interior detailing in the photo which I’ve taken on the 2nd floor. An an option, a White version is also included which has tintable walls instead of the tropical wallpaper. Both houses are copy/mod, mesh, materials enabled & mod friendly. They are 60 prims, with an approximate footprint of 20×15. Also included with the two houses are the Tropical Bird Prints, a series of three connected wall art posters featuring tropical birds, which I’ve placed above the DayBed. They are mesh, materials enabled & mod friendly as well, with a land impact score of 3 prims. The ads below will provide additional views, & there’s a fullsize version of the Pool House up on the demo platform at the event, so you can walk through & see all the incredible detail for yourself.
Magnum Opus – The Linen Cabinet: For a simple concept, this is a surprisingly detailed piece. It includes two versions… one fully stocked, as I’ve used it (which has a land impact of 12 prims); one with an empty cabinet & all the individual items boxed separately so you can use & arrange as you see fit. Personally, I’ve never seen anything of this kind that’s quite so perfect… it’s neat, yet with the open door, hanging towel & then the other towel on the side of the hamper, it has just the right amount of mess to it. This is one item that has definitely found a permanent place in my home.
Gracefully Wicked – Daydreamer DayBed: Perfect for indoor or outdoor use, this DayBed can sit up to 3 avatars at the same time. It looks great, because it has 5 texture sets which you can either apply as a pre-set or select the frame & each set of pillows separately to coordinate with your decor, which is what I did here. But this DayBed goes way beyond just good looks, because it also includes 380 different quality animations –singles, including the coffee drinking one I’m using, 2p & 3p cuddles, & 2p & 3p adult. 100% mesh, copy/mod, with a land impact of 10.
