I would have bought it right away but that is just atrocious. I might still buy it and rip the animations out of one of Maya's beds but still, for that price the least they could do is have like 5 single animations for those of us that have no one to cuddle with.

Something I often do is slightly shrink a bed to save a few LI.  Most SL beds are bigger than they need to be, and I rarely even need to adjust any of the poses.  Some scale better than others, so your mileage may vary.

I don't have a large avi and I slightly shrink everything almost

Have there been any new small kitchens released in the past year till now? I have a very small space that I want to use as a kitchen and while I do have one that fits it just doesn't feel *right*. I have the usual suspects like vespertine, dust bunny, what next, DAD and so on but was wondering if perhaps there's anything I've overlooked or has been newly released. Thank you in advance!

I've just started looking for a small kitchen too and these two caught my eye (if you're still looking!):

And this one from Atrium - it's not new, but new to me (kitchen set L$280 inworld. Lights and the bar/stool set are sold separately)

[Leora Greenwood]

L$60 at Muniick http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Port Lux/150/57/3400  A bit higher in LI than I like, table is 6 LI, most other pieces around 3 LI each.  The set as rezzed out here is 38 LI but very attractive and with texture change options.

[Eddy Vortex]

$75L for the full fatpack of the Delhi set, including beds, at Zerkalo.

http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Vagrant and Zerkalo/215/135/21

 

Textures are nice, but the LI though...  (Bed is 17 LI and curtains are 10 LI) >_<

[Eddy Vortex]

Two weekend offers at Botanical.  Waterlily clusters for $75L, and Lotus Plants for $60L.

[Tary Allen]

Got the Waterlily, I'm so glad Botanical is participating in a weekend sale. I have 5 rezzed, only left 4 flowers, deleted scripts and linked and it is at 5 LI

 

 

[EmmaAsht0n]

This weekend only (i.e March 26-27). L$60.

9 Li. Several single animations for both women and men as well as couple animations. The adult version is on sale here: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Dreamworld Reef/111/18/28

@Trinity1776 I guess that's another bed to add to your list 😁

[EmmaAsht0n]

btw Bazar is selling this wall and floor tile set at Uber for only L$59. Each piece is 1 Li. If you wanna see their real size, go to the demo area as the pieces shown in the main exhibition area have been scaled down.

[Frigga Freidman]

There's lots of stuff on sale now for fantasy/forest fans at Love Superstore. The LODs by-the-numbers may not be great, but those tree stumps with fairies look pretty good to me at a reasonable distance. 

[Frigga Freidman]

Trees are also on sale at Dysfunctionality. The Whispy [sic] Twinkle Trees (low LI and really good LODs) have lots of options, including  foliage and bark color, movement/no movement, twinkle/no twinkle. They blend in well with the Newbrooke trees. Just $50. 

[Frigga Freidman]

More plants - TM Creations has another of their plant arrangements on sale for only $60. Yes, as shown this is 16 LI, but you can unlink and use the individual bits as you wish. Very good value! (I've used some of TM's plants from other arrangements at my WIP Newbrook, mixed in with climbing spiraea from Heart.)  Edit: Actually this week’s sale item has far more LI than others I’ve bought. This one is only 6 LI, and was the source for most of the plants shown in my containers - it’s No Copy, but for that price it’s worth buying two if you want to use the linked version as well: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/M13-Tropical-Garden-Plants-Flowers-Bush-Rocks-Arrangement-MT/10048585

I am not sure if it is "me", but the lines in the tiles are a bit strange. I have on LOD 4, so it should not be a problem. Oh well. But this is a good option for those who can't find a good texture or who find Blender too challenging.

To save Li did I use 2 floor plates on one wall, and used a single plain prim on the floor. It is always the best way to save li, a single prim. I don't think the short wall behind the bath tub is included with the tiles, and that is too bad.

By using 2 floor tiles on one wall, the two walls and floor is 6 li.

The rest of the bathroom is 22 li, all as shown is 28 li.

The wall color must you put in the house control panel under "My colors" - "New color" - "Type RGB" and has RGB numbers 250,240,230.

The floor is a https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/10-Marble-Floor-Tile-Textures-Full-Perm-DT-Essential-Collection/3649912

I am going to take this down and put up my first bathroom. I was just curious to see this.

Edit: The reason I set up this, is to show an easy way to cover two windows. I find 3 big windows in a bathroom hard to work with.

The even more Li-saving and economic way is to use selfmade prims on the walls, of course. 2 prims with the wall texture and tinted the same color. Impossible to see it is not default walls. Unless you have not covered where the trimming is missing for the window that reach the floor. and 2 prims linked and set to convex hull is only 1 li.

This is a great idea!!

Thanks, I like the plates with rills in particular. If you can add one li, 2 more plates with rills behind the sink or framing it would look even better. All plates is 0,5 li and well suited for linking. They are not so expensive. Of course I bought the full set... I have too many bathroom sets already. So eh, maybe I have a tiny regret for buying it, did I really need a new one? The shower is impressive and 8 li is fine for such craftmanship. The rest of the parts is having a Linden Home - friendly li, like 3 for a sink or the tub.

This is the Bradbury house, but it is other house types where it is hard to work with kitchen and bathroom modules. It is better to cover one or two windows than having cabinet modules partially covering the window. These light stone plates would be a fine backsplash too? Is it supposed to be limestone, I wonder? I saw that the big central room in the Heaton could have a kitchen under the stairs, where it is a huge window.

Additional information about exclusions

[Tary Allen]

Just went to Kraftwork to see what I wanted for the sale, boho mini kitchen was on my list, and guess what?

Just got it for 75L.  Got the fridge too

[Trinity Blakewell]

And the rolling home furnishing stores sales continue...for the last three weeks or so, one store or another (Fancy Decor, Fourth Wall, Kactus, Noveny, and so on)  has had massive sales for a few days,  and it looks like Kraftwork is next...

OK, Apple Fall, how about you?

"Current releases excluded"? So annoying. I had decided to buy their Contemporary Fireplace that was released in February. Other stores like Fancy Decor had no such limit...

[Trinity Blakewell]

Bricolage is also having a 50% off sale, through April 1. Mostly of interest in the areas of Victorian/Antique and Shabby Chic styles. Be aware that some of their stuff is not optimized well as far as LI and doesn't have great LOD settings (falls apart pretty quickly when the viewpoint pulls out).
