    Thank you Laurelrose Anthony.  What spurred me to become a premium member were the new log cabins, so I am glad to keep this traditional as my training house until the Moles are done creating a new space and the Lindens are ready to start rolling out the next phase of homes and log cabins.

    If you see me around, say hi, and glad to invite you over for a game of Hand & Foot.

    Just waded into premium and Linden homes.  Though it took a few days, was happy to have a traditional as my first home.  Whomever abandoned this one, thank you or I would  still be clicking "refresh".

    Though not right on the water, you can see it from the bedroom, patio, back yard, and from the kitchen window.  If I want to see the water it is a quick bicycle ride down the street.

    The back yard is big enough to entertain....come on and join in on a game of Hand & Foot or Eucher.  Food is always hot off the grill, and drinks are always cold.

    Room Design on a Budget

    Thank you for the feedback LittleMe Jewell...wish I'd known that before tackling the bathroom. 

    I don't have the exact prim count (not in world at the moment), but the cost was under $200L, and should be less than 50LI.

    I was fortunate to find a nice bathroom with animations....the shower would not fit, so....my sweetie dropped the shower he had in the bathroom (which has tons of animations, low LI and was less than $200L), and I used the sink, toilet, lights, towel rack, toilet paper, waste basket, and hand towel from my set.   The bathtub was a $10L full per mesh (no animation) bathtub from the marketplace and modified by added texture, water, and steam.  In order to create a bathroom, I put up some simple prim walls with texture (texture was a lovely group gift from Texture Me True). 

    The tray with candles and rose petals were part of a full perm spa set from {XO} (and the whole set is only $1L on the MP).

    Since the view from the bathroom window was not to my liking, I made a semi-transparent prim and added mountain scenery (yes...my final happy place will be a log cabin in the woods...but this traditional is a good place for me to learn).  Semi-transparent allowed natural light to come in through the window (you can see it refracting off the steam coming from the tub).

    Wish me luck in trying to keep the living room and bedroom costs lower (though I am close to accepting I will have to pay more if I want decent animations).

    Feedback is appreciated....and can't want to see other peoples frugal spaces.

    In all fairness, I hope they find a way to communication to all Premium members across multiple platforms at the same time (email, in-world,  community blog update, Premium member page). To provide notice first to those in Bellisseria seems lopsided - since they already have a premium home - and there are many other premium members who don't have one, or have been in the lower prim homes and are trying for one of the newer style homes - but are unable to capture.  The only reason I stumbled across the log cabin preview was because I had asked if there was somewhere to view the different premium homes, and someone in the Helping Heavens group was kind enough to share the link to the log cabins.  Otherwise, finding information on new homes (or releases) seems to be like finding a needle in a haystack.  I am grateful to the person who abandoned their Traditional - and I love my first LL, and hope that when more/new homes are released it will be communicated in a way to provide all Premium members a true chance to find the home of the dreams.

    You might want to pay careful attention to the complexity of some of the items there -- number of triangles/vertices and amount of textures used is really high on some items.  

    Still very new to SL and the issue of complexity is something I need to learn more about.  Right now managing prims, aesthetics and a personal budget (which I completely just blew for a bedroom set) is a learning curve for me.  With that said, I enjoy reading everyone's comments as I learn something from everyone.

    I thought it would be fun to design a room on a tight budget.  My goal was to try to keep it under $60L & 60LI. 

    Thanks to being a freebie hunter, and finding some deals on the marketplace, I managed to design a kitchen for $23L and a 55 LI.

    Would love to see anyone else's frugal and beautiful space.
