Frigga Freidman

I've tried to log into SL on and off numerous times in the last 2-3 hours with no luck, so no sales/shopping pointers from me this weekend - Happy Holidays, everyone!

Best wishes for the Holidays and the year to come!

Windowless igloos?! 😲😜

Some inspiration for Newbrookes and maybe other themes: https://www.themodernhouse.com/journal/top-ten-home-interiors-2022/

I did post a few images of this Tortuga when the Stilts were first released, but as I now want to downgrade one of my Premium accounts I have 5 days to decide which of my two Stilt parcels to abandon. This one is on the edge of the western void, and I was certain that it was the one I'd give up... until I started taking photos. Warning: there are about 80 pictures, which anyone can see if so inclined on my FB page: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.498877685669949&type=3 (Photos of the Lauderdale to follow.)

Newfoundland pups from Jian Pets are on sale for $50 per coat color at the Designer Outlet. Companion, wanderer and held included.

Linked with all the decor items as shown, the Sakura Middle Table at Erfe Design is 5 LI (the advert says 8 LI) and $75. The Clentine TV set is an entire wall with linked decor items. The display model is 10 LI, but it's huge and as it's advertised as being 7 LI I expect it's shown larger than what's in the box. $75.

Weekend sale items at Serenity Style: the Blue Winter Entry set is $60. The 8 LI Country Hanging Chair (with a couple texture change options) is $60 PG, $75 A.

It's at least 7 years old, considering the outfit it's part of in my inventory. Old style with an alpha layer.

The Holiday Eve decor set is on sale at Nutmeg this weekend for $60.

Two nice sets are on sale at Muniick this weekend. The writing desk set is $60, PG or A (yes, the desk lamp works!). The vintage record cabinet set is also $60.

Looking for a statement piece for your livingroom this holiday season? Floorplan's 12 LI sofa (limited texture-change options for throw and pillows) is $50, PG or A. The 1 LI leaning mirrors are $99 per color. The 9 LI fireplace with candles (texture-change menu for the candles, which remain lit) is $199 for the plaster and wood versions, and $50 for the cream-painted brick version.

Note: This query is now being addressed in a separate thread!

There are add-ons for specific Linden homes that you can find in the Marketplace, but be aware that some have a high land impact or are not especially well-made. When you identify something you'd like to buy, it's best to read any reviews you find within the Marketplace listing, and maybe ask here in the forums if anyone is using that particular add-on, and if they can either post photos or let you visit their home to see it 'in the flesh'. Changing your Linden home will mean one of two actions: 1) changing the model of house within the theme and parcel you already have, or 2) abandoning your current parcel for one in another theme or the same theme but in a different location. Let us know which you want to do for more precise instructions!

Actually, there’s a clue in one of the earlier photos posted in this thread. (Well, not so much a clue as an outright identification 😄 ) Literally just down the road from my trad…

Guess where I am? You've got to savour the details... [Note to Moles: There was no option for me to rez books or laptops - was I doing something wrong or is there a setting in the parcel that needs tweaking?]

Meanwhile, at Muniick, you can also pick up these 2 LI hanging poinsettias for only $25.

Looking for an inexpensive, attractive Christmas centerpiece? Then hurry to Artisan Fantasy! Both styles of centerpiece are 2 LI, and for $25 you'll get each style with red and white poinsettias.

Just spent too much time looking for this mini tutorial I'd posted about creating a wall covering with blank window or door areas. (Why oh why, LL, can we not search our own activity listings?) So, here it is to remind me how I did it, and for anyone else who wants to give it a try. (EDIT: Must now add that this only works well if the walls are 'well-proportioned' - i.e. in a 1:1 or 1:2 ratio. Unfortunately, I've discovered that the walls with windows in the Shore Thing HB are definitely not, and the resulting distorted grid texture isn't helpful. For a house that I know I won't keep for more than a couple of months, it's not worth trying to find an alternative method...)

Shark Bait - new houseboats - released. Looks like only 4 claimed so far.

I've *just* gotten a new release in Shark Bait - looks like only 4 houseboats have been claimed there so far.

UPDATE: 4 hours later and it's still in Maintenance, from the time that I abandoned it, 13:00 SLT. Well, I've just checked, and there is already at least one Log Home on the LP right now, but I'm going to abandon an excellent location in Darling Clementine - front porch faces west looking at the lake and the bridge, back is very private, not immediately overlooked by any neighbors. So, if this appeals, take your chance at 1pm SLT. (Currently in Maintenance. I've had it since its release on April 15th 2020 - bye, bye!)

Something for @Polenth Yue and other 'shroom/fantasy fans - this 3 LI mushroom floor lamp is only $25 at Blue Blood. (Color options.)

These are most of the gifts on offer. The trees on the right are from Apple Fall (along with the Santa, the ribbons, the baked goods and the framed illustration) - 4 LI for the small one and a whopping 23 LI for the large one wth fairy lights, but you can size it down so it's the size of the small one and reduce it to 11 LI. The small stuff on the round table is a sample of the gifts from Thor, the potato Santa is from Aardvark, the 4 metal trees (only 1 LI when linked) are from Disorderly, the candle tree (3 LI) is from Madras and the framed trees with fairy lights (3 LI each set) are from Dahlia. (The wreath is from Elm and at 5 LI and exceedingly poor LODs isn't worth getting.)

This rather sleek-looking 7 LI fireplace, with 1 LI tool set, is available at Tartesso Arts for $60 this weekend.
