{what next} @ the Home & Garden Expo!

May 19, 2012

We’re very happy to be sponsoring a sim this year at the Home & Garden Expo in support of Relay for Life/American Cancer Society. We have several new sets only available at the Expo, so this is going to be a pretty long post! First up, is our 100% donation items for RFL, the Loungin Chair and a Half Sets and Wall Prints, designed to coordinate with our other music themed Loungin pieces at Culture Shock.

The Charlotte Living Room Set (mesh) is all new, available in three inspired and fresh colour palettes and would suit a range of homes, from contemporary to cottage. {what next} V.I.P members can purchase each set at 50% off compared to purchasing each piece individually – just make sure to have your group tag active and pay from the RED sign! Pieces are for sale individually also.

Since we’ve had requests for a new cuddle chair for two, we also have the chair & half sets to work with the Charlotte Living Room. All the chair and a half sets sit two avatars, either friends or couples (romantic PG style cuddles and kisses!), they also give out props as required for various animations such as chatting on the phone, drinking, reading, on a laptop for example.

Many thanks to Pitsch Parx of UrbanizeD, who created an ethereal enchanted forest type feel to Sims 1&2, making them quite unique at this year’s Expo, as well as beautiful places to wander or cycle around.

We have a variety of live music planned for most days to entertain you while you shop. Many of SL’s best-loved live performers will be taking the stage and donating an hour of their time for this important cause, as well as the awesome DJ Cameron Trenchcoat, owner of the popular live music hangouts, the Whisky-a-go-go and the Rock Store. Shows start tonight at 8pm SLT on Sim #1, with professional musician FrankLee Anatra, performing contemporary rock & pop covers, originals with his smooth vocals and acoustic guitar, followed by singer songwriter ReggieSunset Rookswood at 9pm, with his dreamy ballads! Come hang out with us, bring a friend or a date and relax in the beautiful landscaped gardens at UrbanizeD.

Last Day for RFL Home Expo Items!

May 22, 2011

It’s the last day of the Home & Garden Expo and also the last chance to pick up the limited edition RFL Flutter items there:

The sofa has singles as well as couples sits and comes complete with a wearable guitar prop, laptop and reading book to wear with the custom animations.

It’s also the last chance to pick up the scavenger hunt items – we’re hiding three little houses on our expo plot and you can pick up these slipper chairs, teatray and cakes for 25L each (also Juliet’s Loveseat too, not shown here) , all proceeds going to the RFL.

You can see some of the Flutter items in the Laurel Cottage, and find the RFL vendors near the front of the plot on the left. If you haven’t already been to visit (it’s a massive 10 sims big in total!), I recommend you go now before it shuts!
