Create a peaceful place of beauty in your garden with the Sevilla Gazebo from Scafall. The gazebo is 41 LI out of the box, it is copy/modify, and it sports both PBR and legacy textures. There’s also the Sevilla Hanging Lights, that you can purchase separately, or together with the gazebo.
As mentioned in my previous post, the Konoha “Jest” Bushes are a landscaper’s dream come true. In the pack you’ll find a curved group of bushes, and guess what, they fit so nicely around the gazebo! You can of course rez all the different bushes one by one to put them exactly how you want them.
Both the Scafall Sevilla Gazebo, and the Konoha “Jest” Bushes are at the 12th anniversary round of Cosmopolitan, until April 13th. Make sure to pick up all the gifts while you’re there!
In my next blog post I’ll be inviting you to join me inside the gazebo for some food and drinks, because you have to try the new poufs I got from Bloom!

I have followed and admired Keira Raindale’s work since I became a SL resident back in 2017/18, and now I’m so lucky to be able to showcase her work on my blog. Raindale is participating in this round of We Love Roleplay with the Dappleglow collection. This collection consists of two tree stumps, where one is a seat (solo sits), and the other is a magical source with light and animated sparkles! You also get a big collection of mystical mushrooms (notice I did not say magic mushrooms, and also these are not possible to ingest); 3 different mushroom shapes in 5 different colors.
Konoha is at Cosmopolitan with the “Jest” Bushes collection. Now this is every landscapers dream! Bushes, 1-2 LI each! 12 different shapes single bushes, and 2 linked groups (5-7 LI). The season change menu offers 6 different types of green foliage, 7 different autumn foliage, and a bare snowy winter version. They are absolutely stunning bushes, and I am totally in love with them.
Another thing that is useful for landscapers, are the cliff covers from FANATIK. The kit contains 10 building pieces; 6 rock walls, 2 platforms, and ramp + ramp mirror. Compatible with the FANATIK Land Shapes. Texture change HUD with 5 different rock types and snowy versions. You can find the Cliff Covers NG in the FANATIK mainstore.
May the flowers remind us why the rain was so necessary.

I’m very happy to welcome Bee’s That Way to my blog, showcasing a couple of their new releases that are dropping this weekend. The Spring Yard Flags are new releases for the Spring round of the Farmers Market Main Store Event, running from April 4th through April 12th. There are 4 different signs, each come in 3 different metal finishes (gold, iron and silver). The cute Puddle Wellies come in 8 variants, and they will be available for this upcoming Wanderlust Weekend sales, so look out for them on April 6th-7th, in the BTW mainstore!
Landscaping items and flowers are all previous releases by Konoha, available in the Konoha mainstore (see list below).
There’s magic in the forest, hidden to the human eye, but a bit fickle. Maybe you catch a glimpse of a shadow through the veil, hear a twig snap, or a quiet giggle? It might very well be a fae, playing with you. Because that’s what some of them do!
The Forest Nook is a new release from LORE for Hexical’s Light of the Earth event. This is a cozy tree stump hideaway for fae, forest folk, and nature lovers alike! It’s available in PG and Adult versions. It includes 4 season textures for the stump and ladder, as well as 15 colors for the blanket, mattress, and pillows separately. The nook is 16 LI. There are physics on top and a ladder on the side to climb up so you can put a table or other items up there too.
You can also find the LORE Fae Lantern while at Light of the Earth. These lovely lanterns come with 4 seasonal textures for the wood as well as 6 metal textures for the lantern. There is also tint/glow control for the lamp part so you can customize it to your color palette! I’ve tinted mine purrrple-ish! Pink?
The rest of the items used in this scene are previous releases from Konoha and Yugen. See list below!
Spring in Japan, anyone? *Looks out the window to his snow-covered lawn.* I’d definitely go!
The Prunus lanie – 3rd, Park Set from Konoha offers three trees (23, 18 and 16 Li each), 3 different density modes, and season change script with several flower color choices. You can find these beautiful trees at the NEO Japan event until April 14th.
I had some time to kill yesterday evening, so I set up this scene for the Summertime Cottage by DaD, which is a previous release on sale for this weekend’s Happy Weekend Mainstore Sales, March 30th-31st. It’s a beautiful coastal style wooden cottage, open layout with a big front porch and 3 large living areas. Tip: You can edit linked the pillars under the house to fit the terrain. Outdoor lamp with light on/off by touch. The blowing curtains are included, and they come in 4 shapes, and with two texture options.
The two beautiful vintage sink and bathtub succulent planters by the steps are also from DaD, check them out while you’re there!

An illusion or not, we still count the days until the Engine Room event opens on March 20th, and tomorrow is the day! LORE will participate with the splendidly done Splendid Set! A beautiful Steampunk set, consisting of a small shed in wood and iron, with brass decor, and with a working clock on the roof. The clock is softlinked to the building so that you can remove it if you prefer without. The Auto-Rubbish bin, which opens upon touch, and closes again automatically (spinny lever!), comes in black, blue, brown, green and red. A bench in iron and wood, with beautiful decorative elements, and to complete the set, there’s also cast iron bollards with chains, and a plank path kit! Be splendid!
The landscape, apart from the Elder Oak and the fluffy Natoma grass from Konoha, consists solely of land forms, rocks and textures provided by FANATIK. The Abano Bushy Terrain pack contains 4 different mesh land forms, with different terrain textures. The Abano Path set consists of 3 path pieces. The Abano Rock Cluster pack contains 4 different land forms with rock clusters, and lastly the Abano Pebbles set consisting of 6 different meshes with pebble and terrain texture. All of which come with season change HUD (summer/winter). All the pieces can be placed together beautifully into an entire landscape. I used them all in my picture. The cliffs in the background I made by retexturing bigger mesh land forms, using the Ground Layers group gifts from FANATIK.

Look at the cuteness! The Easter Bunny Gang from DaD even have names! From left to right: Cotton Tail, Daffodil, Dizzie, Boo Boo, and Chubby Chub. It looks like the gang has been scrumping for carrots, and now they’re making an escape! You can catch these cute bunnies at this round of Equal10. You can buy them separately or as a fatpack.
The owner of the cottage might not even get angry about a few missing carrots when they see who’s out there. The Abbey Cottage is a charming stone cottage, with an open living and kitchen area on the ground floor and a half loft for your bed. Its footprint is 13.5 x 15.5 m and 126 Li.
Not being tense but ready, not thinking yet not dreaming, not being set but flexible — it is being wholly and quietly alive, aware and alert, ready for whatever may come.

I will protect the Precious Dragon Egg from LORE, that’s hidden inside one of the cave chambers of the FANATIC Caves. Word of this precious bejeweled egg’s existence came out, so thieves and goblins have been trying to find it for days now, and now they’ve found the portal. I’m ready.
