Change The Ending

You can’t go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending.

The Little Branch is at the Manly Arena Event with the Cherry Tree v3. The cherry tree is the most widely planted ornamental tree. Cherry trees in orchards are kept to 15 feet tall to facilitate harvesting, but left to themselves would grow to 30 feet. There’s also the Aspen Spring Tree which is now available at The Little Branch mainstore.

The most recent addition to the Never Totally Dead collection of replicas from le Hameau de la Reine in Versailles, France, is Le Colombier. It was used as a pigeon and poultry house, and therefore not used for human lodging. I made it into a charming countryside summer house for this picture. Check out this and the rest of the beautiful collection of Hameau de la Reine builds at the Never Totally Dead mainstore!

A Walk In The Park

Sander Sunborne Leave a comment

Literally. That’s what it is, a walk in the park. When I lived in the city the puppies and I walked in the park every day. It was a beautifully landscaped park but it didn’t have a beautiful fountain or stone benches, like the Andover Park Gacha Collection from Refuge. Collect all the pieces at this round of The Arcade.

There’s a new collection of NG Outfits made available for you at the Hoorenbeek mainstore! I’m wearing the Brandon outfit; duffle coat, untucked army shirt, rolled up slim jeans, untied Norfolk shoes and tortoise Wayfarer glasses all in the Brandon box! Compatible with Legacy (shown on me), Belleza Jake, Signature Geralt and Gianni, SLink male mesh bodies and Classic Avatars.

The Old Gas Station

Sander Sunborne Leave a comment

I can’t believe I forgot to put gas in the car! Good thing B-Made still has the Old Gas Station at this round of Cosmopolitan or I’d be taking a long walk 😉

The Old Gas Station comes furnished, cars included (unlinked)! Scripted ceiling lamps. Realistic sounds; lots of interactive items, like the old radio oh I love that one! You can find animations in two of the cars too! Footprint is 40×32.

My outfit is put together with items found in the FashionNatic mainstore. Got to love that t-shirt with the Sting open sweatshirt! The Pathos jeans come in regular and boot version so I tried on the boot version together with the Sinder Boots.

In The Half-Light

Sander Sunborne Leave a comment

Be seeing you, sweetling. In the half-light.

The Buzzing

For this round of Cosmopolitan, GOOSE has the Umbrella Bench set. The umbrella lantern is a fun, a little strange but beautiful piece which inspired the half-light mood of this picture. The bench comes in PG and Adult versions.

I’m also featuring the beautiful aelin tree and the noori flower by Yugen. Like all trees from Yugen, you get a leaf and bark HUD and you can find four different versions of the tree in the box and each version come in a high and a low LOD version. The noori flowers come with or without fireflies, touch the flower for texture changer menu. Easy peasy and you’ve got yourself the most beautiful and magical scenery!
