Rustic Hygge

Showcasing the Soul2Soul Rustic Chic Dining Collection that’s out at TLC right now, as well as the Rustic Wood Set from InsurreKtion that’s available at the eBento event. Of course, I added some treats that are on offer for the weekend sales from both KOPFKINO and Granola.

The Rustic Chic Dining Collection from Soul2Soul combines vintage charm and a hint of reclaimed industrial design with modern chic styling. The Dining Table & Chairs comfortably seats six and blends old wood, leather and metal in fusion with chenille upholstery in 4 different colour palettes for a little luxury. Together with a Buffet Table, Mason Jar accent Lights, table Decor and a contemporary Print. Tables and carver chairs are equipped with an easy-to-use, menu-driven texture options system. The white version is tintable.Chairs have many singles bento animations.

The Rustic Wood Set by InsurreKtion is a set of beautiful rustic decor items that fits anywhere from your entryway to your lodge living space; the set contains Console, Table, Baskets, Pottery Candelabra, Wall Candelabra, Candlesticks, Old Boots and 4 different paintings.

KOPFKINO has two new releases in store for this weekend’s 60L$ Happy Weekend Sale. In this scene is the Candied Almonds Decor piece that comes in a material and non-material version, is copy/modify and has a land impact of 3. There’s also a holdable Candied Almonds version available.

The Pumpkin Pie Tray Dispenser from Granola does exactly what it says; it dispenses you a slice of pumpkin pie on a plate. Yum! Texture change HUD for the wooden board and the cloth. This was released for Fifty Linden Friday but if you hurry over to the Granola mainstore you can still purchase it at the sale price!

Rural Bliss

I love doing big scenes. Problem is, they take a while to set up, just to be taken down again shortly after shooting. Often times I reuse these scenes for furniture and decor or fashion close-ups before clearing the platform. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the new releases from DaD, Konoha, The Little Branch and Soul2Soul! The Soul2Soul Seville Orangery Set is featured in my previous blog post, by the way, if you want to take a closer look.
