Cajsa’s Fast Five: February 26th

Fast Five Today’s list of must-reads has fabulous photos and a clever game. Be sure to check them out.

 

 

  1. 034-Angels in the Ceiling by Opal Lei. Where’s Dim Sum? is a fun, witty and unique SL blog. Each day, Opal Lei takes a photo of Dim Sum on location. Dim Sum is her white cat avatar and your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to find Dim Sum. An in-world daily Where’s Waldo? with a cat, today’s picture was pleasantly challenging.  Continue reading

Snowbound

Too Much Weather

 

I had plans to go out and do some shopping and maybe have a little lunch, but the wind howling through the pines and the snow accumulating on my windows told me that I’d best order in, and make no plans for this wintry day. Continue reading

Gidge’s Fast Five – February 25th

GidgeFast Five

 

It’s time for another issue of The Fast Five I hope you like what I’ve found today that thought I’d share.

1. Grey and Yellow: There is never any question about the quality of the images Villemo Inglewood produces, but I was very fond today of her use of grey and yellow and tying her very chic and high fashion look to something as normal as a paved road.  Continue reading

Fast Five

 

 

  1. The Tea Garden from Editorial Clarity-Flux. Gorgeous photos, beautifully design, and tea, what’s not to love?
  2. Burglaries, Brollies, Beauties, Books and Beasts – Inara Pey lists some upcoming book events (live readings) that folks might enjoy. I wish I had read this yesterday, I might have loved the Sherlock Holmes reading, though I could not have attended anyway because SL would not let me wear any clothes!
  3. Folly – from Dantelicia Ethaniel who always excites me with her wild eye when she takes her fashion photos.
  4. Tell Me a Story – from Elysium Hynes, not just because I like the picture, but because I want folks to know how she is using Pinterest to catalog Second Life events and sales.
  5. Love Missile F1-11 from Whimsy Winx who smartly addresses the problem of what to do when you have tight sleeves with your mesh hands.  I have just removed the wrists before and that didn’t work, but she has an elegant solution. You can see how well it works in her pictures.

Cajsa’s Fast Five: February 23rd

Fast FiveHere’s the five posts I think you should not miss today:

  1. Just What is the Beef with Advertising? – Ciaran Laval discusses Linden Labs new adoption of advertising on their web site. 
  2. Re-Opening Delicatessen – Meta Body II: Quan Lavender highlights the new iteration of the very successful Meta Body event by Capcat Ragu and Meilo Minotaur.
  3. Big City: Sasy Scarborough has a found a must-have jacket.
  4. A Night at the Cemetery: Wise Sandalwood is ghoulishly beautiful.
  5. Single Frame Stories: A Retrospective: Deoridhe Quandary asks what she can learn by  putting her images taken over time all together in a collection. She is reflecting on this quote: “[E]ven our most frivolous, clichéd or reflexive work reflects a deep and pervasive web of subconscious stories and associations.”

Gidge’s Fast Five – Number 1

Cajsa is always thinking of new things to do to celebrate the things we like, and while I’d like to take credit for this idea, I can’t. I’d like to welcome you to the firs edition of FAST FIVE – the five blog posts that I found inspiring, pretty, made me shop or otherwise caught my eye today – and which I think you are remiss if you don’t see them too. We’ll do this column as the spirit moves us. Could be daily could be weekly could be ten times a day (un-likely).

With that, let’s begin.

1.OWLS – There is something lovely and whimsical about people who like owls. Owls are sort of ruthless predators who like to gut things then eat them. Yet, there is a softer side to the beast, and the people who love owls must see it better than I.  Also places with random balloons can never be bad.  Continue reading

Upskirting for Brumly

Upskirting for Brumly

 

My friend has been blathering on in her “I am always right” sort of way that I needed to download Niran’s viewer because it makes Firestorm look like an old bag lady. Only she wasn’t so polite.

I’ve been an old Firestorm girl but since the gridlines and big black box issues, I just stopped taking pics in it mostly because I can’t FIX them. So today, before I logged in to shop, I downloaded Niran’s. The rest, is history. Continue reading

Linden Home Makeover – Progress

Linden Home Makeover - 104 Proffit

 

104 Profitt continues to evolve weekly as creators release more amazing and beautiful mesh decor pieces. I am adding and subtracting to find that perfect look that suits me and makes dwelling within 117 prims a pleasure rather than a hardship.

Linden Home Makeover_Eat In Kitchen

Not too much is new with the kitchen. I put up a wall and a bit of decoration. This space is so big, I think I’d like an everyday version of Handverk’s holiday table to fill it. (HINT HINT HANDVERK). Continue reading
