Oh I just had to share this before I leave for my vacation…+sanctuaire+ is giving a gift a day from under their Christmas Tree…I wandered over and todays gift is this set of mesh gift boxes. They are soooooper pretty and only 2 prims per box ! Twelve boxes all together, four different designs…and set as mod & trans so you can actually use them…even the little gift tags have messages on them…I adore <3

The Advent season is a time of cheer in Second Life, particularly in the hands of generous creators! I have mixed feelings about Advent simply because I’m a forgetful fae and having to do something every day is pretty much designed to trip me up! So far I’m doing pretty well, though; almost everything I’m wearing is an Advent prize I’ve gotten over the past eight days, though all muddled up and needless to say not available anymore. The dress is from Falln Angel Creations, and is one of the many free things available at the store; there’s an advent tree along with additional lucky prizes under the tree nearby and a free gift every time you enter the store as well! The glasses and horns are fun gifts from 22769, one of the more confusingly named stores, but definitely a generous creator. I’m particularly fond of the horns, with their flickering candles giving off light. The cosmetics on my eyes are from Elymode, and there are also outfits in the offing – a picture above the Advent prizes shows ranges of prizes to tempt you. The amazing hair with red and green highlights are from Alice Project» View author and full post…, and she’s releasing a new hair a day with the special coloring, which is really fun!

So, I adore Christmas time…and I get pretty frenzied with excitement in general…I was 50% or thereabout pumped with Festive cheer on the 1st December..and then…I went to the Arcade Christmas gatcha event…ohnoesssss! I found this little gem by Trompe Loeil the ”Advent Calendar 2012″, isn’t it pretty? Not only is it free should you want to just hang it up in your home as decor but…and this is the amazing super terrific clever part…listen hard…listening? Alright..the gatcha machine sells little keys…only 25L a pop…the keys are numbered to correspond with the calendars doors…I had a go and got key one and key 12….and you know what? I was actually TOO excited to use them for about an hour !!! Seriously…eventually…I decided I could wait no more…rezzed key one…the little door on the calendar swung open to reveal my gift *gasp*…and then I was sent the item….ohmaiii….I quickly fumbled around for my second key…rezzed it…door swung open to show me my second prize ! I thought Id faint with pleasure..the gifts were divine…and I’ve got ten more keys to go ! Ive kept the doors on my calendar closed , so not to spoil the surprise for you…but they look awfully sweet open…you can also use the keys for decoration alongside …sooperdooper awesomeness…my favourite thing ever !» View author and full post…
