It’s the hot destination later today…get your running shoes on and prepare to get over to the Home & Garden Expo ! (For more info on opening time etc please hit the link for the official website) Soooo onto the goodies…my heart went all melty when I saw this bed from Katy’s Kreations, not only does it look über comfy but it has some totally adorable poses in it. Breakfast in bed, reading the papers and some couple animations. This and the bedside tables are sooper low prim and are a collaboration between Katy’s and RNP Animations, brilliant ! The Armoire is one of my favourite items so far, its by %Percent and just shouts quality ! The finish on this piece is excellent, you almost feel as if you could stroke the wood. Doors open to reveal the interior with storage space for *stuff* . (I will be showing more of this magnificent home by Glas Homes later, its a stunner!)

Spargel & Shine is another store I always enjoy, and this Sandalwood Sofa set is worth the teleport to the Expo alone ! Rich velvety textures make it so plush and squishy looking…single pringle and couples poses, plus wearables and items that rez from the activity menu, love it .» View author and full post…

Hola ! Weeeeeeeeeeeeee ! One of my favourite events is starting . The Home & Garden Expo is ready to roll later today. With an amazing eleven sims to wander and shop in, party in and play in ! You really shouldnt miss it, there’s also a breedables fair contained within it *ohmaiii*, SO much to do, So much to buy !

Lets get this ginormous partay started then huh?! You will find each designer has items on their pitch that are donation pieces. This means a percentage goes to the RFL charity collection. Each Expo exhibitor will be selling special new items for Relay For Life and the American Cancer Society so you can shop and help cancer patients and their families in real life too. This year’s Expo will feature eight regions full of home products, two sims just for the breedables fair and one entertainment sim where you can take a break from shopping and party in style. There is going to be a lot to see and do at this year’s Expo!

I’ve cobbled together a little reflection place for myself out of some of the designers items for the Expo this year…you dont have to be an interior designer to make your home gorgeous, the creators do the hard work for you, just buy and place it…voila!» View author and full post…

Cleo Design has some beautiful new additions instore. I’m sat at the “Breakfast in the garden” table above…it comes complete with the most mahoooosive set of food and condiments ! It’s the type of breakfast Id treat myself to on vacation…the chairs come with heaps of poses, some that give you props to wear such as the book and coffee I’m using in the photo. You also get mesh plants, the background complete with lilac sprig, alcove and jug of lilacs, and of course the perfect linen covered table….go see it, it’s totally romantic .

Also keep your eyes peeled for the new Turkish coffee set….SO pretty….I had to show you one of the cups close up. The teal green and gold are just gorgeous. The set comes on a silver tray, you can decide how many cups of coffee you place out, prims allowing ! Theres also a new summer tea set…just right for having out on the patio. Thanks Cleom <3

The Nest has a pretty cool Scavenger Hunt happening right now…just like the hunts I used to love doing yearssss back ! The clues are riddles, which you have to solve to find the gifts…and they aren’t always in the store, they can be hidden anywhere on the sim ! Dont worry though, I found them and I’m absolutely dire at hunts, so it’s not SO hard. Above is the fabbo prize from Cleo Design…lovely chair (touch the shadow for options on cushion textures) and a side table laden down with afternoon tea treats ! I love this set and shall have to squeeeeze it in at home someplace.

I also found this fantabulous cube gift from culprit…its stuffed with great poses and the texture of the piece is deeliciously strokabubble ! The wire frame is the prize from CheekyPea…low prim and perfect for your home…the rug is from iMukka…new-to-me store…blown away by the realism of the fur texture…(other furs available for sale)

Last up for today is the gift from CIRCA…It really tickled me ! If you manage to find this one you’ll gain yourself a rather splendid toilet, that not only has a sitting pose in it..but you can also have a goldfish swimming around in the bowl or a fountain spraying up !» View author and full post…

With architecture and interior being my nack,”Meshworx” happens to be another one of my favorite mesh stores to visit. Today, the extrodinary Loz Hyde of Meshworx reopens his shop with a lovely new build. I had the opportunity to see it before the official unveiling and I was floored. The shop is just gorgeous and the first thing to draw my eyes was the design of the ceiling. Its designed similar to a wave or basket and has holes that cast beautiful shadows throughout the floors. The concrete used for the walls looks realistic and light wood floors give it balance.

The open flow of the interior reminds me of another one of his first builds, “The Factory Loft”, but a tad bigger. Theres a hint of glass used to reach the loft area, which is just another great touch of detail. Other parts worth noting is the fully functional back alley, the rooftop area and additional boutiques that will house other designers later on. As for the outside, the exterior is surrounded by a lush park and a fountain with swans. Every area of the Meshworx shop is worth exploring and a great place for photography. If furniture isnt enough for you, the Fameshed venue is just down the road.» View author and full post…
