Holiday Teddies!! EC&M Style...lafs

2007-12-01T12:45:00.000-05:00

Well, someone once asked me if I would be doing "teddies" anytime soon... Tho I don't think is exactly what was meant... *laffs* here are two of the finished ones. Each TeddyBear is themed on a Holiday dress currently out. They can be worn on the hand. (Sorry, try as I might, I was not able to get a TeddyBear AO.) You can find all Current bears in any of the shops.

You can also see (and maybe get) a free JD Plaza Bear that was made for Santa to give out this weekend for eth Grand outing there.

Last note... and A very cool one I think... Skye Qi (my rl sister for those who don't know) will be setting out a set of Music of the Night ~ Phantom of the Opera Bears soon... When she releases her Phantom Collection. So Daae bear & Phantom Bear will only be at Skye Qi Vintage Reproductions. (These are actually my fav 2 bears.)

Have fun and hope your Holiday shopping is a hoot!! *Smiles & Waves*

Final Day of Sale

2007-09-24T15:30:00.000-04:00

Some in the works....

Hoop earrings
Bracelets
Maybe even some pasties.

Anywho, thank you all for your patience and I will try and post more soon.

Gotta Love that First Blog spot!

2007-08-24T01:40:00.001-04:00

I never know just how to kick off a new blog, so here goes nothing.....

I'm hoping that this blog will at some point turn into something of a tutorial for Second Life. One of my favorite things about SL is content creation. Just about anything if fair game once I set my mind to it. I attend as many classes a week as I can fit in and even teach a few up at Mystical Mastery.

Recently, my main shop, Evolution Creations & Mystics, was renovated to give me a bit more room. It was the highlight of my week. *laffs* Now I have more room for all my stuff. My goal with shops is not to make a small in-game fortune, but rather to hear ppl when then come in get all excited. "Ohhhh Lookie what I just found... How cool is that!!" Man, I live for those momments.

Now a bit about where I live. About 2 months in-world I saw an ad for an artist collony. I was stunned... free room and board in exchange for 1/3 shop revenue. Talk about taking a huge chance on a newbie! I hope he thinks the gamble paided off... cause he has kept me on ever since. St. Pomme is a small community now. With a cafe, shops, and nightlife. Great ppl and a feeling I haven't found anywhere else. Stop on by some time! It's Pamran in Search region.

One of the things that makes Island life soooo cool? Well, I get to live withmy RL sister for the first time in our lives. We work together on designs and projects, and generally get to hang out! Gods I love SL. We also share the house with our Heartsister. So we have a blast. Chances are you'll find someone chilling out by our campfire, or puttering with some project nearby.

Hope to see you around!

I hope to update this blog often with class info, events, shop stuff, and if I can manage it... some cool tutorials.
