New Citizen's Mall

If you are under 120 days and interested in some free Vendor space, look no further than...




http://slurl.com/secondlife/Kuula/26/229/35

This is a GREAT space for newbies to show off what they have learned to build and create.

For us oldbies.. Just LOOK what I found!



Petal Meg has some FAB jewelry for good prices and Hubby's Boutique has been raved about in a bunch of the Fashion Blogs.

If you are under 120 and want some space, there are some RUUULLLEESS.. Lemme give ya a little taste of them


1. You must be 120 days old or younger to get free vendor space at
the NCI Mall. Older players may get space for a commision fee,
space allowing. (Younger residents will always get priority for any
space available.) If you are over 120 days you must use our vendor.
2. You are allowed only one vendor. The vendor should use no more
than 5 prims. (In general, this would allow a forward and back
arrow, a picture area, an info button, and a text setter prim.)
You may use our vendor if you need one, if you are over 120 days you
must our vendor to pay commission fees. The vendor may give out
landmarks to your main location, if you have one. We want you to
get your name out there! However please do not set out an object
that is simply a landmark distributor.
NO TIP JARS
3. The NCI Mall is in a PG region, and as such, all vendors and all items sold
must be acceptable for a PG region. No nudity, and thus, no skins
please.
4. You may not resell anything that you have purchased elsewhere here,
that goes for anything you have aquired free as well as anything you
have paid for. Your name must appear in the "Creator:" slot.
5. You may not falsely advertise, or advertise deceptively, any boxed item.
If the vendor sells something other than what it claims, it will be
returned.
6. You may not sell gambling machines or devices of any kind.
7. i. You may not set up Hippiepay "vendors" or Pyramid systems, nor any
type of money scamming device, and so
ii. You may not sell any inventory that violates the spirit of Second Life,
nor anything that explicitly violates ANY of the Second Life Terms of Service

WOW
They may be strict, but NCI Kuula gets some of the BEST non camper traffic on the grid. This is great for newbies. I wish they would have had this when I was first getting started. Then you all could have bought my shoes WAY BACK WHEN! :}

Baaack.. again?

It's true sometimes. When it rains, it pours.
So I decide to start blogging again, make a bunch of new shoes. I'm ready to GO.. and tragedy strikes.
My real life father passed away suddenly on August 2nd. BAM! Just like that. Now, lemme give you a little slice of my Real Life.
I make intercoms for grocery stores and warehouses. It's a family company. I go to work every weekday with my mother, my father and my sister. So to lose the tech guy, the designer of all our products, is a MAJOR loss. We are trying to pick up the pieces as best we can. But he never wrote a damn thing down! Not to mention, I lost my FATHER. My Daddy! As you get older, you start to lose the people you looked up to. In recent years, I've lost my Grandma to breast cancer, my Grandfather to suicide and now my father to a massive heart attack.
I know you all are wondering how I'm doing. I know this because everyone asks me! I'm doing what I can. I'm surviving one day at a time. Thank you for your prayers. Thank you for asking how I'm doing. Thank you for caring.
If you can do one thing for me. Just one little thing. Do the one thing I can't do. Give your father a call. No matter if you don't have a good relationship with him or not. Just a little call. What could it hurt?

I'm BAAACCCK

Hey.. remember me?

yeah.. bout time I remembered that I had a blog. It's just been a really busy time for me, in RL and SL. I moved my store to a nice class five island. It's bigger and better. I've been working on tons of new shoes. In fact I just released 22 NEW pairs. Lemme plop some photoage on you.





That's just a small taste of the new shoes at my store.. how about a SLurl?

Sarabi Designs

With a sad heart I write this post. One of my fav designs of hair, from way back, Sarabi Designs, is closing. RL sometimes takes of SL and we all understand that. I, for one, will miss Sarabi's fun designs. Also, I'll miss Sarabi. She's is one of those great people you are lucky to meet in SL. She's having a $10L sale until the store totally closes, so come down, and give her the biggest send off EVER!

3000 Views

Wow.. 3000 views.. I'm pretty darn impressed. People took the time to read my blog 3000 times. Does this make Rowan internet famous now?

Accessories by Eolande

So I love Lucky Chairs. I'll tell ya why.. it's not the free stuff, though that is a nice benefit. They lead me to designers I never would have known about. Like Eolande Elvejham, the owner of Accessories by Eolande. This designer makes these adorable accessories for your hair. NOT hair, just cute things that really set off other designers' hair. So I see an R come across the Lucky Chair channel and I hit the SLurl. After a sec of loading I get a Rainbow Brite T. Nice. THEN the rest of the store loads and my JAW drops! Such prim torture! Such a neglected area that I haven't stuck things to my AV with yet!

For note. I'm wearing the Amorosa hair I found in my inventory from Simply Britnee. Haven't been there in awhile. Hmm..

Top Left corner is the Filigree Heart Stick in Silver. Would you look at those tiny little prims! This is so cute for only $100L. I had to have it! In RL, my late grandmother loved hearts, she would have loved this soo much. It's such fine prim work. You don't see alot of filigree work like this. Also comes in Gold and Red.

Top Right Corner is the Celtic Valentine Stick in Silver. I love Silver.. so much more than gold. Though to see my shop, you wouldn't think it. Again, the fine tiny prim work here. I wanna ask Eolande how she got such nice hearts with the loop in the dip. I really like that little detail. And BTW.. it's KELtic.. not SELtic people.. no matter what those Bostonians say. Again, $50L! I like the Rainbow version to. Very pretty. There is also Pink, Red and Gold.

Bottom Left Corner is Punky Star Barrettes in Pink. Comes in a pack of two, one for each side of your head, but wearable seperately. She has these in a bunch of colors. So Retro 80's! Of course, I had to have the pink, but they are only one color out of 8, each for $50L I'd like to see a fat pack of these, so I can have EVERY COLOR!

Middle and bottom Left. This is so pretty. The White Daisy Circlet. For us Pretty pretty Princesses! The ribbons are seperate and flexi, so you don't have to wear them. I included a little close up detail, because the prim work is so well done. There are all these little stems and curly vines. The kind of stuff you see on real flower circlets. You can buy a single daisy for your hair, but I went all out and bought the circlet. This is soo fab for only $150L. This would make a great wedding piece.. or even a flower girl or bridesmaid accessory.

Bottom Middle is the Hibiscus Island Sunrise Stick. I love this texture. I might buy it off her and redo my entire store in it. I love RL roses in this color. I wish I could keep them alive. The soft yellow to a vibrant coral color. It's sooo island beautiful. You should see the rest of the Hibiscus set. Really sends you to the islands just to look at them. Again, Fab prim work. I don't think I could figure out what prims those are! These beauties are only $75L. Eolande? Can we get fat packs?.. How about just one big box full of all your items? Please?

You all should really come down and see the stuff I couldn't fit in my pic. Eolande REALLY knows how to torture those prims. Her flower petal textures are vibrant and realistic. She even has some fun retro tees, like Rainbow Brite and the Smurfs. AND a Lucky Chair AND a new BidBox AND a Mob Vendor. She's trying to GIVE the stuff away.
