White Table of Hors'dourves only 24 Prim

This rezzer is awesome for having the look and feel of a feast with only 24 prims taken from your land tab. So a large number will appear beside your name (but only 24 prim of your land prims will be counted). The other prims are temporary and are not counted against your land prim count.

Rez the table in the area you want it to be, when you move it - the food will take a few minutes to follow it - but in a minute or so - the food should be on top of the table

I have created a plate - which you can stack on top of the other plates - or anywhere else - it has some floating text. If your guests touch the plate it randomly gives out slices and bits of all the food. There is a spoon, fork and a number of slices of pie, cake, cookies strawberries grapes chocolate and soup. The plates have animations in them.

Plates have japanese and english floating touch me text

Some foods are meant to be eaten with forks, some with spoons, some with no utensils. Usually the avatar is holding a plate in one hand and food, or utensil in the other.

The table you see rezzed at shabby Chic - is exaclty how the table should look.. You can see it in Brauni at the christmas bazaar.

Be patient - and make sure you have scripts enabled on the land you want to put it on.

Be aware than more than one table can cause lag.

Shabby Chic Table Rezzer - hors'dourves and treats


Shabby Chic Table Rezzer
Originally uploaded by Shabby Chics
The scripting is good to go on the table - it rezzes in any direction - and now comes in red and white. Look at the Shabby Chic Christmas Bazaar in Brauni - both tables are rezzed and you can see the goodies all spread out over the table.

This table takes only 24 prim from your land tab - so if you have limited prim - but want to offer a large choice of foods - this is the table for you.

A separate prim is placed on the plates - if your guests touch the plate they can receive lots of goodies. Goodies come with animations.

If you purchased a table earlier - please send me a notecard with your transaction information - I will send you the new table that rotates in any direction.

Free Boot - at the Shabby Chic Christmas Bazaar

Somebody dropped their gold coins at the Shabby Chic Bazaar. They are not hidden - just dropped. Walk the bazaar and find the five coins dropped on the ground in the Christms Bazaar.

They are not under trees or behind things - they are out in plain sight - you just have to walk around and find them. Its a fun hunt - for a cute pair of Christmas boots! Just follow the link. The first coin is right by the tp (hint - by the sign) - so you know what your looking for right off the bat!.

Shabby Chic Parisa with Boots and an Apple Basket

Just Released at Shabby Chic is a gorgeous gown made with a rich cranberry brocade and golden silk. It is accented with laces and ruffles, gold buttons and bows. The back of the dress has a golden bustle.

The dress is made for adults - but has a resizer for just the right fit in the skirt, collar and arms.

High heeled leather boots also come with the outfit and the lower portion has a resizer.

Parisa also comes with a basket of apples which your avatar will hold with the animation built into the basket.

So enjoy Parisa - she's loaded with extras and for a very short time is only 350L .

Shabby Chic Holiday Hors d'eourves Rezz Table

This table comes with everything on it - just put it down - and the whole thing rezzes - no messing about.

It takes less than 30 prim from your land tab. I have included an hors d'oeurve giver which can be put right on top of the plates. It will give your guests samples on touch of all the items.

All items come with animations. There is a notecard next to the rezzed table in the Shabby Chic Sim. Look for the white house with garland in front.

This table likes to be placed east west - you can attempt to make the rez rotate - but I have not had any luck.

There is approximately 800 prim temporary rezzed which gives the appearance of a huge feast - and its awesome - especially if you do not have much land - and want more bang for your buck.

Shabby Chic Holiday Hors d'oeurves

I have created a bunch of foods for the holidays. All of the foods give out slices and utensils if needed so that guests can enjoy a taste. All of the samples come with nice animations that emulate eating of that item.

Prim size is listed in the description of the general tab in the edit menu - so click on the item - and you should be able to see the prims size.

Shabby Chic Christmas Bazaar 2008

The Shabby Chic Christmas Bazaar officially opens today. Designers from all over Second Life have put their Christmas Products out in one place for you to see. You can find Christmas Clothing, Jewelry, Home Decor, Lights, Garlands, Wreathes in a fun environment. Many of the Christmas Markets will not have some of these designers. I went searching not only for mainstream Christmas Designers, but some unknowns, and some unique designers. There are a few surprises - so make sure you take a peek in every shop!

Its also the official first event of our new area. Most of the land will be turned into an events area after the Bazaar for classes and shows. I am lucky enough to have Zinnia Zauber, a friend and designer bringing her special brand of inspiration to the new area after Christmas.

So Please stop by, and support the merchants of SL - if you like their things - you can teleport to their main store.


Teleport to the Christmas Bazaar Now
