Shabby Chic Two Horse Hayride Wagin

This is a great wagon. Instructions on the inside. It has four seats in the hayride, and one seat for the driver. You can set the sitting balls to show (so your guests know where to click easier) or if your just roaming through town, you can hide them with a simple command.

The wheels on the wagon turn and rotate when you do. The horses are not animated, but the wagon does move.

Its priced so anyone can afford to have a double hitched horse wagon. You can find it in the Christmas area!

Transferrable if you want to send it as a gift!

Follow the slurl to the main store.

You'll arrive at the main landing spot - just click the teleport - and choose Holiday!

Shabby Chic Banquet on a solid wood table.

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

It takes 25 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 - there are 15 different desserts with animations your guests can receive - it also gives utensils.

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.

Its great if you want a lot of look for very little prim! Comes with chocolate cake, apple pie, soup, cupcakes, doughnuts, bagels, muffins, angel food cake, strawberries, Christmas cookies, grapes, chocolates, cheesecake.

Experimentation with SL 3.0 Beta Lighting

was playing with the lighting in the SL Beta 3 and took this photo. I"m not sure why the atmospheric lighting produces this effect. It was kind of cool for a photo effect, and perhaps it did this because I was inside.

If you haven't downloaded the beta - I recommend it. lately its been horrid as far as slowness/restarts - but the bonus's cannot be matched!

HTML on a prim - show someone your flikr, facebook, blog on a prim (takes a moment, no land rights - or fancy scripting).

Megaprims (basically make a prim just about any dimension you want (yup that's right)!

Shabby Chic Trapper Style Items

Whittle: Sit down on this stool and your avatar will receive a piece of wood and a knife. When you wear them both, your avatar will begin to whittle, and wood chips will float out.

When you 'sit' on this table your avatar will be given a knife. Wear the knife and you will see your avatar butchering meat.

Butcher: When you are done butchering, all you need to type is /9 hide into the local chat, and all the meat will disappear (as if you were done butchering and emptied your barrel).

Saw: Sit on this Fallen log and you will be given a saw. Wear the saw and you will notice your avatar is sawing the tree

Dry your clothes: Sit on the basket and your avatar will be given a mens shirt. Wear the shirt, and it will appear that your avatar has removed it from the basket and is putting it up on the clothes line to dry.

Once she's done she'll go back into the basket for more. Feel free to try it out in the Trapper section at Shabby Chic.

Wash your clothes: Sit on the stool and your avatar will be given a shirt and a sudsy scrub brush. Your avatar will wash clothing in the water, which is scripted to swirl

Chicken Coop: This chicken coop has a door that opens on touch, one of the chickens is roosting up in the coop. It comes with a mod/copy chicken, so you can make as many chickens as you want, put them in various positions, or even add scripts to them so they move.

This is a really versatile start - works well just as is - or you have the option to do other things to it.

Barrels: These wooden barrels could be for wine or beer or just spare rain barrels. They are all nicely stacked in a pile - and look great beside your house - a really nice looking addition - low prim

Firewood: This stack of firewood loos nice and authentic, comes with chopping block and ax. Looks great sitting next to the house, textures are photorealistic.

Drying Fish: Several rows of fish are drying on this rack over a nice smoldering fire.

Fire is scripted with some crackling sounds, and smoke comes from the fire as the low flames flicker.

Available at the Shabby Chic Vintage Emporium. Once you arrive - TELEPORT to the TRAPPER area.

Shabby Chic Lady Syleena Medieval Gown

This custom gown comes with a lovely flexi skirt with vintage print, golden embroidered accents, and a teal satin underskirt with a lace slip peeking through the bottom.

The leather belt knots around the front of the gown and holds a rabbit fur and sword. There is a second scripted sword which when worn on the right hand puts the avatar in a fighting stance. If the avatar touches in front of it, it stabs, lunges and jabs and swirls complete with sound effects.

The gown has prim sleeves and a glitch skirt. There is also a cape with a removable hood. The cape is made of black velvet and lined with gold silk.

The head dress is cranberry velvet with gold embroidery. It has a fabric that floats down the back of the hair which you can choose to make invisible just by touching it, or show it. When you touch it, a menu pops down and allows you to choose whether the fabric will show.

Gown has great versatility and uniqueness - I'm so proud to offer this gown!

Shabby Chic Lady Syleena Medieval Gown

I attended a medieval festival and a woman was wearing this dress. She was a vintage clothing creator in the physical world. I told her I created vintage clothing in Second life, and asked if I could create her gown for my store. I told her I would name the gown after her, and give her a copy.

It doesn't do her dress justice - she had fabulous artistry. But it was definitely fun to create this gown!

Shabby Chic Lady Syleena Medieval Gown with Cape

This medieval gown and cape set with all the fixins is great for your medieval role play.

Comes with scripted sword, that you can fight with, or a second sword that fits on your belt. Don't miss this great dress!
