Splish Splash

Open up the closet and what do you see?   Old boots!   Yes....boots...and lots OF them, in all sizes and colors.  They belonged to my children but they bring back memories of my own childhood... of playing outside in rain storms with the neighborhood kids.  (Lightning?  NO!)  These storms exhibited nothing but rain and lots of it!  The street in front of my parent's house would become a huge playground for all of us and the immediate task at hand would be to kick the leaves over the storm drain preventing the water from escaping. We would play outside for hours, wallowing in the cold water and making sure each and every one of us was thoroughly SOAKED.  Then...somebody's mother would burst our balloon and beckon their child to call it a day and come inside. Great memories of good clean wholesome fun, but also the distinct nightmare of soaking wet feet and the beginnings of a cold the next day!   Rainboots.   MY memory!

Ahhh.....finally!   A use for all those old boots and a  unique one at that!   The Rainboots Planter comes filled with yellow and orange marigolds and can be mounted anywhere on a flat back surface such as a wall, gate or fence.    Only 7 LI, transfer/mod and can be found at Persnickity Mainstore (click HERE)  or on the Marketplace (click HERE) for only 75L.   Keep your memories close to you because there comes a time when that's all you'll have.

Whiffs of Spring

I can smell it in the air.   There are two seasons that have distinct smells when they are approaching. Fall has that crisp clean smell - it brings back memories of back-to-school shopping and homework! Spring on the other hand has a fresh, newly showered smell and feel. The days are brighter and the sparkling rain is a sign of flowers about to burst through the ground.  A sigh of relief after the long dark cold winter.  Let the planting begin as my body gravitates towards the great outdoors and out of the house!

A few new items at Persnickity to celebrate the beginning of spring/summer 2016!

Adorable!   The Vintage Tricycle Planter is so charming and will add such character to your outdoors! It comes with the flower filled bucket also.  It sells for 75L.

How about breakfast or afternoon tea at your new Wrought Iron Patio Set?   Has a 'bistro' feel to it which I adore.   The chairs have 7 sitting animations in them and are only 1 LI each!  The table is only 2 LI so you don't have to worry about your prim count on this one!   It sells for 50L.

I LOVE adding things to the garden.  Flowers are beautiful enough but these Flower Markers will add that extra 'oompf' announcing what's there.   You get 12 markers, 4 are pink, 4 are purple, and 4 are green.   There is a variety of words on them, such as Petunias, Roses, Lilies, Beauty, Grow!, etc. They sell for 50L and are copy/mod.

How about something new and fresh for the indoors too?!  Open up the windows, let the fresh air in, while your new Lacy Curtains adorn the windows.  They are texture changing so just touch for your choice of six different colors of the flowered lacy pattern.  LOVE these!  They sell for 50L and are copy/mod.

All items are available on Marketplace (click here) and in the mainstore (click here).  Now...on to spring cleaning.   Blah!   Love you all!  Pet

Love is In the Air

Love permeates life.   Even Second Life.   It's not too often that you meet someone in SL who hasn't 'fallen' for somebody along the way.   Everybody makes their own rules as to where it goes and what it means to them - some keep it in SL and others cross over into real life.   Either way, Valentine's Day is one day to show that special someone that you care.  I know it's cliche but it really isn't about the cost, but it IS the thought that counts.   Just reach out and tap them on the heart to say "Hey!  I'm thinking of you today"
