I almost missed out on telling all you Fabulous readers about the Sn@tch 10th Anniversary Sale & Specials! It ends July 19th, so you still have a couple of days, and you don’t want to miss out! In addition to lots of extra ways to win free clothes, almost everything in the store (this does not include new releases, marketplace, or gift cards) is 50 – 75% off!
A Lucky, Unlucky Dip!
Extra prize winning machines have been set out at Sn@tch for this special week, including an Unlucky Dip… except that it’s lucky! It gives out a prize every single time!
I took a dive and came up with a freeSn@tch Skybox of Evil! This skybox is a Gothic skybox and is full-size and simply amazing. It even included decorating accessories such as a bed, candelabras, rugs, and a plant. The skybox itself was 81 prim, but for such a roomy and well textured skybox, that’s not bad! I took my picture in front of the window of the skybox… which was my favorite part!
New Lucky Letters!
Our wonderful Sn@tch creator has set out new Lucky Letter Board prizes and you can win lots of great prizes for free if your letter comes up! I won the Atom Bomb Baby Tank top for free when my letter came up! It comes in all the standard sizes, but I love that it is a fatpack of colors! You’ll have colors to match all your moods for free!
Matching pants!
Have you forgotten Sn@tch‘s new Freebie and Cheapie area? I had! I took a peak over there and snatched up these free Raji Floral leggings. These are mesh and come in all the standard sizes and for 0L I was able to get them in a fat-pack of colors. They matched my new free tank top too! I’m all set!

Hi there Fabulous Folks! I am switching things up today and am showing you some décor items instead of clothing. I came across a few cute things this weekend that I thought you all might like to hear about. Perhaps you’ll find something you like to spruce up your home in Second Life!
Come On In!
The build you see in my photo is Ranger Rick’s Office which is part of The Hive’s Arcade Gacha offering at 50L per play. To the side of the doorsteps you’ll find a couple of items made by The Ruddy Duck Co. (one of them a dollarbie!), and on the steps a group gift by JIAN and Zen Creations which are both free to join.
This adorable item is just 2 prims to rez and includes the sleeping kittens inside the bed. Both kittens are texture change as well as the bed and as it is copy, you can rez out as many as you like. You can find this as a free group giftat JIAN with a free group join.
The Cape Cod Candles are the latest group gift at Zen Creations. This décor piece is 7 prims and is copy/mod so that you are able rez as many as you like and edit the colour and size to your liking. The Zen Creations group is free to join.
The Ruddy Duck Company:
The Ruddy Duck Co. is a fairly new shop in Second Life and has some really nice outdoor décor items available in their marketplace store including a 1L item. In my photos you’ll find the following…
Build – The Hive Ranger Rick’s Office (50L per play @ The Arcade Gacha) Cat Bed – JIAN Kitty Shark Bed (free group gift / 0L / free to join) Candles – Zen Creations Cape Cod Candles (free group gift / 0L / free to join) Flower Bucket – The Ruddy Duck Co. Pink Hibiscus Bucket Gift (1L / marketplace) Fence – The Ruddy Duck Co. Rustic Fence w/ Roses (marketplace)
Upon my return, I set down some rules to live by. How have I done with that list? Some I’ve stuck to, a few have been amended and a couple have been thrown completely out the window. I can sometimes still be a Grumpy Cat, but the rules behind me are simple and easy to live by. The Art Pallet by ::cute as f*ck::: is part of the Fresh Start Hunt that ends Sunday February 12th, so there is still time to find this $1L hunt gift.
Love me some graffiti…
Orchid has a new group gift out for the guys. The Marcello Graffiti Shirt is a FREE (pay $1L Get $1L returned) group gift to members. The Orchid group does cost $1L to join. I paired it with the FM Dark Blue Jeans from Wilson’s Designs, part of the hunt gift from the Love Hunt.( I’ll show the complete outfit later, as the shirt has been eaten by the dreaded inventory bug that has seemed to have hit me.) The Love Hunt has lots of $1L hunt gifts. You should check it out.
The power of Thor…
I was lucky enough to hop online just as Love was completing her photo shoot (she said she was finished modeling granny panties?!? HERE) and could use her backdrop if I wanted. The Lazy Weekend Skybox is featured at The Cosmopolitan Sales Room. The matching Lazy Weekend Decor can be picked up by playing the gacha for $50L per pull.
Carson is wearing…
Shirt: Orchid – Marcelo Graffiti Shirt (free group gift / $0L /$1L to join)
Pants: Wilson’s Designs – FM – Dark blue Jeans (Love Hunt – $1L)
Footwear: Vale Koer – Vasiforms with Color Change HUD (FREE group gift / 0L / free to join)
Mesh Body: ADAM – Male Mesh Body
Hair: no.match – No Cloud
The holiday grind has not gotten to me yet… in fact today I’m enjoying it! Gothmas style! Though I admit, I did wake up early to make pancakes. Does it count as Gothic if I made the pancakes in the shape of little bats and “colored” them with Nutella to get them to look right? I know my daughter was certainly thrilled!
Speaking of the holiday grind… the Radio Grind has everything you need for a Gothmas! Or just for a Gothic day… or steampunk (it could qualify for that with the right decor). Either way, I stopped by the Cart Sale again, and made away like a banshee!
The Radio Grind has me dressed up in style in this Storypunk Wonderland Red dress. It is mesh with lots of sizing choices to fit your avatar… and at only 10L for such fabulous details? I fell in love!
If red isn’t your thing, don’t worry! This same gorgeously detailed dress was at the cart in two other colors for the same low price, one of which was a soft floral blue, pretty enough for the spring days to come.
So it’s the holiday. Merry Gothmas and Happy Holidays (all of them) and good cheer for the New Year! Are you loving my set? Me too! Would you believe that this AMAZING skybox is only 10L at the Radio Grind cart at the Cart Wash Sale?!
The skull throne and curtain were included details from Radio Grind skybox, though I did toss down a few things of my own for this picture. You can get the Glyphic Circle by Nocturne Creations from the Marketplace for only 50L. It is animated and scripted to turn, and only 3 prim when you set it down.
I also set George out again. He joined me once before in a long ago post. My hellpup is a sweet Gacha prize you can get in store from Sweet Thing. It is just a touch over our 75L limit, but I had to share him with you! For just 80L per spin you can get a chance at this cute pup — either in holdable or the “plop” option shown. And he comes in lots of classic Gothic styles!
Last, but certainly not least, I hope you are still making all of your advent stops! Many stores are finishing off with grand finales today! My lovely little Kiss Me Holly stick pin is by Chop Zuey and is FREE with your group tag (350L to join). This advent is generous indeed in that there are 12 days of group only gifts (the group is 350L to join) with a men’s side and women’s side (so 24 gifts total there alone) PLUS an additional completely FREEadvent with 12 days of FREEgifts too! And the advents for this store are open the full time so if you miss a day you can still get all the gifts. Be sure to pick them all up before they are gone!

Good afternoon Fabulous Readers! I have to start my post off by warning you that you will probably want to grab a coffee or make sure you are comfy in your chair because this is a looooong post! I usually try to keep my posts short and sweet, but when I opened the rest of The Arcade Gacha gifts that I picked up under the tree I found that there was a ton of décor and I decided to put a little set together. I was so happy with how it turned out that I called Astrid over to snap a photo with me! Aside from the décor items that I will mention shortly, I wanted to also tell you about a couple things Astrid and I are wearing. Astrid’s red hot little number is called Eclipse Mini and can be found, priced at 10L for the Christmas on 34th Street Event. My sparkly black Holiday Cocktail Dress is not only fab for your upcoming holiday events, but makes for a great date night dress any time of the year. This dress is by [RUBY] and can be picked up for FREE in the KittycatS Advent Calendar! Instead of tossing on a necklace as I usually would, I decided to wear some ink instead! I don’t normally wear a lot of ink, but when I came across the Creed Tattoo by White Widow as a FREE Peace on Earth Hunt Prize, I knew it would be hot with a black dress! This tattoo works with system bodies and comes with a ton of different appliers for mesh bodies. Ok! Now onto the décor! I started off my little holiday room with the Pixel Mode Remington Chaise and Fireplace which are 50L per play at The Arcade Gacha. I rezzed a copy of my favourite Christmas Tree by LAQ Décor and then decorated with ALL FREE gifts from under the tree at Arcade Gacha (which is much easier to get into now, in case you are wondering!)
Seats – Ariskea Season of Giving – These come in a pack of two and make great little tables.
Eggnog Tray – Baclava Eggnog Tray – Allows you to turn the steam on and off.
Tea – Tres Blah Cozy Winter Teacup – Just one little prim and is super cute with lemon.
Puppy in Box – Xin What’s In The Box – A holiday box with a pup hiding inside.
Layered Cake – Dust Bunny Berry Cake – Layered berry cake and cream on a wooden plate.
Art – Garbaggio All I Want For Christmas Is Shoes – comes in both red and white and is resizable.
Fireplace Décor 1 – D-LAB + LIZAIL Santa Gift – a little Santa!
Fireplace Décor 2 – DRD Arcade Gift Miniature Bastion – A large snowglobe that actually snows.
Fireplace Décor 3 – r(s)w The Little Drummer – Manny – A wooden drummer boy.
Fireplace Décor 4 – Madpea Soldier Follower – I am using this as décor, but it is actually a Soldier that follows you as you walk! Whew, if you are still here… thanks for sticking with me Fab Readers.
ps. Thank you to Astrid too, for making my house 10 degrees hotter!
The Wash Cart Sale which runs til 9/16 has more than just clothes, you can find home decor items too!
The Wood Works Cart has several home decor items to spruce up your house all for 10L each. This quaint rustic log bench and plants were just the thing to fit right into my little cabin but could just as easily work in another style home. The bench is 6 prims and the plants are 2 prims each. The bench includes several His & Hers animations. I found the Shabby Rose Wall Art on Marketplace for FREE to add the finishing touch.
Ladders don’t have to be functional. Lean this 1 prim Rose Ladder anywhere for a touch of romance. My FREE mesh dress is another good way to add a touch of romance to your life. You can pick it up at The Fantasy Collective (TFC), its their FREE GG with FREE group join. The Fantasy Collective runs til 9/16.
The cute mini kimono I am wearing is FREE on the Living like japan hunt from Hapi*Rabi. You are looking for a little pink origami bird and this store has been kind enough to put it right in plain site. While super easy to find you only have til the 15th so don’t delay.
This lovely Chinese Court costume which includes the fan and head dress are FREE from JOMO on their lucky letter boards which does require you joining their FREE group. The earrings are from Sigma JewelsFREE and another Living Like Japan hunt item (LLJH). Again an easy to find pink origami birds, simply follow the hints at the LLJH site, remember you only have til the 15th.
All of the very well detailed decor items and building in my pics today come from the JOMO Shops and they are all FREE. A bonus, all the items I am showing are low in prims. There are so many FREE gifts throughout the shops on the sim you could be there an hour picking them up. I am featuring Asian items today but there are several non Asian FREEBIES as well. There are decor items, builds, clothes, costumes, skins and weapons. With so many choices there has to be something to tickle both girls and guys fancy so its well worth a trip over to JOMO to have a look around, remember there are FREE items to be found in all the shops with the bulk of them being in the FREE shop. If you want to score a few more gifts you can join theFREE group and play the lucky letter boards found in the room containing all FREEBIES. If you look at the ground as you arrive you will see an arrow pointing you to “buildings” if you take that path the freebie room is the 1st shop on your right, you will see the jars from picture 1 outside the shop.
Hello Fabulouses! If you are in the market for a new little house, you should check out the free gift that Greymoon Creations is offering at the landing point of their shop. I was able to pick up the C-Side Home as shown in the photo for free! I didn’t even have to join the group – although I did anyways (free to join) – because they have a group mini mania board as well with another build!
The C-Side House is 17/20 in size and has a land impact of 55 prims. It features a livingroom area with fireplace, lots of windows and a separate bedroom with a door. It is a very well made little home for your plot of land.
There are actually several gifts available including a waffle house lol, so flip through the option board to see all of them.
************
Hi there Fabulouses! I did myself a little hunting last night and found that Hapi*Rabi has an adorable mesh Susy Dress cleverly hidden inside a For Her Hunt icon. For just 1L I was able to pick up this sweet off the shoulder, floral printed dress! You can find this same dress in lavender inside a group lucky board (50L to join) as well if you prefer purple over pink.
It was just sheer luck that the Heart Bag that is the latest free group gift at C’est La Vie had a pink inside the texture change HUD that matched perfectly with this dress! The C’est La Vie group is free to join. Check out their lucky board too!
The decorative items in my photo today are all pieces from the Dust Bunny My Summer Retreat Set currently being offered at the June round of The Arcade Gacha for 50L per play. I was really hoping to get that fancy house boat, but was pleased with the Daisy Shack just the same! Maybe I’ll go back and try again … Mowahh ahaa ha ahaaa
Enjoy your day and thanks for reading!
