Nope! The Christmas Tree Ain’t Going Down Yet!

I am one of those people who keeps their Christmas decorations out at least another month after Christmas has passed. Yes, one of those people. I just can’t accept that the holiday fun is over! Well, let’s pretend it’s not over yet, as I have several free and 1 L wonderful presents to share with you today! Let’s open up those gifts!

Be Unique

EscalateD is known for their unique hairstyles! They are so creative and offer us so many wonderful gifts. EscalateD currently has a 500L store credit gift available at their store. The free store credit is available for everyone until January 24th, and this a gift that was left-over from the Christmas season. You just need to click the free store credit board in front of the group lounge in the middle of the store. I am fashioning one of EscalateD‘s beautiful hairstyles, Genova, which you could purchase with your free credit (or any other hairstyle of your choice in the store). I paired this hairstyle with one of their latest VIP group gifts, which is a Xmas hair colour hud. EscalateD VIP is 99L to join and it gives you access to many group gifts and lucky and mini-mania boards.

Another Winter Sweater…Dress

This lovely sweater dress is perfect for wearing indoors (which I have a feeling you are doing a lot of this winter), or you could wear some leggings under it if you dare to venture outside. This lovely dress comes in several colours which you can change via a hud and it only costs 1 Linden. This is a hunt prize at Ari Pari for the Let It Snow Hunt. The hint is, “How much is that snowman in the window?!”. The hunt ends on January 31st.

Free Group Join at LuluB!

I am wearing the Rainbow Bae lipgloss, which is a free group gift at LuluB. The group is currently free to join. Just check the group notices to grab these cute lip glosses in a few different shades. The LuluB group is currently free to join, and they also have a 500L store credit gift to grab while you are there.

Free poses at An Lar

An Làr has a tonne of poses out for free at their Marketplace store! Use this link to find all their free poses and this link to find the specific pose I am showing off today. There are both singles and couples poses available. These poses are really awesome to use to take photos! Thank you to Fab Free reader and my friend Orion Swansong for giving me the tip about these great poses!

Enjoy, Fab Free!

Peace and Quiet

Merry Christmas Fab Free! If anyone needs me, this is where I’ll be spending the remainder of my Christmas Day, and possibly the entire weekend. If you’re feeling the need for a little respite from the holiday cheer, this is the post for you. Keep reading to find out how to get this beautiful cozy corner nook, the geometric wall shelves, and the adorable rabbit Christmas tree décor all for free.

Fapple

I want to start by telling you ahead of time that Fapple is a whimsical BDSM themed shop. Yes, you read that right. That said, this “Meditation Corner” gift is not, I repeat not at their main store. It is a free group gift for the Center for Mindfulness and their corresponding group. To get this lovely gift which includes the corner tent with pillows, and matching rug you’ll need to go to the Center for Mindfulness and join their free group. I’ll link that below. This cute setting has PG single and couples poses.

Crate

Next up, Crate opened up a new shop location and has a free gift to celebrate! This geometric shaped wall shelf with plants and books is their free gift. All you need to do is join the free Crate group and click the gift vendor to get your copy. Can I just say how much I love Second Life plants? Absolutely no care needed. lol

Ari-Pari

So this little (I resized mine) Christmas tree decoration with the dancing rabbits is something I just couldn’t pass up. Even as Christmas Day comes slowly to an end, those bunnies needed a place in my home. Luckily they are a free gift at Ari-Pari. You’ll find them waiting for you over by the Advent gifts at Ari-Pari. The group is also free to join.

Rudolph and Snow Bunnies

Christmas is the time for cute things and cuddly animals. I absolutely loved this bunny snowman I found at Paper. Sparrow. The lovely Bunnie Francis must have put it out! I also am in love with this cute reindeer plushie and the outfit I have on. Read below for more details!

Get spoiled by Neve at the Shop and Hop

Neve has eleven gifts out at the shop and hop! What a great offer! They are handing out all of their past Christmas gifts in one big bundle in their booth at the Shop and Hop. I hope you enjoy them! I am wearing the Lumos scarf, which is their newest gift this year.

The rest of the getup…

I have a lot of FREE and under 75 L deals stuffed in this adorable outfit today so I will lay the details out in a list for you so that it is easier to read! Here it is:

• The beautiful sweater dress costs only 1 tiny linden at Ari-Pari on the Joyeux Noel Hunt. It comes in a variety of colours which you can change using a hud. The hint for this prize is: “Santa has a gift just for you”. This hunt ends on December 31st so you have some time to check it out!
• The hat is a free advent gift at Ari-Pari. It comes in a variety of colours to match all of your holiday outfits. You can grab all of their past advent gifts on their advent calendar for free at the main store here!
• The ADORABLE Rudolph plushie is from an exclusive Ari-Pari gacha at The Gacha Life. The Gacha Life event ends on December 31st, so make sure you snatch up the gifts there while you still can.

Chilly

It’s cold outside! I’m chilly and had to run out of my family event to get some alone time. Sometimes these holiday events are overwhelming and you just need to take a breather. They are a good excuse to dress up though. 

Gotcha, Gacha

The Elegant Swirls Gacha by Ari Pari is just amazing, and it is currently exclusive at the 4 Seasons event December round. At 50 L per pull you can win the heels, top, or skirt I have on in various colours. I love this outfit. Ari Pari has a free gift out at the 4 Seasons December round as well, so go check it out!

More Floaties and a Free 500 L Store Credit!

I am so into these floaties this year. This time, I am showing off some adorable snowman floaties that hang around your head. So cute. I love these guys! You can get them for free at the EscalateD booth at the Shop and Hop. The Winter Shop and Hop is huge and it’s open until January 3rd! Enjoy all the free gifts there! In addition to these adorable snowmen, EscalateD is also gifting everyone 500 L in store credit at their booth. I ran over to the main store and grabbed this hairstyle Noel with my credit, which I’ve been eyeing for a while. This hair includes a style hud, 2 colour huds, and the hat. It’s perfect for Christmas. Enjoy this amazing free credit gift, Fab Free, and all the other wonderful gifts at the Shop & Hop!

Out with the Reindeers

Hey Fab Free! How’s your holiday season going? Christmas on SL is the best, and I am loving all the gifts and advent prizes so far! We are spoiled. Today I am hanging out with the reindeers and I am going to show you some wonderful free and 1L gifts from various hunts around the grid so far. Come check out these awesome finds!

Cozy Sweater & Slippers

The first stop today is Ari Pari! What a great shop this is, and they have some wonderful Christmas hunt items out. Like all of their hunt items, this sweater comes with a colour change hud. I like the cute little white Christmas trees on it. It is only 1 L on the Candy Christmas Hunt 4. 

Under the Snowflakes

These really cute and animated snowflakes are free on the Peace on Earth Hunt. This is the prize from EscalateD, one of my favourite hair stores. These are really cute and I love how they are animated. They rotate around your head. You can wear 1, 2 or 3 of them at a time. 

Another hunt prize at EscalateD are these awesome winter horns. They are only 1 L on the Grumpy Santa Hunt 4. They can be changed to many colours and they are beautiful- much needed for any horns or fantasy lovers out there. 

Magika is Free! 

Finally, I wanted to mention something I stumbled upon a couple weeks ago which appears to still be going on. Magika‘s group is currently free to join. I grabbed their group gift hair, called “Plenty”, for only 1 Linden with the group tag on. I love this hairstyle. I also grabbed the other group gifts and some of the group-only sales that range from 50-85 L per hair. 

Thanks for reading, Fab Free!

Future Christmas Trees and Hot Chocolate

Good evening, FabFree! It’s finally here! Christmas time! I love this time of year. I love everything about it: the weather and snow, the presents, the cooking! ALL of it. And it starts for me and my family on December 1. I missed my date a bit this year as I was having some real life computer issues ( hopefully resolved) So now I gotta make up for lost time. So… brace yourselves!

Fist on my list is this super cute sweater and skirt combo from Ari Pari. This is the ‘Clara’ outfit and you can pick it up for just 3 measly little Lindens since it part of the Candy Cane Hunt. You get a lot for your Lindens too. In the prize you get the sweater and skirt combo, the sweet Santa hat, and a HUD for three cute color choices and a color coordinating modesty patch. Each piece can be colored separately if you feel like mixing and matching.  It’s the perfect little something to go pick out a tree in.. dontcha think?

Fabulous Finds 12.01.20 Edition

25L Each on the Up To Snow Good Hunt by Ari-Pari

Lilith

Hey Fab Free! Today I will be talking about the Call of Lovecraft event and hunt. The event ends on November 20th, so you have some time to check it out! The sim reminds me of the new series on HBO Lovecraft Country– as you can see by the octopus tentacles in the background of my picture I took at the event. How creepy and supernatural!

Call of Lovecraft Hunt

The main attraction of Call of Lovecraft is the hunt going on at the sim where many designers have put out hunt prizes. The hunt object you are looking for and the hunt keys can be found on Kaleidoscope Island’s website.

Generally, each hunt item costs 25 Linden per piece. I am wearing one of the hunt prize by Ari-Pari, which are a series of “Ancient Masks”. I am wearing Prize #1 in red to match my outfit.

More gifts!

There are also a bunch of free gifts at the event, which don’t require a group join. Simply walk around in the circle near the front of the event and grab all the gifts the designers have set out for 0 L. The necklace I am wearing is one of these free gifts, the Lilith necklace by Ari-Pari. This necklace is so elegant. I love the pretty black pendant; this is a gorgeous piece with lots of detail.

 

And Gachas!

As you go around the circle of gifts, you can also play gachas by different designers. My dress and heels come from Ari-Pari’s Lilitch Gacha, which costs 50L per pull to play. I absolutely LOVE the Lilith outfit- I must say it is one of my favourites I have ever found in Second Life. I love Victorian wallpaper prints and elegant clothing, so if you are into that this is truly the perfect gacha for you.

Sizes Included (dress):

• Belleza Freya, Venus & Isis
• Maitreya Lara
• Slink Physique & Hourglass

Sizes Included (shoes):

• Maitreya
• Belleza
• Slink

 

Enjoy the event, Fab Free!

Camping On Hallow’s Eve

This is my last Halloween post, which I am sad about. But I had fun this year! There’s so many amazing things around the grid this year so I hope that you enjoyed all the awesome free things we showed you on Fab Free this month! I’m sure there’s even more to come from our fabulous team of bloggers. ❤️

Today I am preparing for my Hallow’s eve camping trip that starts tonight! There’s going to be lots of ghost stories, campfires and fun with my friends on the night before Halloween!

Let’s dig in to the freebies and deals I am showing off today.

More Gifts at Lovel

Thanks to this amazing post by Pru earlier this month, I was introduced to the store Lovel. In addition to the lovely blue hoodie gift featured in Pru’s post, Lovel has generously set out two additional free gifts which you can get by joining their free group. The group gifts are the Millena hoodie in black and a matching black bodysuit that can be worn under it. I chose to wear some jeans over the bodysuit (which fit snuggly) to cover up, but you could wear this sexy suit all on its own.

Parting Halloween fun…

The last two gifts I want to share are these adorable fuzzy slippers and the amazing glowing pumpkin, cross, and fence hairdo.

The cozy slippers, which come in a striped pattern in both orange and purple, are only 10 Linden at Mad Circus 6. These slippers can be found in the Ari-Pari booth at the event.

The hair is a free gift from EscalateD at Trick or Treat Lane until November 1st. To get the gifts, you just need to search each booth to find the gift bag which contains a free prize. Trick or Treat Lane is one of my favourite events of the year because it’s a mix of hunting and freebie shopping.

Happy Halloween, Fab Free!
