The Doorway into Autumn

Hey gang,

I’m here with Tara (aka Miss Tee, aka Chia pet, aka Chi, etc etc) to share with you some gorgeous Autumn decor for your home.  This week would have been Tara’s birthday if her real life self were still here and although I have been unable to find a shih tzu companion in world that looks like her (she was a black and white shih tzu, and I kept her hair cute and short, as she was a bit of a tomboy!), I try to get as close as I can and this little one from Rezz Room is very cute.  😉  (My Golden Animesh Sumner is also based on a real life furbaby of mine I had many moons ago).

But I digress, I am here to speak of the glories of autumn decor, it’s just that she is on my mind this week, September is a difficult month for me, I lost Sumner on the 29th of August, my dad on the 18th and my Mom on the 29th.(not the same year of course)  So with them all lumped together and my little Tee’s birthday in the mix, it’s in the forefront of my mind lately.

Let’s talk about Autumn!  Shanti always has some goodies for free for everyone and this time of year is no exception.  Not only is there a free box of autumn themed goodies (including the rug here and several other items!) but there is also the fireplace behind me for 55L, along with the cute sunflower tapestry, which I love for only 45L but brand new this year is the Ready for Autumn Golden who is only 1L!  I’ve taken a closer-up photo below to show you the little lights so cozy on the fireplace and on our autumn wreath wearing handsome pup as well!  It’s all got a soft lovely glow that will bring a cozy atmosphere to those chilly autumn nights coming up!
No group required for any of these goodies.

Don’t forget all clothing at Shanti is 75L and under, clothing for mesh bodies is on the right and for classic and BOM, on the left.  Though some of the mesh bodies contain classic clothing, just check the vendors for that.  😉

Also, my cute boots are a free group gift from Promagic, they have a load of group gifts and their group is free to join (ok its a whole ROOM of group gifts).

I’m still hoping summer will come back because this girl is not a fan of the cold.  The only *good* thing is that I get to whip out my collection of fingerless gloves that I love to wear.  😉  Of course with covid, I’ve been reduced to wearing them at home, but that’s ok, my hands are cold all winter.  😉 (as if I need an excuse to wear them!)

CMORE *~*HopScotch*~* in your UF Creation

It is cold and rainy where I live and I am READY for Spring to arrive.  Since I can’t push it along any quicker, I decided to “think spring” and do a little rainy retail therapy.

I found this cute .::UF Creation::. Dress Summer and HUD on the Marketplace for an absolute steal at 20L! Not only is it versatile enough to be worn as a dress or top over leggings…but the HUD comes with three pattern choices…so you get to style it in so many ways…ALL for just pennies!  Since it is still a bit cool, I decided to use the dress as a top over these cute laced trimmed jersey leggings, from CMORE Design; also scored from the Marketplace for just 10L. The leggings come in a multi-color pack (non-mesh)…making them another amazing bargain for the price.

If you’d like to finish off your Spring or Summer ensemble with an adorable pair of shoes, RUN over to *~*HopScotch*~*…right now you can buy these fun Walk on Flowers flipflops, previously featured by Serena in her “Flowers and Candy” post, in either blue or yellow for only 75L; a HUGE bargain from the normal 250L!  But HURRY because these flipflops will go back to their normal price as of midnight tonight.  *Please note that these sandals are Slink compatible and the feet are NOT included.

While you are at *~*HopScotch*~*, be sure to check out the reception area to snag this super cute Sunflower Necklace as a FREE Gift to everyone…no group join required. *also previously shown by Serena in her “Flowers and Candy” post.

Happy Spring Shopping!
