.. roawenwood @ 2014 SL home and garden expo ..

September 14, 2014September 15, 2014 / Sunshine / 3 Comments

The 2014 SL Home and Garden Expo opens to the public in 2 days. I had the chance to visit the nine sims today and there is just so much to see. So many great designers/creators and the layout is very nice… easy to get around and easy to see everything. The exhibitions are all welcoming with so much newness. I think you will enjoy taking the time to visit the Expo when it opens on 9/16. You will have a couple of weeks as doesn’t close until 9/28. The SL Home and Garden Expo is a fundraising event for Relay For Life of Second Life.

I wanted to share some of that newness with you. Searlait Nitschke, the creator/designer behind Roawenwood, has created some rather awesome looking items. Roawenwood is one of the platinum sponsors of the Expo and is a long-time supporter of RFL events in SL. Searlait often designs items just to benefit RFL and this year is no exception. She has a set of shop buildings that are great and the single and double versions are on sale with 100% proceeds to RFL. The third in the set that is also available is a grande shop version which is nearly three wide but one shop. These would look great for village setting. The shops come with a great cobblestone mesh path that can be used to create a courtyard or pathway. I created a courtyard, open area with this cobblestone and placed Searlait’s fountain right in the center. This set makes me want to open shops!

Kyria Lowenstark of KL Couture put together some awesome outfits for .Penumbra.AW14 and I have the opportunity to share two of those great looks. A dress perfect for dancing the night away with a beautiful print and skirt that you can just feel sweep across your legs as you dance across the floor. A sexy suit that is fierce and strong…ready to go to that chic club and hang out at the bar with the gang.
