BJ's 5th Rez Day - Gift for YOU!

I just wanted to say thank-you for five crazy years in Second Life. This is just one of my first builds that I added some new features and textures too. Just alittle something from me! I'll leave it out until Friday the 10th*Hugs* to you all! Love ya! ~bj~
( right when you walk in the door to the store you can pick it up http://slurl.com/secondlife/Daphnis/123/62/46 )

Feb 1 Gypsy Wares & Hearth & Home are in Natures Hunt: When Roses Turn Black Part 2: Withered - these 2 gifts are using some really awesome mosaic textures, they match up beautifully.

Dark rumblings begin...Twisted... Spring 2012

Wonder what color of evil will the Twisted Cubes be this March?

Another year....

Well, it's my usual yearly musing time I suppose. Maybe this year I will finally become more effective with my social media postings. (Don't hold your breath... I was never good at writing in a diary either).
Anyways, I'm staying busy, I have been trying to learn to make clothing this past year. I expanded Hearth & Home to allow for some traditional Gypsy themed items (Gypsy Wares), and while creating those items, I made a few Gypsy dresses. I enjoyed it a lot! Vasha Martinek gave me some good advice and suggested I not limit myself to period clothing, soooooo out of that advice, the idea and even the name for the 3rd little shop was born, Urban Gypsy Clothiers. Both shops are quite small, and I'm "learning" still. But Vasha was the total inspiration for this lil' venture. Hopefully one of these days, I'll be out of the "newb" phase of clothes desiging. Hey this boot junkie has even made a few pairs of boots! So it will be interesting to see how the next year plays out.
I was trying to think of a way to rename the blog, and newsletters so that all 3 stores could be recognized. It is funny the acronym for them is HUG - Hearth & Home, Urban Gypsy Clothiers & Gypsy Wares... LOL  I found that rather amusing since I'm not the *Hugs* kind of girl. So I'll kick the idea around some more, hey maybe I'll bug Vasha for more inspiration!
God bless you all and I hope that 2012 is a very happy and prosperous one for you!
*Hugs*  BJ   (well, maybe I can get used to that! *giggles*)

They Start Out All Happy

*evil grin* So the Twisted Hunt is about to begin... I have been lucky to have been in every one since Vasha & Dysturbed dreamed their Twisted Dream. What fun these hunts are, and they are not for the faint of heart. Truly the hardest hunt in SL. Those that finish this hunt deserve the title of Survivor....the rest... well, they will rest in peace or maybe..... in pieces. Hearth & Home, Gypsy Wares & Urban Gypsy Clothiers have all made items for the Hunt. I have the main gift, and 5 (might be 6) bonus gifts, a few pity prizes in some decoys...and of course the new Gacha! I'm only sad that I will miss the first full week of the hunt while I sneak away for a little rest & relaxation. So before I go...I'll open the door to the insane asylum.....

Busy as a Bee!

Well August finds me busy as a bee! Getting ready for my 6th Twisted Hunt! I love the Twisted Group... crazy, nutty and just a bit perverted! Mi Familia! I have several gifts in mind for the hunt, ranging from clothing, home decor... and hopefully some funny things as well, depending on my scripting skills!
Steam: The Hunt 5 is also "gearing" up... ok bad pun....lol.... I made a fireplace for the last hunt, I'm thinking I will add something that matches that one for this one... haven't got that totally wrapped around my brain yet.
Last but not least Medieval Fantasy...  This is a new one for me, but anyone that know me and has been to Hearth & Home or Gypsy Wares, should know I do like Medieval! I have no clue what to make on this one. I did a little cottage for Midsummers Night Dream 2, I enjoyed that so much, I may see if I can't make something like that for this.... I just don't know... seems my mind is Twisted at the moment!

Back to Social Media

Well, gosh, I always seem to go on a hiatus from social media...then I come back... Much like those being's in Poltergeist.
