Christmas Trees and More


As we see with all the Winter and Christmas places and events in Second Life there is not me who has much fun in decorating for the Holiday Season. Eliza Wierwight created as every year a range of most enchanting trees.


This year she runs a charity event for the Holiday season in favor of the "Save Elephant Foundation". The Elephant Topiary costs 499 Linden Dollar and is trans. 54 topiary are saving one elephant in real life. My friend Dividni Shostakovich wrote a great blog post on that which you should read: http://dividni.blogspot.de/2013/12/an-artist-with-cause.html

Modern Trees for the Virtual Christmas


Mandel Solano created trees with soft floating animated textures. This is not only beautiful, it is modern, hardly possible in real life and therefore much more adequate for a virtual Christmas decoration. The trees are 100 Linden each. In case of interest please contact Mandel Solano.


The floating bulbs particles are a Xmas gift by Venus Adored. Grab them in her particle shop.

Holiday in the Mountains


Decorating the tree, unpacking gifts,... For all around the Christmas tree Heart Homes created a tree with lots of animations with props for decoration and more. Read more here.


My jewelry is part of the Alma Gold Set by Vintage Jewels, to find also at the J&A Expo.

Many people like to retreat from all the Christmas hectic and  to stay in the mountains for Christmas. I choose the furnished Aspen Skybox Cabin by DaD Design. I like the beautiful landscaping with pond and ice skating. The size is perfect for a quarter homestead, can be rezzed on ground too and is for those who do not want to spend hours for landscaping.

Thanks so much Quan for highlighting the quest to sponsor all 35 elephants at Elephant Nature Park for Save the Elephant Foundation. I'm so passionate about this and the Second Life Community response has been so incredibly generous. We've still a long way to go though and when I pour my heart into something as I have with this I am very determined to see it through to the last L$.
When people such as yourself go the extra mile to get the word out there I am immensely appreciative.
