New Eye Release - Alien Eyes

My first new thing to 2013. These have been sitting in my inventory waiting to be released for a long time. I did have a few made for a hunt at one point, but other than that they have never hit the grid.

As always eyes are what I tend to learn my new skills on, when I take photoshop tutorials. Because of this they tend to be many different styles. These are a simplistic black based eye, but I do love the look.

In each pack you will receive one system eye, one black base system eye, legacy prim attachments in biggie and petites in two eye sizes and mesh attachments in two eye sizes.


The Basics come in 10 vibrant colours as well as one FREE wearable tester. Shown here is the Toxic Orange.


There are also 4 special colours just for my inworld group, for a special price of L$10 each. Remember to wear your group tag when you purchase from the vendor!


I also put 2 special colours into the newly revamped Aurora Vale 7Seas Fishing spot. I have been meaning to get the fishing spot back up and running for a bit now, so you will be seeing more there from now on. Both my sister an I love to fish, even if we don't get to do it often. Hope you enjoy our spot =)

72% off Sale


I am gearing up for all sorts of new, so that means big changes to the store. I have been gone off and on for the last 2 years, but will now be back on a more constant basis.

What does this mean for you?

SALE!

I will be updating the store, been working on mesh, and have many other things planned for the store.

I need to clear out all the old, update some, retire others. I can't really say what is staying, what is going, but anything that does come back will be in new colours(This does not include the petites room, the stuff in there is fine).

I have set the whole store to 72% off, 72 being my lucky number, so I thought to share my luck with you all!

So this includes all the hair, skins and even the petites items.

There are a few extra added bonuses too. I have 5 items set to L$1, L$5 and L$10. This includes the Hairs and Peties Room. I have 2 Skins at L$50. So for under L$200 you can take home some unique items to play with!

I also have the mysterious "Stringer" packs set to L$25. These include 8 randomly picks colours by me, each different for each hair.

Something I want to add, for the last past years I have had a bug to my Demos, The Jira for the bug never got enough vote to fix it, and my demo had been borked for a long time. I spent most of yesterday and today replacing all the prims in each hair that were causing the issue, so I have demos again! I didn't put them back on the vendor boards tho, so all the demos are in one huge bundle, just look to the ads for the name of the hair you want to try out. Demo boxes are all around the store, they aren't all that hard to miss.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Important Sale Note

I did not put a date on the poster. This is due to the fact that I will randomly be taking down items as they get updated or retired. I will keep everything in the store until the 31st of March for sure, then start taking things down as I go. That way you do have a chance at everything, without worrying about missing something. But if you are late, and come beyond March 31st, and something isn't there anymore, well now you know why =)

Shop Free*Style

Free*Style has always been a love for me. I joined the group in it's early creation, posting things that I found on the grid(in the beginning it was just a bunch of us out finding things), later I posted as a designer, until finally I joined the blogging team(as a guest designer blogger) in March of 2009. Yes, it will be 4 years as a Free*Styler in a few days. I have always blogged something a bit different, often doing themes, event coverage, or lists of places to find specific things.
While I may not always be posting(that is why the whole guest thing), Free*Style is always a part of my SL. It is with great honor that my sister and I were able to help with the next phase of it's life, helping to bring Shop Free*Style to fruition.
Now that the shop is live(as in open to public),I invite you all to come and see what the collective efforts of designers from all over the grid have brought forth for you to enjoy!

My Contributions:
 

A fun little hair for the ladies! L$0 on the first floor.


My first foray into mesh. L$10 on the second floor.


My Fav new item! These are Unisex and Mod/Trans so you can trade them. They also size down for petites nicely. It is only L$35 per play. Gacha on the second floor.

I hope you enjoy

Back Again - Welcome to 2013!

Mini Humans are invading my house!

So I have had yet another little life born to my family, and am finally feeling somewhat normal. This means I am going to be coming back to SL and doing some work. I have a few projects planned, not all being for The Stringer Mausoleum.

I just anted to let you all know I appreciate all your support over the years, even when I have been rather on and off.

Anyways, lots of plans for you all, so keep a look out!

~H~

*Added note*

This is post 69, tee hee!

The Stringer Mausoleum is rises for Easter

It's been a while.

Some crazy lady dragged me inworld to make some crazy hair(you can all thank Treebee Withnail), so here I am!

Been spending a bit of time learning all this new shit, mesh layers, tattoo layers(ya, I still hadn't updated to V2 when I left, still had 1.23), petite avatars and many more things.

I have been making things, and am planning on updating the store bit by bit.

I do have some things for you to look at, so here we go . . . .

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Crazy Hair Hunt 3 has started, and as per usual, I am late letting you know. There is a good reason tho! I changed my ads a bit, felt the other ones were a bit outdated. I might tweek them a bit, don't know yet.

The theme this round was Flora and Fauna. I made a really big, well not big, MASSIVE, hair with tentacle like vines and a big ass flower. Also due to my sister teaching me about Petite avatars, and gifting me one, I made the hair Petite sized as well.

TSM Massive Overgrowth - CHH3 Gift

The Hunt item is a sculpted circular celtic type thing. IDK???? Anyways, I was so not my normal mean self with hiding it, so it shouldn't take you long to find. Enjoy that while you can.

Mwahahahahahah . . . .

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I have been gone so long, that I wanted to do up some gifts for my loyal fans who have stayed in the group.

I have one big pack going in the group notices, it will have some hairs from recent ads and blogging, a few petite sized too! There are 2 Beta hairs I made in the last few days, that I had no clue what I'm doing with yet, so you can at least see what I've done so far.

I also have two group only gifts going into the store, here is a look at those:

TSM Maleficence Horns - Group Gift
TSM Buggering Around Outfit - Group Gift

Just wear your tag and click!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I have also made a new instore gift, that is free for everyone on the grid. I have always wantedto do facial hair, so that was something on my list for when I came back. I made this one for the heck of it. It is for men, but as you can see I decked out my avi fem style and wore it anyways!

TSM Mushachio - Fly away Home -Free Instore Gift

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I LUUUUUUUUUUUBS bunnahs! might not be big on the whole easter thang, but I don't mind the lil buggers shagging all over my lawn.

So I did a few eastery type things for you. Spunk Bunnah Sets are for both biggies and Petites(Sold Seperately). They have a 12 colour change hud upon click. Only L$25!

TSM Spunk Bunnah Set - Colour Change
TSM Spunk Bunnah Set - Colour Change - Petites

I have always enjoyed doing Special Edition recolours and tweeking. I did an easter one up of "Death of a Goddess" for the group, and decided to do one for everyone else to grab. it is L$25 aswell.

TSM Death of a Goddess - Easter 2012 Edition

The Group Version, which is a nice deep red and deep carrot colour, will be going out in group notices sometime sunday SLT.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I have been loving my new lil Petite avi, so naturally I have been playing to see which hairs will size down and adapt well enough.

Orly has always been a fav Vampy hair of mine. I will be doing it in all the colours, but for the time being I have the Limited Edition Dark Shines Pack in a Gacha.

It is L$25, the hairs are no trans, but if you want the whole set you can try your luck a few times by getting out of the gacha, or you can buy it in the vendor sign near the Machine.
 
I debated long and hard on putting them Tranferable(as most Gacha type stuff is) or leaving them Copy/Mod. I asked a few people, and one suggested to have the full pack set to sale, for those that want the whole set. Otherwise, if you just want one fun hair, you can just try your luck!

TSM Petites Gacha - Orly L.E. Gacha

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That is all I have for you for now. Expect more petite stuff in the near future, as I'm going to have to pimp my own lil avi out, so I migh as well help you guys with yours too!

It's great to be back, and I want to thank everyone that has contacted me about my return. If you had any issue with the store in the last year, and I haven't yet gotten to your issue, please feel free to drop me a notecard.

Enjoy!

Year 2011!

So I'm officially back, as of Jan.6th 2011. I've been gone since October 29th 2010.

Why?
Again, due to my awesome body.

Another set of health issues. Normally that in itself would not keep me away from sl, but this has been a weird case.

If you care to know a bit about what was up here we go:

I started getting migraines with my first child, during pregnancy. Never had even headaches that much even. They were worse with the second pregnancy. Then I started having my left eye not totally black out, but my vision would go red. Could see lights and things, but not much else. It only ever happened when I'd get a really bad migraine, but those were happening more often.

One thing about them, I couldn't be on the computer, they just made them worse.

I went to get checked out, but they were not totally sure *Exactly* what it was.

I have to go get my head scanned in 2 weeks. They think I have some foreign mass of buildup, and when my head swells during the migraines, it pushes it on my optical nerves.

Anyways, I have conditioned myself to be able to come online again, cause I miss sl, so I'm back working starting today.

I'm sorry about my annual Halloween hunt, and missing the holidays and stuff. I'm planning on making up for some of that.

You'll see very soon an announcement for My *Very Merry Un-Halloweemas* (title in progress) Event, which will be in February. It'll be some sort of weird mix of Halloween and Winter Holidays, and somehow I'll make it work without it being The Cheese.

Groupies----> I'm sending you all the gifts from the annual Halloween hunt that didn't have halloween stuff all over them, which was about half of the products. So enjoy! it's a big ass box, it'll be in the Group Notices.

I will also be making an awesome gift to start you on your path in the new year!
