Fall is a time to sit outside with friends and enjoy the perfect weather (well, in SL) and falling leaves, maybe with a nice Merlot . Could anything be more conducive to entertaining than these contemporary wicker seating sets?  

The detailed mesh wicker chair has four different fabric change options (and you can also tint the cushions in Edit), and eight different sits. 

 The coffee table rezzes a cheese plate with wine and flowers that gives a glass of wine and cracker with cheese, plus daisy and orchid centerpieces or magazines and candles when not entertaining.  This larger set is 20 Prims / Land Impact.

The smaller set, 13 prims / Land Impact has two chairs with an end table.  Both sets come with a ceiling fan and a rug, and pieces are available individually.

Everything is exclusively at La Galleria!

HALLOWEEN GIFTS!

Still gearing up for the big day!  This week I have a new skull and raven wind chime, out of which creepy bats fly to scare your guests. 

 I put out different sizes cute mesh Jack O Lanterns made by Anthonys Republic.  I also updated a Halloween wreath from last year, made a new wreath, and have the animated sculpted Jack O Lanterns from years past.

Everything is COPY and on the front porch of the Villa Galleria. 

Net week and following:  Halloween party things and spooky decorations for inside and out!

I have more fun making Halloween gifts than almost anything else!  As always, I have new mesh things and lower prim mesh versions of old things, which I will be putting out for the next five weeks before Halloween.  Plan a party because I will have fun party things!

First up, a new candle set with tiny animated scowling Jack o Lanterns, 5 prims, copyable:

 And some copy mod spider webs to dress things up inside and out!

 Plus two of my favorites from years past, the melted witch — who keeps cackling despite her fate (turn sound off and on by touch)!

Touch the cauldron to get a stick and sit on the cauldron to start stirring.  Both copyable.

Every room needs a focal point — something special, something not everyone else has. Something like my beautiful antique Italian console, a perfect dramatic touch in an entryway, or any other room in the house, and only 2 prims / Land Impact. 

It is mesh, 2 prims, and copy-mod, this week at an introductory price.

I have several Autumn banners, perfect to welcome guests, plus a new mesh Pumpkin Leaf Emitter. Just place the pumpkin near the center of your yard and watch the leaves begin to fall! Throw out that sculpted one from last year and pick up this much prettier mesh one — it is right by the Italian console. It is copyable so make as many copies as you like.

I love a variety of styles (and hate a few), but I would have to say that Country French is my favorite. It has the elegant, beautiful lines of Louis XV, but simpler and more informal.  This explains why I have always loved a friend’s gorgeous Country French dining set, and made a mental note “I must make this in mesh!” every time I saw it.  This week I finally did that, and have a beautiful table for 6 ready to go.  Only 46 prims total!

For this week’s gift I have a  mesh houseplant in a terra cotta pot.  It is  copyable.

Wow, that plant stand from last week was super popular!  So I made a white one for this week. It is by the Bombe chests,  free (for a week),  copyable so *you only need one* .   (Copyable plant is not free.)

I love bombe chests — they are so French, so classic, so DRAMATIC (but in a GOOD way!). They are really not for the faint of heart.

So in addition to my original burl bombe chest, I have made two more.  All of them have  specular materials so they will have a subtle sheen when seen through a materials-enabled viewer (which atm is only the LL viewer).

I found this nice paisley fabric to put on my wing chairs, and then someone asked if I had the copper leather version in red or black, so I tinted the leather to show her.  Those looked so good I made dark brown, green, and blue ones, too (yes I love to tint things!).

I am putting a price of 10 L on this mesh plant stand.   Looks nice tucked away in a corner or by a doorway, inside or out, and is only one prim.  Copy and Mod. (The plant is not part of the promo.)

*** A REMINDER ABOUT GIFTS, PROMOS, AND INTRODUCTORY PRICES ***

These all have expiration dates, usually one week. At some point afterwards, these things will be at their regular price, usually in the Accessories dept.

I received  requests for darker wood wall shelves like the white ones from last week, so those are on the wall by the chandeliers.  The picture shows how they look on a viewer that has materials enabled.
I made two sizes — each is copy mod, so you only need one of each.

************  Travertine Dinner Party Dining Set for 6 *************

I really love this dining set, with its Old World yet contemporary style.  Plus I love being able to mix and match the table with so many different styles of chairs — which is why I have not boxed it as a set. Here in the pictures I have it with one of several tintable slipper chair fabric options and  Jacobean chairs (with texture/color change) but it goes with almost any style.  The table rezzes both sculpted and new mesh food and centerpieces.

To go with it I have a travertine console table, which would also look great as an entry or hallway table.
