It's been a while since I posted, but I'm still here and still decorating my homes in SL. I just forgot to post the photos.
Anywho... I'll probably (maybe, who knows) make a post of several houses all at one time to catch up with the last 18 months, but for today I'm just going to post the one I just finished. Then I can pick it all up and start with my autumn house... I already have some ideas on what I'd like to do.
On to today's home. This is the latest house released by one of my absolute favorite creators, Apple Fall. It's called the Patricia Cottage, and it's completely lovely. It's made with the new PBR textures, and also has several different options for floors, walls, and outside paint schemes to customize it to your tastes. I also like that while it's a decent size, it's just a one-bedroom home, which I prefer to decorate. I get bored with the bigger houses before I finish, and I also run out of prims... ooops!
The brick doesn't change, but you can select your door color and the wooden siding (far right side of the house). Apple kindly included several of the textures in the package, so I was able to retexture a garage to match the house.
The entryway is a decent size, and I used a photo Apple Fall posted on Primfeed as inspiration to decorate part of it. I switched out some items, but the arrangement is similar. The living room has items from AF, Nutmeg, Merak, and Kraftwork. I also used a lot of AF furniture throughout the house because the textures blend well. You'll also notice quite a few pieces from Nutmeg, another of my favorite creators.
The kitchen is a mix of the Kraftwork CottageCore kitchen with the Apple Fall Douglas kitchen sink. I tinted the white kitchen black, but it is sold in black too. The dining area and bar are a mix of AF, Fancy Fall, and the chairs from the Merak Harborline set that I tinted black to match. I've been having so much fun with textures since PBR was integrated into SL. I retextured the top of an old AF table with a new PBR marble as well as the marble part of the Camillia Bar. The checkerboard tile floor is also a texture I purchased and applied.
The bathroom has the latest bath set from Merak, the Caldera Spa set. It includes the bathtub, surround, towel rack, floor, and several items behind the tub on the shelves. The other half is mostly from Nutmeg and Fancy Decor, with a few random decor pieces from other places. I don't know what was going on with the sink mirror. PBR mirrors still give me fits and act wonky sometimes.
The bedroom is a mix of Kraftwork (bed), Nutmeg (tables, chair), and AF (wall panels, cabinet, bench) with assorted decor and plants from my inventory. The patio set through the doors is from Fancy Decor.
Also, I wanted to mention my curtains! They're animesh and blow in the wind. I saw them being used at a store and had to find them! They're from Sweet Pearl Fusion. They're adjustable in size, but the adjustments are limited, and you can't mod them outside of the kit that comes with them, but you can play around and make them work if you've got a big enough set of windows.
As always, let me know if you want to know about a specific item in the photos, and I'll try to remember where I got it from. Now it's time for me to go think about autumn houses.
