Christmas at Patron

Enjoy being a patron of Patron this holiday season!

It's time to get the holiday decorations out of storage and it's always fun to buy a ton of new things both RL and SL.  My fav overall SL shopping for Christmas home decor is Patron by Eliza Wierwight.

Visit Patron here: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Patron/128/128/21

She says it best and her info. states:
"Well, we're on our way, it's no secret that  I love creating for the Season. There's a massive section at Patron for your consideration with more added almost daily. I've striven to get the foundation pieces out for people like me that just love to go there in November.

The inspiration for this year's collection is inspired by jewel tones and Tahitian pearls. Think Sapphire, Aquamarine, Garnet, Rhodolite, Ruby, Pink Diamond, Amethyst and Amber. I've also designed a Couture Tree, somewhere between a sculpture and a tree, I can't tell you how much I enjoyed the pursuit, perhaps it's evident when viewed. Note, this is not a wearable, drape yourself in front of it, if you can't resist  :P

Another whimsy, my stained glass reindeer resonate warmth. Inexpensive and a brilliant way to playfully extend magnificent bursts almost sunlight into environments, you'll see.

I've switched up to an alternative bow feature on one series of garlands this year,  Black Caviar  and rich cream. They're a little more reserved though hold their own allure to me personally. In conjunction with these I've introduced a Tahitian pearl & Black Caviar tree, unexpected, though for me personally, it's pure elegance.

As I mentioned, a lot more to come, and frequently.

With great affection.
Eliza"

I blog Patron almost every Christmas and some other times because the quality and detail of the products are just gorgeous.  It's a great place to window shop too if you are broke, but I bet you don't walk away empty handed.  The place is filled with realistic and artistic home decor, landscaping, homes, art and the Christmas area is beautiful to see.  The artist in Eliza really shines through her products.  Check it out and enjoy.



This next middle pic is a new product by Eliza and she took the pic.

 

 And finally I took a pic of the full sim area of awesome products. There are many other things around the area too..

Patron Banyan House & Just Because Kimbra Gown-Two Class Acts

So, as you know, I don't frequently blog products and when I do it's either at the request of a friend and is something I like or occasionally there is just something I totally completely love that I feel the need to blog and share with anyone I can. This happens to be one of those must blog moments for both this build and this gown.  For a class act, quality, and beauty I'm blogging here the Patron Banyan House by Eliza Wierwight and the Just Because Kimbra gown by Annie Melson.   Scroll to the bottom for the pics. : )

*******************************************************************************
Eliza Wierwight is very well known for her elegant home décor, art, and landscaping and she's combined these three skills with this latest release, her Banyan House.   Their info. states in part, "The PATRON Banyan House Original Edition, currently seen on the Time SIM Inworld, is ideally suited for customers that have a full SIM or Homestead. Though this version of the Banyan House will fit on 25% of a full region, it's a tight fit on the borders."  They also offer a reduced footprint version for smaller spaces.  Hopefully you can see by the pictures the highly detailed home features with many open air room spaces.  The special features really add a lot as well including a moving night sky ceiling piece in the elegant bedroom, an Imagination room that hints of 50 Shades of Grey and an offering of future modules to be released for room options, and there are many wonderful little things and places to find that took me a couple trips to find.  It's a class act through and through with no-pose ball animation system, butler system that summons a range of activities right where you desire, wonderful full landscaping, sounds, and the full experience.  You can see many of the special features on their blog site. Eliza said the demo house will be on it's current location for about 4 more weeks then move to the Patron sim area. The landscaping is truly impressive and offers great scenery looking out of the windows as well as for outdoor enjoyment including beach and waterfall areas, decorator pool, and various water décor areas in and around the home.   If you aren't in the market for a new home, this place is worth a visit just to explore and see and enjoy, and you might find that you are in the market after all, as it's just that great!

Next I'd like to feature the beautiful Kimbra Gown by Just Because that is currently offered at the Uber event.  This gown is so fantastic I bought the fat pack hud so that I can have all colors.  Not only does it fit easily and perfectly, it looks amazing with a great cut that is extremely sexy yet classy at the same time with it's low back and curves in all the right places.  The textures and design are great and the price is right so I highly recommend this gown.  On a side note Just Because also just released a very cute Lucie tank top in multiple styles over at FaMESHed too! So you might want to check out these two events for these products then head over to the Just Because main store for more great shopping.  I'm wearing the gown in some of the below Banyan House pictures.  Note: the DeLa Lorena hair I have on also can be found at Uber.

My friend Valiant Westland TP'd me over to this location to have a look at the closing sale with 75% off landscaping, jewelry and other items from these well known creator and maker of quality products.  I already had their adorable cottage and love it but now it's at such an amazing price I wanted to get the winter version and also ended up buying their package of sheep for only 88L.  It was late so I need to go back and peruse their jewelry now and some of the other builds and things before the shop closes and the sale ends.  Don't miss out! The products will still be sold on marketplace.  Their note information states in part :

RE:      A Snowy Cottage, Some New Season-Changing Trees & Closing our Inworld Shops
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
          We have had the pleasure of sharing our creations in Second Life for a very long time,
     but it's time to change how we do that just a little bit.  While it's a privilege to have a very
     large canvas to create on, it's also a big expense.  We haven't been able to spend much
     time inworld at all this past year, with first life priorities taking the front seat.  We sold our
     5 sims and opened up a smaller presence on the mainland grid, but now it's time to
     close that too.
    
     We aren't leaving.  We love being able to create!  However, since we are not able to do
     this very often at the moment, we'll be closing our inworld shops, but leaving our shops
     on Marketplace open to continue to share current releases, and any new goodies we
     are inspired to conjure up in the months ahead.
    
     Not everything is available on Marketplace, nor will it be due to the constraints on our time,
     so you might want to take a peek in the inworld shops before we close them down later
     this week to snap up things like seasonal items, and the 75% off sale we've been running
     in our jewelry and landscaping departments.
     We closed our shop on the InWorldz grid in December, so you'll no longer find our items
     available for sale there.
     Our Marketplace web site shops will continue to be available at:
     ► https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/37272
     ► https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/37216
    
    
     We'd like to tell you now just a little bit about what lies ahead, including some new releases,
     and our plans for updating some of our current products with our more robust new system
     for poses and add-ons.

     For people who want to deck their entire cottage out with snow and winterberries to match

     the cottage is now available.  This is sold separately, and at a discount of 75% off this week.
     You can preview it and pick it up near our original Gatehouse Cottage vendor inworld here:

     website, it is not available at this 75% discount.

The PATRON House-New Release

Visit here:  http://slurl.com/secondlife/Patron/80/235/30

"When an Artist designs a home..."

 Eliza Wierwight, a well known SL artist, has just released her latest masterpiece, this time in the form of the PATRON house.   Not only is Eliza an exceptional artist, she is an exceptional builder and she has some of the loveliest things available in SL.  Her eye for style and detail is reflected in her works, and I know people line up to get her new releases.  Line up is not exactly the word, maybe nag is more fitting. (yes, I've witnessed some nagging.... even participated in some naggin myself last Christmas when I wanted some of her gorgeous garland she used for decoration then put for sale after so many people begged to buy it) It amuses but doesn't surprise me to learn people pre-order her products sight-unseen.  Eliza has a huge showroom full of  a variety of beautiful items,  a large outdoor gallery and several homes available for sale, so you would think that would satisfy, but the problem is her products are so good many people buy most of it and hunger for more including this lastest "Patron" work of art.

The newly released PATRON House is sold with copy and modify permissions and is a quality 748 prims with furniture available for sale separately.  The footprint is 115x115 in a rezbox with surrounding landscaping and water features included plus a small retreat island.   Eliza did include some special items such as wall seating, outdoor BBQ kitchen bank, fire pit, sculptures, art, etc.

(above photos taken by Eliza)

The price is L$16,500 and well worth it for this kind of quality and style. The warm woods, all the details, the special sounds and impressive textures add to the class of the home. Some of the various rooms and build areas include the Entry with sculptures, the main room with fireplace etc., and 4 amazing looping sound files that can be turned on or off.   There is a beautiful dining area, butler pantry, and an outdoor kitchen bank.  The home has a spa area with animations, a gorgeous master bedroom and one of the most impressive rooms in the house, the master bathroom.  I have some photos because as the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words and I'd need a lot of words to do this place justice. There are steps leading down into the sea and off to the island retreat with a variety of animations, a separate set of environmental sounds,  and a fire pit on slabs.  This really has to be seen to be fully appreciated but Eliza took some pictures for me and I snapped a few candids while on a sneak peek tour.  (my pics below)

                                                                    (Gotta love the details)
My friend Emma and I received a sneak peek prior to release and we all oogled the spacious bathroom with his and hers sinks, stone tub and I was really impressed by the thick stone tiling in the shower stall and on the tub shelf.  It looks so real and damp or "wetish" as Eliza said and when I asked agreed  I could quote her on that impression of the flooring.  I hope she wasn't joking.  Then  she fell out on the floor and I took a photo asking if she is finally resting after making such a beautiful house.  She said it did take her 3 months to build but she had a huge laundry list of SL and RL obligations and interruptions that took time away from building this too.  In the end it's something she can truly be proud of and SL patrons can thoroughly enjoy.  

(Here is  Eliza all worn out on her bedroom floor after working so hard on this labor of love house rushing to meet everyone's demands. I bet she didn't think I'd post this one. .hehe)  Anyway .. be sure to see this house, even if you aren't in the market right now as it's a great build to visit.  Fantastic job again Eliza!
