Home & Garden Expo is upon us again!

The past few days have been especially hectic with the development of new releases as well as build for Organica’s spot at the SL Home & Garden Expo. With the added work of needing to prime all my vendors with an event-friendly script, sleep has been hard to find this week.

Fresh on the heels of the Cherry Tree release, I put myself to task for putting together a new structure that would be a good fit for the smaller space I had chosen for this year’s exhibit.

I set out to work on a converted warehouse look and have been pretty happy with the results, but this particular build will be on-site as a preview only, while full release should occur not too far from now, in-store. When final tweaks are taken care of, the space should be a very flexible prefab suitable for use either on the ground or as a skybox, great for either commercial or residential use.

Additionally, I’ve created a number of brand new items for exclusive premiere at H&G Expo:

This vintage lamp can be used either as a hanging or standing lamp – or both! Put it right up against a wall to bounce light off in a diffuse manner or away for a more eye-catching effect. You can use it to divide a too-large room or to create an interesting centerpiece if you so choose. Mod, copy with a copy-only script. Click for on and off, or to set it to turn on at night.

This is a five-piece, modular brick & wrought-iron fence set, put together for a stately look. (Three unique pieces total – semi and full-circle items are included for your convenience) Great for gardens small or large! Use to line the perimeter of your land or simply to divide off a section and create a quiet enclosure. Ranges from 1 to 13LI depending on which item is used. Optimized for use with Advanced Materials. Mod, copy, no transfer.

This is a simple garden lantern – great for placement in a garden bed or upon any sort of patio table, plinth, etc. It’s 1LI, mod/copy with a copy-only script. Click for on and off, or to set it to turn on at night. This is an RFL item, so all proceeds will be sent to Relay For Life.

Additionally, both an RFL Edition Rosebush 2 and Fresh Cut Roses are now available, alongside many of the RFL-only releases, so if you missed them in previous years, now’s your chance to pick them up (although some very old offerings have been retired).

Several recent releases are also available for viewing – if you haven’t yet had a chance to check out the Animesh Weeping Willow and Cherry trees, you can now do so, along with many other items that have been put together over the past year, all in one small exhibition located in the heart of Hope 3 region.

SL Home & Garden Expo features nine merchant regions as well as a gachapon region, all attached to the American Cancer Society region. It begins March 15 and runs thru April 7. I hope to see you there!

New waterfall, tree and plants!

Waterfall3-vendorStarting today and running thru ’til February 14, Organica will be participating in The House Hunt!

Hint: The prize can be found where fire and water meet!

Additionally, there are two other new releases this week:

Organica Sim-wide Halloween Hunt! (plus one more release!)

For a very limited time, three items (seen in the above image) will be scattered throughout Organica sim. They are each discount items, which means you can wear them like discount cards and Right-click> Select ‘Card’ to redeem their rewards.

The longhorn skull’s discount expires on November 1, 2011, so that item can no longer be found after that date. The discount on the other two items expire at the end of November 2011. Discounts cannot be combined – if multiple discount objects are worn simultaneously, you will get the lowest discount.

If you purchased items from the store today, find one of these items and send me a snapshot of you holding or wearing it; I’ll go through and refund you the percent discount granted by that item!

On an unrelated tangent, I’m also releasing some new Rose Gates while I have a chance!

These Rose Gates are available in eight colours and are only 4 prims each! They are made from oblong sculpts, so make sure you have at least viewer 1.21 or newer to view.  Available individually as well as in a fatpack. ( Buy in Store ) ( Marketplace link forthcoming )
