Hair Fair Charity

The hair fair is just around the corner! The chosen charity is Wigs for Kids. I didn’t know much about this charity so I did a bit of googling.

Wigs For Kids is not on Charity Navigator and do not have a lot of information in their The Better Business Bureau’s Charity Review. There is a lot more information on their Network For Good profile though.

The organization was mentioned in a few guides for donating hair, as in this one on Ehow and this one on About.com. They also rank high in search engines for searches related to hair donation.

Finally, one good thing I saw on their site is that every single hairpiece Wigs For Kids makes is given to a child and their family free of charge.

Thank you everyone for being such a loyal reader. Most readers have been with me since the beginning way back when in 2007!

SLDD Designer Applications

We all know that Express and myself are behind SL Daily Deals. So only appropriate that I talk about it on my own blog. The program is full of wonderful designers. Nearly each day we’re asked how designers can join. Now is that chance! We’ve created a super easy application. If you would like to join, check this out for the details and get a designer application.

If you’re thinking about it, you’d better hurry. We are taking applications this week only! All designers will need to be in place prior to the end of May for the new “cycle” on June 1st.

Also, there are several bloggers from around the grid being their own style to SLDD. Here are just a few of the bloggers and their posts:

Alicia Chenaux
Grazia Horwitz
Willow Zander
Strawberry Singh
Bells Semyorka
Gabby Panacek

If you’re a potential shopper, check out this post and this post – both talk about the club savings and perks!

A huge thank you to everyone for all the support! <3

Bunny Crazed

I’ve been so all over the grid lately and needing to have a giant bunny sale. I can’t keep up with all the bunnies I have … and they, when I’m (thankfully) not looking have more bunnies. Do you see the viscous cycle?! Come by my little spot at the Bunny Wranch to pickup your next nest or bunny. I’ve also set for sale the little cute boy Castor radiant who just happens to be a full lop!

Store Location: L.Jubilee

Here’s some of the more recent details of the nests and lives I have available

SLDD Chatter

Day 4 of the new SL Daily Deals is coming to a close. I’ve had IMs, been sent forum links, given notecards, and private plurks from folks praising or gripping about the upcoming membership changes.

Let’s review a scenario or two:

SLDD memberships starting May 1st will be:
1 week (7 days) : 150L
2 weeks (14 days) : 200L
1 month (28 days) : 300L
2 months (56 days) : 500L

Using today’s SLDD 50% off item as an example: Regular Price: 850L versus Club Discount: 425L (Savings of 425L)

If you bought the two months worth of an SLDD membership (500L), you’re only 75L in the hole. Wow, 75L. What’s that, like, 50 cents USD?

So, since the membership in the example is good for 60 days. You’ll no long “be in the hole” when another designer pulls out an awesome deal like this example. Actually, your membership would be paid for plus some!

The other side: Let’s say you aren’t liking any of the 50% off days. It could happen, right?! So you pull open the List of Designers page, and find something you like. You have 60 days of a membership and access to countless discounted items randomly placed in all the designers stores. Most of these 10% or 25% off discounts are rotated often.

What you all don’t know is that SLDD will have at least 28 designers in the club each month. Minimum of 28 designers each offering a 50% off deal. Also half of these designers will have SLDD only exclusives.

SLDD has the potential to have nearly 50 designers in the club. Sure not all will have 50% off or exclusives but all will have store discounts (10%, 20% and 25% off items) every single day.

Now I’m curious, what’s the gripe? I wonder about the sense of entitlement some shoppers have … are these the folks those who TP into stores just for the hunt gift and off to the next?

Sure, SLDD isn’t for everyone (nothing is). We are welcoming positive constructive feedback to make the program work for those actively engaged.

Celebrating 3 Years of Blogging

With just under 800 blog posts under my belt, I’m celebrating today my third blogging anniversary. Below is a photo-montage covering my three year history.

Looking back on all the blog posts I can’t help to smile. I love seeing how my photography skills have improved over the years and how the fashion trends have come a long way from prim to sculpties. All those memories the years is really amazing. One thing that doesn’t change is the support and encouragement from all of you – readers and designers! Thank you so much!

{L.Jubilee} is open

In my last bunny post, I showed my first hutch. This one is about my newest build, The Circle Hutch Silo. It was released just yesterday. Its a stack-able hutch with a touch-texture-change for the hutch wording. Feel free to pick up one or all 5 colors. Its ideal for helping get your bunnies organized. Even perfect for shops as its only a 2M footprint and 2 or 3 prims (depending on the style you choose).

Since have haves so many nests and now these new products, it was time to look for a larger stall.  I opened {L.Jubilee}!

I have a few things in the works too. Hopefully I’ll be adding new items often. The bunnies and nests are added daily too.

Please come see {L.Jubilee} at Bunny Wranch

I couldn’t put it all together without the help of Express. In the wee hours of stall shopping and building … and everything else we got going on, we got a little punchy and dressed as bunnies. Bunny or not, he’s awesome and so super supportive of all of my ideas.

Ain’t that the Truth!

Today’s SLDD was much anticipated by Express and I (and those who hawk the flickr stream…shh its a secret tho). In the minutes leading up to the vendor’s start time, the crowd gathered and doing the pee dance.  The start time came and went and the crowd got, erm, mob-ish. Clicking the vendor repeatedly doesn’t help, btw.

Meanwhile, Express is re-checking the vendor’s scripts and we exchange IMs of “srsly. idk. wtf”. We find Truth … he comes online and the girls went weak in the knees. I kid you not. The marriage proposals flew and I think someone giggled. seriously. She giggled.

Then the comment was made “Someone should make a ‘I survived Truth’s SLDD’ “. Well, someone did. That someone is Lauren Bisiani of T Junction.  The tee is a freebie! Just like today’s event, it will be memorable.

A huge thanks goes to Truth for being such a great sport. The reason as to why the vendor didn’t work will be our secret. <3

If you haven’t gotten the hair today, get it now. you have until midnight slt to pick it up at the vendor’s location. It will be marked at the usual price after midnight. Check the SLDD site for the info. While there, it would really be worth the while to get on the SLDD mailing list. Seriously.
