Cheap Skins from Plastic Flowers

Hope your Christmas and New Year went well, everyone. :3 I have a good feeling for 2010. :3 I already did something new and got a taxi on my own for the first time. Good steps for seriosuly sheltered Tricketts. x:
Going with new steps, Crystalin of Plastic Flowers has began to make skins. :3 And she has a few out for cheap at the moment. The sim PF was on was returned so the store is currently set out in two smaller locations at Witch Lagoon/Shadow Moon and Riddle.
There are four skins for 15L each. These would be the pink and smokey sets:


And there is a pale and tan New Year's skin for 25L for both:



The skins are hybrid-mods of Eloh and Evana templates as Crys writes in her notecards, which is awesome to know. :3 Templates are full perm skin sets with PSDs sold on X-Street or available for free download (Sezmra and Eloh) and they are relatively common place now, usually they are modified to create something more unique and representitive of the creator's style. They are also available for clothes and sculpt maps which explains why some skins or boots or clothes may look very similar to other skins and boots and clothes. Most stores won't tell you they're using templates so you just have to learn to identify them or research them on X-Street. When I first saw tempalted stuff I thought it was copied clothing and I spent a long time trying to figure out if I should tell the shop owner so I think it's very helpful stuff to know. x:
The regular skins themselves are currently said to 100L, I think they're on sale from 200L.

Skins - Plastic Flowers (at Witch Lagoon/Shadow Moon)/Plastic Flowers (at Riddle) - 15L-25L

Sexy Pixel Doll

Oh Hai! I hope everyone had a wonderful Holiday whichever you celebrate! My holiday was nice my daughter turned Five on Christmas so I was an extra busy bee. I had a small gathering and my daughter had a princess cake and she was thrilled! This will be a short post since I'm expecting the Mother in Law tomorrow. I just had to tell you about these cute free outfits from PixelDolls, also some other goodies I found from 10-100L.


Pixel Dolls - Gift Outfit II - Free in the main section of the shop

I just love all the parts to this outfit which you can mix and match!
PixelDolls - Gift Outfit I - Free
Courtisane Shoes - La Vivien Xmas - Subscribo Gift
***

This entire Avatar was 10L! I especially LOVE the shape and I rarely say that. I only wish it were mod so I could make her a wee bit taller. The avatar comes with the outfit, shape, skin, pretty gray eyes, glowing hair, and this neat flowing flexi thing called Star Field.

PixelDolls - Yvain Avatar - Everything shown 10L

Of course I had to throw in a little bit of Latex. You knew I would.
Get this nifty lil number for just 10L.
I had one more outfit I was going to show its similar to Gift II, but instead of orange its black white and gray it was 100L and hell of a deal but I lost the picture somehow.
Worth checking out! Happy Shopping and since I will be busy with my In-Law's I'll wish everyone a Safe and Happy New Year!

OK.. so I wanted to show you this Jewelery I made for the Twisted Krissmus Shopping Tour!! Each set is only 100L, and its Trans wrapped nicely for gift giving. The event was an attempt to make sure everyone could buy awesome gifts on a budget. My idea was to make these sets as great as possible basically its a lot of bang for your buck! I have three sets total I'm showing some of the two Christmas themed sets. The Third set is a Turquoise Jewelery set I'm very proud of, and which will go back to its normal price and permissions after December. Each set is huge with many attachments and options. Come to my shop and pick up a Twisted Krissmus Shopping Guide to see some of the other amazing offers! You have till Dec. 30Th.
