New Release in Builder's Bargains Sale!

It hasn't officially begun yet as of this writing, but my new release for this week is my contribution to the Builder's Bargains sale! If you've never checked it out, be sure to do so! In a few hours, the new list should be released, so you'll be able to see all the other amazing builder-friendly items that are on sale!

This texture pack is a set of 28 from real-life photos that I took myself while on a trip with my family to Howe Caverns in Upstate New York. I've optimized the textures for contrast and color, included light and dark versions of most textures, and made 13 of them seamless as well! There are textures which would be perfect for ceilings, walls, floors, and in a couple of cases, for both walls and ceilings. Some of the seamless ones would also make beautiful floor decorations when you increase the texture repeats on a face.

From today until end of day Sunday only, I'll have this texture set available for just 70L in the Main Store location only. After that, it will go up to its usual asking price, 140L.

Also, because RL has been so hectic, I've still got the store-wide 33L Grand Opening sale going on. Be sure to stop on down. At this point I'll probably leave it running until the end of the month, to coincide with the last day of the Donut Hunt, which you also want to make sure not to miss! See last week's blog entry for details on that in-store hunt, hehe.

Thanks as always for your great support!

New Main Store = Mini Hunt and Sale!

Have some exciting developments under way both for \\CHIPAHOLIC// Main Store and for Builder's Bargains headquarters, and really excited to share this new move with you by kicking it off with an in-store hunt and storewide sale!

I've got the new main store all set up, so that's what we'll be concentrating on for today, hehehe. To celebrate this wonderful new location, I've put together an in-store mini hunt! It's called The Donut Hunt, and runs from today until July 31st. Each donut hidden in the shop has an ooey, gooey, yummy full-perm texture filling.


For this hunt, you will be looking for either the chocolate frosted donuts (for VIP group members, costing 0L) or strawberry frosted donuts scattered (for everyone, costing 2L) around the store. If you find all 16 of either flavor of donut, you wind up getting yourself a complete set of my new release, the "Cardboard Box Kit"! So, even if you are on the path for which you are paying 2L per donut, you end up paying just 32L for a full pack of textures that is worth 80L! Can't beat that, can you???

Also starting today, but ending at the end of the day on Monday, July 10th, is a store-wide Grand Opening Sale. EVERYTHING in the store (with the exception of items in the sale countdown vendor) has been marked down to 33L or LESS!

Come celebrate this great new move by visiting my new location: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Lionheart%20Scar/236/99/29

Newly repackaged and available now ....

are the two sets of linens that had been bundled together for the Builder's Bargains sale. There are 24 textures in each set, and they are each available at 120L per set!

One set is the "Simple Linens," a pack of a combination of pastel (with a bit of a washed-out look great for beach looks) and bright tones great for a modern, summery look on anything you wish to apply these textures to.

The "Patterned Linens" offers the same colors, but with some pretty modern crescent patterns.

So, if you missed the sale, no worries, you can still get them in the Main Store.

Linens and Circles -- Bargain!

This week's new release is a special bundle of plain and patterned linens in all sorts of shades ranging from summery brights to cool pastels. For the Builder's Bargains sale, I've bundled these textures together, and marked all 48 textures down by 50% to 120L.

The sale runs from Thursday (today), and ends at the end of the day on Sunday, so be sure to come by and snap up the deal.

While you're at it, be sure to check out the Builder's Bargains blog and see all the amazing builder-friendly items that designers from across the grid have set out for sale!

Once this sale ends, my bundle will be separated into two different packs (one plain set of linens, the other the patterned set), and will be 120L PER PACK. So definitely grab this deal! It'll be a while before it comes by again.

Builder's Bargains and Anniversary Sales!

Woot woot! Got the Builder's Bargains sale off and running! If you haven't heard about it yet, it's a new sales group that I've organized. Really excited about it as it is one-of-a-kind and has many wonderful creators as its vendors.

For this sale, I've gathered together 25 fabulous full-perm/builder's aids creators. These include creators of full-perm textures, sculpts, mesh, templates, and other builder's aids such as tutorials, vendors, scripts etc. Twice a week, vendors on this sales list will put up one of their items up for a minimum discount of 50% off! The list will be distributed to the Builder's Bargains group, as well as to each vendor's respective store group(s).

Of course, the advantage of being in Builder's Bargains is that shoppers can receive notices about BB vendors' new releases, sales, gifts, etc., and get it all in one convenient group. So, if you haven't joined up yet, be sure to do so!

BB has a blog, too, which shows off all of our amazing vendors, so be sure to visit it. The current sales list is also published there, so DO stop by and check everyone out!

Meanwhile, for this sales group, I put together my two sets of window textures into a discounted bundle. The "Simple Clean" set of windows and the "Distressed Simple Windows" have been put together and are available from today until Sunday for 50L! Normally, if you were to purchase both, you'd have to pay 100L. So, snap up this sale!

Also, while you're checking out the BB sale item, browse around the rest of the textures. Believe it or not, it's been a year since I re-opened my shop and started up business again! To celebrate, I've set all regular-priced items on sale at 33% each.

VIP group members have a few specially-priced anniversary sale items in the VIP group zone. Be sure to stop by!

Happy shopping everyone! There's lots going on.

Lots of Dots!

PHEW! First newness in a long time! I've had a lot of work to do with our new Builder's Bargains sales group, which if you haven't had a chance to take a look at, please do! You'll find the blog here --> http://buildersbargainsblog.blogspot.com/

On top of all of that, I had run into some technical issues that I've only just been able to fix and move beyond. I appreciate everyone's patience!

Without further ado, I give you my newest release: Dotted Denims. It's a set of 16 total textures, 15 of which are seamless. The set includes one plain seamless denim texture, 14 polka-dotted seamless textures in varying sizes and colors of dots, and one plain, shaded denim texture.

As always, the half-pack is in the Midnight Mania board from today until end of day Sunday. In the VIP Midnight Mania board though, the full pack of it has been loaded, woot!

Stop by the main store and enjoy!

Blossoms in Bloom

This week, things are in full bloom at the Main Store! I've just set out my new texture set called "Blooming Blossoms." Clearly, this set is inspired by spring, hehe. It's a set of 14 total textures, 7 shaded and a matching 7 unshaded.

They are all 512x512 fabrics in JPEG format. As always, they are all hand-created by myself!

Of course, subscribo-group and VIP members will be receiving a sampling of this pack for free as their group gift this weekend. On Friday, the regular Midnight Mania board will have the half-pack of this set loaded into it, and the VIP board will have the full-pack loaded up.

Discounted items this weekend include: Halfpack of the Tiny Birds release from last weekend's MM board is available in the Pay What You want vendor in the main store, and for VIP members only, the full pack of the Tiny Birds pack is available at 50% off!

Hope you enjoy all the newness!
