Bow Top Mary Janes!

Out now at Kick the Can, Mary Jane shoes with classic grosgrain ribbon bows on the toe top!



These are Robin's original sculpt; it's been copied, but never equaled. (And no one has even tried to copy the sumptuous polished leather texture.) Now it comes with a gorgeous bow, also an original sculpt, to make it even dressier.

Touch the knot on the bow to get a series of menus that let you choose from among 25 colors for the bow, and either silver tone or brass for the buckle.

Touch anywhere else on the shoe to get a very low-lag resize script that lets you easily get a perfect fit.

The shoe also comes with a Base shoe, so that your foot will look great in it, and an Alpha Layer (V2 compatible client needed) that will hide any part of your foot not covered by the shoe. No more poke outs!

There are eight colors of shoe; Black Licorice, Chocolate (rich brown), Chocolate Cherry (oxblood), Red Licorice, Navy, Forest Green, Cotton Candy (pink), and White Sugar. The bow colors range from soft to bright, dark to light, and include a range of warm and cool colors, as well as white, gray, and black.

Come try on a demo at Kick the Can (upstairs, right in front of the railing for now) or see them on the SL Marketplace (link goes to the Black Licorice.)

Valentine's Day Chucks!

Robin just released five new pairs of Chucks shoes, specially designed for Valentine's Day (although you can wear them any time, of course!)



They all have pink hearts on the laces, and they come in Candy Hearts (shown), Gingham Pink, Hearts & Roses, Simple Hearts, and Vintage Rose designs.

As always, they've been made so that the fabric isn't distorted on the uppers, for a beautiful shoe!

There's an alpha layer (courtesy of Marianne McCann) for V2 compatible browsers, so you don't have to worry about your feet peeking through the shoe, and a very low lag resize script in one prim from each shoe, so you can easily get a perfect fit. L$150, Transfer only. (They make great gifts!)

Come take a look and try the free demos now at Kick the Can Kid's Store and at The Robin Wood AV Store on Livingtree.

You can also get them at the Second Life Marketplace. (Link is to the Candy Hearts pair, but you'll be able to find the rest once you're there.)

Argyle Socks!

Add some pizzaz to your wardrobe, and razzle-dazzle 'em with these stunning argyle socks!



Made with remapped UVs, which were then burned onto the SL UVs, so there are no seams! No seams on the sides, no seams on the foot, no seams around the ankle (although it is a bit rough, because of the way the Avatar is made, this isn't noticable from normal viewing distances.)

There are a dozen different color packs, with 5 sock lengths in each pack. So you can choose to wear short socks, knee socks, over knee, thigh high, or tights! Each one also comes on both the Tattoo layer (for people using V2 compatible viewers) and the sock layer, for maximum layering versatility.

You can buy one pack (that's five pair, remember) for $L125, or you can get the fat pack with all 12 pair for $1250. That's 12 pair for the price of 10! Come and see them at the Robin Wood AV Store on Livingtree, at Kick the Can kid's store (on the second floor, near the shoes) or get the Fat Pack from the Marketplace. You'll love them!

Small People, Big ideas!

Happy New Year!

I have a new thing in my store: Small People.

These lil guys are copy/mod, so you can put the accessories I made for em on their heads, or make your own stuff to add, or whatever you like! They are made to be played with in playsets, dollhouses or just on their own, and they are two prims each (without the one-prim hats or hairs I made). So you can have a bunch out all over. :-D

I'll be making some playsets just for these guys too. Lessee, they'll need a house, a boat, a plane, maybe a car garage.....hmmm :-)

Winter Newness from You Know, For Kids!

Four new goodies from You Know For Kids, perfect for the holidays or any time!

First an update on my Ballerina Music Box!



This new edition has a more robust mechanism, playing swan lake. Click it to open the lid, watch the fully sculpted ballerina and key turn, and listen to the music. Wind again to hear more, or to close the box back up!

Also, say "howdy" to the Buckaroo BB Gun! Kinda sorta like what a legandary Wild West hero like Red Ryder might us



It is an actual scripted weapon, so I suggest using it with adult supervision. It shoots tiny BB pellets that can cause (minor) damage in damage-enabled areas. Don't shoot your eye out, kid.

It includes aiming and holding poses, of course. :-)

Next up: The Glow Bug!



This lovable, huggable, worm-like plush doll is the perfect nighttime friend! Comes with a hold pose, and clicking on Glow Bug's head produces a soft night light!

Prims are modify for that perfect fit, and Glow Bug is transferrable, making it the perfect gift for any kid -- or kid at heart!

Finally, introducing Little World Doll



Little World Dolls, representing four nationalities, these dolls are "goodwill ambassadors" from a simpler time. Designed as dolls and decanters, they are at home in the bath, in the bedroom, or even as a kitschy decoration in your living room! Perfect for playtime, too!

This is a pack of all four dolls! Modifiable and transferrable, great for gifts or just for fun!

All of the above are available at You Know, For Kids in Livingtree and on the marketplace!

More cheek art in the gatcha machines!

New cheek art out today at You Know, For Kids in Livingtree and Bay City! Better quality art plus more designs!



With Second Life's viewer 2.0 came a new tattoo layer, allowing for this new goodie! Since then, it has been picked up by many popular third-party browsers, too! Although you can only wear them on a viewer that supports tattoo layers, people can see them on you no matter what version of the Second Life browser they're using!

I recently updated the designs, hand-drawing them and getting a little help from my friend Robin Sojourner to provide better quality cheek art. Also have a couple new ones in the package: 21 designs available, including rainbows, suns, hearts, butterflies and even spiders, skull & crossbones, and snakes!

Sold in a gatcha machine (You know, those capsule machines like you see at the mall or supermarket), so you can randomly win one of the designs every time you buy. Transferrable too, so you can trade with friends!

Available at You Know, For Kids in Livingtree!

Hope you all enjoy!

Busy Times at Livingtree!

This has been a busy week!

Redd Columbia is sponsering a ThanksGIVING Food Market in Salchicha Harbor which benefits the World Food Programme.

She's built a beautiful barn, all strung with lights, and put tables, benches, and things inside like a farmer's market. Then she invited everyone who wants to participate to put out food related items. Anything, really, just so long as it is connected to food in some way. Everyone is also giving a percentage from their sales to WFP.



I made a new Harvest tea set, some red Mary Jane shoes with a bow and a peppermint, and some Holiday Candy Chucks. I'm also selling seven other things that I already had that happen to have food on them, or actually be food!

While I was at it, I made the Mary Janes in a few other colors, too. I hope to get them up on the Marketplace after I'm finished recording the Tutorial tomorrow.

Then, while unpacking a box of stuff in First Life (yes, we're still doing that most days) I came across Michael's old propeller baseball cap, and just had to bring that into SL™! I already had the cap, so all I had to do was the propeller, and a few other details. Those should be coming out sometime this week.

Which gives me more stuff than I can fit in the Kick the Can store as it stands now, so I'm going to be adding another floor to it! I designed it to do that, way back when, so it's not going to affect the outside. But it'll almost double the room that I have to work with inside. Tomorrow I'll get some shelves done for all the shoe boxes, and then I'll be making the changes live in world!

So... lots done, and lots still to do! But at least it's all fun. :D
