So, while you’re waiting for Home Expo to start, you need to get right on over to this month’s Collabor88. There’s good stuff there. For example:

This is the most beautiful hammock I’ve ever seen. ♥ Isla Gealach of Cheeky Pea has released the Lilith Hammock and Table for Collabor88′s ‘Daydream’ theme, and she has done an amazing job. AMAZING. The hammock netting is, to me, a miracle of SL meshiness (only 11 prims!) and the textures on the quilts and pillow are just the loveliest soft, worn textures. You can almost feel how soft!

Oh, so much love. AND the best thing of all, which just can’t be captured in a photo – it swings!! Just click to set the hammock swinging softly from side to side. So relaxing!

There are also a ton of really fun animations included, for both singles and couples. As always – you guys know how this goes – I had no one with whom to show off the couples anims…so here, check out some of the singles. There are, like, 15 or so single anims – these are my faves!

That first one is me jumping up and down on the hammock. You know I love that!

This is a bit of an extension on the new addition to the directory, the child/nursery section. I figured that if those stores don’t have what you need, you might be lost, so here’s what I’ve done for my nursery!

Now, please remember that this is heavily modified stuff. Almost all the furniture has been changed and won’t be found in stores like you see here, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get the same look with a little tweeking.

The clouds hanging off the balloon lanterns are from vespertine’s im floating morning skies mobile, a cute little addition to make the lanterns more playful. The furniture has also been tinted. Both the changing table and dresser are supposed to be white, but a simple recolour makes it whatever wood you want.

Wallpaper’s are really fun to have, but can be overwhelming because of all the pattern. A simple fix is to create an accent wall by pulling one of the colours from the wallpaper and doing a solid print.

The crib is also one of the things I gutted and changed. With a few custom textures, tinting, and a bit of deprimming, it’s a nice, simple wooden crib. It just goes to show that even though something isn’t exactly how you want it, you can still get what you desire; it just takes some creativity.
