When I first stepped on +mudshake territory a year ago, I just knew right then and there that I had to have my own private island to put one of Isolahara’s prefabs on. Her unique, little vintage homes were right up my alley and if I could buy all of her vibrate furniture pieces, I would. Awhile ago, my partner and I wanted to move in with our friends and putting my ultimate Second Life dream aside, we purchased this wooden enchantment of a house that fit way more than just the six of us. Honestly, I think I fell in love with it because it reminded me of Rudd (my partner, of course) and he was really in love with the nostalgic feeling he got from it. It was really retro, totally 80s and I was surprised when he said I could change some of the bizarre textures that were included with it. Not to lose it’s total ghetto appeal, I opted to leave some of the wood paneling, shag carpet ceilings (seriously, wtf?) and the bead curtains (which I totally fell in love with!).
In the end it was busting our legs to pay for that beast, so I picked up another job and we settled for this quaint country home. We sort of, may have, just a little bit! taken advantage of the maximum amount of prims we were suppose to use. We thought we could get away with it until our landlord built a new home and oh dear, the new tenant couldn’t even rez her shit because we had doubled, make that tripled, up on our stuff. I set on looking for a new sim. Small, but private and less expensive, please. Lucky us we found one and all my Second Life dreams came true in less than twenty-four hours.
The sim was so big and we had such a large prim count, we brought in two of our room mates who were more than happy to get a +mudshake home of their own. I swear I didn’t even have to bribe. Thank god for +mudshake and their inexpensive, low prim homes. Can that place not be anymore perfect? I mean, I’m sure that place has been blogged about endlessly but that should be to no surprise. It’s awesome. Anyway, I’m not finished decorating the thing but I was too excited not to post pictures. It’s my first time landscaping and I’m not too sure the setting and my over-excited self gearing it up to high quality made for the best photogenic photos of my plants and things, but that sunset was way too pretty, man.
Pictures and details after the jump!

I still have no memory of a shag ceiling of any kind. But if that’s true, you’re an amazing woman for tolerating such tackiness. I love how happy you are at our new digs because I’m seriously so over moving.

[...] I chipped in what I had for our own private island sim, which she wrote about so much better here. I LOVE IT!!! I love Olivia and I having our own, real house, instead of just a room. Our first day [...]
