Operation: Kittiwickshire Redecoration

I've been sorely neglecting my property in Kittiwickshire.  I've been having so much fun (perhaps too much fun if one were to have observed chat on the steampunk group last night...gah) getting to know people in New Babbage that I've just not been going back to Caledon very often. 

When I last left the cottage I had set out some of my very old high-prim furnishings, and had been frustrated with how archaic they looked and how far they set me back on my prim count. So last night I spent some time there putting out some new furnishings and warming the place up a bit.

The sitting area:

Desk and dining table (I put a picture on the wall after taking this snapshot...this area needs something more, perhaps a couple of additional rugs):

I put a dock and some Adirondack chairs in the back, but it needs some plantlife:

In contrast, here is what I had in the cottage before:



First night in the new house

There is a lovely tree in the park next door.  It sits right outside of my windows.

This is what the tree looks like from the inside. 

Yay, alpha flash!  Obviously I will need to find another window solution.  I'm thinking that permanently drawn curtains might be in order for the second floor, which seems like a decent idea regardless.

The house is really coming together.  I'm almost done with the interior wallpapering, flooring and ceiling tiles, and I've even started putting out some decor.   I have a fireplace on each floor, a few rugs, and a new bed.  Oh, so comfy after a day of work...

Tomorrow is the "Bad in Babbage" villains' ball!  An invitation has been extended to everyone in the city, villains and non-villains alike, so I'm planning to attend. I do not yet know what I'll wear though.  I wanted desperately to wear a fez, but hats and I do not get along. 

I do have an outfit figured out for Saturday's "Breakfast in Babbage" though!  (And it includes not brushing my hair in the morning...)
