  • Sanu in SL: Pretzel Sticks and Fun Lipsticks!

    It totally slipped my mind to announce the pretzel sticks here on my blog… so first things first:

    Sanu in SL: Pretzel sticks are tasty as! You can't just stop at one.

    I’m going to Japan in just a couple of weeks, and one of the things that I’m going to be looking forward to is pocky – a type of dipped pretzel/biscuit stick that comes in a multitude of fun flavours. Did you know that you can even get special flavoured pocky depending on what region of Japan you are in? For example, in Nagano there is grape pocky, and in Hokkaido you can get yubari melon flavour. You can read more about them on Wiki.

    And now for my latest release: lipsticks!

    Sanu in SL: Lipstick you can carry anywhere... and that delivers a delicious kiss on a click!

    These lovely lippies hang on a cute little string around your neck… and the even better thing is that anyone who clicks it will get a wonderful little kiss on the cheek. Cute, huh?

    Annnnnd I couldn’t just stop at one set of shades…

    Sanu in SL: For the more conservative, these are the classic lipstick shades, rather than the fancy party colours!

    So I made two sets. One for the vivid shades, and another for the classics. What can I say? I love these lipsticks so much I needed to do a huuuuuge range of colours to do them justice!

    You can get your own Sanu lippie necklace today – teleport to the mainstore now.

    Kat Johnston Sketch – look! Its a little bitty owl. Isn’t he ohhhh so cute? I think I need to do some more owls…

    I actually meant to draw this little picture earlier today, but it was not until James inadvertently reminded me by doing something absolutely unrelated to either owls or baths that I remembered that I had to. You see, last night I was taking a nice relaxing bath, sans bubbles, and dozing away. Entirely focused on nothing in particular, my head lolled to the side and a little owl popped out at me from the tiling.

    His eyes went wide, quite startled at being found within the unevenly glazed surface of ceramics stretching along the wall. ‘Oh, oh my!’ said he, fluffing his feathered wings, ‘I certainly didn’t mean to disturb you.’

    ‘Oh, no bother,’ said I, ‘Please, sit a while and talk with me?’

    So he did, and it was rather an interesting conversation, when all is said and done. There is a lot that a little owl within a tile knows, for although he exists only by a trick of the light and stray smattering of a darker shade upon light, he actually seems rather well versed in the ways of the world. That said, he is an owl. They’re meant to be smart!

    Sanu Stuff: a close-up of a work in progress… a locket with a difference.

    Ok, talk of bathroom banter with imaginary owls aside, onto a little bit about Sanu today. The picture above is a capture I took today of a little something I’m working on – a cameo set featuring a bunny I recently put together for the project. Although in this image it seems of a relatively decent size, it is as tiny as can be – I do so love to torture those teensie tiny prims, I do!

    Its a lot of work, but I have to say… the results are just as I wished them, at least at this point. Elegant, refined, ridiculously over-detailed with teensie tiny pieces and a touch of humor to boot. Well… that’s Sanu for you!
