Reaching for hope - A slightly belated Fantasy Faire Farewell.
Yeah it took me a bit to get up to this cause of other things happening right as Faire ended.
This years faire was amazing. We raised SO MUCH money for Relay For live and Cancer research and help for families. I am so very honored and pleased to be a part of it.
I got to see one of my oldest friends ever make is spectacular Fantasy Faire Debut . You can watch Merryjests performance called Starfall on youtube
I've known Merry for over 20 years, pre SL and I'm so damn proud of my "brother" I could bust! He even picked the opening song as he knows how much I love the Secret Garden!
I worked with the Children of Stories again this year. This year it was The Desert Foxes of the Sunstone Oasis. The last few years, and espeicaly last year, where very intense and epic , so this years was a little more layed back. Still a fun rp though! You can read all about it and the updates Here!
All the photos I took over the roleplay are at this link
Had a lot of fun about the faire other then just the RP. Lots of fun times going fishing in Plankburrow or just being one of Contraptions hysterical Fish people. You will see that avatar taking a lap about the track next month! Couple bus rides too!
Over the course of the faire many sims added items to their build after events and those are fun changes to find! There where also many quests just for each sim.
I now have giant frogs, three tailed magic cats, funny fish and so much more fun things in my inventory thanks to this faire!
Photos from all the fun times
And of course the party on Junction to watch it fade into the mists when everything is returned to the waters of Linden Labs.
Now to get ready for Relay weekend! June 8th & 9th

I adore this building. It's cozy, filled with sweet little vignettes to delight your eyes and make me take a ton of photos. The tiered garden is just amazing! And so many spots to sit and rest and have a snack with critters to keep you company! And fields of flowers galore!

Silevea - Creators
SLURL to Silevea
Silevea doesn't have as many shops as other sims as it has the FaireChylde but it has some lovely clothing stores AND you can buy sim decor from here!
I GOT MUSHYROOMS AND THE COLUMBINE
YEESSS
Here is the first of two gowns by Enfant Terrible. This is their Salome gown. It comes in a range of colors for the fabric and the leather. I love how it looks so simple but also so very elegant.
Enfant's second gown is called Nesta and it comes in two parts the gown and the harness. And the gown comes in a solid and sheer sleeved version! Very nice!
Moving onto a gown by Azul this is called Kezzy. Its glimmery and sparkly and comes with wings but I didn't wear them. The headdress also comes with the gown! I love its colors and the shimmer is has.
Now for the Decor! The main sim decor is all by Cube Republic. Showing here is what it looks like in the day time. Fae tree and fungus, Mossy paths..which does have some of the Columbine on it and the Moonsilver Columbine. Its so pretty!
And lastly a HOUSE from Dragon Magick Wares called Darach Cottage. it is a two story two room house and I just LOVE that big front window!

In Silevea, the air is heavy with the earthy fragrance of mushrooms and the mystical allure of the enchanted fen, marking the realm of the Sylvan Spore Fae. These diminutive and elusive beings are the guardians of the mushrooms and the stewards of the water’s edge. The waters are said to hold ancient magic, whispering secrets of old to those who listen. Edging these mystical waters, the Mushroom Groves maintain a quiet watch. Far from ordinary, these fungi display a vivid and varied array, from imposing toadstools with vast, shield-like caps to fragile mushrooms that seem woven from the essence of moonlight and shadows. Their hues are borrowed from the forest’s own palette—lush greens, earthy browns, and sporadic bursts of surreal, vibrant colors.
*Official text from the Fantasy Faire page*All of my photos of the sim can be seen at this link here I was always going to love Silevea because its a mushroom focused build. And what a glrious range of glowing magical mushrooms it is!
But then!
BUT THEN!
I noticed that the little blue flowers that line the paths......are...COLUMBINES! A magical Moon Columbine.
Columbines are my favorite flower! To the point that my fairy persona I use when I preform professionally at Renaissance Faires is NAMED Columbine!
So this has made Silevea my favorte sim of this years Fantasy Faire sims!
Go explore its mushroomy goodness! Say hello to another Tammy or the many mushroom people that populate it.
Or go join the fun on the FaireChylde With friends and good music!

But if you want the cool EEP with that moon you gotta do the Faire Quest! It's the region gift for it!
For the first piratey outfit I have here from Antaya and it is their Pirate outfit "Bree" and their matching pirates hat. Its simple but fun and the hat has seashells on it!

This is a mix and match three piece outfit by Senzafine. Kezia top, Inez Bolero Shrug, and Esma skirt.! I love the colors on it.
This last outfit is one of the many fabulous Mer tail skins you can find! This glistening golden skin is by Krature and is a part of their Princess tail line. SO pretty!
I also have one some mer additions by Antaya , the scales and the shells. The pose is from a creator on Lolliocalypse called Dreamcatcher simply called Mer bento
Now for decor!

These three aquariums come from ERG and are from their Pipe aquarium range.

Fantasy Faire 2024 Sim - Plankbarrow Harbor
PLANKBARROW HARBOR | SLURL
Sponsored by ::Static::
Region by Nama Gearz
A Shopping Region
Within the veil of Plankbarrow Harbor, an eternal misty night blankets the floating shanty town. Legend says, every hundred years the wandering pirate den may find itself close enough to land for non-seafaring thieves and bilge rats to come aboard. Only to be entered by pirates under a peaceful pact for refuge, merriment and trade, and those of any crest or creed are welcome. But be warned. Best to Jump ship before the ghostly harbor drifts back into the mists or you’ll be a stowaway for the next hundred years…
*Official text from the Fantasy Faire page*All of my photos of the sim can be seen at this link here
From the serenity of Duskfall to the dark and mysterious Plankbarrow. Wrecks of old pirate ships pile upon each other and form a floating island of sorts. With enough places for people to set up shop in. Atop the middle is a nearly fully intact ship that rises up and seems to sail atop the others. All looked over by a full moon with a bit of a secret in it.
Scattered about the lower areas are creatures of many kinds. All matter of Flotsam and Jetsam. And if you know where to look or just ask, theres even a place you can set up and fish!
Walk along the paths, but tread careful! one wrong step and your shark or squid food!
