Gussy Up

an opalescent satin tent, Lich #23945, go satin tent

[Gussy Up]
Swathes of opalescent satin drape from the tent supports to form the walls enclosing this small area, and the trio of silver-shaded lamps dangling overhead provide ample lighting. Along the back of the tent is a long frosted glaes counter with a thin-limbed crystal tree and a mirrored square dish resting atop it. Nearby, a three-tiered glass display table sits beneath a silver square-framed mirror securely bracketed to a pair of support poles.

For All Time

an ebon and crimson bourde tent, Lich #23935, go crimson tent

[For All Time]
Long skeins of ebon and crimson bourde drape from a central ring that rests at the top of an ebonwood pole, their long ends falling in unfettered folds to the ground to create a circular space that is shielded from the elements.

A Spring Affair

a large pale peach wagon, Lich #23949, go pale wagon

[A Spring Affair]
The walls of the wagon have been painted in homage to a bright spring day, with green trees leafing out toward the ceiling and pastel flowers blooming beneath. The floor underfoot is colored and textured to appear as grass. On one side of the wagon, an ivory female mannequin and a green male mannequin are settled beneath the verdant overhang of a river willow with a picnic blanket beneath them. Across the way, a violet female mannequin is seated on a swing mounted to an overhead beam, while a blue male mannequin seems frozen in the act of pushing.
