It’s St. Patty’s day and another exciting new hunt at the beautiful Magic of Oz! All of the items pictured and credited below can be found in the hunt!

Leprechauns by Risusipo Chipmunk Shop, find them in the hunt!

Only in Oz does it rain gold! How does the Cuardach work? Easy as one, two, three!

Step 1. Look around. There are gold coins spawning randomly all over the sim. When you see one, click it. It will disappear and you will get a coin in your inventory.

Step 2. Wear your golden coin. It will appear in your hand and tell you which shop to visit to get your gift. Find that shop in Oz.

Step 3. There will be a leprechaun’s pot of gold somewhere in the shop. You need to be within 2 meters of the pot, then click your coin. REMEMBER TO CLICK THE COIN AND NOT THE POT =D You will receive your gift!

Some additional information:

The coins are one use only! Discard the coins after you receive your gift, they will not work again.

If the vendor has put more than one item in the pot of gold, it will distribute the gifts AT RANDOM. This means that you will need to collect multiple coins to get all of a vendor’s gifts and it may take quite a few tries to get them all.

Ex-pose is a new pose store that specializes in couples’ poses. A collaboration between Milli Santos and Chaddi Masala, what I love about their poses is that majority of them are sweet and romantic, something rare to find.

(Pose coming soon!)

All of their poses will be available at OnRez. They also have a group on Flickr where you can upload images you’ve taken using their poses.

(Pose coming soon!)
Quiet time

They are constantly updating and adding more to the store daily. A couple of the poses pictured have not been released as of yet, but will be in a day or two, along with many others.

Cheeky kiss

If you are a builder, another great service they offer is “full perm” animations in case you want to add something special to your creations.

Surrender

Bookmark their blog to keep up to date on newest releases!

So far they can be found in four locations but their mainstore is on the beautiful Oubliette sim.

A special thank you to Catero Revolution for taking the time out of his busy schedule to pose with me.

Taken from a Magic of Oz release regarding their special Candy Cane Frolic:

On December 17th @ 9am SLT Magic of Oz will open its door to a special Candy Cane Frolic. What is a Frolic, you ask? Well, it is a super fun event where you frolic about looking for candy canes, of course! Any similarity to a HUNT is purely coincidental.

How do you Frolic? It’s as easy as one, two, three!

Step 1. Look around. There are candy canes spawning randomly all over the sim. When you see one, click it. It will disappear and you will get a gift tag. (Oooh, you know what gift tags mean, right? Presents!) Red Candy Canes contain unlimited items and Green Candy Canes are limited – only 10 green candy canes will drop per hour.

Step 2. Wear your gift tag. It will appear in your hand and tell you which shop to visit to get your gift. Find that shop in Oz.

Step 3. There will be a green striped gift with ruby slippers somewhere in the shop. You need to be within 2 meters of the gift, then click your tag. You will receive your gift!

This is a sneak and exclusive preview of what you will see December 3rd @ 9am SLT when Magic of Oz opens its door again to the public. A beautiful winter wonderland.

From Munchkin land to the Witch’s Lair, the whole place is covered in snow and even more beautiful than it was before.

So follow me down the yellow brick road and visit when they open their doors at 9am SLT.

The owners of Taste of India, the Desi mall and club, have acquired a whole sim and have really turned the place around. 

As you can tell by the pictures the build and texturing is quite stunning and is loosely based on the Mysore Palace in Southern India. There is talk of eventually turning this into an RP sim but for the moment it is a beautiful shopping mall full of some of the best designers in indian fashions.

All around the Palace you will see gorgeous stores to be rented, some are still available! Some of the well known indian designers you might find here already are {Zaara}, FallnAngel Creations, and Vlintuition. If you are interested in renting a shop at this beautiful indian mall, please contact Sam1177 Alito or Perdita Lacey for further inquiries.

Inside the palace is a club called Desi Beatz where they have weekly events and contests. So if you like to listen to bollywood music, you can search for the group “Club hot spot” and join it to know about the events and prizes.

Take the slurl now and check out this beautiful new sim: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Odessa%20Charming/33/138/23
