Krissmuss Letter 2021


Happy Krissmuss! It's time for the third annual Twisted Krissmuss letter from Aznana and me. 

After working on our cabin for a year, we've almost got it finished the way we envisioned it and we've gone from being "those kids from the city" to "that couple who live in the glade". We're still able do all our work online and have gotten used to the solitude. It's hard to remember the days when we lived in a city and worked in an office all day.


Our family has grown. We added a Samoyed puppy named Sammy when he was just tiny and he's starting to eat us out of house and home. He's really good natured and Azzy spoils him rotten. The two of them are always up to no good and all I can do is try not to laugh too hard at them when they get into some predicament involving skunks or other not so friendly neighbors.

Our life is good. Hope yours is as well! Happy Holidays and Good Health to you and yours.

  • PJs from Secrets of Gaia come in two styles for both male and female avatars. L$100 each and can be gifted. "I can get you on the naughty list" on the front "Meet me in the bedroom" on the back. The Spicey Sweet green version Azzy is wearing is a free gift in the Krissmuss shop * 
  • Dekute Decore ~ Classic Twisted Chair* and Sofa* Holiday editions are L$100 each and can be gifted. Cynical Door mat also from Dekute 
  • Pixelancer Stocking with or without animated tentacles and blood comes in 4 color combos @ L$100 each and can be gifted

Aii & Ego Will Make Your Skin Crawl


Aii & Ego present a wonderful new Animesh Centipede called Oomukade [A monster having the lower body of a centipede that mainly inhabits the Zipangu Region. The upper body has the form of an alluring beauty that gives off a dark vibe]. 
The hud includes 18 preset colors to use with or without advanced lighting (see the comparison below to see the difference that turning on advanced lighting makes*). 
The hud also allows you personalize your centipede body by coloring individual parts and by adding tattoos, gloss, and glow.
You'll find Oomukade 
@ Necrotize until November 20. You can pick up the DEMO at Necrotize or in the Aii & Ego MAIN STORE.

If you want to go all out as an arachnid, in the booth next to the Aii&Ego display Bespoke has unisex Yokai centipede head/skin sets made to go with the centipede body. 

One nice thing about having been in SL forever is that I have seen some delightful developments as the technology improves. One of my very early blogging assignments was the centipede body that Aii made in 2015. If you'd be interested in seeing the contrast between that version and this one, click HERE.

Dancing in the Graveyard


Dancing with joy at this EXCLUSIVE outfit  from [QE] Designs @ Trick or Treat Lane. It comes complete with jewelry and boots and offers 3 Gothy colors in the hud. It's pretty, sexy and wonderfully well done.

I paired the outfit with EXCLUSIVE Nails from Eventyra. This is the new product name and look for an old favorite, DP Koffin Nails. Same great quality and variety with a new logo and a sleek new hud.

The only thing better than visiting Trick or Treat Lane for the first time is returning so that you can take pictures of yourself wearing the goodies you purchased. 
ToTL is one of the few sales events of the season that not only offers quality products at very reasonable prices and free gifts for all, but provides a number of scenarios throughout the region that are perfect for taking photographs.
