What I want to talk about more is the new crafting and you can craft a house!!! This house is is my dream come true everything I ever wanted in housing, I already bought the recipe, now this isn't just like any other crafting this is crafting the way crafting should be, you need to craft items to craft this house, how great is that. This house has a hidden tower which can be made into a guest house ;) , tunnels and turns through out the entire house, can you feel my mind turning already with ideas? I will post a video of this amazing house. Not only do we get this house to craft but we get new furniture items to craft food, kitchen cabinets! and so much more :) I will be spending my next few days in test crafting and designing a new house, testing all the new items. Until next time, happy house decorating.

Dorm Decorating 101

Greetings Wizards,
Today I think I'll talk about dorm rooms, yes those little rooms can be made something very special. It is a little space for 50 items and 50 pets and can be made into anything you want. I have some that are themed and some that are mainly for crafting, I even have some that are a simple nice little room to sit in while I am away from the keyboard( afk).


First lets talk simple dorm rooms, you already get a bed , end table, stool desk and a couple of vases, by simply questing a new wizard you can get many other items as banners , books and much more, I was even able to pick up a few free items along the way. I still got a nice little room and have spent nothing on it. All this and still not out of Wizard city. Picture below






Next step to take this simple room to something a bit more would be to add wall paper and floor tiles. Wizard city furniture shop has some nice looking ones , 3 pages of them!. No need to ever go out of Wizard City yet. For less than 300 gold I got some really nice flooring and paper, I got some wizardly wall paper and wooden floor tiles. Now look at our dorm room. Picture below.





Now I am not one to stay simple , so let me show you a themed dorm. This dorm is based on a water theme ,yet is still a functional dorm, in meaning functional as in school dorm room. I have a bed , which is the boat, it also allows for reading and studies. Picture below.



















Now lets talk about detail for themes. In every theme Like this one in the pictures below you need to pay attention to the smallest details. This is my Marleybone Jail, details are very important, along with function, ask yourself does this look like what it should ? Does it function like it would like this place would? As you see details from a cat thug, milk bottle, police desk and much more. Details mean so much when creating a themed image, if the details are not there no one else will see your theme but you. Until next time, happy house decorating.

Housing Segment

Greetings Wizards,


As I have been asked by so many people how do you do that, I have decided I'll give out the secret. Just remember This is not needed to make an amazing house, I have seen some houses that never use this at all and I was Wowed by them ;) I have even made many houses without this technique. I will wont say it is a necessity to do this even but I know many people like this technique.
















How to raise an item 101:
Items you will need 3 small rugs ( I like the small blue trimmed easy bought of WC shop), either a tic tac toe board or chess board depending on size of area, creates ( jellybeans , hot dogs , pudding ,ect...) ,depending on how high you want to go and a few tatami mats if you item is very big, shown in a earlier segment.
Step 1: Take 2 boxes and place them side by side, now take 2 small rugs place them end to end as in picture, place them on the side by side boxes. Next move the boxes apart ,is best to move the box with only half rug on it, you should have 2 boxes with rugs on it now,Seen in picture above.





Step 2: Take a small rug and a board and put them together as I posted in a earlier segment.( pet house one) move only the rug and place it on one of the rugs so you see this as in picture above.Now you can place any item you want on that board , next your going to highlight the rug and pick it up (only the rug ) to leave the raised item ,you can now remove any boxes left.


Hope this helps answer some questions,until next time, happy house decorating.

Paige's Pet Sanctuary Completed

Sorry if the quality is a bit bad I need a better hyper cam , anyone?

Greetings wizards,
Looks like Paige's Pet Sanctuary is done! Let me explain the areas while you watch :). First area is my version of unicorn way. As we move on you might see a few changes as I has said in one of the earlier posts sometimes things just don't look the way they need to be and you might have to change or remove an item, such as fencing around unicorn way also you will see the statue in middle area is now a cherry blossom tree , statue just didn't fit into theme. Next area is the piggle stage :) upper and lower area of stage for dancing pets seating for visitors has been change to look more appealing and Rat magician is now the conductor for music :). On to more view of outside, we even have a little beach front for those desert pets.


Lets move into the house . First floor we have visitor seating , can you see the candle lit standing claw sconce? simple easy use the carved podium to float the candle then place sconce under it. We have a small area for visitor refreshments, hum seems Micky ice colossus wants some ice cream &pet feeding station, with bowls for the flying pets and land pets. As we move to 2nd floor we find a enchanted forest area for all your inside pets to enjoy. Pet caretakers quarters so he can watch over all your pet while your not at your house, seems to me he is not keeping up with his duties ;). We need to be very quite as this top floor is our nursery for all your eggs that are still waiting to hatch , we have sitting area so friends can come and visit with eggs to help them along.

Hope everyone enjoyed the show , now to next project. If you would like to learn some tips and tricks let me know and I can post them here with how to tips. Until next time, happy house decorating.

We also have a pet caretakers area where he can sleep and watch over all the pets. We got trees and plants inside simple really just the small rug and board , place tree on board pick up rug. I'll give you a few views of these rooms to get a feel of it all. Hope you like them.









Next I have started the playhouse making a stage and viewing area for all the watch the dancing pets on stage, added a piano for the and seating for guest. Look we even have a piggle dance floor, I am still looking for the right lighting for this area ,oh housing idea spot lights for stages ;) wouldn't that be great? I know it still need work to look special but it is a start.





Just to let everyone know my computer almost ready and soon ill be back on the game full time :D YAY. so until next time, happy house decorating.Oh I almost forgot I'll be hosting a special contest soon,but I'll give details for that later on ;)
