Fantasy Faire 2012 is happening now through April 29. The
Faire is a fantastic event and part of Relay for Life, which collects money to
help in the fight against a real world evil: cancer. At the end of Day One, Zander Green reported
that over $6500 U.S. Dollars had been collected for the American Cancer
Society. In addition to the featured
sale items, many events are planned throughout the week, including music and dancing,
Jail-n-Bails, auctions and more.
The Faire has eight
Fairielands: Devil’s Locket, Jungle
Bungle, Nu Orne, Shadow's Claw, Shifting Sands, Siren's Secret, Meandervale, and
The Tides. I started at Meandervale
(128, 68, 23).
Meandervale is a lonely sim sponsored by The Looking
Glass. It is decorated with giant sunflowers,
orange slices, butterflies and windmills.
There are six featured stores and ten themed stores. Clothes, accessories, wings, and more—there is
something for everyone and every budget.
At The Looking Glass you can find all types of steampunk and
fantasy clothing and articles for your home and castle. If you
don't have a castle, you can even buy one of those here, too. Two of my favorites were Castle Ruins Lodge
and the Wizards Retreat. They also have
boots, goggles, and capes. There are
cute Rocking Horses to ride and buy. A
whole section of the store is devoted to tinies, too.
Fantavatar & Moonstruck, which features clothes, shoes,
and other wonderful items, are auctioning a one-of-a-kind fountain made
especially for Fantasy Faire 2012. The
Pater Tiberino Fountain commemorates the day when Romulus founded the City of
Rome in 753 B.C. The god Tiberino is holding a trident in one
hand and an amphora in the other. The
lovely sound of the water and the graceful butterflies make this a perfect
item.
In addition to Fantavatar & Moonstruck there are five
other featured stores: Boudoir, Weather! or not?, Material Squirrel Wings, Angelwing,
, and Vaengi Wings, as well as ten themed stores.
At one of the themed stores, Grim Brothers, I found a great pair
of Noah's Arc shoes. They’re quite a conversation starter and fun
to wear. Even better, I know that my
Lindens went to support a great cause.
Another themed store, The Elegant Goth, was new to me. They have fun furniture like the Mad Hatters
Tea Party and other interesting gothic furniture. A few vendors
are giving out freebies, such as a pretty fountain available at An Lema and an
animated Forest Candle at Star Journey Academy.
But the reason for the Faire is to support the fight against
cancer. Kiosks and signs throughout the
sim provide information and accept donations for this worthy cause.
