The Fairylands are ablaze with shops, art,
music and even a Quest,
all in support of the American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life. With 13
Fairylands and a wide variety of
activities available, there’s a way for everyone to support and
participate in
this event. I had a difficult choice to make in deciding where to
begin. Finally I chose to start in Bright Haven (194/127/49).
Bright Haven is
sponsored by Callie Cline’s KittyCatS! I’ve
been a longtime fan of these little cuties, and I love to shop. There are 18 stores in Bright Haven-- perfect
for me.
I arrived in
front of the signature KittyCatS! shop and went inside for a quick look at the
kittens. There’s a huge variety inside
ranging from tiny kittens to a large, friendly tiger. There’s accessories and
food, too. I was greeted by Cinnamon
Tortie, one of the customer support staff who was working that day. She
was friendly and helpful as we chatted about the Faire. She
told me that Callie Cline created some new items for the Faire, including the
fairy cat statue, a multi-color flower scratching post, and a shoulder size
kitty for the Quest. Exclusive items,
like the statue, will only be available during the Faire.
After getting
a couple of scratching post flowers, I hurried off to the other shops in the
village. I noticed a lot of visitors that
morning, including Ąķį (aki.kira), Zane (julienbrimstone), Nacho (nacholibra), Mystik
Blackhawk, and Piccione Verino. One of
them, daviid815, spoke to me as we walked along the cobbled street. “Any cool
place you recommend me to go?” he asked, explaining that he was new to this
exciting, huge world. It was great to
meet a new, friendly resident. I gave
him a few suggestions and watched as he hurried off to explore Bright Haven.
I made a
quick stop in the KittyCats’ Creations, a tavern where I found some fun Gotcha’s
and tasty treats. The Seamstress Shop,
found at Bright Haven (142,41,50), was one of my favorites. Owned by Geryn Sloane, it featured lots of
special items for the ladies. The shop
is charming and filled with bolts of cloth, a spinning wheel, looms, and even a
sleeping kitty.
Even more
lovely gowns could be found at Les Encantades, located across the street. Many of them were only 250L, a great bargain
for a great cause. If you need furniture, there are stores
selling it, too. I saw dressers, tables,
and even a chiminea for only $175L. Mystic Sky, owned by Skyler John, has great
outfits for both men and women. Gifties,
too! At "Designs by Isaura” there
were fairie dolls and Galactic Princess outfits. Very stylish.
