I had heard some interesting events were planned at M&M Creations for the holiday season. A visit there recently revealed a unique shopping experience. They offer a variety of items for landscaping, as well as sculpties and items ranging from lanterns, furniture, gazebos and animals. The creative people behind M&M Creations are 10 and Marcthur Goosson.At the M&M Highlands, 10 and Marc have created a spectacular Mystic Winterland.
I recently met with 10 and Marcthur at their main store in a cozy wintery sitting area.
SS: So I understand you have big plans for the holidays, including treasure hunts. Tell me about some of the other things you are planning.
10G: Well, full of plans, hopefully they (will) all be worked out and become a success. First we wanted to do something like we did last year, discounts on the boxes with sculpties, but to focus only on the sculpts while we have much more to offer is a pity.
SS: Yes, I agree.
MG: Yes , soo much more (to) us.
SS: What kinds of goodies can be had at the treasure hunts?
10G: In the hope our visitors will take their time to see the island, I planned to have a kind of treasure-hunt by making 2 items each day for sale for 1 linden.. only they will stay on their original place and people have to start walking.
SS: Yes, that's what I heard...it sounds like a good plan.
10G: Trees, lights or lanterns....gazebos, maybe even animals, flowers, shrubs...particles, (cacti)...do i need to go on?
SS: It sounds like a lot.
10G Oh, books not to forget those.
SS: And this is kicking off on the 11th?
MG: Yes together with my birthday which (is) also the 11th:-)
10G: Next to that we fill the gift box at the X-mas plateau every day with another gift, an item from our shops around the main store.MG: LOL never coincidences.
10G: That's no treasure or discounted, but just a gift like gifts should be, for free...and to see what can be created with (fashion) sculpties, not only fashion!!
SS: And hopefully come back with their friends. It's a great opportunity for people to get a sample of what is available here.
MG: We are working hard, but SL has grown soo huge that it is difficult to get the right attention.
SS: I can understand that Marcthur.
MG: Marc is ok ;-)
SS: Good, thanks, Marc, easier to type lol.
SS: SL is almost overwhelming in what is available here.
10G: Of course,, we focus mainly on fashion-designers, but it would be boring for us, we simply do not fashion-design, we have the resources for the designers, and the rest is 'having fun with sculpties'.
MG: What 10 says is that we supply sculpties for fashion designers, but our inspiration let us make many more be.
SS: Did you begin with that idea when you started out? I mean, the fashion end of it? I know nothing about fashion design here, but I imagine the sculpies help to make the various pieces of an outfit?
MG: Yes, indeed. We started out with scenery screens.
SS: Yes, sculpties would be helpful in landscape too
MG: And then sculpties arrived which finally gave me an opportunity in RL to make designs in 3D.
SS: That must have been exciting for you :)
10G: (and so it grew and grew and grew)
MG: Exciting YES, and many many hours experimenting :-)
10G: Out of making, building with and selling sculpties grew the questions for explanation or workshops, so tutorials have become a part of my sl-fun. Hopefully I will do some more next year.
SS: I'm sure it could not have grown without your creative input and ideas
10G: I'm happy the pc's are still indoors and the windows aren't broken hahaha.
MG: And of course with the help of so many creative minds here in SL,
SS: Yes, there is a lot of creativity in SL.
10G: That's why we would like to thank all our friends, costumers, designers , they made this all happen and possible as well.
SS: What sets M&M Creations apart from other shops in SL?
MG: Quality for sure, and we offer FULL PERM sculpties...and variety, originality.
10G: Quality.
SS: Full perm, a very nice feature.
MG: And shapes that put other creative minds into work. Others are inspired by us, to make stuff with our shapes they never thought of, and customers are free to inspire us with their ideas.
10G: And we're helpfull, but that's a common thing I noticed last year.
SS: Do you feel that others are in a sense taking your ideas?
MG: Sure we are copied.
S S: I guess there is a lot of that in SL.
MG: But it is ok when others are inspired.
SS: It seems like you manage to remain unique, however.
MG: We are unique in our kind of way, we have our own identity.
SS: The trick is keeping it Marc :)
MG: Hahaha, well, so far so good.
10G: That's why we don't explore entire SL like most do. We never go out looking for others or our competition, so we will stay that way I guess.
MG: I hardly ever explore SL. I visit my customers .
SS: I do not do a lot of exploring either, unless I have a purpose to go somewhere.
MG: Well as a jouralist you should :-)
SS: Things tend to fall into my lap.
MG: That is a good phrase.
SS: Hahaha, I am lucky I suppose.
10G: If we would explore sl we (would) find too much realistic places and it will 'kill' our creativity and own identity in what we do.
10 and Marcthur are a RL couple also affectionately referred to as M&M. Their work in SL is their daily RL work. I found them both to be very creative, interesting and intelligent. Their combined talent is amazing. I would encourage all to participate in their scheduled hunts beginning on the 11th. Further details are provided below.
Every day another FREE gift-in-a-box with an M&M Creation can be found on the X-mas tree-plateau in the middle of the Main Store and TP point in a special M&M GiftBox. Also every day, another SCULPTY BOX created by Marcthur Goosson with a discount from 10%-50%!!! These can be found underneath the tiny X-mas tree standing on the box itself at the Main Store!!
Additional promotions include 2 creations of M&M Trees & Landscaping for sale for 1 linden . Those landscaping-items can be found outside the mainstore at the Natural Park, they will change EVERY DAY!
You need to walk around and click items (such as trees, flowers, lanterns, entrees, shrubs, furniture, gazebos, animals, et.) to find the ' Treasures of the Day'. MAYBE look out for a tiny X-mas tree which could be found near the Treasures.
