i am sure the in-laws would sit far away from that item

Yes, I am sure that Chef Gaspacho has one in his kitchen to help him think up all those strange recipes like Slippamarink Sandwiches.

As always, it is a pleasure talking with you Miss Spots!

Fuzzy --

So nice of you to visit.

Yes, the sunken ship is new. The Sunken Ship is an eStore item. It costs seven dollars. For those seven dollars, you get three parts that can be used together or separately. It is animated, huge and very detailed. Each of the pieces measures 2x2 spaces, which means it takes up 12 spaces in the room. It goes outside and underwater only.

Is that enough detail for you?



I hope that this helps. Thanks for the compliment on the rooms. We designers love the encouragement!

I have never been into pirates but your ship looks like a wonderful and magical place to visit and stay. I love your stories that tie it all together so wonderfully. The great whimsy spread threw out. I also love that you have immortalized Philip, what a gift for us all to have him remembered in such a wonderful way. What child wouldn't love it even us big children.

Thank you so much.

Your comments here have made my day. I never planned to immortalize Philip, I just wanted to make him smile and laugh. When Legalcat told me that Philip would laugh out loud at the silly webkinz pirate stories that I posted on his caringbridge site, I decided to name my ship after him. And I must admit, I kept doing pirate stories because he inspired me.

I think that all of us at WI took his loss hard. When I found a little W Cares Lion one day in Walgreens, I knew that one would be my special memorial to my favorite Pirate King.

It was an absolute pleasure having you visit my ship, particularly since you are one of the most amazing and inventive house designers on WI. I am so glad that the decorating trophy found its way home to your wonderful and whimsical horse stable.

Huzzah!

Wow is an understatement. Your ship is Tip-Top. I love the sunken ship area, and after reading your post it is nice to know the specs of it. Your ship is definitely awe inspiring.

Can't wait to see more!

I LOVE the new kitchen. You are so great at mixing different themes.

Ahoy Hmm! I don't think I have commented on your new holiday brunch room and your revised Galley yet although I have looked at them over and over. They are fabulous. Your brunch room is a totally unique underwater room and a great entry for the contest. The columns you used for the candles look wonderful (maybe I did tell you that - it seems familiar when I type it but maybe I just thought about typing it?!?). I tried using a column in that way in one of my rooms last night but the candle didn't work in that room (the column looked great LOL!). And your galley - wow! What a change. I hope the honemooners love it when they get home (they should!). My eye keeps getting drawn to the windows every time I look at the room. I love the open feeling they give the room.

By the way, check out my siggy! I am so excited - I finally started my own house thread. I wish I had the creative flair that you do and could come up with a storyline for the thread but alas, that probably will not happen (or at least not now - maybe some day inspiration will strike). I hope people enjoy it anyways.
