@MistressDalgato
I am deeply touched by your incredible thoughtfulness in giving me the statue of my dear friend Trizzy who has passed. The beauty and grace of this gift go beyond words. It means so much to me that her presence will now forever bless my Monentes Jewelry store, radiating her spirit to everyone who visits.
Your kindness has brought tears to my eyes and warmth to my heart, thank you.
A heartfelt thank you as well to the talented creator, @cute, for crafting something so exquisite and meaningful. It’s a masterpiece that carries not just artistry but emotion and memory.
With all my gratitude and love,
Rest in gentle loving peace Triz 💗

I have various circlets and tiaras created at the back of the store by the wedding rings. I was asked to create these when I first started creating jewelry and have loved them ever since; these are always so fun to create and look pretty when worn. three.hills.grid.outworldz.net:8002:Monentes Jewelry
Circlet is created using RhinoGold/Matrix Gold Software.

All this talk about my work as being poor quality crap gave me inspiration! It is true many creations are just that Poor Quality Crap! Who needs it? YOU Do! so we formed a new group where you can find all sorts of Free Crap https://opensimworld.com/groups/1078 Our first giveaway @JamieAnna Wright kindly offers to you!

I posted this image so Leo can see the settings.

As we step into a new year, I want to take a moment to reflect and share something from the heart. For me, every project, every collaboration, and every goal is deeply important. I approach them with care and a genuine desire to help them succeed.

Sometimes, in critiquing or offering suggestions, my words might be misunderstood. I know that criticism can be hurtful, but please know it is never my intention to harm or discourage. My aim is always to help sharpen focus, highlight what works, and guide positive change.

I understand that some may find me strict or perhaps even overly passionate at times, but that intensity comes from love—love for what I do and for the people I work alongside. It’s my hope that this energy inspires growth, understanding, and progress.

As we begin this year, I hope for open hearts, understanding minds, and a shared determination to make this year better than the last. Thank you for being part of my journey, and I look forward to all we will achieve together.

Wishing you a joyful, peaceful, and successful New Year.

As the clock strikes midnight on New Year’s Day, imagine yourself holding a fresh, blank novel with 365 pages—each day a new opportunity to craft your story. This is your book, your chance to pen a tale that reflects your dreams, challenges, and triumphs. What will this year’s story be? Will it be filled with courage, laughter, resilience, or love? Will it show growth, learning, and moments of joy? Each sunrise offers a clean slate to write something meaningful, something that adds to the legacy of your life.

Make this your year to live vividly and authentically, one page at a time.
📖💗📖

Best wishes for an excellent New Year! 2025!

During Christmastime, we pause to take in the beauty and kindness of the season. The spirit of giving inspires us to help those less fortunate or to share simply out of love for humankind. Thank you for giving me your friendship and support. I cherish the laughter we share, your gift of forever smiles makes my season and year bright. Best wishes in the New Year 💗🎄💗

Merry Christmas everyone!! News from 3HG -Thanks all goes to Fred Beckhusen. I just witnessed a server move from Contabo VPS to:

AMD Ryzen 7 8845 with 16 cores and threads. The setup features a 4X x 4X x 2" configuration for high-performance computing.
Key features:
1 Gbps Network delivering reliable and fast connectivity.
NVMe M.2.5 SSD, achieving speeds of up to 6 GB/s, offering 2x the standard 3 GB/s performance for exceptional read and write operations.

I could never have done this without Fred's help , he had to copy numerous times to get full complete backup Contabo was being totally slow and useless he gave me permission to say and I quote: "Contabo sucks donkey balls"

3HG is on a shiny new server that zips right along now - what a huge difference. Fred, your patience and troubleshooting techniques is just mind blowing, I cannot believe what I just witnessed in tech skills. Your determination is what sets you apart, I honestly thought this move was not even possible (Fred says I have a big purse), again you prove me wrong. Thank you and Merry Christmas my Metaverse Santa, it is time to put your feet up by the fire 🎅🏽🎄❄️🎄💗💗💗

All this drone talk I had my own reasoning as to what it was, until I announced the new PBR Metal Materials I created. Seems whoever it is flying them wanted a new updated shiner PBR metal for their craft. You never know who will stop by 👽👁️👁️👽

I added metal PBR Materials in the foyer so that you can edit your jewelry.
Copper, Gold, Rose Gold and Silver, 8 materials in each pack. notes in contents. three.hills.grid.outworldz.net:8002:Monentes Jewelry

You must have the latest Firestorm and the grid has to have the PBR implemented. To test you can come to my grid it is implemented. I have a sandbox where you can test. three.hills.grid.outworldz.net:8002:Sandbox

I woke up to a message from @Ferdzee casually saying, "Oh, by the way, your grid now supports PBR." Wait, WHAT? PBR? You mean DG has PBR now? Yep! Shiny, beautiful gold—Yay! Over time, I'll be updating all my jewelry. It’ll take a while, but the future is looking golden and brilliant! Dreamgrid 5.9 is PBR! Time to update your FS viewers people :) Thank you @Ferdzee you are my Hero!! Yayy

Created a Harvest Ring for those who celebrate harvest and being thankful. Grape clusters and rose leaves, diamond solitaire, in center of the store where I have the PBR jewelry. three.hills.grid.outworldz.net:8002:Monentes Jewelry

When creating my metal for jewelry I found @FredFerderix Outworldz Metal Plates, these give the best effects on metal wow. These work well with ceilings too https://outworldz.com/cgi/free-seamless-textures.plx?c=Met...
(this is not PBR) just using Binn-Phong

We're testing PBR textures, and the results are stunning! This ring, originally created in Second Life, showcases Opensim's full PBR support, bringing every detail to life. Interestingly, when I upload my jewelry to Second Life, the scale appears much larger, but in Opensim, it matches the exact size I designed. This ring was one of my first creations and earned me an Avi Choice nomination for Best New Jewelry Store in SL! I had to nano that ring though because of the huge scale and would not reduce down to the SL Avatar. In opensim it has worked beautifully thanks to @FerdFrederix~ PBR is in its earliest stages but I am loving the results so far. This will be in the store soon. 💍💗 This image is inworld with Sunrise lighting. Lighting affects the color of the metal if the sky is red orange sunset the gold will be red, Fred pointed this out to me yesterday, so a bright mid day you will see the brightest results. I have fun playing with the sky to see what the metal will look like each sky it looks different. Fred's ring compared to mine though that he textured is beyond beautiful, he made the diamond glossy, and translucent and it is just beautiful, so gemstones can be transparent with a tint of color, so many options and we are having fun! All this is coming soon...

I had some time to play with PBR thank you @FerdFrederix for suggesting I try it, and as you can see it makes the jewelry look so much better!! Nice! But that means I have my work cut out for me, I have lots of jewelry to update. I will have a PBR section at the store, keeping the old classic textures because not all grids support PBR, this is the first piece I will get it in the store today sometime, Celtic Knot Picture Locket.

I added a few new bracelets to the Monentes Jewelry store, you will find them in the center of the store near the Classic Closet entrance. Thank you Melanie for the inspiration 💗 yes, I love creating adding more as we speak! Please stop by anytime 🤗

New and Improved steampunk lamp for your desk, please find it in the Monentes Store foyer. Or you can upload one too from this creator: https://www.blenderkit.com/asset-gallery-detail/a34a71d6-a...

I just placed the Nature's Embrace Set out, Update** I fixed it, I had to make the stone really teeny and when I uploaded it in the meshmerizer I increased the size some and it worked. In the store Foyer, at Monentes Jewelry.

Thank you to this creator, All assets are Photogrametry Scans, baked down to lowpoly.
Each with 4k Albedo, normal and roughness Textures.
Albedo delight by hand.

This is one of the first sets that I created, started with a sketch of gem placement. Making gemstone snowflakes it is all about gem placement too.

Grid Hiccups today, I apologize will be back online soon I apologize to @Lillysparks who is so kind to share the surfboard rezzer and wave, I hoped we could get it installed today, sorry Lilly I was so excited! Back soon!

There’s nothing quite like waking up to a delightful breakfast in bed. I’ve designed a beautiful breakfast tray that you can now pick up at the store. It's perfect for treating yourself or for spoiling someone special with breakfast in bed. Enjoy a perfect start to your day with this lovely addition! three.hills.grid.outworldz.net:8002:Monentes Jewelry

Jewelry is a reflection of your personality, and many of the designs have been inspired by your suggestions. I've received touching requests for Journal Lockets, Grandmother's rings, and rings that evoke memories of "Mom." Thank you for these heartfelt ideas. When time allows, I love the challenge of creating something new. Thank you for the inspiration and continued support. 💕
