My new sculpture/meditation garden

Lasia2 · 03-16-2006, 06:05 AM

Making good use of the newer items to decorate with....

For some reason the stone walls like to eat partof the tapestries, so it was a bit of a PIA...placing on top of paintings, etc.

The purple bushes are the high elf race, and the yellow flowers are from both the Wood Elf and Halfling...altho the halfling quest to get them is much shorter and easier than wood elf. Both of these I've managed to do in about 5 minutes...create character, run off the island, run through the quest, run to SQ. (god its nice not to have to gain citizenship in order to get into SQ now)

What kind of indoor pool is that?

Lasia2 · 03-17-2006, 07:30 PM

Pool of Divinity, guild level 30 city merchant item.

Reminds me of a semi well done morrowind house. Nice to know you can someday attain that kind of look though.

Love your garden, Lasia!I know what you mean about those walls eating tapestries. That is a PIA! I've been resetting the tapestry on my patio every time I zone in. Did you manage to solve the problem? You mentioned putting paintings under the tapestries. Could you go into that a bit more?

Morlach · 03-19-2006, 09:42 PM

Well, since the tapestries are so big, I had to use the biggest painting....the rough linen. a bit off to the side of where I wanted the tapestry, otherwise you cant pick it back up. then just make sure that the rod the tapestry hangs from appears on top of the painting, not sunken into it.

for that much much bigger tapestry from the collection quest, I had to go farther even and stack up freeport counters, sinking them into the wall as much as possible, removing all but the top two. then hang the tapestry from them, and then remove. This leaves that tapestry floating out a few little feet from the wall, but since its the back wall you don't really notice it much....couldn't just use the paintings for this one, even using those the dang thing sunk into the wall at the bottom.

sometimes i've heard people say that when placed items shift when youplace them, if you zone out and then back in, the item will be where you intended it to be....opposite with these tapestries. just when you think they're ok and not in the wall....you come back in later to find them half-eaten. :/

Very nice! I'm a newbie decorator, where do the tapestries come from?

They are lvl 68 and 69 Carpenter common recipes, or the bigger versions are Kingdom of Sky collection quest rewards.

I find using paintings to get em out a little works, I just started on my home again, about to get an upgrade to a 3 room home on Nagafen PvP, but atm my home has Draconic Tapestries covering all walls, it looks so far to be a nice study.
