Following the inspiring work of Cherlindrea and her girls over at FabFree, Brookelyn Georgia has put an outfit together that didn’t cost her a thing. Here’s the photo and her comment:
I made it a personal challenge to see if I could make a good looking avatar completely free. This is the result. Skin: Another Store – Se brow1, greed Shape: Original shape modified in appearance Hair: Diversity: Free Hair Voucher – TrystII Dune Eyes: House of Zen – Freebie Eyes Package – green Glamour Face Light and Prim Eyelashes: Alady Complete Outfit and Shoes: DD’s Freebee found at Calla Jewelry: Miriel Free Jewelry found at The Free Dove
Ultimately there are so many great freebies available that it really does not have to cost you much to look good. I’d like to end this reader style with a quote from Cherlindrea’s blog about being gracious about freebie items:
1. Do not whine to the designers about their freebies.
2. Do not whine to the designers that the freebie is not your favorite color, style, etc.
3. If you don’t like the freebie, say thank you and move on with your life.
4. Stop trying to ruin all the freebies and specials for the rest of us.
5. Be grateful you got anything at all.
6. When complimented on your freebie wardrobe, thank the person and offer them the landmark for the store you got the item at. (Suggested by: Devilish Cupcake)
7. When unpacking your boxes in a build area, do not be a litterbug. Pick back up or delete your empty box. Do not leave any object on land without the owner’s permission. (Suggested by: Lyselle Munro)
8. Do not resell your freebie. (Suggested by: Io)
Feel free to add anything to this list.
Thank you Brookelyn for your lovely outfit, and thank you Cher for your great work on the Fab free blog!
