Tater Memorial Rune Library Just wanted to enter in the large house category the Tater Memorial Rune Library. Runes are positioned so you can recall in and access them from outside. No Doors!!

You really like those shadow candelabras! Took me a long time to clean up the roof of the sandstone you sold me! Diamonds sold nice though
My entry for the small house category: ALL HAIL THE KING (sorry, not blaise) A tribute to one of my favorite shows of all time!
ReZon's Tower (Large House Entry) I started working on this when the House Decor Contest was announced. Here is what I have accomplished on my limited play schedule. My focus has primarily been on the first floor but I have included the other floors as well. Hope you like them, and good luck to everyone! 1F 1F - Closeups The Mason Corner - Too thrifty to use valorite ingots when making statues, we use plain old rocks and valorite paint! The Craft Room - Here is where we spend our time crafting and staring at shiny things... The Lobby / Pub - Sit back, relax, enjoy the band, play some cards, and eat some food. The Stairway - The shelves are getting full from the holiday loot! 2F - The Library - Where the weary travelers come seeking their purpose in life. 3F 3F - The Bed Room, Training Area 3F - Kitchen 3F - Dining Area 4F - The Humble Roof
I just got the fort yesterday, I'm not a big Deco kinda person, but i have massive OCD, so here I present my fort where you can see I horde everything and can give Martha Stewart a run for her money with organization. Secure gate in/out area with a complete rune library and all secure containers. You also see my magic armor organization in the apartments. Restock and misc. items area. Magic weapons area and front of the house. I haven't even stepped foot on the other floors except to place table walls. This thing is freaking massive, anyone that can decorate this thing and make it look non-empty should win this category IMO.
Ok, I think I am done with the decoration attempt. But there are a few days left. I am entering the house in the "Best Decorated Medium House Includes: Sandstone, Log Cabin, Villa" category. There are also a couple of unique design elements, at least to me they are . I also wrote up a narrative to explain the house, theme and why I decorated it the way I did. Yew Ole Workshop is a working and functioning vendor shop in Yew. It looks good, but first and foremost it is functional. Check the Item counts and weights of the chest to prove out this statement, The ingot stack are not just decoration. This house is a tribute to my UO interests, play style and achievements. When you come upon the Shop, notice the fishing nets including my prized colored net. To the left of the door is a small rune library to spawning rare locations. Inside and out you can see the semi rare items I have collected using those runebooks which are available to the public. Pixels are for everyone is my motto. You can immediately see the fishing loot on the front of the Shop. The custom lanterns are composed of my most prized trophies from the inaugural Pirate Invasion on either side of the entrance. The final piece of important decoration is the birthday cake on the far left. As you walk through the front door you are immediately struck by the open floor plan. Utilizing hidden blocking objects, the shop area is free from the clutter of small tables. If you look to your left you will see the main workbench comprised of Stone and Marble for that unique yet durable appearance. The forge is compact arrangement with a stacked anvil to save floor space. Across the middle of the floor plan denoting the back of the public shop is the smith's stack of ingots. The custom shelving holds all raw materials, tools and finished products ready for sale on the 3 vendors. The colored BOD books at the bottom of each shelf denotes the Craftsman Skill of the shelf stack. Grey for Smithing, Orange for Carpentry and Green for tailoring. Separating the working area of the shop from the living quarters is a custom Swinging Door feature backed by a hanging tapestry to give both visual and sound isolation. It is here that the craftsmen and Shop Owner relax after a hard day in the shop. A large custom fireplace across the back of the room roasts a Whopper of a Fish for supper. Decorations adorning this room range from Tailoring rewards to Fishing exploits as well as the adventures of hunting Ancient Treasure from sunken ships and World invasion events. Next we progress upstairs to the private shop owners quarters. More trophies from Sossarian adventures adorn this room. The very first large painting I ever fished up is here along with the first Marble object (small pillar) I ever made. Atop the pillar is one of the trophies from an early event on UOR for me. As you exit out to the balcony, you will see a fine sheep pen. Sheep farming is a hobby for me that helped me get my start here. There is plenty of green grass, feed, water and hay for bedding. There is never overcrowding with my sheep. Sheep will always have a honored place in my home. In keeping with the working shop theme, the tailoring station is strategically placed next to the farm. This concludes my entry into the contest. Win, lose or draw, it was fun decorating. Remember this not a glass house decoration. I live and operate vendors out of this location. I have obviously exceeded the available lockdown count, but am confident that the house security is strong. Key/unique design elements include the open vendor floor plan, the swinging door separating the living quarters and the custom shelving for all my crafting supplies. All this was done with what I consider easy to obtain items. There are no ultra rares, no million gold worth of rewards. All were earned by me through crafting, playing, farming and trading. This place is proof that anyone can rise from noob to respected player in a few short months. Thanks
Entry 1: Massive House Category - Gideon's Tavern The view from out front: *I'm particularly happy with the way this turned out - I spent a long time trying to figure out how to make the exterior work with the stonework. Smithy: Tailor: Bar and Spawning Rares Library: Game Table and Runebook Library: Vault: Courtyard: Kitchen: First floor: *I'd really recommend people try using stone tables specifically with the furniture dye tubs - I think they turn out the best. You can see the dark red one here. My favorite part of the entire house is still the dyed runebooks - pooling plat with other people to accomplish that was a lot of fun. Valentine's Display (thanks Deacon!), Storage Closet, and Water Feature: Obligatory Necromancer Room: Grow Room: Raised Fish Tank and Master Bedroom: Second floor: *You can see the rewards for the bi-monthly Guide Writing Contest in the main living room. I'm really happy with how the water feature worked out here. Cat Statue: Water Feature and Stage Area: Fireplace and 1st Year Anniversary Display: Stable: *I put a lot of different ideas together to make the stable. I used some ideas taken from other houses I've seen for the hanging plants and boxes and I put in my own idea of the wooden floors which I think turned out well. Roof: *You can see most of the water feature here. I'm really happy because I was finally able to make the roof accessible to the public. This has been a long time goal and making it happen was rather difficult. Entry 2: Unique Design Element Category - Cat Statue on Water Gideon's Tavern would not have been successful without these two establishments: Entry 3: Medium House Category - Gideon's Tavern Yew Bank Not an Entry - Gideon's Tavern Yew Gate Please feel free to come by and check out the properties as they are all open to the public. I'd like to thank everybody who has helped me over the past year - it took a lot of help to make it happen. I'd also like to thank everybody who's posted and continues to post pictures of their deco - I've borrowed tons of great ideas and hope to keep seeing new ones. UOR!!
