Skipping Stones Presents The Down the Chimney Hunt
December 6-20

Down the Chimney Hunt!

The best gridwide hunt in Second Life is back! Over 100 top-quality indie, bohemian, eclectic and alternative stores have teamed up to give you an awesome second holiday!

The hunt includes male and female clothiers, skin makers, shoe, jewelry and accessory stores, home goods stores, pose makers, hair creators and more.

The fun starts at the Kunstkammer Main Store in Emmelia. Each gift includes a link to the next store in the hunt, and the last store goes back to the start, (so you can start at any point in the hunt).

August’s Skipping Stones hunt was a smash hit, with many happy hunters and rave reviews. This second hunt promises to be even better, with more stores and new gifts!

The hunt ends at midnight, Dec 20, so don’t miss out!
