New Content for July/4th of July Decorations

Hello all! Some of you already know, but I have finally gave in to downloading Fashion Story! 
Although I'm low level, I'll be trying my best to post FS goals now. 

Anyways,  we had our regular weekly update and in Restaurant Story, there has been a craze for the Farmer's Market ! 
I myself have purchased it :) 

Here we have QT Kitchen's Restaurant again!! 
I'm featuring her again because she has used the new content of July
 She has a beautifully summer themed restaurant using the Farmer's Market, elegant tables that go great with an earthy organic feel, like the Sunflower, Red Foliage, Tangerine, Organic, Spring Bloom, and Jasmine Tables. 
I love how she has put the Playful Parasol girl browsing the market, along with the Vegetable Display and Birdhouse on the wall. Close by the Lemonade Stand is placed which I think is a great complimentary edition to the Market. 
She also has new Tye Dyers At Work decoration which is a 4x4 piece along with the Tye Dye Tables. 
Props to her for buying the most expensive tables RS has had in a while with 96k coins
There are so many great things about QT's Restaurant ! Keep up the good work :D


Recommended by QT, cleo's Restaurant features items from the World Games update, a little 4th of July corner, the Pier goals and Cowboy goals. 
What I love about her Soccer corner is that she has bought the Track tiles and Astro Turf Tiles. Also, showing some USA pride, an American Flag stands in the center next to the Halftime Snacks. The Referee Waitress is so adorable standing next to the Champion Trophy. The TeamLava Pennants and Soccer Lanters compliment the theme and give off a spirited feel !
In the 4th of July corner, she put a Marching Band to capture the essence of a 4th Parade ! Some cities like my little hometown has a Carnival /Fair which is why I personally love her restaurant. 
She has the items from the Carnival Goal and Lemonade Stands and many games! 
I love it Cleo !! 


Cleo's also has the Farmer's Market ! Behind the Vegetable Stands she's cooking the Farmer's Market Salsa 
Hiding behind the Organic Table is as little Persian Cat. Can you find it? 
And in front of the Market, she has a little Tye Dying Center :) with the Tye Dyers At Work :) with marching tables, chairs and tiles. 


Autumn Bistro has an amazing Patriotic Restaurant ! 
I love the corner with the Memorial Urn and American Flag:) 
The Red White and Blue potted plants add a nice feel and the Patriotic ribbons on the walls are amazing ! 
Her restaurant is definitely the most patriotic I've seen. 
Amazing Autumn Bistro !

In Bakery Story, cleo's also has bought items from the weekly update and displays them amazingly!
She has a Magic center using the Magic Act, the magician tables and chairs as well as a Golden Goose and Hunny Bunny, can you find them?
Also, a bowling corner from last weeks update! The Strike Zone Cake is centered  betweened the Bowling Trophies and Strike Zone Cookies
In the other corner there is a mini American flag accompanied by Lady Liberty, Washington, and Lincoln next to the USA Sofa. 
As you can see she has so many other sections like the Gnome Home, Sand Castles with Beach Rentals, a Luau, Boardwalk, a campground, a Table Tournament and Arabian Nights. 


Next we have 💚Pupcakes💚 
You can clearly see the American Flag and the 4 :D 
Lady Liberty stands next to the USA Dalmation 
And in the bottom corner she has the Crystal Piano, a nice blue touch
Nice job 💚Pupcakes💚


Another patriotic bakery is from The Sweet Spot! 
The Americana Chairs are perfect to represent the American flag :) along with the red Poinsettias 
With two Lady Liberties manning the cashiers ! I also love the Airplane Statues to honor those in the Air Force. 
Her wall decorations and wallpaper are superb! 
Good job The Sweet Spot!!

Another bakery, by Beach Babe Brit,
A wonderful American flag! Accompanied by a smily face and a B for Beach Babe Brit! 
Lovely starry wallpapers with bright red musical wallpaper. 
Her bakery is quite self explanatory :) 
Wonderful job Beach Babe Brit!! I love it!


Last but not least in Fashion Story we have Bebegurls boutique :)
She has a small patriotic corner with the Celebration Table 
And she also displays the Fun on the 4th! 
If you look closely she grouped the outfits Rockin' the Fourth and 4th of July Fair 
Not only that but there are little sections with small themes like Country, Book Club, Spring, and Poolside

Dragon Story Soccer Quests 6/23

Hi my dragon breeders !

If you didn't know already, there are new quests to get soccer themed items and dragons in honor of the FIFA World Cup!

Here are ways to gather Soccer Balls 

1. A different way from all other quests is by getting a Silver Trophy or Gold Trophy. 
(DO NOT BUY A SILVER TROPHY before you start. A Silver Trophy is the first prize of the quests !!)
A Silver Trophy gives 4 Soccer Balls every 4 hours, while a Gold Trophy gives 16 Soccer Balls every 4 hours. Downside, they cost 150 Gold and 450 Gold... Not really worth it especially after time runs out. 

2. Planting:
What you plant is how much you get. Meaning that if you plant Scalypears which take 20 hours to grow, you will get 20 Soccer Balls. 
I recommend planting Scalypears because if you planted Fireapples every hour, you will only get one soccer ball per hour per farm. What if you can play Dragon Story every hour ? Then you can't keep growing. But with the Scalypears, you can wait almost a full day and you will collect 20 Soccer Balls per farm. The same as if you checked your device every hour. 

3. Quest Outpost:
The first quest at the outpost called 
GOOOOOOOOOAL ! 
(I think I got all the O's....)
Can get 4 Soccer Balls per 4 hours, like the Silver Trophy. 
I highly recommend using your Air Dragons for an extra 4 Soccer Balls, even though it's a small amount, it will add up! Especially when you collect from the Silver Trophy
Just think:
24 hours in a day, and you have 6 potential times to collect from the Outpost and Trophy, so 24X2= 48 per day, not to mention how many farms you have! 

4. Battles
Since they are available every hour, there is only 1 Soccer Ball per win. 


Now with the 2 Day battle to win a Cleopatra Dragon, you can get
2 Soccer Balls!


5. Hatching Dragons ! 
Again, same concept. If you hatch a rare 
12 hour dragon, you will get 12 Soccer Balls. If you hatch a common 4 hour dragon, you will get 4 Soccer Balls. 




1. Silver Trophy 
You only 25 Soccer Balls. 
They're basically giving this one away for free! (Just plant some Scalypears. No biggie. Or hatch a dragon!)



2. Soccer Field - this is a habitat for Soccer types only!! 

Okay, this is quite a stretch. 
You'll need 450 Soccer Balls. 



3. Germany Dragon 
You'll need 900 Soccer Balls



4. USA Dragon
Unlocks at 1,700 Soccer Balls



5. England Dragon
Unlocks at 2,600 Soccer Balls



Community Prizes
Unlocks at 600 Soccer Balls
A) Soccer Net
At 54,000,000 Soccer Balls



B) Soccer Dragon
Unlocks at 144,000,000 Soccer Balls



C) Brazil Dragon
Unlocks at 252,000,000



Yay! We did it!! Enjoy your Soccer Type dragons!!

Best Decorated for Summer time !! 6/24


Hey guys!! :D 
It's summer ! Most of us are probably out of school now and have lots of time on our hands and have revamped up our bakeries and restaurants for summer ! 

First up from Bakery Story we've got an anonymous bakery with a luau theme!

With beautiful Hula Tables and chairs and my personal favorite, Tiki Sconces wall decorations. 
The Arabian Nights Tiles have a nice color that compliment the Sunset wallpaper. 


Another lovely bakery we have is owned by Pepper
What I love most is her Book Club Meeting in one corner with the fireplace and book tables and chairs. 
That is true dedication to Bakery Story because the Book Club Meeting is 45 Gems. 
In the other corners she has decorations from the Fairy Tale Goal and the Fairytale Wedding Cake from the Fairy Tale Mastery Box.
The other corner has the prize from the Garden Glow goals and our current Arabian Night goals. 
The bottom left corner one of my favorite has the Luau ! Along with a Kettle Corn Stand and Boardwlk Dining. 
Nice work Pepper!! 

💚Pupcakes💚 a regular decorater who always gets in the spirit of goals and seasons had a great idea to combine decorations from the Music Goals to go with the Arabian Nights goals. A terrific combination! 
 The band and Crystal Piano blends well with the Belly Dancers :)



From Restaurant Story we have New Mui Chai's restaurant on the beach :)
I love the way the Ocean Floor tiles make a beautiful ocean center, aligned with the Sandy Beach tiles. 
The Sea Turtle Tables are used so creatively as well! 
Look at those turtles swim!
To greet the guests, we have a Mexican Dancer and the chef himself :)
The Ocean View windows add a nice touch to make this restaurant look larger and more oceanic. 
Lastly, the Pier Fishing and Action Dining decorations complete this day at the beach theme. 

There are so many creative things about this restaurant ! I love it! 


Another amazing restaurant is owned by QT Kitchen, another level 99 player! 
Her restaurant looks ready for summer! With a romantic theme with the outdoors. 
The lovely Cherry Blossom grove and Heart Piano give the greatest effect for a lovers paradise. 
If a couple wants a private meal, there is a seat for two in the Upper right corner with mardi gras tables that give an elegant look :)
Awesome QT Kitchen!

Last but definitely not least we have Monique's restaurant !
Monique's is so very unique, first of all the lovely bridge that takes her customers across from the entrance to the sea side. Such a creative way to use those dividers ! 
The Zen Garden and Mermaid Reef compliment the waterside.  The Soothing Waterfalls, Lilly Pad Tables and Sea Turtle Tables surround the mermaid perfectly!!
 I love the Intertube welcomer ! She is perfect for the welcoming job!
In the upper right corner, the Art Gallery, one of my favorite items is displayed so elegantly along with the Mona Lisa painting and a Modern Art Sculpter.  Monique chose Chevron Chairs which give that abstract artistic feeling that really sets the mood for the Art Gallery. 
What I love the most is how the Pier Fishing and Action Dining blend in the ocean. 

Excellent decorating Monique's ! :D

Also the Garden Glow has it's own corner :)
Congrats on finishing the goals Sweet Treats!
