    Welcome to Sakura Spa (Cherry Blossom Spa)!
    I started this build in March of this year and wanted to do a traditional Asian country home with pink and white details. After coming off a couple of enormous builds this was going to be small and simple but still considered larger plans.

    Then my brother passed away in March and then my father in May. I don't have it in me this time to make this build epic. If you're looking for a relaxing place to hang up your boots, get a massage, relax in the hot tub and chill you will find it here. Pink is my favorite color so I did everything I could to utilize a lot of the pink items in the game in the spa. The village is empty beyond the spa/house so don't bother running around looking for more. As always in my homes I like to design them so you go into the front door first and then meander the grounds.

    The bottom part of the house is a spa and the top part is a studio apartment. In the apartment is a shrine with personal notes to my brother and father. You are free to read them but they're as sad as I am.

    I hope you will enjoy it even if it's not a typical build of mine.

    What an awesome home, just wonderful. A place to remain.

    @ Cheribomb: I feel so sorry for your loss and I hope and pray that there are people around you giving you the strength and the hope to carry on.

    I was thinking about you the other day and pondering what you are up to - I'm so sorry to hear of your loss and the cruel hand fate has dealt you lately /hug - I'm also thrilled to see this wonderful home has been published (and it looks totally epic to me by the way!) Soon as I get home from work I will be over to feast my eyes on this gorgeous creation xx

    Awww, so sweet you were thinking of me recently and thank you for the kind words. I've been tuning into your videos :). It's one of my favorite things to do in the morning is watch what fabulous creations Feb has been touring. Can't wait to see your tour!

    Have you ever done a huge build and you come up with one tiny idea that makes your heart sing? This was mine in this build. These little Japanese wooden shoes made of a redwood bookend and two kromzek steins each. I just love them!

    Cool video, as always! :)

    And my condolences for your loss, Cheri; I know the feeling, believe me. :( Despite how cool the video is, I guess I'll just have to visit in person, too. :)

    I loved your tour Feb! I thought you might like the color combo's as you have a great eye for it yourself. Thank you so much!

    I need a place to relax and have some fun and take a vacation, I've found a couple now. So maybe I'll just have to take 2 or 3 vacations LOL

    Your place is lovely Cheribomb, just gorgeous! And Im sorry you lost your father and brother, so sad that it was so close together. I know the feeling the pain hurts but the love is always there. <3 I came to tears reading your notes to them, just reminds me how much I miss my mom.

    Thank you Elflover. I'm sorry about your mom. They're always with us even if not physically. Hugs.
