Housing Item Requests: More Argonian Style Furniture and Others

When you look at the selection of furniture available in the other racial styles, Argonian is severly lacking in comparison. There's no desk, tabletop light, individual hanging light, mirror, nightstand...

I could go on for days. Here are a few of my ideas, please add yours!

- A tabletop light that is basically the burning part of the Argonian light stick on a plate or in a small bowl, sort of like the Dwarven candle cup.
- The lanterns from the light strings and lamp posts as individual hanging lights.
- A nightstand that is basically a smaller version of the woven dresser, perhaps with a drawer that looks like one of the woven Argonian baskets with a handle like the tops of the closed Argonian baskets .
- Mirrors whose frames look like the side of the woven bookcases, personally I'd like to see a standing one, a wall one that hangs from a string like the Tamriel map, and perhaps a dresser mirror with a base kind of like the Argonian censors.
- A desk that is like the table with shelves or drawers on either side like the Imperial desk, the shelves could be styled after the woven bookshelves.
- A wardrobe with the same basic shape as the bookshelf with doors that are modeled after either the doors of Argonian houses or the side panels of the bookshelves with a rope handle added.
- A hutch that is basically one of the short bookshelves with some of the wall shelves on top.
- Guar and/or netch hide rugs.
- A corner Argonian bar that mirrors the existing one OR making the bar itself and the corner separate pieces like with pretty much every other race.
- Fences like the ones in Dhalmora.

In terms of the others I'd like to see, here are the main ones:
- SMOOTH PLANKS! For the love of all that is good, give us smooth planks to build with. There are very few building materials as large and as thin as the wide rough planks but they are impossible to place rugs on nicely and it's hard to make clean looking structures out of any of the rough planks. For those of use who love to build lofts, anything thicker takes up too much space and anything smaller takes up too many item slots. Give us something large, thin, smooth, and aesthetically appealing to work with.
- A metal plate and a metal grating the same size as the wide rough planks. See above.
- More purple light sources. We have a wide variety of flame, yellow, and blue lights but very few in purple. Green doesn't fare much better, and pure white would be nice too.
- The glowing bottles in Blackheart Haven dungeon as housing items.
- Too late for this year, maybe an idea for next year, a closed version of the Jester's Pavilion. I love that thing dearly and would adore a version that is only open on one side.
- Small shacks and such similar in size to the Redguard tents. These would be especially nice for the Coldharbor Surreal Estate to save item slots.
- Weapon racks like you see just about everywhere in the world as well as armor stands.
- Decorative archery targets and training dummies, something other than the skeletons that doesn't necessarily have to have the same functionality.
- Purple ashflower trees like we see in Stonefalls.

These are my top requests, here's to hoping I'm not the only one who would love to see these items available to players.

    Second everything under the Argonian furnishing stuff - especially guar/natch hide rugs - many’s the time I wished for something appropriate to place on the dirt floors of these charming mud huts. Even something that is woven reed or jute would be awesome.

    And those purple ashflower trees from Stonefalls would be so awesome.

    I agree, I had forgotten about those! And the nests there as cradles for the Argonian eggs.

    I will be editing this post with new ideas as they occur to me.

    New items to add to the list:
    - Empty versions of the tall and short Argonian cups.
    - Washboards to go with the washtubs.
    - Two new versions of the trough, one filled with water and one filled with feed.
    - An Argonian tapestry similar in size to the smoky Redguard that one can walk through, possibly a hanging version of the woven bedroll or longer versions of the Argonian curtains of smoke or the nest. The woven curtains are great for making walls but there are no Argonian tapestries that work well for creating doorways.
