Changes

I am attemptingto update the look of my blog, so you may see (or should already see) some changes in the next coming days.

I'm hoping that the lay-out and custom designs will encourage more followers and make visiting more fun.

One change you may already noticed is I added a custom image to the top of the blog.  Those homes and community lots you see are all my Sims 3 creations, they are not pictures of homes or some website dawddle I found.  

I thought I'd share the original with you so you could see the details.  All of these lots are currently available in my Studio, I will gladly provide direct links of where to find these should any of you dear readers want to add these to your game.



Until next time, stay safe, have fun and Happy Simming!

Coming Soon!

So I have 2 sims I hope to upload to the Exchange soon.  They are both made with CC, and one of them has a store item outfit.

The first is Gemma.  I've been trying to upload her for about a week now with no success.

She was made with Showtime in mind, and will be good for any kind of Showtime performer act. I really loved her and I love the outfits I made for her.  But. She. Just. Won't. Upload. !!! Arg.

This next one is Brownie.  You could take a wild guess that her favorite color's brown, thus her name and the shade of her clothing. ;-)
She is shy and a loner so she'd be good as a single sim in a home.  I just finished making her today, but I had the same problems trying to get her to upload as I'm having with getting Gemma to work.


Soooooooo..... I don't know when they'll make it (if ever) to the Exchange.  But if the Exchange doesn't work then I'll upload them in mediafire.

Happy Monday!

New! Gables, A Rainbowcy Home

This home was built on request so if you download this, just be aware I used colors that the requester asked for and you may find it very purple.  But in the same respect I did try to keep it all toned-down so nothing outrageously bright but still in keeping with what the requester wanted.

This home is a traditional styled home, with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms.  There's a paddock for one horse, and a dying vegetable garden in back that needs some TLC.  The layout and style is a little simplistic and nothing too outrageously expensive used in the home as I tried to decorate around the idea that the homes somewhat dilapidated, and the lady of the house has passed away.

This home is CC FREE and STORE FREE.  Only EPs/SPs are needed for this lot to function. So DL'ing should be a cinch!

Happy Simming!

Coming Soon -- Villa Sabina, A Mediterranean Home

I'm working on a new home that I'd like to share with you.

Since I got Showtime for an early Mother's Day present, I've been discovering the build and buy options that I'm excited to use in my new Starlight Shores home.


I may change exterior colors, I'm not sure, but I like the dark wood and the warm tones of the stone and stucco.  Store content will be used in this house, but it will be CC free.  Store sets I have in mind to use is the Fabulous Fiesta and Hacienda Luxury.  I've already used doors and windows from the latter set (as you can see) so it'll be a must to at least have the Hacienda Luxury.

I plan to make a lot of outdoor space, pool and hot tub area.  And maybe even a vegetable garden so this home will be perfect for the green thumb and outdoors-y sims. 

Happy Simming, Ya'll!

NEW! Bocage Plantation

Good Evening!

Before I turn in for the night, I have a new home to share.  This was a home I created upon request.  I made a loose variation of the Bocage Plantation located in Louisiana.

This home has 4 bedroom suites, 3.5 spacious bathrooms.  Features of the home include the Georgian architecture, the classic furnishings and "Old World" feel of the home.  You will find no technology here, because time has stopped.

The lay out of the home is a bit different, as I built the home by looking at pictures and had no true floor plan to go by for lay-out.  So you will have 2 bedrooms per floor with ample public space between.  The ground floor is more private, since the front door/main entrance is actually located on the 2nd floor, AKA the Main Floor.




The lay-out is spacious, with room to grow or add any TV's or computers that you may desire.

This home is CC Free.  Store content was used in the making of this home -- As usual. :P

Store Sets:
Club Vaindenburger
Indulgent Living
Zen Again
Frontier Finds Kitchen
Storybook Bath
Storybook Living

Individual Items from The Store:
Gothique Painting
Secret Sonny
Miss Mystery
Bayou Shutters

On to the pictures! (Be warned, this is pic-heavy)

**Note: Not all the pictures of the bathrooms are available.  I find it redundant.  If you've seen one, you've seen them all. ;-)

Re-Vamp WIP

So I'm redecorating and remodeling a pre-built house in Appaloosa that I love.  The house has great exterior character and I loves the focal point being the stone chimney.  Do you remember this house?

 This is how the house looks originally when you load up your game.  And I love it.  But it was a little too dated in my opinion.

There's nothing wrong with a retro house - and I'd consider this retro with the giant stone chimney and the stone fencing.  But I decided to give this a slight exterior updated, with more defined garden plots and updated windows/doors.

So this is what I have so far:

The exterior is complete, for the most part.  I'm still working on the interior.  The windows of the house, the stone pattern and the flower pots and patio sofa are all CC.  So this home (obviously) will have CC packaged with it.  And because my interior has a share of CC in it as well, this house will likely only make it to mediafire.  For some reason, I find that homes I build that are bigger than about 10MB don't load to my studio.  And I'm not all too sure why that is .....

Anyway, that's my update for today. :D

Happy Simming!
