Merridan Farmhouse

I built this house to use some of the new Seasons items. I really struggled to choose a style to use them on as everything I tried just looks off. I found a modern farmhouse and just had to build it as it picked up on the back and white in one of the window styles. Overall i am really happy with this house and how it turned out.
This home is designed to be multi-generational: the left wing is design to be self-accommodating for the elderly family members. It still offers independence but it also connected to the main part of the house. This makes the home a lot bigger then it looks but can be reconfigured for people's personal needs.

Seasons CAS Update - Masterpost

This is going to be the easiest way for me to keep you all informed on what is happening with my CAS items as its a bit more complicated then just adding a few tags.

Prior to the release of the Expansion, I was in the process of remaking older content that was outdated due to either patches affecting them (like plantsims), needed some tweaking due to either ugly textures, or the editing of tags and thumbnails. I wish to continue with remaking my clothing, the goal is to update the newer items first with the Seasons tags, then get the rest of the remade items out as updates making the older versions obsolete rather then updating them.

Below you will find a list of updated clothing, clothing updated and edited, clothing that has been remade, and items that still need to be looked at. I will periodically repost this at the top of my blog as items are updated.

Trenton Seating - Modern Sofa Set

I am at it again. I really do have a sofa addiction: I love the amazing variations in designs and just how much you can make seating look different from one another. It truly is wondrous. I doubt I will ever run out of source material for sofas, so this is definitely not the last set you will see (I have about 3 more in my WIP folder XD ). Anyway, this is a little different to what I usually do, and I think it is just a wonderful modern sofa for lofts or modern family living. It looks incredibly welcoming. The kind of welcoming you just want to curl up with a good book, or a blanket on a stormy day.

Luxurious Bedding Update

It was brought to my attention their was an issue with the Low Lod animations for my bedding. Most people probably would not have noticed, but if you use CC on lower graphics settings, this would definitely affect you.

I have fixed the issue, along with cleaning up the meshes and making clearer thumbnails for Mid-Century Abode versions in the new format I use for my other releases of the bedding.

You can grab the updated versions below:

Square Cut Tank - Version 2.0 for guys

Another remake. I had originally made this style in TS3 then again when TS4 came out. I prefer this style to the more traditional shape and it is great as a workout top. Since the original was so old, it was time for a remake, so like usual this doesn't replace the original but it will no longer be available either. So you can have both in-game if you prefer.

Laze About - Sweatshorts for Guys

This was a new idea I had after redoing my standard sweatpants. I wear these around the house all thew time and they are just so comfy. So why not make them for my sims? So I did just that. They come in my standard sweatpants colours and are just perfect for loungewear.

Slouchie Sweatpants V2.0

Another day, another remake. There is nothing quite as good as sweatpants, or as the aussies say; trackie pants. They were one of my favourite TS3 creations, one of the first things i adapted to TS4, and now in its third iteration on a different mesh and cleaned up textures. I am going to get even more use out of these now.

Ghoulish & Ghastly - Vampire Pack Buildmode Addons

I finally picked up the Vampire Game Pack when it went on sale a few months ago because I wasn't sold on having Vlad roam around turning unsuspecting sims into creatures of the night. I did want all the build items that came with it, so now I have mods to curb those enthusiastic vampires and new build content. I do love the content, but the lack of sizes available let a lot to be desired. They were all new designs though, so I went ahead and made some additional sizes and styles to give a bit more choice and variety. The way the items were mapped did make it a bit of a struggle to do so, but I got there and now have some fine addons to work with.

Details and download under the cut

Drapery Delights - Curtain Set

Curtains are one type of object i find lacking when it comes to TS4. I generally rely on CC or recolours to meet my needs, but when that failed I decided to make my own. This is the end result and I tend to use these everywhere now.

Due to the length of these posts and for ease of updating, you can find the download and info under the cut.

Welcome to Brindleton Bay - Community and Residential Lot Dump

I have finally finished the C+D Buildmode addon I have been working on, which means I am now free to share these lots since all content is available for download. I really enjoyed building in this world. The architecture that suits the scenery is one of my favourite styles to build and decorate with the Cape Cod and Hamptons feel. its airy by welcoming at the same time.
There are 16 lots in total, 5 of which are fully furnished Community lots (with minimal testing, sorry), and 11 residential Unfurnished lots. I do plan to eventually do furnished lots, I am just really slow LOL. Anyway, hope you enjoy.
As a side note, the vet is only small at the moment as i left it that way so it could be expanded by the owners. It currently has 2 examination rooms and 1 surgery room but with 2 ground floor rooms vacant and the entire second floor open for expansion, it will grow with whoever plays it. It works perfectly fine as it was the lot I am playing my vet in. The park is also just a heavily landscaped Maxis park, but i included it for completion sake.
