Story: Christmas should be warm and welcoming just like a cabin in winter with a roaring fire, company of friends and relatives, hot drinks with cake and pies. Well this is Grandma Esthers livingroom and she is ready for Christmas but she has her friends round for chess games every week, so nothing changes and her friends will enjoy the cheerful room after hanging up their coats and having hot drinks.

A Rustic Christmas is a very nice Christmas themed living room! @luckyheather Esther’s friends would enjoy seeing all the very nice festive decorations on the walls, tables and throughout the room when they come and enjoy playing chess in the room! The garlands, banners, wreaths and Chrismas themed wall decor look very nice! Very nice warming festive fireplace area for them to enjoy sitting resting on the sofas having a chat in front of the fire. They will enjoy having a cup of tea from the brewer and cake from the cake display item or cookies from the jar when sitting there or at the festive dining table. The rock texture of the fireplace wall gives a nice look to the area. Sims will enjoy watching the tv there at other times when not playing chess. The lights are a nice touch either sides of the tv.and the red flowers look pretty! The snowmen are cute either sides of the fireplace, The bonbons and party hats are a great festive touch on the coffee table. The large and smaller Christmas trees look festively nice in the room. Very nice red and green colour scheme of the room. The red colour and the type of seating for the Sims to have fun playing chess at the tables looks very nice. It is very kind of Esther to have prettily wrapped Christmas presents for her friends to take home with them. They will enjoy listeming to stereo music whilst playing chess. The red and patterned designed green floor rugs and the colourful glitter on the floor add a special look to the room. Her friends will enjoy looking out at the snowy weather through the windows whilst playing chess. The coat rack and umbrella stand are homely touches near the door.
It is a very nice Christmas themed Living room for playing chess and chatting with friends. Thankyou very much for entering this week’s challenge!

Thank you @lsnishi I just went crazy with all those brilliant decorations we have now

'Cream & Sugar' @MadRadMandee turned out so lovely for Esther and her friends, I love the central fireplace one side and TV the other, I will have to pinch your idea for later Pretty soft tones all around perfect for the elders
