FEEDBACK from Cathy and her team/b]
Its midnight Cinderella
By mommatauraus2
The gazebos at the back are the cutest! Love the idea of the outside eating area as well. The theme is done very well but, would have liked to see a bit more paintings and things on the walls they felt a bit bare. And, I did get a bit of the giggles when I realized the laundry was from her evil step sister’s here! Everything was playable. Great job!
More Comments The creative use of flower boxes on the windows is beautiful. I love the idea of a pond. I think it is cool how you gave Cinderella a dressing room; I am not sure if she would like to have to go outside to get to the luxury bathroom though. The candles and laundry were a nice touch. I like the dining table out back. The bedroom felt a little sparse/un-lived in; it would have been nice to have seen a few more decor/debug items there. Great hot tub hangout! Looks so relaxing. The decorating style almost feels mermaid-like.
Blue little cottage
by leotrixy
This renovation had a play issue where the stove couldn’t be used. The stone flooring seemed a bit odd around the fountain. Terrain paint might have been better and saved you money. The cottage interior however was very cute and the gazebo to the back was so pretty! Well done!
More Comments: Your advertising pictures are beautiful. I enjoyed seeing Cinderella in one. I love the pond, pool and gazebo. The circle window is a nice touch. Inside is lovely and well done. I think Cinderella would be happy here. With the extra room in your budget, I would have liked to have seen some landscaping in the front right part of the front yard…it feels empty.
Fairy tale Cottage
By vethesims
I couldn’t find much fault with this renovation was lovely inside and out! The floor plan was well thought out and it was beautifully decorated and landscaped. Very well done!
More Comments: I can totally visualize Cinderella living here! I really enjoyed seeing Cinderella, in your advertising pictures. You did a great job of landscaping the entire yard. The hot tub gazebo, gardening area, relaxing fountain and art easel were nice touches. The extra columns and fountains were great architectural additions. Your layout of both the yard and the cottage was excellent. You made a great use of space and paid attention to detail. The custom photos of Cinderella, columns, canopy bed, closet and vanity were all nice interior touches. I loved how light, airy and cheery the cottage felt. Great job!
Fairy tale refuge
by thegizky
The flower boxes look cute flowing over the house but in a few places seem a bit off. The thought that was put into this build did not go unnoticed! It was so charming having the story book characters referenced and with an actual book to go with each one was simply adorable! The Hansel and Gretel cook book made me laugh! This renovation has a really lovely cottage feel and is nicely done! Great Job!
More Comments: I love the exterior of the cottage. It looks so real and like it has been there a long time. The vine, clock and carriage are nice Cinderella touches. I was unsure what fairytale creatures the mannequins were supposed to represent, cool idea though. I love the pond! The house has a nice cottage country feel. The book on the wall and laundry vanity are nice Cinderella touches. Great job with making the house feel old and lived in. I would recommend using some additional lighting though, it was a bit dark. It bothered me how some of the windows had white trim and others had brown trim. It did not seem intentional.
Sunrise house
By Liziann
This is a lovely renovation and everything was playable. It was a bit off having all the different wall coverings and on the ground floor and didn’t seem in keeping with the rest of the build. The top floor was lovely and quite charming. The landscaping was beautifully done as well. Well done!
More Comments: I enjoyed seeing Cinderella in your advertising picture. The hot tub gazebo is pretty awesome. I liked the fountains, kitchen computer nook and unique layout. The bear on the bed was cute. I noticed that one side of one of your half walls in bathroom was unfinished; you may want to double-check little details like that in the future. And your flowerboxes go through the walls into the bedroom. I was a little confused by your creative pink color choice…it feels like a wonderful house for Sleeping Beauty. Overall, nice job.
Cinderella’s Cottage
by ShesVeryNice
The overall theme of this renovation has been nicely done! A few plants were coming through the walls of the house. And the mail box and trash can seemed to be randomly placed. It’s nice how the blue color flows nicely throughout the whole of the cottage. Everything was playable and the landscaping was very cute! Great job!
More Comments: I like how you included Cinderella in one of your advertising pictures and how you combined the cottage and royal décor styles. The color scheme is great…creative use of blue in the space. Loved the living room! The overall layout was great and cohesive. However, I was not a fan how the bathroom was split into three different locations. Your decorating skills are good, you may want to pay more attention to architectural detail…some of the windows are trimmed in blue and others are trimmed in white. Also the back roof trim on the side does not match the other side. The front yard seemed a little bare.
Cathy: Congratulations every single participant and thank you for the wonderful Cinderella houses that you have created 4 the Community .You spoiled us with so much versatility and creative looks.

@Zita1966z and @Issabella14 Thank you for creating this building challenge. This is such a fun and different idea! I can't wait to see what you have in store for future challenges. Both of the videos are great too! I liked watching them, such a different idea, I don't think I've seen that incorporated into contests on these forums before.
Thank you everyone for the congratulations and comments on my design :)
