Welcome to my showcase thread and thank you for visiting!
A little bit about me: I'm not really a game player but I do LOVE to build and have been creating since Sims 2 came out. I didn't actually join the forums until 2012 and most of my earlier builds were from contests that were held back in the day. I've learned a lot over the years and I do think I've improved quite a bit since those early days. I'm a stickler for details, aim for realistic builds and am CC free. Update -- November 2021: After being a member of the Sims 3 DNA Request team for the past 6 years, we have decided it was time for us to close the thread. I will however, continue to create for myself and do collaborations with others and will continue to post my creations on this thread.

Unfortunately, my studio became full and had exceeded the quota limit, so had to start deleting some of my studio items - this is one of them.
This home is from the first contest I entered and the challenge was to build a one-story home (can’t remember what the other criteria was). It’s a 3 BR/2BA log home accented in stone, with a 2 car garage, guest house and a large backyard for entertaining.

This build was created for Calmorezoo’s community lot competition. In addition to a complete hair salon (main floor), the day spa also offers multiple revitalizing services: massages, body wraps, facials, aromatherapy (2nd floor) and a hydrotherapy pool and hot tub, steam rooms, a yoga room and a juice bar (basement floor). The Oasis was decorated with luxury in mind with rich marbles and luxurious furnishings.

It features 3 BDR, 3 full baths, a home office, a bonus room above the garage, 2 half baths (powder room on main level and half bath in bonus room), an outdoor kitchen, pool, hot tub, and a fenced off children’s play area.

This tiny modern bachelor pad was entered in Stikystuff’s “10x10 Lot” contest. The challenge was to build on a 10x10 lot with either a modern, beach, punk rock or gothic/medieval style. I chose the modern theme and decorated it in shades of grey. (Can you tell what books I’m currently reading?? Haha!) The 1st floor has an open living/dining/kitchen area and the 2nd floor has the one bedroom with walk-in closet and bathroom, and access to an outdoor patio. The laundry area is in the basement, along with a treadmill, computer desk, a bar, video games and lots of seating for you and your friends to watch movies.

Thanks so much Bry, I appreciate that. I only recently ventured into the Creative Corner forum and saw that people had their own threads of their builds, so thought why not. Unfortunately I am not currently working on anything, but I am itching to get back to it. I've had other priority stuff going on in RL, but I am having building withdrawals, lol!!! But when I do, I'll be sure to post a sneak preview. Have a good one!

Aww, thanks so much walkingstick. I had a lot of fun creating the mexican beach house customizing all the tilework. And I figured if I was going to make one of these threads that I better do it now before the task became too daunting. I noticed that wibblelikejelly just created a thread listing everyone's showcases, so maybe I'll fill out the form for that soon. And thanks for the rec's, I really appreciate it. Have a great day!

This Victorian was built for a building contest, and the challenge was to build on a 10x10 lot in any building style, but we could not use any store content and could only use a limited # of EP's/SP's. It was tough, let me tell you, as I tend to build better when I have no limitations. Anyways, this home only has 1 bedroom and 1 bath, but is quite functional and has a reading area, a computer nook, a balcony off the bedroom and a bbq and sitting area in the back. This house is most suitable for a single female sim, as it's decorated in various shades of purples and lavenders and is quite a bit on the feminine side. Don't know if this transfers, but all of the appliances and plumbing have been upgraded.

Rose, you are so sweet to say and I'm glad you like the purple shades. I thought maybe I overdid it a little with the colors, but once I was committed to making everything those colors, I had to stick with it. I really appreciate your nice comments, thank you.
