    You are all awesome. Came here because I couldn't remember how to do corner tiles and couldn't find it with search. Found it right here in your thread and picked up some great decorating tips along the way! Thanks :D

    Your walk in closet looks great @nualla8673 :) It looks great how you have used the windows there. It is a great idea to put the fluorescent light bulbs under to the kitchen cabinets to create a nice light effect.

    @nualla8673 I love your ideas for the closet and the lighting under the cabinets. I really love my coffee and your coffee counter area is perfect. :)

    @Mstybl95 I used your idea of counters for a computer desk in this kids' room I was finishing up. Love it! It will be my new favorite decorating thing :p

    I hope it's ok to post this here, I just came across it in ehaught's thread and thought it was a genius way of making a fake garage:

    Wow, thanks for all the new tips! I am taking notes. I love the closets and seeing how everyone else takes the ideas and makes them their own.

    I wish counters can round inward instead of outward all the time lol, also someone mentioned refrigerators not connected to counters and vice versa and I agree that needs to be fixed because it appears unfinished lol

    I think there is a rounded inwards option. Um, I believe the rounded out is at the bottom and rounded in is at the top.

    I feel the same way when I see all these decorating tips!

    Here is one of my kitchens that I did. I am having a lot of fun playing with the counters. It was always awkward in TS3 when a kitchen had a lot of corners, not so much now.

    @Mstybl95 I noticed you had a lot more clutter on your corner computer countertop than I am able to get. What is your secret?

    Your use of the counter for the computer desk in your kids room looks great @nualla8673 :)
    The design and furnishing of your kitchen is very nice! @ObsidianMyst78 :) It looks very nice how you have placed the counters and cabinets!

    @nualla8673 - Picking the right slot and size for things. Honestly, I've been trying to get the books to lean against the wall and I have not been able to reproduce it on any other counter except that one. It's strange. Most of the time it is sideways when I try to place it. The box of tissue will literally place anywhere and so will the pens. So I always leave those for the clutter. --Oh, and then sims will usually place stuff on the counter. My sims always put the tablet on this counter, too.

    This is a neat thread! Great idea for the cabinets never thought about that. :)

    I was curious about how to use cabinets in kitchen with windows. Nicely used.
