My Submission for the Elderly Couple for the Spark'd Challenge.
The Dungmires
Grandma and Grandpa have a secret. It's a secret hidden from everyone for years. You see, Grandma and Grandpa play with dung. Yep, they're Dungologists. What started a secret hobby, through the years, became a passion after retirement. They just can't get enough dung. They study it. They collect it. They touch it, smell it, squeeze it and grandpa may or may have not once...tasted it. Mommy's alight. Daddy's alright. Grandma and Grandpa play with dung. What's that smell? It's probably Grandpa.
Oh... guess I’m the odd one out. @luckyheather@Shaymantha I’m a Storyteller (ummm why am I even on this thread then? lol) and I only ever build places that I use in my plot (although there are a few exceptions).
@NiniBeMe69 That’s a mansion! I like how you decorated based on different packs but still managed to have a unifying theme!
@surlybadger i like how you made it so it blends in with the rest of Grims Quarry but in a “better-than-thou” sort of way lol. The lavender and wild grass are my go-to landscape plants. Thanks for showcasing your flowerbed! I’m gonna have to steal that idea lol.
@luckyheather It’s so cozy and traditionally unmodern very different from your previous builds. Nice! I love the color scheme! It’s so relaxing to look at.
@masajo I like how your build is all country looking on the outside but all sleek with a modern color scheme inside. You decorated well to give it that lived-in family home vibe. Good job!
@rosemow thanks for always spreading positivity in the community!
Lol well stories are creations too! I'm not that good at sharing mine tbh not confident enough plus building feeds my creative side as i love to draw and stuff too XD
Muenda Specter is a lovely elder lady with a creatively designed background story @luckyheather
13 Dead End Lane is a very lovely Victorian cottage! Very nice exterior design,tower,roofing,and great porch, and bar balcony areas!Lovely fairy water fountain pool The flowers through the outdoors areas are pretty! Very lovely interior furnishings,and blue and white colors! The wall patterning is very pretty and nice! Very lovely curtains! The furnishing of each room is very pretty! The bedroom is very beautiful! Very nice bed used and the window sofa sitting nook is very nice. The flowers on the drawers are pretty! Very nice curtained windows alcove in the bathroom. It is such a big contrast with the basement room! The basement room is very creatively designed! The black, grey colour scheme, death related items on the tables, walls and shelving, skeleton , skulls, grim reaper gnome reflect the interests of the sim who lives there very well! The archaeology table and expedition items and supplies are great for her to take on her expedition trips and journeys. She will enjoy playing the pipe organ there, The graveyard in the garden complements well with the basement.
Thank you @.rosemow for this week challenge I was inspired by my IRL as a teen at high school and one of the school subject was the Army Cadets For two years. I based this room for a teen Space Cadet studying outer space and wish to become an astronaut one day
oneroomoneweekonetheme room challenge 275
The theme for the week is : “ a study room for a child or teen that reflects one school subject”
I've been working on and off for months on this big build, and then it took me way too long to actually share it here on the forum.
There are a million pictures, sorry!

Thank you @rosemow for such a wonderful review of the Victorian home, I enjoyed reading it I am so happy you thought it reflects the Elder who I created for it Thanks so much.
Teen Space Cadet Study is a very lovely study for a teen space cadet studying outer space! @chips46 The space, rocket and astronaut themed furnishings are very nice! It is great that an astronaut model is in the room! It will encourage Julie in her studies as she plans to become an astronaut herself. The starry skies wall pattern looks very great and effective!Very nice space and rocket themed wall art! The space prints are great! The moon and stars print rug suits the room theme well!
I have posted more about your room in the challenge thread.
Glam Rock Manor is a very beautiful home! @liel88 Very lovely exterior design, roofing, black, white color, and very elegant water fountains! The interior furnishings, marble walls and flooring, colours are all so very, very glamorous, luxurious and beautiful! It is such a very detailed build! Each level and the basement have all been designed and furnished in a very lovely way!
It is a very special glamorous home!
Just finished a Spark'd sim entry. It's one of the most memorable (for me) elders in the Sim series of games. It's Mrs. Crumplebottom. I remember her coming out of nowhere to whack the heck out of my sim with her purse while my sim was on a date or at the public pool. I actually miss her. So here she is in all her crotchety glory, living her best life in her golden years as the head of a campaign "Decency And Morality Now." You can see what the acronym is, but apparently it's a disallowed word!

Desc: This Victorian Cottage has a secret basement room as it belongs to a decendant of Olive Specter and this #Elderly Lady also has a morbid facination with Death, so her home looks bright and cheery but the hobby room below is rather different. Olive had a son with the Grim Reaper called Nervous Subject and their decendant Muenda is a Tomb Raider that travels to distant countries and cleans up her Death related relics in her basement room.

Description: Muenda is a decendant of Olive Specter and Nervous Subject and like Olive she has a facination with Death. Her hobby is collecting and reading about death from different cultures so that takes her into Tombs in far off lands such as Selvadorada many times a year. So she has to stay fit and she enjoys violin and pipe organ music witch she is learning. Her Victorian home has her collection of Death related artifacts.
Notes: Her name was a Family Surname from Africa
