✿ Easing into Spring Gifts for... the lovely CMBAKER16 ✿

✿ Hello there, my dearest buddy! ✿

Surprise, I'm your buddy! I had a lot of fun working on my gifts for you, and I hope you'll enjoy them as much as I enjoyed making them for you!

So no worries, I have most definitely not forgotten about you. I really wish I could have gifted you something right on this first day of gifting, but unfortunately, something in real life took up way more time than I'd expected, so I'm still finishing up the last touches on your gifts. I want them to be as good as possible for you, instead of giving you something rushed! Your gifts will be here asap, and in the mean time, here's a different kind of gift:

I also have a little sneak peek of your first gift:

✿ See you soon @cmbaker16! *hugs* ✿

    ✿ Gift 1: Historic House - Made-Over!

    Maybe you recognize this house, maybe not. It's Midnight Hollow's Historic House, which was originally occupied by the Specter family. It's such a lovely house, but it's so dark! So I figured it was time for a little huge make-over. The furniture, walls, garden.. everything's been moved around and given a touch of Spring! Here and there you will find little hints to your next gift, which will be the household that lives here... I hope you like this redo!

    ✿ Gift 2: The Elvin Family

    5_zpsosxtwjgf.png

    The Elvin family consists of Daisy and Connor, their little boy Oscar and the family's beloved cat Faye. At first sight, they seem like the perfect family - all of them seem to kind and dapper fairies, that live in a neat house. But I'm going to tell you a few secrets about them...

    2_zpswdfxlkvz.png

    This is Connor Elvin, young adult. He is very charismatic and dapper, and comes from a long line of elite fairies. But if you look closely, you'll notice that something's off... Right - Connor has no wings. Years ago, he was cursed by an evil witch, who took away his magical powers and turned him into a monster - every full moon, Connor turns into a werewolf. He tries desperately to hide this from the world outside, and his wife is the only one who knows about it. Connor is a writer, and he also loves to read.

    Connor's traits:
    • Bookworm
    • Charismatic
    • Genius
    • Brooding
    • Proper

    1_zpsilbvbefy.png

    This is Daisy Elvin, young adult as well, and lover of everything green! She's a very kind young lady and is known for using her magic to help others. She loves to cook and to work in her vegetable garden, and tries to be as eco-friendly as possible. Since she found out about Connor's curse, she's terrified of anyone else finding out and judging her family for it, which caused her to become even more perfectionistic than she already was. The house, her garden, the food she cooks - everything needs to be perfect.

    Daisy's traits:
    • Perfectionist
    • Loves the Outdoors
    • Green Thumb
    • Eco-Friendly
    • Friendly

    3_zpsloouffsz.png

    This is Oscar Elvin, son of Connor and Daisy. His parents aren't entirely sure if his wings will still come, if he's 'just' human, or if his father's terrible curse has affected him as well... Oscar doesn't worry about it, though. He's a brave little kid that loves to explore new things. He also loves monkeys.

    Oscar's traits:
    • Brave
    • Clumsy

    4_zpsdwlsu97r.png

    And last, but definitely not least - the family's cat! Her name is Faye, and she has a gorgeous long white coat, with some hints of gray. She has a tiny little black spot at the back of her right ear, though, which caused her to always feel like the odd one out - the cats of all the other fairies never had odd spots like hers. She's a little shy, but adores her family, and she's a very bright cat.

    Faye's traits:
    • Genius
    • Neat
    • Shy

    ✿ Gift 3: Abbot's Antiques

    1_zpsewcvbo1n.png

    Abbot's Antiques has been around for centuries, but no one knows exactly how old the store is. It is currently owned by two twin sisters, better known as the Witches of Abbot. Most people seem to think of Abbot's Antiques as just an ordinary consignment store, but rumour has it there's something hidden in the basement...

    ✿ Gift 4: The Abbot Sisters

    PicMonkey%20Collage_zpsqiojbthu.png

    These are the Abbot sisters, Martha and Mary, the owners of Abbot's Antiques. They might look identical, but their personalities couldn't be more different. Martha is your typical evil witch, that's into potions, curses and everything dark, while Mary uses her magic to help others, and is hopelessly waiting for the man of her dreams to come by the store one day. Martha is the one who cursed Connor Elvin, but not even her sister knows about this.

    2_zpsbhavxv72.png

    Mary's Traits:
    • Animal Lover
    • Hopeless Romantic
    • Good
    • Over-Emotional
    • Born Salesman

    1_zpsmqkm22qi.png

    Martha's Traits
    • Brooding
    • Diva
    • Night Owl
    • Evil
    • Born Salesman

  • cmbaker16cmbaker16 Posts: 9,172 Member
    @MariTomKaulitZ it's so lovely thank you, I tried to get on the exchange to download it but sims 3 is giving me an oops page *stomps and pouts* so i'll have to wait till it lets me on to do so *stomps more and throws a tantrum*

    Hope you have a good sleep and get lots of rest :D
  • tanubanuetanubanue Posts: 4,116 Member
    @MariTomKaulitZ It also gave me an oops page. Were you able to upload it ok? It's a wonderful make over :)
  • Bookworm742Bookworm742 Posts: 4,068 Member
    Love it! Love the Victorian style in MH, but they do tend to be too dark to fit in anywhere else...so this one is great, it will go almost anywhere! (I am also getting the oops page, however :( )
