Oh! ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ Haven is much better than the old house, so much brighter! I love the doghouse and the kitchen with the half wall is a great idea, lets the room have an open feeling. You make good use of those odd nooks and crannies that happen.
Ohhh, makeovers! Certainly the outside is more elegant in your version than the original. I can't compare the inside - I've never looked inside that house - but your inside is very cozy and elegant.
Erin (kellycot) had a thread about that some time ago; she wanted to make over the commercial lots of all the older EA worlds. I'm not sure if HS was one of them or not. (I only found the thread recently, and haven't read all the way through it yet.) I bet you'd have been good at those makeovers!
The dog house under the stairs - is it routable? I'm always afraid to put usable items under stairs (I'll put deco and not directly usable items there, like a stereo), because of routing tantrums. Were the pets able to use it to sleep in?
Beautiful couple! I redone ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ Hideaway myself. lol it was suppose to be a temporary home, but with a little stretching and tweaking it was just too perfect to move out of.

Yep, the dog/cat house is routeable . I got the idea last year when I saw that someone had put it like that under a staircase. Great space saver and it works perfectly fine for both cats and dogs.
@DolphineQ Grayson House is going to make a great bachelor pad for me. It feels like a guy could just come in flop down on the beanbag chair! I like to play male sims because of all the sport things they can do so this will make a perfect spot for one of them. Oh and once again you choose one of my favorite items, the Fixer Upper car! I love that car. Thanks again

Haha, Oh that is awesome!
I wasn't sure about this, but the idea just wouldn't release it's grasp on my mind, so I had to go with it. Even though your letter said that you aren't too fond of dark colors, i think the dark parts really suits the build and the lighter parts makes up for it so it doesn't get gloomy-like. I do think it'll make a great bachelor pad, since it has plenty of seating for dinner guests and room for someone *giggles* to sleep over when it gets to that point.
As for the fixer-upper, it is one of my favorite items too. I love watching my Sims work on it and proudly drive it around once they have it restored. It is a GREAT item, I wish we had more like that for Sims 3!
I'm so happy you like it. And now I'm gonna scadoodle on with the missing details for another one of your daily gifts . Enjoy!
Grayson House is perfect for a male sim or a couple who prefer a more masculine decor! GREAT layout. I'm really liking all the concrete & brick... but I have to admit, my favorite room is the bathroom, that green against the white & grey.
Love your presentation and your sims. I am thinking of waiting for the partially skilled sims later. I do like to work on those, but a few skills are always nice too. Great job!
Love your makeover of ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ Hideway - you did so well! Also your starter Grayson House is beautiful! The Graysons are a great pair - love that they are twins! I'm sure Kgaff will enjoy all these gorge gifts! REC'D
Allison & Lorenzo: Great looking couple! And so many download options! (Which is great, since sometimes I only want the guy, or just the girl, and sometimes I want the whole household!)
Sunflower Shack: What a cute starter house! The cute little fenced in yard/garden is great, gives it just the right rustic touch. And it's adorably quaint inside as well! (It's been sooo long since I've played this one, I honestly can't remember what the original looks like, lol...I should probably go fix that!)
๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ Haven: A much needed improvement! The new colors are so much better!
Grayson House: Another starter! Like the modern more masculine style, it's a refreshing change from the cute little cottage starters that tend to have lots of florals. And the Graysons will make a nice addition to my neighborhoods!

The only kind of garden I can grow is a virtual one.
Dragons - must haz dragons!
Your remake is amazing! Wow, I love all those colors
Rec'd!

I want them all but that would confuse the heck out me. I am loving all the clothing and hair styles you used.
Now I will sit and wait patiently for what ever else you have up your sleeve!!!
