    Is it ok to have the Kitchen and dining area together?

    Cause mine looks more like a loft atm and with the limited space and additional floor I have stairs taking some space.

    Quoted from mine on the pervious page. Thanks!

    ~Twilanite

    Great question! I never thought to ask... :oops:

    Apologies for not getting back to you sooner on this Twi, yes, the kitchen and dining area can be together.

    Really missed doing these challenges as my laptop had died and had to be fixed. Luckily I've got it back, reinstalled my expansions and am ready to go! Perfect small build to get me back into the swing of things :D

    Good to be back (:

    This challenge sucks! (No it doesn't, I secretly love it)
    I finally have a build that I'm actually proud of. But it's over budget by 4k!
    So I'll have to keep tweaking it until I get the look I want, within budget.

    I'm loving all the entries that are dripping in! Makes me want to try even harder!

    Man, I'm glad it's not just me! I've built and rebuilt six or seven times (I've lost count at this point!) and I've only really loved one of the builds. Of course, that one didn't have enough money to properly furnish it once all the walls were up. :/ I do love this challenge though. I'm really having to think about it. :)

    Same goes for me! Glad I'm not the only one. My build costs 18k alone :( not much left for furniture. It truly is a 'thinker' :p

    I was having the same problem as all of you. When there is so little space and something doesn't work in the budget, it was hard to figure out how to put something else in that could work.

    I'm such a happy camper right now. Finally got my build within budget. Really had to cut down on some furniture, which was a shame, but it still works! I'm happy with the result. Now I have to arrange and sort the screenshots and get my entry upthink it will be up later today. I'm play testing it now, with some moo fusions
