Big pile of cardboard boxes- ripped open, neatly opened, taped up, drawn on, still flat, etc.
Tableware: plates, silverware, napkins, cups- these could be piled in a bunch, so that it looks like someone is throwing a party and/or they could be neatly set up, as if our sims are getting ready to eat.

Throw blankets/afghans that either "attach to" furniture or ones that we can place for ourselves.

Chianti bottle, the one with the basket base. And then, of course, you have to have one with a candle sticking out of it!
Tea cup clutter!

And BOOKS! We need all sorts of books! Individual books of different sizes. Open books. A big open fairytale book with pretty pictures on the pages wold be lovely as well! Some SMALL stacks of books that fit well on end tables! Books, books, books! LOL
Edited to Add: Regarding this, "
Maybe a fridge with magnets and pictures and clips on it with cereal boxes and other food on the top. "
You can totally MOO the small wall shelf onto the top of your fridge and it will actually disappear into the fridge itself. THEN you can put small items up there! I usually put the breadbox there.
It's these little touches of "realism" that make decorating FUN Store Team! Take heed! LOL
How about recolorable tissue boxes, too? And I want the iced tea pitcher and vegetable basket ideas that have been floating around as well.

I could go on and on -- I LOVE clutter!!
Granted that there are CC sites that have this stuff and all but it's stuff that EA should already have for their game and they shouldn't have to depend on 3rd parties to make it for the players to use. And not everyone likes to download and use CC in their game as this is stuff that EA should already have. I remember in TS2 we had a cereal box that I would put on to of the fridge.
Here are some of my pictures using what stuff that is in the game from the different EP's/SP's and stuff that I downloaded from ATS3.
In this picture, I used the paint deco from the UL along with some of the stuff from ATS3 like the blue trunk.
The stuff that is on the shelves for my pantry is stuff from ATS3 along with some of the stuff on the kitchen counters
The make-up box and the tray and bottles are from TS3 while the curling iron and the nail polish and files are from ATS3.
The mug holder, coffee grinder and the stacked boxes are from ATS3.
The sink, ironing board, the shelf and some of the stuff on there is from ATS3.
The 2 desks, the wheel barrel outside of the greenhouse, the watering cans and the rest of the stuff on the desks all are from ATS3 along with the garden shovels leaning up against the walls.
Then I have the place settings that are from ATS3. And as you can see that your Sims just places their plates or bowls over top of them. Then the tree is from the store of course but also has some of the gift boxes from ATS3.

Did you see over at MTS they have decorative china...it is the little things that count.
Edit to say, duh, didn't look at the last picture close enough.
YES, YES, AND MORE YES!!
*ahem* sorry, I just really love pillows.

Same here. I love just about everything over at ATS3. And yes, I'm glad that the Sims just places their plates over top of the place settings. I think stuff like that makes the Sims homes more like homes and that someone is living in them and not like model homes where no one lives in them.
EA needs to take a lesson from ATS3 and do some of these stuff for TS4. I've even use the stuff from the Fine Dining set like the stack of dishes and put them on my counters or shelves.
No I didn't see that over at MTS as I really don't go to that site very much. But I might have to go over there and check it out...
Once I dl'ed the stuff from ATS3, I go in and look for the stuff and add the new items into a collection folder that I named ATS3 so I can go there when I want to use the stuff from ATS3...

And they really do need to stop dumping everything into Misc Decor. Why do they have plants, paintings, and statues in there when those already have their own catagories :roll:.

So many great ideas! Signed and also adding this petition to my petition directory of sorts!
Signed!
I was thinking the same thing. It just looks more realistic with clutter.
I love clutter - but it can mean you need to turn object hiding on or you get lag from your computer trying to render everything on the lot all the time.

Yay! Clutter!
As someone who DOES grind my own coffee each morning I WANT that coffee grinder! A coffee canister (recolorable) would be lovely as well. Coffee, coffee, coffee! LOL
I know someone else already said a wine bottle with 2 partly full wine glasses. To that I would add INDIVIDUAL filled wine glasses AND empty ones! I would also love a china cabinet along the lines of the elixir cabinets from Supernatural that we could place all this small individual clutter in. A modern, country and traditional style cabinet please! With clear glass doors or even no doors at all. Also, a classic Chianti bottle, the one with the basket base. And then, of course, you have to have one with a candle sticking out of it! Yes, I've done this! LOL My own home is filled with bookcases but on each one a shelf remains free of books and is instead used as a display area for MY decorative clutter! LOL So a bookcase with one empty shelf that would accept clutter would be wonderful for me! LOL Some more TINY candles like the little rounded one from base game are really needed as well. They fit so well so many places but we need some different looks! And candles in a jar like Yankee Candles would also be fantastic. Okay, gonna stop now! For...you know... now.
Am I the only one that has issues with MOOing? My sims tend to get all out of whack whenever I use it. I have to reset them constantly because they walk on the wrong floors or... none at all. :shock: It's hard to describe and weird. Luckily, I've never had that glitch where sims stretch to the wrong age. YIKES! That one's the worst... But back on topic: I DO like the idea, BUT the fridge still doesn't have magnets, so...
*Waits* :P
EXACTLY!
When the second most exciting thing you see in a set is a bag of flour or gardening tools, you know there are problems.
amjoie, THANK GOODNESS for copy and paste.
It's a nightmare, isn't it?!
I'm so jealous of all the CC. Was searching around for ideas, when I started writing the list. Love all the fake foods and boxes I saw. The fact that they won't get spoiled and smelly is a BIG plus! It'd be nice if, at the MOST, some of these items I've listed in the main post (definitely not all of them)would get a moodlet attached to it like messy room or something. I doubt that would be able to happen, though.
Why they haven't added pillows for floors is beyond me. :roll:
Lived in look is the goal!!! Again, this is a freaking life simulation game. How could we NOT have clutter?! It's , like, our entire lives, physically and mentally.
THAT! THAT!!!!! EA, WHY DO YOU DO THAT?! Just... ARGH! :evil:
No worries! Adding people if they leave, what seems to be, a positive response.
Thanks!
I guarantee this will be the first and last time you ever say that.
Hmmm...I'm willing to risk it!
It's a never ending list. 8)
Thanks to everyone for your support! I've added your ideas to the main post and I'm sure lots of you will be back again!
