Your skill with CFE is definitely second to none @soocoolsim !!! I still haven't got a clue how you manage to build the windmill blades! 🤔
Potter's Windmill sits perfectly on Tom Sawyer Island and there is soo much to do for our sims. Love the wooden walkway and the outdoor sheltered reading nook
@soocoolsim, Fantastic lot Paula! I'm with @Hidehi ....I just downloaded the lot and I am amazed at how your windmill blades came out. You must really have to plan your lots out well to be able to do the CFE work. Just curious - do you usually do your CFE stuff in the early stages? Anytime I've needed to do CFE, I always find that I don't have enough room to work with, lol.
I love the little reading area and all the different leveled deck walkways. At first I thought I placed the lot in the wrong spot because your trees looked different than mine, then realized you must have been in a different season, duh, haha! Got ya rec'd too.
Aw, thank you so much @Hidehi and @Sandraelle . I love the challenge that CFE presents. I did take a shortcut with this one since I used my AuS windmill as a base and demolished what I didn’t want. This time making the sails was much easier having gone through the process once before. 😀
Sandy, once I have enough room for wall guides all around the shell, I’m good. I find having full walls makes it easier to work around walls you want to keep intact, and repair things that may get messed up. Yes, I do CFE work before decor. I’m currently in autumn and loving the colours of the landscaping so couldn’t resist using that for my screenshots. Guess I’d better go back to summer for the other builds 😉
I was playing around with video taping how I’m creating a new CFE build but that’s not my forte lol. Maybe one day….

Ok, thanks for explaining, but I'd still be lost at how to do it lol. That would be awesome to see videos of how you create these complicated CFE builds, lol, so hopefully you can figure that out some day.
Hi everyone, including lurkers… I was thinking the Main Street Confectionery I just claimed would be perfect to use the Katy Perry Sweet Treats pack but not sure if that would deter downloaders since it would be a necessity with so many objects being used.
So… I’ve started an anonymous poll and am hoping you could vote please.
Thanks to everyone who voted in my poll. I’ve started decorating my confectionery without KPST and so far doing well.
How is everyone doing? The forums are so dead these days. Hoping still interest in Sims 3 and folks are just taking a break to chill or handle other priorities. Feel free to drop in even to say hi if you wish… lurkers and builders lol. Wishing everyone a great weekend. Be safe! ☃️

Blossom Cottage is lovely with great architectural touches @ks0 ! Well furnished throughout. Love the platform bathroom. The duckie in the living room brought a smile to my face. Nice landscaping including the pond and water wheel. Sims will enjoy the surroundings relaxing in the hot tub. Unusual addition of the petrol pumps as lawn decor. I’ve added your cover pic above to highlight your new build. Links added to page 1 and the spreadsheet. A great home for a family. Well done! 🌟🌸

@ks0, Blossom Cottage is really cute and a great family home and will fit in perfectly in Fantasyland. Love the water wheel addition and the back yard. I haven't download it yet, but curious to see what is in the area with the greenhouse roofing. Nicely done. Off to rec.

So I’ve a question… I’m wrapping up playtesting my confectionery which includes the bakery items. Does anyone know how to stop the nightly clean up of the baked goods? Research indicated if it was designated as a hangout it wouldn’t but so far that didn’t work. Has anyone been successful at this?

@LMC6255 , that's wonderful to hear that you'll be joining in with us, yay!
@soocoolsim, Sorry, I'm no help with the baked goods nightly clean up. Since I use the NRAAS Cupcake mod to fill my bakery shelves, that doesn't happen to me. I hope someone has the answer for you though.
A small Colonial family home for the Liberty Square area, with 2 bedrooms and 1-1/2 baths. Consists of a separate living room with fireplace, a separate dining room that's open to the kitchen, and a multipurpose area on the 2nd floor landing. Backyard is very small due to the lot size but it has a porch with a bbq, a patio table in the yard along with some garden pots. Everything is upgraded, no cc or cap.
@Sandraelle , The Williamsburg is a darling and gracious family home. A perfect fit for the Liberty Square area. Beautifully furnished and decorated as usual. I love what you did with the pattern in the bathroom. Even though relatively small, you laid everything out so well it doesn’t seem cramped. Just enough landscaping and cute touches inside and out. Looking forward to downloading for a walkthrough in game when I’m on the computer later. Rec’d for now. Links added to page 1. Well done! 🌸🌟

The petrol pumps were kind of random but I get so much eye strain looking through the decor section that I just went with them lol.
The Williamsburg is very cute and tastefully furnished throughout.
