Finally got the latest creations installed. Like others said, the crescent shaped pumpkin patch is pretty cool. A great home for a family @chojrak and I love how nicely the exterior fits into the surroundings. Updated link added to page 1. Well done! 😀

Love the architecture of Chesapeake Shores, esp the side and rear views @ciane ! Such a great layout for the main rooms with the wall of windows along the back and access to the large wraparound rear porch. Loving the decor and landscaping details. Another great home for a family! Link added to page 1. Well done!

Jack and Emma are a darling couple @texansky . Already in my world so I expect they’ll become friends with the other residents pretty soon. Wishing them the putter patter of many little feet in future. Link added to page 1 under the Sims section. Well done!

Media room. music room. laundry. plumbing upgraded. pets upgrades. sleeps 5 kids plus nursery. Master has un-suite. pool and kid friendly. 3 car spots. lots of greenspace and some perfect plants. 154k
I need to work on figuring out better cover shots. this was done in Day I swear lol. Custard attached.
I started one build, trashed it and this is the 2nd build. I like this one a lot. I think Pawtucket is still my favorite for this world so far.
The Ipswich is a lovely family home @fatness1974 . Love the eggplant wall colour and angled furniture in the dining room. Very nice you’ve included pet items too. Link added to page 1. Well done! 😀

@texansky - Great user name, by the way! I got the family installed in their home and they are already out and about having fun. Great looking sims with great traits!
@fatness1974 - I actually like this house more than the other. I love the textures and colors, the gable windows, and landscaping. I like that you put the pet hygiene machine inside the garage! It's got a unique layout that looks very playable.
@chojrak - I didn't know that basement stairs needed a landing. I thought that they just needed to be facing N-S on the lot. Now, I'll have to play around with them again!
I think I'm all caught up with all the new additions in my game.
Yay! I was hoping there would be another chapter @IdahoGal65! It's always fun to see the homes in use. I like that you always try to get inside the Sims heads for their motivations! Great pics. So much going on in your world!
@texansky, Jack and Emma Colby are a great newlywed couple for Sea Horse Estates. Hope they enjoy their inheritance and growing their family there.
@fatness1974 , The Ipswich is a great family home. It's great that you included stuff for pets and a music room. I like how the library looks with the sailboat rug. Great house! Got it rec'd and placed in game. (FYI: I find the best daylight time for taking photos is between 10 am and noon in live mode. Hope that helps for next time. )
@chojrak, thanks for providing the new version of Pumpkin Moon.
@IdahoGal65 , thanks for adding another chapter, I enjoyed reading about the various characters. Had a chuckle at the guys peeing their pants at the disco, haha!
I started making the last house of claimed lots, but I'm not sure abouts outside color. Will pale yellow be ok? It's really toned down. Trims and windows are still white.
A very nice home @chojrak . I love the landscaping and the way you set the house towards the back. Haven't had a chance to go in game yet but from the pics looks like a cool little lemonade stand in front. Another great home for our sims. Link added to page 1. Well done!

And yes, a pale yellow should be fine since pastels are on the list for exterior walls.

@chojrak - Love the angled porch and its roof, the mix of rock and siding, and the pretty landscaping. The way you did the arches along the hallway upstairs is interesting and I like the interest that the angled couch adds too.
I would like to claim, A18 / 40 x 40 / Residential / 18 Oyster Avenue
Wonderful, welcome to the collab @Puddinroy ! Your claim has been noted. Please review the guidelines on page 1 if not already done. Looking forward to your creation. Enjoy!

@chojrak, Plum Grove is such a pretty lot. I like how the house sits in the back corner and how you laid out all the trees. And the way you did the front porch with the rock siding on the front portion is very attractive. Nice job!
Hello again! I keep trying to make the lot I claimed but I keep getting sick and generally having life interfering. If someone else wants to take that lot, they are welcome to. Sorry about this. I'm looking forward to the world being full!
@Charlottekn sorry to hear you are feeling so awful. Hope you feel better soon. You are missed.
@soocoolsim@Charlottekn I would be happy to give up my claim I94 / 20 x 30 / Residential / 94 Blobfish Path and swap for Charlottekn's A12 / 30 x 20 / Residential / 12 Starfish Lane. I have worked on 2 designs and neither feels like it is right for 94 blobfish. Just can't get a handle on that lot... had ideas but the execution is lacking. I was going for a loner/fisherman shack... I don't have the skills I guess for that much of a sloped lot or something lol. I am sure someone else could do a brilliant build there
Sorry to hear things have been rough @Charlottekn , and hope you feel better soon. No worries about your claim and thanks for circling back to let us know. Hoping you can at least enjoy playing CA

Thanks @ciane 🙂 I like using alt while rotating objects to get not obvious angles. Though I feel most builders do that in Sims 3 and it's not any secret nowadays.
Does anyone know where to find the fireman's coat that hangs on the wall? I've searched high and low for it. I know it was in a place that wasn't logical.

Hope you'll get back to health soon @Charlottekn ✳✨
