My Showcase thread https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/948861/rosemow-s-rooms-showcase
I'll work on an entry and try to get it in either by Friday afternoon or Sunday. I skipped the rest of the thread cause I didn't want to see anyone else's ideas and derail mine, lol. But Hi to everyone!!
YAY! Glad you can still make it!
Are we allowed to change the outside at all? Like roof color or wall coverings?
Can I move the existing windows one step to the left/right if I need because I'm building interior walls?
Can I add one window next to the frontdoor?
Can I move windows slightly because to center them in rooms?
Yes, I think this falls under being able to change the windows but sure, they can be moved to accommodate walls and room movements.
Thanks! I just wanted to check because I had the feeling I might have taken to many liberties. I'm done with the downstairs and am moving upstairs.
I think it's great that you have extended the deadline because the house is rather large (or maybe it's just me and my perfectionist side kicking in).
Still~ trucking through my entry. She's going slow, but i'm really, really happy with her thus far ^.^ Things are falling into place. MWAHAHAHAHA

7aquaman7 had a problem. At first he didn't realize it as he had gotten this huge lot with a beautiful farm house on it for a very good deal. He first realized he had a problem when he pulled up in front of the lot and saw a house, barn, garage, horse training area, and a garden and not much else.
Worse yet when the door to the house swung open it revealed nothing except an echo. How could he manage to decorate and landscape this lot while still having fun in the town? Then it dawned on him...he pulled out his super cool new smart phone and dialed.
Tanubanue arrived a short time later and after hearing a bit of what Aqua required she put some festival tickets in his hand and firmly showed him to the door telling him not to return until she called again.
He was right in the middle of sharing a snow cone with a young woman born to be his bride when the call came telling him it was time to return. Excitedly he kissed his date good-bye and started for his new home.
He pulled up and noticed right away that there was a glimmering new sign surrounded by flowers and bushes and trees dotted the yard. The horse arena had been raked and soft new dirt put down for the horses hooves. A pond had been dug where he could spend a lazy evening fishing and the horses could drink their fill. The garden had been weeded and new plants were already growing beneath the watchful eye of the scarecrow. A playground area stood ready to entertain his future children. He ran first to the garage where he saw a brand new pick up perfect for carrying those hay bales and a special area just for his tools. The entire yard was now fenced in to keep out unwanted company and he made his way out the back door. On his way to the barn he noticed the rockers on the front porch and the brand new BBQ shining on the back porch. When at first he entered the barn the stairs between the stalls caught his eye and he ran up them. There was storage and an area for his barn cats. He rushed back down the stairs and in his hurry didn't notice the set of stairs heading down through the basement floor....
Aqua went around to the front of the house and with a deep breath opened the front door. This time it wasn't empty and hollow at all. A staircase was directly in front of him. He went up the stairs and at the top was beautiful stone fireplace, one of three in his new home. To the left were two children's room and a children's bath in between. There was also a master bedroom with a walk in closet and a master bath. On the left of the fireplace was a gate walk through to a nursery and large play area which opened up to the floor below. In the corner was a room with items to increase his skills while being able to keep an eye on the kids in the play room.
Back down stairs Aqua discovered a large kitchen with a formal attached dining room. Back out next to the stairs was a music/exercise area with a small room off to the side for tv watching and game playing. The back of the house was transformed into a living room which housed a chess table, sitting area, romantic nook, and an office reading area. The octagon room in the corner had been transformed into an artists room that his soon to be wife would love because of the floor to ceiling windows letting in plenty of natural light. Tucked under the stairs in the middle of the house was a room meant for romance and relaxation lit by little more than the fire place.
Just then the phone rang...it was tanu wondering how he liked the lot now especially the room under the barn....Aqua started back to the barn to find out...
I would like to add a link to a thread to show more pictures of the lot as I envisioned it:

Oh, and Tanabanue? I will try HARD not to count off for the use of the word CATS and the placement of items for said creatures having anything to do with one of my homes since I didn't state it in the rules but know your client hehe. Fortunately for you 2 of the judges own cats
I will try to start a thread in creative corner to put up more pictures but I don't use photo bucket. Not sure if I'll have time though as I'm going away for the weekend.
And as for the cats, I didn't know you didn't like them but now I do and growing up around many many farms I never once saw one that didn't have barn cats but usually they slept in the hay :P Besides kitties are awesome! lol
Awesome! The more the merrier! Look forward to seeing it!
(no ts3 wishlist, because I own the store)
