Sims 4 - Crafting Room # 6 - Sculpture & Painting

Still there? Not too fed up pf that HUGE crafting room? Because there's more! :D

Sculpture & painting thema, with "work-in-progress" paintings that you can put on floor or on an easel, where you can also put paint tubes (new, used, old), brushes... You'll find also empty frames.

For sculpture, a trestle, stands, blocks, sculpture in progress and tools. I turned a stand into a wo...

Sculpture & painting thema, with "work-in-progress" paintings that you can put on floor or on an easel, where you can also put paint tubes, brushes... You'll find also empty frames, and two Sims 4 conversions of canvas to put on floor.

Suggestions - Crafting room - missing pieces?

I thought I was done with the crafting room, when I realized I had forgotten to make a sewing box and male "dressforms"! So I'm going to add these.
Is there anything you think I forget in sewing/knitting/painting/sculpting? Is there something you would have really liked to see and you're disappointed I haven't done it?

Tell me! :)

Sims 4 - Star Trek drinks

A tiny pause in my crafting room thema (that will come back for next update), with something rather unexpected from me: Star Trek drinks! I wanted to make something for Patrick's day, but something different from what I usually do, and I also wanted to fullfill one of your requests, so here you go: Star Trek drinks, but that can be used in any regular game as well (the Romulan ale will be the n...

Sims 4 - Crafting Room #5 - Sewing

More stuff for our huge crafting room, this time, it's for sewing!
I haven't made a functional sewing machine (not enough time, not enough skills probably, and also because MizoreYukii is working on one, so it would be vain to spend time on this while she's going to release hers much earlier than I could have done wi...

Sims 3 - Crafting Room #5 - Sewing

It's been a while since I wanted to make a mesh for Lyralei's fantastic functional sewing machine, but having to spend days on my own real sewing machine to sew masks against Covid had discoraged me of doing anything sewing related in the S...

Sims 4 - Crafting Room #4 - Clutter

Sims 4 - Crafting Room #2 - Furniture

You have no idea how much this theme inspires me! There's tons of stuff I want to do! :D For this update, we'll get the furniture, with a high desk with cases in which you can put boxes, cases or other clutter. It comes with a bar chair, plus matching regular chair & rocking chair. You'll also find a shelf and drawer cabinet, a simple coffee table.
Last, you'll get a pegboard with tons o...

Sims 4 - Crafting Room #1 - Knitting

There's so many stuff I want to make for this Crafting Room thema (CCHoarders can post their suggestions here) that I'll have to split these updates into several sets.

We're starting with knitting clutter, including functional knitting basket (existing also in decorative version). The...

Sims 4 - Valentine's Day (Wall frame added the 2/2)

As "yes" won to the question "shall I make some CC for Valentine's day?", here's a set for you, dear friends! :) Among the CC Hoarders suggestions, I picked the "Farmhouse" thema, but you gave me ideas for few years! ;D

You'll find heart cushions in 3 different positions, a candle, little frames with romantic inscriptions in english and in simlish, a heart mug (that you can "imbracate" wi...

Sims 4 - Backpacks as portable dressers & more...

A "this & that" update/fix with stuff you requested some time ago:
- I turned my backpacks into a portable dresser, so you can have them in your Sims inventory, put them in world to be used to change of outfits and put them back in your Sims inventory.
- my prehistoric cribs required an invisible crib mod that is now outdated (or that doesn't exist anymore?). I've been asked to remake...

Sims 3 - Kitchen cabinets add-ons + Sims4to3 Microwave

A tiny "this & that" update with the long awaited empty cabinets to match with the Cargaux and the Harbinger kitchens. They've been requested long time ago... here they are! Though I had the weird idea to take pictures of them empty, they of course have slots, so you can fill them with all the clutter you want! :)
I've added a Sims 4 microwave, all animated, to be used as a micro-wave (h...

Sims 4 - Toasted breakfasts (edible food) - Updated 2022/04/29

Here are more recipes to get with toasters: baguette, pop tarts, tortilla, toasts, english muffins, etc!
I've also updated my older toasters so you can get those fancy food with any of them. Warning, the toasters need now the toaster mod (ATS4_mod_toaster), as it makes the eventual future updates easier.

EDIT: No more based on fridge but on vending machine.

Sims 3 - Decorative raclette & toasted breakfast + edible food

I hope being able to learn how to make custom meals/recipes for Sims 3, but in the meanwhile, the food is only decorative, sadly, except morsels!
You'll find a decorative version of the Raclette I made for Sims 4 (even as decor, my Sims couldn't NOT have a raclette machine for their snowy holidays! They'll use it with a plate of cheese! :D) and plates/food of toasted breakfast. You'll also f...

Sims 4 - Advent Calendar - Day 4 (updated)

Doh, silly me, I wanted to delete the attachment to replace the file by an updated one, but I deleted the whole post instead, so it's a new post instead of being a simple edit...
I don't remember what was my babble here...
Anyway, if you play with low graphic settings, the cover was closed, making hard to grab the yogurt pots, so I fixed that (thank Michela for the head up, I'm sorry, I'v...

Valentine's Day - Poll

Like Halloween, Valentine's day is usually not something that inspires me, I feel like, here as well, that everything and its dog has been made already... But maybe there's still something to do?
You decide! Just like for Halloween, if you vote "yes", you'll have to suggest me something as precise as possible. If the "yes" wins, I'll choose among your propositions. :)

Sims 4 - La Raclette (fixed)

I told you that I wanted to send my Sims skiing, even if I don't ski myself? Well, here's how I consider ski: eating a raclette! You melt your cheese slice using that little machine, and then pour it over a hot potato. Typical from french/swiss Alps. Most of the times, it's served with charcuterie (cold meats), but as I'm vegetarian, it's only potatoes and cheese for me, so there's also those t...

Sims 3 - Sims4to3 Snowy Escape

I've converted some snow related objects from Snowy Escape to build my  own winter activities station, here's what you'll find today:
- decorative items, like gates, gondola pole, signs & banners (that are all CAW enabled, so you can also use them in Edit a World)
- the tent (that my trekkers will love!)
- the snowboard can be used as the Into the Future Hoverboard
- the go...

Suggestions for sewing room/crafting room

Hello, dear friends!

Next month(s!), I'm finally going to work on the sewing room I wanted to make since the release of the Knitting stuff pack, and it might end up in a more general crafting room, as some of you suggested.
I've also already written down suggestions from the Advent calendar that could fit the theme.

Do you have any suggestions, anything you'd like to see? I can'...

Suggestions for toasters

I'm going to add few recipes to my toasters: toasts, french baguette, english muffins...
What else do you toast? I know some toast croissants but I find that a bit heretic *lol* (though if you really want croissants to be toasted, I'll make that for you! ;D)

Sims 4 - Ski blush & glasses

People coming back from ski holidays are often easily recognizable, thanks to their sunburn or blush: I wanted this for Sims! It comes in two sunburns (light and heavy), and in two colors of tan.
I've also used Sims 4 ski glasses to make hair accessory.
