A smaller Paddock Gate

I found I needed an additional smaller passage for the paddock fence as I also use it for my chicken run for consistency. But the regular gate is just too big for that. I don't think you can ride a horse through there. But that's not what it's designed for. Cloned it from the steel gate of the same EP, so it has the same properties. That's it! Maybe someone can need to use the gate as well, then enjoy!

More DHD Cupcake Lights Please!

Sometimes I don't understand the creators at EA. Sometimes they make a ceiling light in 3 different heights and sometimes not. Why? Then why the hell did they give us 3 different height walls? So that pendant lights that are too short look ridiculous?

Anyway, I think the cupcake lights are so cute, I had to have them in several heights. Even though I usually just play with the normal wall height, I love playing with the heights and making the lights smaller if necessary, as you can see in the next pictures.

The lights come in every original Swatch, of course, and a few Recolors, though not 100 or so, just a few that suit my taste. There is an extra recolour file for the original lights. As you can see, I have a fable for lilac shades. Feel free to create your own recolours and delete mine if you don't like them.

By the way, on the last picture you can see only my recolours.

A Simlish “Wow” Sign

Hi Sims-Fans! 🤩

I'm just digging through the "My Meshes”- Folder and found this sign that I designed for myself some time ago. And remember what I did it for. I had built a restaurant in San Myshuno instead of the fitness center and wanted to have a new sign for it.

Hihi, because you have a stunning view from there, if your sims sit on the terrace, the name finding was not difficult for me, very simple: “Wow” in simlish font. I used the fantastic font CherryVanilla by Franzilla. 

You can find it here on MTS.

Many thanks for that Franzilla. 💗

I thought, maybe someone will find it useful for their own Sims-Business. However, you need the GP "Dining Out" to use the shield. It comes in 16 swatches and can be mounted on the wall and/or on the charts intended for that.

Have fun! 😘

Hi guys,

Here is an older Post by me on Sims4Studio .

Sometimes I find these 3D foundations with the thick trims just too much, especially if they are rather small houses. But I love the red bricks just at small cottages. So some time ago I made the appropriate foundations for the Industry Matters Walls without these trims. Maybe you can use it, so I like sharing it with you. Hope you like it. Have fun. :)

Culinary Caddy Add-On – Appliance Slot Update!

Here’s a small but super handy add-on I made for the Kitchen Clutter Kit:

I’ve updated the Culinary Caddy to support small appliances—yes, that includes the coffee maker, grinder, and other countertop gadgets! You can now place them directly on the caddy, and they’ll work as expected in-game.

About this item:

I’ve added appliance slots to the Culinary Caddy object. That means you can now place coffee makers, grinders, toasters, and more right on the caddy surface.

Use it in cozy kitchens, bistros, or anywhere space is tight but functionality matters.

The object remains unchanged visually — you keep the clean design of the original caddy, but it’s now way more versatile.

⚠️ Requires the official Kitchen Clutter Kit to work.

Enjoy!

Horse Ranch is a great pack for builders, buuuuutt... I'm still going to make more add-ons, and since Studio's last update added build trims my dreams came true. I've said it before: Stuff. Has. To. Match.

DL -> ZIP on SFS

Did I surprise you?

This set includes only build mode objects that use the wood texture and swatches from Horse Ranch to match that EP. You don't need it to use these, but it looks good together. Finally I can have these wooden roof trims for all my log cabins!

It honestly drove me nuts that they gave us a foundation but no platform. The rest kinda just slippery sloped along later...

I kinda fixed this TS4 wallpaper

These are some screenshots with my fixed version.

You can download it here [Google Drive] if you like!

✿ Free CC ✿ Base Game compatible ✿ 12 swatches total (for now) (not the base game ones)

Explanation of what was fixed and swatch photos after the cut!

If you've ever taken screenshots with this wallpaper (Bathhouse Blues) in your builds, you've seen that it clips with the ceiling of rooms, like so:

And for some reason, this wallpaper does not clip ONLY in tall wall height:

Which, of course...

Pissed me off.

So, I decided to make my own with the corrected short and medium height textures.

Here's the comparison with and without the ceiling visible:

Unfortunately, I didn't make the same base game colors.

For now, the wallpaper has 12 swatches:

I will fix the base game swatches in the future as well, and I will make the Edwardian Tile match every swatch, base game and mine. I also made it a little bit cheaper than the base game one. Just because I can.

FREAKING DID IT First Sims 4 recolor ever! Only the purple one on the right, though.

No one will stop me now, I'll make ALL the swatches that I feel are missing from Base Game Might even post the full packages here whenever I'm done with things. If anyone wants them, let me know!
