Ahhh Matt...Gracie’s Next Boyfriend But Not End Game Poor Girl. Loved Using Some Base Sims For These

~ S U M M E R ~ “Hey!” A stranger in a polka dotted bikini waved at Gracie and Matt as they emerged from the water glistening wet.

“Hi!” Matt responded waving in a friendly manner while Gracie tried to follow suit by sending the girl a reserved wave. From the safety of Matt’s shadow of course

“We just lost a few players for our volleyball game. Want to play?” Her eyes were open and kind.

“Sure!” Matt responded without so much as a glance towards Gracie. He started walking towards them. Gracie followed and began to towel herself dry, watching Matt and marveling at how being friendly came so easy to him (and at his muscles).

Matt gave her a friendly nudge, “Earth to Grace. You ready?”

“Uhm it’s just that I’ve never done this before. You know, volleyball.”

He didn’t bat an eye, “Then it will all the more fun to teach you. Come on”

Gracie opened her mouth to argue but Matt was already walking away so instead she obediently followed. Much to her surprise she found herself enjoying the company, especially the outgoing Natalia. By the end of the day Gracie had exchanged numbers with some of the girls and promised to come play again.

A fun collab for @simblrsimplyforfun with @simming-love and her beautiful sim Natalia. My computer kept crashing so I didn’t get to take as many photos but at least I could finish  This was to complete challenge 9! Frankie could I have the Fleur skin?

Sunset Valley Car Dealership

This build was inspired by the just released Sim State Open for Business Mod that will allow you to run you very own business in the Sims 3! I was privileged to be a Mod Tester and decided I wanted to run a car dealership for the sims of Sunset Valley, so Ta-Dah! Here is a fully functional (or a great decorative lot) new Car Dealership for your sims. 

Built on a 30x50 Lot (to replace the Art Gallery in Sunset Valley)  Lot Type: Hangout

Tried to keep it as BG friendly as possible, but I used a few items from different packs below. Packs Used: UN,LN,ST

University: Planters, Office Chairs, Office Desk, Side table Late Night: Counters, Sofa Chairs, Irish Pub Stand Showtime: Barstools

CC Used: 

Around the Sims 3 Grocery Register Savier Seller Version

VKG BSI Square Hedge

Custom Cars from Fresh Prince Creations for TS3 (Exact Cars used in the included CC List)

Also a few tips for running this lot with Sim State: 1. First swap out the ATS Register with the SimState Register 2. Open your business from the computer on this lot (not your home computer!) 3. Stock up on a few Sloppy Jalopys and the cheap Jeep Wrangler as the sims tend to buy the less/least expensive at first and then the more expensive items help you level up your business fast!  4. Lock the office door with Nraas Go Here (optional but otherwise sims will be hanging out on your office computer all the time :P ) 5. Become a Business Boss! In my tests I was usually able to reach a 5 star business within a week or two of playing (depending on your store hours of course ;) I had a TON of fun as it was sooooo gratifying to watch the Bunch family teens come buy their first car, or the Keaton’s get their “family car”.  Just watch those evil sims *cough*  Claire Ursine *cough* to see if they try to steal anything!

~  S U M M E R ~ “Hey guys, just wanted to share some progress on my house reno. The floor plan of the down stairs has completely changed to make it more open concept, removing walls that separates the kitchen from the living space and putting up walls to create a new guest bedroom, half bath, and laundry room. Kitchen is still a wip but please enjoy my summer living room. I’m currently loving these white and blue wildflower pillows!”

Needed to build a house to take some preview pictures for my next cc conversion set and I was in CC heaven today. I mean look at this sim with hair by @rollo-rolls​, beautiful dress and hat by @keibea​ who makes the most perfect outfits. I just am so happy with little test sim Callie that now I have to find a way to keep her. 

But also, checked out the world of Mount Estelle by @pxelblobs​ and IT IS SO FREAKING GORGEOUS! The parks are fan-freaking phenomenal and I was blown away. My build is taking shape and is based off of this wonderful Sims 4 one here X but had to check out the rest of the world too. The parks are so beautiful and the library is 100% amazing. With all that beautiful cc I couldn’t help but take even these unedited photos. (Also shame on little Callie walking in a library barefoot ;) 

Just wanted to say thank you to these wonderful creators and share so hopefully others can enjoy too. Also hoping to finish up the last little things and have a conversion released soon. TSRW has been kicking my butt! But I’m very hopeful that soon I will have some wonderful, high quality conversions to share. 

*Also I fixed my Hylewood save and just need to organize some screenies and queue them up. Also have a few more Christmas conversions I just need to finish and post and then who knows where the new year will take us!

Hello again :)

Hello, to those of you still hanging around here! So sorry I missed Simblrween this year, but I'm happy to share that I have some new CAS Backgrounds coming out tomorrow, and more almost ready (just need preview pics) to release soon! So yay for more conversions coming! If you'd like to read on about what else I'm working on and what I've been doing in my personal life read below :)

First if I've been a little MIA its because I just delivered a healthy baby boy. Yay! But pregnancy left me super tired so I had very little energy left for conversions. I've still been building and trying to play a little rotationally, so I may share some more of the pics from that play time but we'll see.

As far as conversions I have some small "mini sets" of buy mode CC as well as a LOT of half finished conversions that I'd like to polish up and at least share the finished parts. Converting is such a learning curve and because of all the other things I've had going on in RL it hasn't been a priority to continue to poke around and trouble shoot. But with that said, I have also learned a lot and gotten some help (shout out to the amazing Creator's Cave Discord) so while I'm in the simming mood I'd love to give back to all of you and hit that publish button before life gets busy again so stay tuned. Anyhow, I hope you enjoy tomorrows CAS backgrounds! Have a great day

Well guys, I’m back with some happy/sad news. I lost my job in Appaloosa Plains (to the Principle’s niece no less) and because of that I’ve had to move. I’m so sad to be leaving my Grandmothers Victorian/Farmhouse behind, especially since I’d spent so much time and heart renovating it just how I liked.

But the good news is I’ve found another job in Winchester as a school teacher. It’s a much smaller school but I think it will be a good change. I’m coming on as a full time teacher and also an administrative aid and I’m hoping that during my time here I can really make a difference. So far I’m loving the small town community vibes here.

I’ve also been able to move into my own little farm here. Complete with garden and a little barn with a studio on top. I don’t paint but maybe I’ll have to start trying. The fall weather is so gorgeous and inspiring. The house needs some updating so I’m currently painting to start. As I make progress I’ll share.

Here’s to my favorite season and some new beginnings. Cheers.

-Gracie

You guys, we are getting a new mod for TODDLERS! Only the favorite age of all! I’ve gotten a sneak peak of this mod and it is awesome! So excited for it’s official release soon @zoeoe-sims!

Toddler Food Bowls...coming soon to a sad child near you

…should be ready soon-ish!

Blown away by the beautiful world of Rosewood Park by @gruesim. Fell in love with this little cottage that has a big back garden overlooking the sea and had to start decorating.

An old simblrsimplyforfun challenge but I love how these simmies turned out. I might need to add them in as townies for my current save. Also love love love this house by @kinsethdesign / @miss-sassy-simmer

Simblr Simply for Fun Mini Challenge 4

Loved this mini challenge from Frankie! Both these sims started so beautifully it was hard to change them!

Meet Ezekiel and Kira. I loved the freckles on Zephyr so I didn’t want to change his skin, but I did do some tweaking to his nose and mouth as well as new hair and clothes. In Winchester now he’s a firefighter who wants to promote and start a family with his fiancé Kira.

For Lina, I mostly just changed her eye shape and brow shape, but I love how the bangs soften up her face. In my mind she loves children, and she works at the Winchester Library, and she loves to get to know the kids and recommend books for them, as well as her weekly story time is legendary among the little tikes.

Thank you @gruesim for this fun challenge, and also thank you to @miss-sassy-simmer for the house I photographed them in. Could I have the Oz skin please?

If  you’d like to add them to your game (and I’d love to see them!) here are their links.
