Build-n-Share Challenge # 31 - Valentine's Arts & Crafts!

Thread for this week’s challenge: http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/168093.page

This Week’s Challenge Specifics:

Let's take a journey back in time. A journey back to when things were simple, when our daily schedule included lunch time, recess, nap time, and snack time.

Let's go way back...to elementary school.

I miss the days when back to school meant shopping for scissors, crayons, and glue. I miss the days when I spent hours covering shoe boxes with colored tissue paper an construction paper hearts.

Therefore, I declare this week

Arts & Crafts Week

at Build-n-Share!


For this week's assignment, your job is to create the prettiest darn Valentine's day "mailbox" you can create.

For those unfamiliar with this tradition, here's an example of a classic mailbox using the popular kids' show Dora the Explorer.

Some tips to consider:

1. Use a combination of regular walls and half walls to create a variety of levels, bands, and other decorative effects.
2. Consider alternative building materials like fences, windows, flowers, and more.

Side challenge:

Create valentines for your fellow Build-n-Share members using screenshots of your favorite sim couple, rose garden, etc. Share these on the photo thread, at Builders' Boulevard, or through a story on the site here.
