      I couldn't resist making a study in the attic for my sims.

        Your attic art study is great! 🙂Your sim will have very nice views through the windows whilst painting there, in the nice sunshine. Very nice furnishing with art themed items.

      Your art studio is great! 🙂Very nice furnishing using items from the new kit. The room design is great. Very nice easel painting area with great splattered paint on the floor.

        Thank you! I was going for the "starving artist" look, where she's trying to fit everything in a spare, musty room off her garage.

      Your basement art studio is lovely! 🙂Very nice furnishing with items from the new kit and sunny yellow colour. The sunflowers are pretty. The design is very nice.

  • I was lucky to win the nursery kit in a giveaway, so I had fun upgrading my top level aristocracy houses with much better nursery items than before. The royal palace has no members younger than teen, so they did not get my attention this time. But in 3 of the 5 dukedoms there are minors (or at least there were, recently).

    Starting with the Rossie Palace in Old New Henford. Duke Jarret and Duches Ribra Lynn have a total of 5 sons, and the youngest, Lord Clempus, is only 2 years old and a toddler.

    This is the nursery. It's the room nearest to the master bedroom. Lord Clempus is the only child who is currently at the palace, so the duchess decided they need no governess, He will use this room until he starts school (aged 5). The interior is a mix of what was originally in there and new items from the kit. Red is House of Ross' signature color, so if the room appears a tad dark, it is intentionally.

    Near the entrance is where the toddler sleeps. The palace is huge, so I need to limit their walking whenever there is a chance :)

    ----

    At the estate of Duke Merlin von Windenburg, at Windenburg Isle, they had 5 kids over 6(?) years, including two sets of twins! At one time they were all toddlers, and the house was pure chaos, with a cow, chicken, and of course a Servant. The estate was renovated few years ago, but although it is a large build, the bedrooms are not spacious. Nowadays only the youngest twins, Lord Justov and Lord George, use the nursery.

    I just about managed o squeeze in 2 toddler beds. The reason why only one has the veil is that the oldest boy is their main heir. Yupp, his dad, Duke Merlin, is 80, so it will be interesting seeing how this House gets administrated over the next couple decades.

    One reason this nursery is quite small is a platform section in one corner. Up the stairs there is a play room with toys. I often found the toddlers up there playing in the middle of the night...

    ---

    Finally, Duke Charlopold and Duchess Luna de Cavalier (Brindleton) married only few years ago and are busy establishing their family. Their first child was a girl, but these dukedoms can only be passed on to sons. Luckily, they had a boy on 2nd attempt, Lord Merquess is still an infant.

    It's not the most spacious nursery the world ever saw, but it is closer to the main stairways and the master bedroom than the bedroom wing. Will need to work more on his, it looks a tad chaotic :)

    Duchess Luna enjoys motherhood, although she is working outside the chateau most days. I'm looking forward to seeing these kids grow up, but I expect there to be at least one more lord or lady in the line...

      Each of the nurseries are lovely! 🙂 The designs and colours of each one are very nice. The ways you have used the new kit items in the rooms are lovely. It was great reading the background details of the families that you made the nurseries for.

  • I really like the story book nursery kit. It feels like a kit that can fit my spellcasters. Finally spellcaster infants and toddlers have a bed that suits the style of the rest of the house. I tried to create a room for some spellcaster siblings to share. Unfortunately the colors are a bit hard to match. So I am still exploring how to handle this best. But I definitely have a new favorite toddler bed and infant play mat.

    I also got the artist kit. I wasn't planning on but I need to level up the woodworking skill for a new family and after 7 years of playing (only started when toddlers were added) I was tired of the old woodworking table. The woodworking table is the only reason why I want this pack. It is so nice to have a new and nice looking alternative to the base game version.

      Each of the varieties of your nursery are lovely! 🙂 The colours of each one are very nice and great design and layout of the rooms. Very lovely furnishing with items from the kit. The new woodworking table is great! 

  • First of all, sorry for not commenting on the other studios before.

    rosemow  - Thank you very much for your comment. The truth is that I also loved the light and the views, while I was watching her paint.

    LixyQuinn170 - Your studio doesn't lack anything, even the coffee maker, so you can clear your head and continue painting. hahaha  ☕🎨
    And the combination of wood and yellow is very warm and cheerful. 

    WisdomBuilders  - What a charming and cozy studio. In addition, the colors and decos make it look very realistic. 🎨
