1. Caress Wheel Barrench (§275) < Indoor Plants < Decorations
2. Captain Chaz MacFreeling’s Galleon (§1225) < Sculptures < Decorations
3. PenguinVision Children’s Television Set (§275) < Televisions < Electronics

• Lot size: your choice anywhere in any of the five cities
• House must contain at least one bathroom and areas to sleep, eat and prepare food. The style, number of rooms and levels is up to you!

LINK TO ENTRY SLIDESHOW: http://s1078.photobucket.com/user/osiazul/slideshow/Balance
ENTRY DETAILS: I chose the In the Balance Antique Scale. I build a steampunk house for one or maybe two sims who look for knowledge. I feel the steampunk is the balance between past and future, reality and imagination, and what we know and what we will discover.

ENTRY DETAILS:
I chose the Caress Wheel Barrench for my Spring Showdown item. This is my first time trying to build a Victorian house, but I've always wanted to try it. There are some of these houses in my city and they look so pretty. This house is made for a family with kids and because there are 4 bedrooms, it is suitable for a big family.

LINK TO ENTRY SLIDESHOW: Slideshow
ENTRY DETAILS: I chose the Ordinary Things Shadowbox Display as my inspiration object. To me it conveyed a sense of the handmade, useful and everyday. I imagined a family of four moving in—the father, a scientist and craftsman, who loves working with wood and probably built much of the furniture and shelving in the house; the mother, an artist and writer; a teenage son with ambitions to be a rockstar; and a little girl, who is creative and fascinated by life. The Craftsman style of Amercian houses seemed like the perfect model for what to build. I used lots of dark wood, mostly contrasted with white walls and pops of red and green.
SIM: The Jansons family
