What's the Difference Between A Blueprint File and a Householdbin?

If this is in the wrong place, please forgive me.

Yesterday I looked for one of my builds and couldn't find it for love or money. Then it occurred to me I may have saved my file to my desktop. However, I had two, just named slightly differently. One is a back up, just in case. The other I dragged there to restart the folder. There are no saves or Mods folders in the older folder. In looking through the tray folder on the back up I was confused. What is the difference between a BLUEPRINT file and a Household bin? Are the blueprints for lots, and the household for Sims? I do wish they could be saved with the names given upon the build.

I found a house I liked on the Gallery, downloaded it and spent too much time redecorating it. Had I known it was going to take that much time, I would have simply built the place I couldn't find anew.

Please, and thank you, in advance.
