Ty!! I still have another floor too make and i keep finding stuff i want to add! im hoping to have filled it out some more when im finished! I learned how to lift items from the ground, when building the house! That helped alot aint gonna lie! i did flowers in the window as an example!! 

Also the chairs with different colors was some of the first i did!! The whole house is made to be just one big colorful house! c: It's def my style, wish i could live in it irl

Yes! I just gotta figure out stuff slowly   

I just gotta figure out a household! I'm thinking a little friend group! c:

That's true, and you will continue to learn and improve as you keep building more! Youtube is a great source, both for inspiration and technical tips and advice on how to build, but you can also come here and ask and I'm sure someone will be able to answer your questions

Ah yes, a friend group would fit that house perfectly!

I been into watching Deligracy on youtube! That's where i found the 'Get Together' pack! It gives me something to when I'm bored too, it's lovely 

I will for sure use both u guys and youtube for help! You guys are smart and full of good ideas xD

Is it the video where she disabled all packs except get together you're referring to? Cause that makes a lot of sense, haha. I've watched her videos a lot too, they're great! 

Many here have a lot of experience with the sims, haha

Yea, haha!! I keep having her channel pop up on my youtube, even before i downloaded sims again! xD

I used to play sims, but i never did my own houses, because i thought i was too bad at it

She is one of the sims youtubers with the biggest following I believe, and she also doesn't just fall into one category, but does everything from building and tutorials to gameplays, challenges and pack reviews. So if you have watched any kind of sims video at some point, it isn't too surprising that she shows up

I also rarely built my own houses in the beginning because I just didn't understand how to and it looked like crap (I was 9-10 though, but still), but slowly as I got more invested in the game and didn't feel like the pre-build houses fit any of my households, I started experimenting with the build tool. I first started renovating the existing lots as building from scratch seemed too daunting, but after a little while (and with the help of hours and hours of watching people build on youtube) I started building my own houses as well, and now I actually enjoy building more than gameplays! I'm still not the most creative or talented when it comes to sims builds, but I do know a trick or two and I have made some decent builds over the years, haha

Building is definitely some of the most fun too! 
Always wanted sims as a kid, but never got it. Fun to finally live the childhood dream, haha!

And just to share this, I recently found two new builders on youtube, Aveline and Schnuck, that I've been loving. They're both amazing and I really recommend checking out both their channels! And Schnuck's stop motion builds are just so satisfying to watch ahah
