Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
I am going to take a well deserved break from real life work and creating for sims until the beginning of January so I would like to take this opportunity and wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy and Prosperous New Year.
Merry Christmas
Hello all,
First I have something very sad to tell you: I will be away from TSR due to Sims 3 problems (My game is not working as usually and the launcher crashes everytime I try to acess it or to install CC). So, I don't know how much time I will be away from TSR(weeks or months), I know that is a shame but I'm trying to fix my laptop... I'm very sad with this situation and I hope I will be back soon :)
Merry Christmas to everyone!
Edward (Trustime)
Hey
Hey guys, im lolbuttcheese and this is my first time on the sims recource. Going to start creating stuff right now!

Hello, hello!
Oh my, it has almost been a month since my last blogpost.. never noticed that! Guess the busy life is really helping me off the road. Anyways, I'm really exhausted lately, though I'm still enjoying my free time on playing the sims or chatting with friends ^__^ but today, I decided something..
I made a tumblr, for my simmies.
click here!
Click on the "click here!" and you'll immediately be directed to the blog! Though today.. 15dec. nothing's on it yet. only one blogpost..!
Haha. anyways, I guess I'll be posting screenshots and small stories on it.. for now! =)
That's it for today, I wish y'all an awesome weekend!
xx hugsღ.
Christmas on Walton's Mountain
Work continues on my series of Christmas Movie Classic houses. I took a little liberty and left the big screen classics to re-examine a small-screen film that is almost forgotten. In 1972 CBS showed The Homecoming: A Christmas Story, based on the novel by Earl Hamner, Jr. That little movie spawned a much-loved TV series that ran for the next 10 years.
From the film to the TV series, some adjustments were made to the cast, the film location and the house set. However, the characters from Hamners book were given a new venue to develop and grow, becoming like family members to the millions of regular viewers.
Because the house from the series is more recognizable than the the set of the movie, I used it as the basis for my Walton's Mountain lot. You will notice a few upgrades since the Depression days. The barn is equipped with a science lab, workbench and gem cutter. The basement has been fully finished and furnished with a large games room, fitness facility, painting easels and a grand piano for Jason. There is also a seating area that would be perfect for that new-fangled gadget - the TV! Best of all there will be no more trips to the outhouse (although there is one on the lot). Instead there are 4 bathrooms in the house, 2 with multiple toilet stalls. Believe me, with 7 kids, Gramma and Grampa plus John and Livy Walton all living there - the more bathrooms the better!
If you get a chance this season, revisit The Homecoming: A Christmas Story. It's a Christmas Movie Classic.
Matching Fences and railing
This is the project I am currently working on. Did you ever had the feeling that there where fences and railings missing in the game? That is what I am working on right now. The picture below shows you is done allready, the missing fences matching the railings. Next will be the missing railings matching the fences :).
Hope you like it so far!
Holiday Madness

First speech
First of all I want to thank TSR staff for really helping me to be better and better in creating. If it wasn`t for them
I would not learn what I have learned. Also I want to thank a special person in here, Ung999 for her amazing help and
generosity.She is such a talented and warm person.
With that said, I wish you all a wonderful christmas season with lots of inspiration and love.
It's a Wonderful Life at the Old Granville House
As my kids grew up we developed an accidental Christmas Eve tradition: as we finished up the last preparations for celebrating Christmas Day with our extended family, we would light a fire in the fireplace, sip some hot, spiced apple cider and turn on the TV to watch IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE. It doesn't matter that we have watched it so many times before - we enjoy it just as much each year. Mostly it is the slowing down, gathering together in the glow of the tree lights and sharing the warmth of the story of George Bailey.
We aren't quiet while watching, though. If we were in a theatre we would definitely get "shushed". My husband and daughter have great minds for trivia and so throughout the movie they are filling us in on the names of the actors, what other movies they appeared in and other "pertinent" statistics. My son is a mimic and has a habit of memorizing the entire dialogue of his favourite movies. His imitation of Jimmy Stewart trying to deal with his customer's who want to withdraw all their money from the Bailey Savings and Loan cracks me up every time: "The money's not here. Your money's in Joe's house.... And in the Kennedy house, and Mrs. Macklin's house, and a hundred others."
Meanwhile I am trying to get a good look at The House. 320 Sycamore. The Old Granville House. Like Mary, I saw the potential even in the first grainy, black and white, filmed in the dark glimpses we get of it as George is walking Mary home from the dance.
George Bailey: OK then, I'll throw a rock at the old Granville house.
Mary: Oh no, don't. I love that old house.
George Bailey: No, you see you make a wish and then try to break some glass and you've got to be a pretty good shot nowadays too.
Mary: Oh no George don't. It's full of romance that old place. I'd like to live in it.
George Bailey: In that place?
Mary: Uh huh.
George Bailey: I wouldn't live in it as a ghost.
But of course George does end up living there. When he uses his honeymoon cash to keep the Savings and Loan afloat, Mary surprises him by setting up a love nest in the abandonded, old Victorian. I never did figure out if she bought it or they were just squatters! When Ernie and Bert bring George home to her she has a chicken roasting on the fire, the table laid for two, the bed made and travel posters over the broken windows to give the illusion of exotic locations. As usual, George is flummoxed.
Mary: Remember the night we broke the windows in this old house? This is what I wished for.
George: Darling, you're wonderful.
Behind the main story, is the house makeover that Mary engineers while her family grows. With all of George's talk and dreams about building great things, it is Mary that is building something - a cozy, comfortable home and a loving, happy family.
It is worth noting that today it is totally acceptable, even desireable to renovate a derelict old house with "good bones". But in Post-War America this was anything but popular. Everyone - including George - wanted "New and Improved" everything including houses. This was the time when the cookie-cutter suburbs exploded and every young couple aspired to a cute little Cape Cod or Ranch house with 2 cars in the driveway and 3.4 children in the yard. Mary's choice was quite unfashionable and George was quite aware that not only was his house in bad shape, it just wasn't cool.
Mary didn't mind though. She had a vision of what their family could be and of what the house could look like and eventually those things came together.
Watch for the Old Granville House to be available for download Dec. 7th and see what kind of life your Sims can make in it.

TUTORIAL: Placing lots of any size - and where (short guide)
I've been asked quite a few times now what world and location I use for my lot screenshots, and also how to place lots of varying sizes, so I've put together a simple tutorial (using the area I build in as an example) which I hope will answer both questions...
- 40 x 30 is fine
- 40 x 40 is fine
- 30 x 30 is not fine
RETURN THANKS FOR COMMENTS
Once again I am overwhelmed by the number of accummulated comments on my creations to the extent that I can only personally thank a handful of people for their wonderful support.
If you are not amongst this small offering, then please do not take it personally. I do read all postings, when my internet connection is stable enough to do so, and I am always uplifted by the kind and generous things that you tell me . . Thank you from my heart for all that you have done to keep my "creative juices" flowing and I hope you will continue to do so, even in the event you don't receive a direct response.
But, facts are facts, and I cannot get back to everyone - so please accept my humble gratitude by way of this post.
Stay safe, everyone, and continue to enjoy the wonderful, frustrating world of The Sims3.
Love
Marg.
Broadway musical tickets
Purchasing Broadway tickets online
Many individuals are confused whether or not they can buy Broadway tickets on
the Internet. People think that standing in line can be a good option for
buying tickets of Broadway show. However buying tickets through internet can be
a simple process and also affordable. It is because the tickets sold on the
Internet are often low priced. There are chances that tickets are sold at fewer
prices on internet in comparison to ticket booth.
Instructions for buying Broadway tickets online:
Begin by looking out for a reliable website that sells tickets for Broadway
shows. Make sure the site is authorized for selling tickets. Buying from
official seller will ensure that you will get the right tickets for the right
shows at right prices. It is essential for you to ensure twice that the site is
genuine and reliable.
At the time you are on the site you need to choose the Broadway musical tickets which you
would like to watch. Check out the alternatives such as shows or menu or you
can just type the show that you want to watch in order to get the details of
the show. With this you will get information on the timings of the show. You
can check out brief synopsis. With this you will also get idea about the theme
of the show.
When you want to buy Broadway tickets online you will have to click on 'book'
or 'buy' button. You will be directed to the rates of the Broadway shows. You
will also be allowed to select the time and date for which you will want to
book the show. Advance booking is easily possible with online booking system.
There is one more advantage that you can get though online booking. At the time
of purchasing Broadway musical tickets you can have a look at the arrangement
of seating also. When you check the seating arrangement you will also see the
diagram of pricing. The prices of the tickets will vary according the seating

tickets.
When you are booking your Broadway tickets make sure you also look for food or dining
options. See if there are any complimentary coupons offered on the tickets that
you book. This way you can enjoy your favorite musical show and food at prices
that you can afford.
Booking online means online payment. In order to book Broadway tickets you need
to have your credit card details in hand. Most of the sites accept credit
cards. If you do not have acceptable credit cards, then you will have to see if
there are any other ways of paying for the tickets.
You will be given a receipt once the procedure of payment is cleared. Tickets
will be mailed to you or you will be given the code number on your mobile
phone. You can show the details when you attend the show.
In order to confirm your booking you need to get in touch with the customer

Decorating Griswold Style
Do you have a favourite Christmas Movie? More importantly - for Sims building addicts like myself - do you have a favourite Christmas movie HOUSE? It's so much fun to slip away into that Hollywood world of imagination where everyone lives in a huge old Victorian house or a cozy stone cottage; where the tree is always a real tree and it's always tall and straight and fresh and spectacular; and where it ALWAYS snows on Christmas Eve.
This month I will be trying to recreate some recognizable Christmas Movie Classic houses for you to decorate and enjoy all the winter fun available in the Sims 3. There is some wonderful Holiday themed Custom Content made by TSR creators. I found great objects from BuffSumm, Canelline, deeiutza, DOT, fantasticSims, jomsims, Lulu265, Mutske, Severinka, Sim_man123, SIMcredible and Wolfspryte. And there are lots of festive outfits as well.
My first project is The Griswold House from National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation starring Chevy Chase, Beverly d'Angelo, Juliette Lewis, Randy Quaid and yes, Johnny Galecki as Russ Griswold! This movie is near the top of the list of Holiday favourites for a lot of people and there is lots of information out there about the making of the movie, the cast and the house where it was set. The house has been used in lots of films and is on a Hollywood backlot fake suburban street right next door to the house from Lethal Weapon and a few doors down from TV's Bewitched house. The interior decor for the movie was all about flowers, ruffles, pastels and tartan. So naturally I look to Djehmli to find the perfect classic florals and coordinating patterns, plus Hatshepsut's Pretty Plaid to recreate the look.
The uploaded lot doesn't have any Christmas decorations. I thought I'd leave it for Simmers to have fun decorating it their way. Check out my screenshots to see how Clark and Ellen Griswold are getting the house ready this year. And watch for the Griswold House and other Christmas Movie Classics to be available soon.

I finally finished uploading all the phots and now I have to write, which will take time. I do promise one thing, it should be up by the end of the week or maybe even tomorrow. I don't know when I really finish it, but I know that it will be up soon. I know that it took forever to post this one chapter, but I had a hard time trying to figure this one out. When it's finally finished, I'll make sure that you know about it.
-mischa :)
