Medieval Handcrafted Fabric Walls
I really do like the way these walls turned out. In the description for these walls I mentioned that in the Middle Ages people would use panels of fabric to decorate their interior walls .... sort of pre-wallpaper era. I thought that was an interesting concept, so I gave it a try. They actually turned out better than I expected. Also, you will find most of these wallcoverings in Hamm and Nana Totts Cottages. Not the whole set, but most of them. I truly hope you like them! And one last thing, I have found some interesting sites that have wonderful medieval items (free), if you would like the links ... PM me!
Hamm Cottage
On this cottage I used the Maxis roof shingles (green, AHHH!) so you might want to look around for a more suitable custom shingle to use. A rough, chunky shingle would be best. Pictured below is a shingle by Shannanigan here at TSR. I have carefully checked all her items and it looks like this particular shingle is no longer available. But I wanted to show you the difference of what a different roof texture would make. Good hunting to you!

Nana Totts' Cottage
Yep, another cottage .... It's larger than Hamm's Cottage .... and there is room for a driveway, if you need one. Just pull a tree or 2 out, there is room.
Potter's Reclaimed Doors
Okay, they are not pretty ... but I do enjoy using them in my game for my 'trashed and crumbling' neighborhood lots. So, I thought I would share them. Please note that if you have downloaded my Hallowdene Cottage .... the door that comes with it is NOT the way I had it planned. Pictured below is the door that actually goes with that cottage. That stinky Maxis recoloring problem raised its' head (*curses and spits 3x's*) and I had to upload Hallowdene with the Door of a Distant Land (or whatever it is called) in place of the one I had recolored. But now ... you can have the 'original' Hallowdene door ...yes, it is true! Hopefully, my Potter's Reclaimed Doors will be approved ... you can have it for your very own ...LOL!
Hallowdene Cottage
I decided to give this one a try again here at TSR. Had some trouble uploading it to the site. Please note that 2 meshes are required, Targa's LadderStairs and tigdad's Small Dbl. Window. Both items are over at MTS2. I used the moveobjects on cheat to place the stairs.

Rosalinde's Caravan and Seasons EP
A slight problem here if you are using the Seasons EP (who knew?). The roof will not keep the snow and rain out of the cars. To fix ... remove roof panels and lay flooring down, replace roof panels. This will take care of the problem.Nomadic Rosalinde's Caravan
A bit of silliness here. Definitely unusual. For those who like the odd and a little bit off center .... this is perfect for you. LOL! I do apologize for all the extras that need to be downloaded for this lot (8 items). They are all necessary for the house to look right and most important are Targa's ladderstairs over at MTS2. I have such trouble working with Maxis' big, clunky stairs since most of my houses are on the tiny side. So if you do download the house, please don't forget Targa's ladderstairs. Personally I think they are very cool and they save so much space for more interesting things. Enough of my blah, blah, blah! Here are some pix for you!




Moon & the Stars Eye Selection
Definitely for those who want to add some novelty and whimsy to their Simmies. 9 'starry' eyes to choose from.

Pointy-Ear Phase!
Yes, I'm back into those Sims with big pointy ears! I am working on some items for the elven folk and starting with bedding here at TSR. I also have some Elegant Elf clothing over at MTS2 for those of you into the elf-thing. Here are some pix of the upcoming bedding ....(hopefully) ...





Pitiful Pearl Bedding
Four lovely patterns to choose from! No that is NOT true. Four god-awful patterns to choose from! But you know in 'some' houses, nice, pretty bedding just doesn't fit. That's why I created these semi-ugly, shabby, blah bedcoverings. It was needed I tell you, LOL! Here are 2 samples in game-play.....
