Hello helloo! I know you’ve been waiting for this!! 👀 Let’s talk a little about the next steps for the Nancy collection!
If you’ve been following this adventure and reading all of my posts (thank you!!), you probably remember that last month’s set was supposed to be all about windows and doors. Unfortunately, I completely underestimated how difficult they would be to make and ended up changing the theme entirely. So it only felt right that this month I finally tackled some windows!!
I especially wanted to create something that looked like this:
I can proudly say that I managed to create full angled windows that fit perfectly right under the roof! They come in many different shapes and sizes so they can adapt to pretty much any length. To top it all off, I also made one and two tile full height windows and I worked really hard to make sure they let in as much light as possible. I can’t wait for you to try them out!! They’re perfect to pair with the angled windows for gorgeous double height rooms, but they also work beautifully on their own.
After that, I decided to have some fun and create handmade roof textures! I’m honestly so happy with how they turned out because I really dislike most Sims 4 roofs and now I can finally say I have one I truly love in game!! It comes in lots of shades, both neutral and colorful, so it’s super versatile. My personal favorite is the blue-ish one shown in the pictures above!
Then I went looking for even more roof inspiration on Pinterest and stumbled across this picture:
I absolutely fell in love with it and immediately knew I needed it in my game ASAP! So I got to work and created a modular system that lets you build a really cute porch setup. The main item is a porch awning about 4 tiles wide that you can place above your main entrance door. I even made sure to include a picture showing the bottom details because I know nobody will ever look at it from that angle and I refuse to let my hard work go unnoticed lmaooo.
This item also comes in 2 standalone versions: the wooden structure and the roof itself. That way, you can fully customize it with as many color combinations as you want! All of the pieces are also easy to place underneath any Sims 4 roof, so even if you don’t use my roof swatches but still want a porch, you can simply create a small roof, extrude one side, and place the wooden structure underneath it. It gives the exact same effect as the original version I made!
Obviously, the porch can’t just float in the air, so I also recreated the cute columns from the inspiration picture. They come in all 3 wall heights! Right now they’re standalone items, but I’m still deciding whether I want to turn them into proper functional columns because that’s an extremely long and difficult process.
I still have to see where this set takes me, but you can definitely expect more windows, hopefully a door or two and lots of cute decorations!
Be sure to let me know what you think of the progress and if you have any ideas!! Until the next one ...🥰♥️
