A tour of the house, II.

While I was waiting impatiently for the toddler update, I did some changes around the legacy house to keep myself busy. Although I made a plan on the progression of the different areas, like creating a high quality garden with the second generation and upgrading the kitchen appliances in the third, I just couldn't keep away from them any longer. Later I played around with the grungy wall decor options, and I really like the outcome. I think it really fits the theme of an old, multi-generational building where the residents barely make enough money to sustain their growing family.

(Now the walk-in closet is unaccessible, but I don't mind...
Abby and Keon already had their fun with it.) :)

More kitchen clutter (unfortunately I had to remove the toasts
because they started to stink and my sims kept complaining). XD

Grungy details in the living room.

More grunge.

Even more grunge,

Gardening supplies.

A nice corner in the garden.

And, last but not least, something I'm very proud of: the skylight in the roof! I have never done anything like this before, because I'm a lazy and crappy builder, but I found this amazing tutorial and just had to give it a try. :D

Sorry for the distorted view, it's just to give you an idea of the placement and proportions. :)

Of course I had to "decorate" this part too with cracks and cobwebs,
since I imagine nobody would climb up there regularly
to fix and clean those upper walls. :)
