In the first scene of Episode 2, you’ll learn more about the Holt family and their morning routine. This kitchen was a work in progress for some time as I was never happy with the colors, furniture, etc. to get the look and feel I wanted. The Holts live in an old house that’s in need of repair and don’t have much money, so their house is mainly furnished with thrifted and repurposed items. Use the Bloom tag on my blog for more set pictures :-)
Bloom WIP - Toast and Stacey’s Bedroom (Holt Family Home)
Charlie “Toast” Holt and his girlfriend Stacey share this room with their young daughter, Katelyn. I’m still working to add more decor and clutter, but this was all I got done before my game froze because my computer decided to install updates last night. The Holts don’t have much money so most of their furniture is mix-and-match from what they’ve picked up from thrift stores.
This lot is originally the golf club by @ilikefishfood, and I’ve been making modifications to it for Bloom. I’ve updated the restaurant and patio where a big scene in the next episode of Bloom will take place. It’s been a fun project to do since I had to research what country clubs look like because I’ve never been in one.
One of the newest ventures in my game is trying to successfully run a home business that doesn’t fold in a few days, so I aged up one of my classic sims from the Acceptanceshort film, Graciela, and created a new storyline for her as a first-time homeowner as she starts her own florist business. I’m using @crispsandkerosene‘shome business lot for Graciela and redecorated so that her shop is downstairs and she lives upstairs. She’s just moved in so there’s still some decorating to be done and her shop is still in its humble beginnings.
Perhaps I’ll age up Cameron too and move him in with her. They always ended up together in my mind.
Bloom WIP - Dr. Ames’ Office - August 1997 Happy to share the first decor photos from the re-launch of my series, Bloom. Dr. Wesley Ames is the superintendent of Linton Public Schools. He comes from old money and enjoys displaying his degrees and awards as a reminder of his accomplishments and wealth. Decorating this office made me realize how painfully short I am on professional, office-appropriate wall art., and how much cc I have that’s cluttering the Decorative section and probably needs to be deleted. I won’t say much about Dr. Ames to avoid giving away plot points, but in Episode 2, we’ll learn what was in the envelope he asked Colleen to shred at the end of Episode 1.
