Showcase: Modern Balcony Home (No CC)
I recently built a house called “Modern Balcony Home NoCC” and uploaded it to the Sims4 gallery (my Origin ID: Alex71Blue).
Here are a lot of pics of this house. So if you would like to see how it is looking - dive into this post. Unfortunately, in my game is autumn right now, so don't worry about the sleeping flowers.
The house from the front. The lower level is half sunken. The ground is giving space for windows.
This was my inspiration for this house. I think it came out quite well, with taking into account the limitations of the game, and some artistic freedom :-)
Original floorplan ground level:
Original floorplan upper level:
The house by night:
The garden by night:
Overlooking the complete property from the front:
From the back:
From the right side:
From the left side;
The floorplan of the level downstairs. In the middle there is a bathroom, on the top you can see the little fitness room. On the right side there is the office, and below the teenager’s room. Beside that is a second living area with the TV.
Nearby is the garage, functioning as a storage and crafting room.
The look from above onto the ground floor. The entrance is located in the lower right corner. When you step into the house there is a little wardrobe area. It is followed by the dining table and the kitchen. Beside the kitchen is a terrace with access to the garden. From the main area a little hall leads to the stairs down, as well as the WC and the laundry room. You can also access the garden from there.
Here you can see the upper level. On this floor there is the master bedroom with its onsuite bath and a private balcony with a jacuzzi.
Now we stand in front of the garage and are looking at the entrance:
There is a little porch leading towards the front door:
Here we are in the little wardrobe area just behind the front door. To the left we see the dining table.
Stepping a little bit foreward we are now in the dining & kitchen area. The kitchen is to the left. The sliding doors are leading to the terrace. Beside is the entrance to the living room. The door frame beside the dining table leads to the hall.
The kitchen:
The living room:
The little hall. To the right the door to the WC, to the left the laundry room. The door across offers access to the garden:
Inside the laundry room:
You will find everything you need to clean your washing:
This is the little WC on the ground floor:
Now we went downstairs to the basement level. We are looking towards the stairs, they are at the end of the hallway to the left. In front of us is the entrance to the fitness room, to the left the bath. And the door directly at the the rith side leads into the office.
This is the seconde living room. Here is the TV and music.
Behind the grey wall is the ground floor bathroom located. It is mainly for the teenage kid.
This is the teenager’s (ord kid’s) room. She or he still needs her/his soft toy :-)
Now we are in the office:
The last room on this level is the small fitness room. You can train on the workout station, the treadmill, or do a yoga session.
From the ground we “fly” up to the second floor. From the stairs we can have a look into the garden on the side of the house with the planters:
Now we are in the master bedroom:
With its onsuit bathroom:
The highlight: the private balcony with the jacuzzi:
View from the balcony down to the garden:
Ok, let’s go outside into the garden itself. This is the terrace with entrance to the kitchen and dining area. The skylight windows bring the sun into the livingroom:
At the front there is the barbecue, in the back the pool:
The “infinity pool” with water sprinkler:
The view from the pool area down to the garage:
And vice versa:
And last but not least the inside of the garage with the crafting table,
the trash can and a little sink.
I hope you like my house and would appreciate, when you download it from the Sims 4 gallery, and give it a like. Thank you so much :-)

My description kept changing (and, I lost fee money due to the extra time required of me). But he ended up happy. I do whatever it takes!
He always wants a long description for his website and a short one for his MLS.

DIY Night Sky Mountain Painting (Easy Custom Art)
This night sky painting was so easy and fun to make! Catch the full step-by-step tutorial or take a look at the speed video to see it come to life.
Hey, friends! Hope your weekend went well. Mine was SO ridiculously busy: K and I built a new bed for the master bedroom (plans coming soon). Then, we made significant progress on the Murphy bed in the guest room (Charlotte, I’m comin’ for ya). Finally, Stella got into the garden bed so bad she needed an immediate bath (painted. the tub. with mud.). Oh, and I finished another DIY video, which means I can finally publish this night sky mountain painting today!
Before and After
As you can probably tell, this painting wasn’t originally any of those words. My original was a terribly painted flower vase at one of those “paint and sip”-style events. It was actually a promotional thing a brand put on with a bunch of Atlanta bloggers. It was honestly no different than what you would expect in one of those classes: show up, drink, paint (other than they put it all on their Facebook page; this isn’t a plug and they’re not my sponsor or anything; I just went because free booze and free canvas to take home and I got to see some of my blog friends like Erin Spain).
I know why I paint so poorly in those someone-teaches-you-how-to-paint-a-specific-thing classes. Since this is now the second time I’ve decided to paint my own thing instead, I think I’m just not into it. (It could be the wine. It’s a mystery.) If you’ve ever been fiercely put off by your horrible technique in one of those things, it’s because you’re being forced to paint something you don’t love. So, go rogue! It’s your canvas and to hell with the ugly flowers.
Finding Inspiration
I was inspired — random-est of things — by one of the screensavers displayed by the Amazon Fire TV device connected to the TV. If you aren’t familiar, it’s series of 182 different photos that would give just about anyone some serious wanderlust. And with my vacation to St. Lucia in my rear view and K and I talking about this whole vintage camper renovation project, this photo of The Milky Way over Mt. Hood (Oregon) just struck me. The other screen savers would come and go, and every time this one appeared, I would pause and stare.
So, I typed up a quick tutorial about an organic process that would be unique to every painting (I couldn’t replicate this to the same result every time either). Nothing about a bunch of swirling colors would really be repeatable, but if you want to give it a try, I highly encourage it and would love to see the variations you get! I stopped to take a few of these photos and grabbed a few stills from the video I took overhead.
How to Paint a Starry Sky and Mountains
The trick to a painting like this is pretty straightforward, believe it or not: it just takes continuous layering of colors. I used acrylic paints in the following colors (note: affiliate links to products may be used here):
Supplies
10×10 wood panel
Anita’s Craft Paint (picked up at Hobby Lobby ages ago): Twilight Blue, Medium Blue, Christmas Red (all matte)
Apple Barrel: White, Black, Wild Iris, Purple Iris (all matte)
Small and medium all-purpose paint brushes
Gesso (surface prep medium)
Frogtape Delicate Surface painter’s tape (I know they do a lot of sponsoring on blogs, but this isn’t sponsored)
paper towels
container for clean water
paper plate for mixing
Prep
Start by painting over the entire surface of the existing 10×10 panel with gesso, which is a “medium”. In this context, there are several mediums designed to do cool things with acrylic paint. Some add a crackling effect, some help paint adhere to fabric… this one is basically a thin version of white acrylic paint and simply helps prep the surface for adding more paint on top, like a primer.
I then did a quick pencil sketch to mark the sky, mountain, trees, and water on the bottom. A few general shapes are all that’s needed to get started.
Color Blocking
As you’ll see in the speed video, I started with the sky first — blocking off color areas such as black in the top corners and white in certain areas on either side of the mountain. This was somewhat monochromatic at first, but I also kept adding in blue and red. To layer in the paint, I also used a damp paper towel to help “sponge” in some of the texture and help layer in paint colors.
With most of the general color blocking done, I moved on to the tree line in black, and then the single mountain in the center — which pretty much exclusively has layers of black, white, and a small hint of blue. Since the sky would be the focus of my painting, I wanted to make the mountain highlighted but muted (so as not to compete).
The whole non-compete idea carried through in the rest of the painting. I marked off the mountains and created quick swipes with a small paint brush to give the trees texture (black only). For the water below, I painted large swipes of blue with white and black. Watering down the paint makes it look really streaky.
As the mountain dried, I added in more black and white areas for highlight and shadow.
After the first night (I did all of this while sitting in front of the TV), it looked like this:
This is a great stopping point, since acrylic sometimes needs some dry time when you begin to add water. Wiping off paint after it starts to dry might remove large blobs of paint (it happened to me a couple of times). General rule of thumb: do not mix more than 30% of water or use an acrylic medium to thin the paint instead; I’ll admit to using just water on this one, but you now know better!
More Color Layering
The next night after some sufficient drying, I added in more color to the sky area with the same swiping, sponging pattern: more blue, more purple, more white.
The photo below is after it had more time to dry and I added a second black layer of the trees.
Tape and Stars!
Once you’re done with this part and are happy with the sky’s color variation, let it dry COMPLETELY.
The canvas is now freshly painted, so protect the bottom area with painter’s tape meant for delicate surfaces. Tape anything that isn’t the sky.
Then, I used a VERY dry brush to dab just a little pure white paint onto the tip. With each flick little tiny spots flung all over the sky surface. I varied both with the quantity of paint on my brush and with how close to the canvas I got, so there were little clusters of white paint flecks and bigger flecks all randomly dispersed. This is the magic that makes it look like a starry sky, and my favorite part! If you make a mistake, use a tiny dab from a wet paper towel to take the paint back up. Do it quickly and don’t rub… it could still disturb the newly dried paint below.
In areas I wanted to emphasize a little more, I went in by hand and added a couple more stars.
With that done, I pulled all the painter’s tape off and my painting was complete. I plan to seal it with some art resin and frame (new posts!), but I’m really pleased with how it turned out. It will probably eventually hang in the vintage camper.
K immediately loved this painting. He’s offered to scan it at work for me, so I will have that available as a print soon as well!

If you aren't familiar, it's series of 182 different photos that would give just about anyone some serious wanderlust. And with my vacation to St. Lucia in my rear view and K and I talking about this whole vintage camper renovation project, this photo of The Milky Way over Mt. Hood (Oregon) just struck me. The other screen savers would come and go, and every time this one appeared, I would pause and stare.
So, I typed up a quick tutorial about an organic process that would be unique to every painting (I couldn't replicate this to the same result every time either). Nothing about a bunch of swirling colors would really be repeatable, but if you want to give it a try, I highly encourage it and would love to see the variations you get! I stopped to take a few of these photos and grabbed a few stills from the video I took overhead.
How to Paint a Starry Sky and Mountains
The trick to a painting like this is pretty straightforward, believe it or not: it just takes continuous layering of colors. I used acrylic paints in the following colors (note: affiliate links to products may be used here):
Supplies
10×10 wood panel
Anita's Craft Paint (picked up at Hobby Lobby ages ago): Twilight Blue, Medium Blue, Christmas Red (all matte)
Apple Barrel: White, Black, Wild Iris, Purple Iris (all matte)
Small and medium all-purpose paint brushes
Gesso (surface prep medium)
Frogtape Delicate Surface painter's tape (I know they do a lot of sponsoring on blogs, but this isn't sponsored)
paper towels
container for clean water
paper plate for mixing
Prep
I started by painting over the entire surface of the existing 10×10 panel with gesso, which is a “medium” (in general, “medium” can be used for just about anything that is used to create art, but in this context, there are several specifically designed to do cool things with acrylic paint - some add a crackling effect, some help paint adhere to fabric… this one is basically a thin version of white acrylic paint and simply helps prep the surface for adding more paint on top, like a primer).
Then, I did a quick pencil sketch to mark what would be sky vs. mountain vs. the black trees vs the water on the bottom… just a few general shapes to get me started.
Color Blocking
As you'll see in the speed video, I started with the sky first - blocking off color areas such as black in the top corners and white in certain areas on either side of the mountain. This was somewhat monochromatic at first, but I also kept adding in blue and red. To layer in the paint, I also used a damp paper towel to help “sponge” in some of the texture and help layer in paint colors.
With most of the general color blocking done, I moved on to the tree line in black, and then the single mountain in the center - which pretty much exclusively has layers of black, white, and a small hint of blue. Since the sky would be the focus of my painting, I wanted to make the mountain highlighted but muted (so as not to compete).
The whole non-compete idea carried through in the rest of the painting, marking off the mountains and creating quick swipes with a small paint brush to get the trees to look like they had some texture (black only). For the water below, I painted large swipes of blue with white and black and kept watering down the paint so it would look really streaky.
As the mountain dried, I added in more black and white areas for highlight and shadow.
After the first night (I did all of this while sitting in front of the TV, winding down from other DIY activities), it looked like this:
This is a great stopping point, since acrylic sometimes needs some dry time when you begin to add water. Adding more paint or sponging after it starts to dry might remove patches of paint (it happened to me a couple of times). General rule of thumb for what's recommended is to not mix more than 30% of water or use an acrylic medium to thin the paint instead, but I'll admit to using just water on this one.
More Color Layering
The next night after some sufficient drying, I added in more color to the sky area with the same swiping, sponging pattern: more blue, more purple, more white.
The photo below is after it had more time to dry and I added a second black layer of the trees.
Once you're done with this part and are happy with the sky's color variation, it really needs to dry COMPLETELY. Because next, you'll be adding painter's tape!
Tape and Stars!
I taped off the entire bottom area with painter's tape meant for delicate surfaces (since the canvas was so freshly painted) - anything that wasn't the sky.
Then, I used a VERY dry brush to dab just a little pure white paint onto the tip of the brush and flick the paint all over the sky surface. I varied both with the quantity of paint on my brush and with how close to the canvas I got, so there were little clusters of white paint flecks and bigger flecks all randomly dispersed. This is the magic that makes it look like a starry sky, and my favorite part. If you make a mistake, use a tiny dab from a wet paper towel to take the paint back up (do it quickly and don't rub… it could still disturb the newly dried paint below).
In areas I wanted to emphasize a little more, I went in by hand and added a couple more stars.
With that done, I pulled all the painter's tape off and my painting was complete. I still need to seal it with some art resin (coming up in a new post) and frame (also another post), but I'm pleased with how it turned out. It will probably eventually hang in the vintage camper. K immediately loved this painting and offered to scan it at work for me, so I will have that available as a print soon as well!

DIY Night Sky Mountain Painting (Easy Custom Art)
This night sky painting was so easy and fun to make! Catch the full step-by-step tutorial or take a look at the speed video to see it come to life.
Hey, friends! Hope your weekend went well. Mine was SO ridiculously busy: K and I built a new bed for the master bedroom (plans coming soon). Then, we made significant progress on the Murphy bed in the guest room (Charlotte, I’m comin’ for ya). Finally, Stella got into the garden bed so bad she needed an immediate bath (painted. the tub. with mud.). Oh, and I finished another DIY video, which means I can finally publish this night sky mountain painting today!
Before and After
As you can probably tell, this painting wasn’t originally any of those words. My original was a terribly painted flower vase at one of those “paint and sip”-style events. It was actually a promotional thing a brand put on with a bunch of Atlanta bloggers. It was honestly no different than what you would expect in one of those classes: show up, drink, paint (other than they put it all on their Facebook page; this isn’t a plug and they’re not my sponsor or anything; I just went because free booze and free canvas to take home and I got to see some of my blog friends like Erin Spain).
I know why I paint so poorly in those someone-teaches-you-how-to-paint-a-specific-thing classes. Since this is now the second time I’ve decided to paint my own thing instead, I think I’m just not into it. (It could be the wine. It’s a mystery.) If you’ve ever been fiercely put off by your horrible technique in one of those things, it’s because you’re being forced to paint something you don’t love. So, go rogue! It’s your canvas and to hell with the ugly flowers.
Finding Inspiration
I was inspired — random-est of things — by one of the screensavers displayed by the Amazon Fire TV device connected to the TV. If you aren’t familiar, it’s series of 182 different photos that would give just about anyone some serious wanderlust.

K immediately loved this painting. He’s offered to scan it at work for me, so I will have that available as a print soon as well!

DIY Night Sky Mountain Painting (Easy Custom Art)
This night sky painting was so easy and fun to make! Catch the full step by step tutorial or take a look at the speed video to see it come to life.
Hey, friends! Hope your weekend went well. Mine was SO ridiculously busy: K and I built a new bed for the master bedroom (plans coming soon). Then, we made significant progress on the Murphy bed in the guest room (Charlotte, I’m comin’ for ya). Finally, Stella got into the garden bed so bad she needed an immediate bath (painted. the tub. with mud.). Oh, and I finished another DIY video, which means I can finally publish this night sky mountain painting today!
Before and After
As you can probably tell, this painting wasn’t originally any of those words. My original was a terribly painted flower vase at one of those “paint and sip”-style events. It was actually a promotional thing a brand put on with a bunch of Atlanta bloggers, but it was honestly no different than what you would expect in one of those classes: show up, drink, paint (other than they put it all on their Facebook page — and this isn’t a plug and they’re not my sponsor or anything; I just went because free booze and free canvas to take home and I got to see some of my blog friends like Erin Spain).
I don’t know what it is about me that makes me paint so poorly in those someone-teaches-you-how-to-paint-a-specific-thing classes, but since this is now the second time I’ve decided to paint my own thing instead, I think I’m just not into it. (It could be the wine. It’s a mystery.) But if you’ve ever been fiercely put off by your horrible technique in one of those things, then my argument is this: it’s because you’re being forced to paint something you don’t love. So, go rogue! It’s your canvas and to hell with the ugly flowers.
Finding Inspiration
I was inspired — random-est of things — by one of the screensavers displayed by the Amazon Fire TV device connected to the TV. If you aren’t familiar, it’s series of 182 different photos that would give just about anyone some serious wanderlust. And with my vacation to St. Lucia in my rear view and K and I talking about this whole vintage camper renovation project, this photo of The Milky Way over Mt. Hood (Oregon) just struck me. The other screen savers would come and go, and every time this one appeared, I would pause and stare.
So, I typed up a quick tutorial about an organic process that would be unique to every painting (I couldn’t replicate this to the same result every time either). Nothing about a bunch of swirling colors would really be repeatable, but if you want to give it a try, I highly encourage it and would love to see the variations you get! I stopped to take a few of these photos and grabbed a few stills from the video I took overhead.
How to Paint a Starry Sky and Mountains
The trick to a painting like this is pretty straightforward, believe it or not: it just takes continuous layering of colors. I used acrylic paints in the following colors (note: affiliate links to products may be used here):
Supplies
10×10 wood panel
Anita’s Craft Paint (picked up at Hobby Lobby ages ago): Twilight Blue, Medium Blue, Christmas Red (all matte)
Apple Barrel: White, Black, Wild Iris, Purple Iris (all matte)
Small and medium all-purpose paint brushes
Gesso (surface prep medium)
Frogtape Delicate Surface painter’s tape (I know they do a lot of sponsoring on blogs, but this isn’t sponsored)
paper towels
container for clean water
paper plate for mixing
Prep
I started by painting over the entire surface of the existing 10×10 panel with gesso, which is a “medium” (in general, “medium” can be used for just about anything that is used to create art, but in this context, there are several specifically designed to do cool things with acrylic paint — some add a crackling effect, some help paint adhere to fabric… this one is basically a thin version of white acrylic paint and simply helps prep the surface for adding more paint on top, like a primer).
Then, I did a quick pencil sketch to mark what would be sky vs. mountain vs. the black trees vs the water on the bottom… just a few general shapes to get me started.
Color Blocking
As you’ll see in the speed video, I started with the sky first — blocking off color areas such as black in the top corners and white in certain areas on either side of the mountain. This was somewhat monochromatic at first, but I also kept adding in blue and red. To layer in the paint, I also used a damp paper towel to help “sponge” in some of the texture and help layer in paint colors.
With most of the general color blocking done, I moved on to the tree line in black, and then the single mountain in the center — which pretty much exclusively has layers of black, white, and a small hint of blue. Since the sky would be the focus of my painting, I wanted to make the mountain highlighted but muted (so as not to compete).
The whole non-compete idea carried through in the rest of the painting, marking off the mountains and creating quick swipes with a small paint brush to get the trees to look like they had some texture (black only). For the water below, I painted large swipes of blue with white and black and kept watering down the paint so it would look really streaky.
As the mountain dried, I added in more black and white areas for highlight and shadow.
After the first night (I did all of this while sitting in front of the TV, winding down from other DIY activities), it looked like this:
This is a great stopping point, since acrylic sometimes needs some dry time when you begin to add water. Adding more paint or sponging after it starts to dry might remove patches of paint (it happened to me a couple of times). General rule of thumb for what’s recommended is to not mix more than 30% of water or use an acrylic medium to thin the paint instead, but I’ll admit to using just water on this one.
More Color Layering
The next night after some sufficient drying, I added in more color to the sky area with the same swiping, sponging pattern: more blue, more purple, more white.
The photo below is after it had more time to dry and I added a second black layer of the trees.
Once you’re done with this part and are happy with the sky’s color variation, it really needs to dry COMPLETELY. Because next, you’ll be adding painter’s tape!
Tape and Stars!
I taped off the entire bottom area with painter’s tape meant for delicate surfaces (since the canvas was so freshly painted) — anything that wasn’t the sky.
Then, I used a VERY dry brush to dab just a little pure white paint onto the tip of the brush and flick the paint all over the sky surface. I varied both with the quantity of paint on my brush and with how close to the canvas I got, so there were little clusters of white paint flecks and bigger flecks all randomly dispersed. This is the magic that makes it look like a starry sky, and my favorite part. If you make a mistake, use a tiny dab from a wet paper towel to take the paint back up (do it quickly and don’t rub… it could still disturb the newly dried paint below).
In areas I wanted to emphasize a little more, I went in by hand and added a couple more stars.
With that done, I pulled all the painter’s tape off and my painting was complete. I still need to seal it with some art resin (coming up in a new post) and frame (also another post), but I’m pleased with how it turned out. It will probably eventually hang in the vintage camper. K immediately loved this painting and offered to scan it at work for me, so I will have that available as a print soon as well!
