WE DID IT!! 75 patrons!! Is this real life?!? I want to start by saying how much I appreciate each and every one of you. Genuinely, this is a dream to me! I am an electrical engineer by day and what first got me into the field of engineering was wanting to work for Pixar. Fast forward 10 years and I am designing antennas for a living where I have little ability to express my creative side. Ever since I started making CC last year I really got a spark back in my life I was missing and this is truly my passion. Sometimes I even wish I stuck with my original career path, but alas $75k in student loans will prevent me from switching fields. So this is truly a a dream come true and your support will allow me to offer and create even better CC with less restrictions. Thank you, thank you!

Now onto the set deets! I have already created the six items shown below which include:

  • Shelving Unit (holds the storage items)
  • Classic Storage Bins
  • Cooler (to store food)
  • Toolbox (to store upgrade parts etc)
  • Soil Bags (to store gardening items)
  • Junk Box

None of the items are restricted to what they can hold so you can use the toolbox to store food if you heart desires... but my goal was to make items that would be "in theme" with what would be stored in them. I am going to add five more items to this set and you all get to choose what those are! The items already made aren't the most aesthetically pleasing - my thought was it would be a good set for a utility room/basement/garage. But especially with tiny homes I am sure integrated storage would be much more appealing! Specifically some ideas I have are:

  • Small trinket box
  • Photo box
  • Large trunk (maybe like the Let's Get Trunk or a different style!)
  • Kid's themed storage item (hidden in a stuffed animal toy?)
  • Fruit bowl for the kitchen

But these five new items are up to you! Please let me know any other wants you have or if you really like my suggested ideas. Again, all of the items have the same ability to store any item... up to you if you want to use it to store everything in one item or use them all to categorize your inventory (I am a sucker for organization!). This is your call! I could probably wrap this set up in a day, so as soon as I get feedback I will get to work so you all can have this in your hands!!

Yay!! I'm so excited for you! 😁😁😁 I was thinking maybe instead of the photo box, you could make a photo book or scrapbook type object? That way it could be displayed on a table or a bookshelf. No matter what it all sounds amazing!

ravasheen

Totally doable! Only thing is, the photo album/scrapbook wouldn't be able to display photos of your actual sim. I could do something generic and make it look like a photo album. Would that be okay?

I'd really like for the items to actually look like storage! So like a bowl full of knick knacks, photo box, a toy you can open, stuff like that, where it makes sense to use it as storage.

ravasheen

Got it! What about for the kitchen? I know there are a lot of food inventory items. Maybe it doesn't matter for the kitchen cause you can store them in the fridge?

Bee

Baskets for the kitchen! And maybe some crates that can store harvestables. I loooove me some rustic storage 😍

ravasheen

ohhh i like that idea. what are considered harvestables? like fruits and stuff? i could fill the crate with them to make it look filled

Bee

Yeah the fruits and veggies from the garden! It’s nice to keep them in the fridge but a fruit crate would be so cute. Or even those fruit baskets you can hang from your kitchen ceilings or under cabinets! Somewhere sims can grab an apple “on the go”

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! I'm SOOOOO happy for you!! ❤

Marisa (gfvsims)

Congrats! How about a recipe box? Maybe not quite what you had in mind, but it could be cute. What about a shoe box (lots of people use those for general storage) or a potato/onion bin?

Candle

Yay! Congrats!! You deserve it 💜 You are the best cc for builds/house creator ☺️

Congrats on your milestone! -I’ve joined up just for you. I love the idea of a fruit bowl, but I was also thinking maybe something specifically to hold their art work!? So something that would hold canvases, whether it’s the in game one or something else I’m not fussed.

ravasheen

that means so much to me so thank you!! seriously... i have been like on cloud 9 today. i love this community. it makes my heart so full! thats a great idea!! do you mean the wooden one that has a bunch of canvases in it?

Anonymous

I trust your vision. I was also wondering if you’d given any thought to coming up with a ‘woods’ pallet? Something like Peacemaker’s maybe?

ravasheen

i have one already! i jsut havent really posted it. i have a whole texture library i have been meaning to publish forever... i alwasy just get distracted with sets!! do you want it?

Something doe the kitchen like wicker baskets, or crates for fruits/veggies/flowers. Maybe more cubes? Anything you do will be amazing!

Anonymous

the storage bins are great. will they have color swatches?

ravasheen

my next tsr set is a big cubby add on!! so ill do the cubbies then and add storage capability to them :) crates with veggies are in the list!

ravasheen

they certainly do! any colors you want in particular? your name is familiar... r u from insta/tumblr??

Joi

Yayyyyy!!! Congrats! I'm so happy for you and your accomplishments!! I definitely love the idea of the fruit bowl and a storage system geared towards kids...maybe even convert the storage cubes from your DIY Cubby set for their storage. Congrats again and I can't wait to see what you create!

How about a box filled with holiday decorations? It could be used to hold arts/crafts like the holiday crafts from the kids' activity table. Or it could function as a decorations box (the attic stack from seasons)! It would look really good on the storage shelf!

ravasheen

i actually already redid the holiday storage box!! the attic stack one. i just didnt post it in the set, but it is doneeeee and in more holiday themed colors. ill send a pic next time im in the game. great idea!

I really like the fruit bowl idea and don't like the photo box idea, I want to display my photos or I delete them. But that's just my way of playing :) I would rather need a painting storage. Also, related to the storage but I don't now if it fits here, I would really like shelving that is big enough to hold the jungle adventures artifacts, most are too small, the get famous one only had 2 slots for them and the jungle adventures looks stupid and has too few "big" slots. Keep it up, love your work (sorry, pressed send by accident)

ravasheen

im really just making all of the items lol!! how do you want ur paintings stored?

Anonymous

I'm in game right now and I just saw, my sim has a lot of jungle adventure related stuff in her inventory, because she's an archeologist - maybe some vacation themed storage?

Anonymous

Congrats !! My favorite is the storage bin :)

Anonymous

have you uploaded the links to download yet?

lizblessesurhrt

What about some sort of craft storage bin? I especially have this on my mind as I've had to dig through all my sewing supplies looking for fabrics and notions for mask making. And it would tie in with the knitting set, whenever that happens.

lizblessesurhrt

Ah just saw where you said you've finished and are uploading tonight :) Can't wait! Maybe some other time for crafty things.

I’m wondering whether you have a more current idea of when you’re going to be uploading the set? Obviously you need to be happy with it, and real life comes first, I’m just so excited I’ve been checking the site compulsively since you said it may go up last night...

ravasheen

I am working on the last item as we speak!! I will get it uploaded tonight. I will have to do it on dropbox since sims file share is still locked for uploading new stuff, but once it is back up I will transfer it there.

Evangelina Silvercloud

I love the idea soo much. Your content is amazing. Thank you very much for all your work to make our Sims4 game better and better. Stay safe! Best regards from Austria
