Welcome to my Sims 2 Blog!

This blog is to keep track of all my Sims 2 (TS2) stuffeths. I mostly "build" - houses, apartments, recreational, and community lots - but, I also create walls (and murals), floors, terrain paint, and various other recolors. And I've written a few tutorials too. 😁

All of my items are available through Mod the Sims - MTS2: CatherineTCJD.

Most of my stuff is also posted on Tumblr: A Peacock's Tale.

And I'm slowly adding things to Simblr: CatherineTCJD.

I also have an archive of everything I have made on SFS: CatherineTCJD.

Thank you for visiting!

A Florist's Home and Shop ~ Split-level Home with a Separate Shop

Originally uploaded to MTS on Jan. 20th, 2020.

Here is a nice little home business for your simmies. I built this for my Gavigan Family who wanted to start the new decade off with a fresh start - and what could be fresher than flowers?

After many years of faithful lot testing for me, they've amassed a large enough nest-egg to buy this place outright and still have some savings left to live on until the business blooms (so to speak) The house is completely decorated in an elegant, yet not too fussy manner (at least, I don't think it's fussy - and Isaiah seems to like it well enough!)

The Florist Shop is detached, with it's "front" entrance on the side street. I didn't have any stray customers roaming through the house - but remember to lock up what you want to keep private. There are vending machines, benches and 'cuddle' spots available to help keep customers happy. And, the side-yard has a grill, mini-fridge, and juice bar at the ready in case Mary decides to add a side-line food service to her BP. (Of course you can sell the equipment and do what you want back there...)

Please scroll through the pictures to see everything this house has to offer.

This is a clean copy of this house/lot; no sim has ever lived here. The package has been cleaned with Mootilda's Clean Installer.

Smoke alarms are over the kitchen stove, family room fireplace, and both outdoor grills (one grill is on the back porch, the other is outside the shop). The telephones are on the wall in the kitchen and in the mud room, and one in the shop. There is a burglar alarm by the front door (of the house, NOT in the shop.)

Decorations and furniture are included - I used most all of the game's "Art Nouveau" collection and items from the "Art Nouveaulicious" EA Store Stuff (link below) - feel free to change things around to suite the needs/tastes of your sims.
