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!

I love Thai food - and the country's culture; but I don't have an ounce of Thai blood in me. I also appreciate fine architecture, which is what drew me to this floor plan. I believe the plan was designed by BodinChapa Architects.

Pfft! Forget the above... turns out it is a Russian design. (Thank you Vic!)

The RL house, built in 1979, is not in LA, but in Simi Valley, California, at 4267 Roxbury Street. It was chosen for the film because it looked like a typical suburban home. It has since been turned into a vacation rental. Book your stay here: Poltergeist House.
