Look at me making something other than default replacements!
I have been wanting to make my own bedding for awhile now and when I saw this bedding by @deedee-sims, it inspired and motivated me to finally make some! I know Deedee's bedding is freezer bunnies but, I got the idea to do some plumbob patterns since you know, both are iconic things within the Sims 😀 So, I give thanks to Deedee for the inspiration and also giving me a working link to CuriousB's Bedding Creation Kit which is what I used to make these.
In total, there are 10 swatches to pick and choose from (7 from colourlovers and 3 from @someone-elsa found here) Also to add, I think the patterns from colourlovers are a little bit pixelated since the images were small but I feel like it is barely noticeable and decided to use them anyways.
Lastly, I wanted to give a big shout out to @moglikes! I got overwhelmed and lost while making this bedding set but Mog answered any questions I had and helped when I ran into issues which happened quite a bit! 😅
Anyways, sorry for the long post! Please enjoy this bedding set and let me know if you run into any problems with it.

Swatches are included in each folder, with D for dominate, and R for recessive on each swatch. Note: I usually only Geneticize by 1(D), and 2( R), only ‘blind eyes’ are 3 ®. Thanks.
I thought I hit the jackpot when I realized that a lot of Anto hairs have the same mapping and there's an ombre accessory for them! Unfortunately, I still needed to edit some of the parts depending on the hair... Ah well.
For the Levitating hair, I used Mystic-hysteria's retexture as a base. And Moyo's lower poly version. Everything is teen-adult only.
6 natural colors + natural or unnatural ends. Meshes and bodyshop swatches are included. Enjoy! :)

I wanted to open a Giftshop in Strangetown and I went with these conversions... and then it spiraled out of control 👽
So here's 27 new Objects ✨ I kept making recolors and adding objects to justify the set, until it grew big and took time. All the crystal objects (including the flowers) are glowy to feel more alien, I added a whole lot of recolors to so many objects... including 55 posters !
The Geode looks really good in game 💎
Litttlecakes' Area 51 set can be found here, and Strange Clutters here. The original Merch Band set can be found here, by Simdertalia. The original Crystal Geode is found here, by fakepikachu. Everything is low poly and basegame compatible. A collection file is included in the download for convenience.
Full object list and extra previews are waiting under the cut ↓
🔭 So I added recolors to the Conspiracy Mugs (6), All 3 Alien Figurines/Plushies (16, in Nyren Kosmik Palette) and the hanging Alien Display T-Shirt (19).
For the I Want To Believe, I added 55 (!) new swatches, where the text is photoshop in Simlish whenever it was possible. 🛸 ✨ I used artworks from this blog, which showcase 70s Scifi and fantasy art and book covers, so there should be no AI. I added a picture in swatch order, if you want to pick and choose.
The Conspiracy Posters uses some of the above artwork, and there are 10 new swatches too.
I did not convert Simdertalia's entire Band Merch set, only the boxes and T-shirts. I mainly wanted the 🌠 Box Rolled Posters, and added recolors (11), but tbh, they are so-so, I'm sorry.
All the Folded T-Shirts are repo'd to Folded T-Shirt 1. All the Boxes are repo'd to Box Rolled Posters.
Then I converted the 🔮 Crystal Geode, and worked really hard with the TXMT to give it that reflective Geode look. It's a bit more intense outside, but it's so pretty, and I'm glad it worked. I added a picture to showcase all the swatches. One of my favourite conversion to date.
You do need a copy of LordCrump’s Shadow Files for the shadows to work though, but I have included a copy in the zip, as always.
That's it. I feel this simple conversion grew and grew over the months, and maybe some of the objects had previously been converted, but I hope I added a little touch more. Happy Simming 😊 🎉

I also just wanted to see if he could use it.. don't blame me if you put some mastiff in there and the duck explodes, okay? this poor duck is rated for small pets only.
it has no shadow (actually neither do my other pet beds oops) and it has no dirty state. In case those are dealbreakers.
the dirty state.. just... it wasn't happening. look at the texture map and you'll see. someone can do it if they want but it won't be me lol. sorry.
anyway this is the Psyduck pet bed by jellypaws. it's functional as you see and it comes in a.. regular Psyduck colour.
7k polys (maybe a little high for what it is? use your own discretion of course. ^^)

hope you enjoy!
I am a long-time Sims enthusiast who loves building houses. I purchased the Sims back in early 2003 but it wasn’t until I discovered that it was possible to build houses that my interest in the game took off. With the release of The Sims 2 I was able to go far beyond the original game in my architectural creativity!I like creating beautiful things, and building pretty houses is very relaxing and soothing.
I like to focus on the good and wholesome-there's enough negativity out there to draw us down. So look for cheery homes built for vibrant, close-knit families, and community lots with small-town charm. The kinds of places where everyone knows your name and where neighbors are always happy to help. ❤
My build style is probably more classic, than sleek and modern, though I do enjoy exploring different styles regularly. I like neutrals, earth tones, and things that evoke a feeling of coziness and relaxation.
One of the other aspects of this game that I really like is the challenge of playing a nearly cc-free game because it forces me to get creative with putting wall textures and furniture items together. Not that I always succeed in this area, but I like mixing familiar colors and textures in ways that keep the game new and fresh.
Since I have quite a busy life outside of the Sims I will probably not update this site often, but it is my hope that you enjoy the bursts of creativity that do happen. :)
PS: Until I can get things put back together here are links to my downloads. You will need to have all EPs and SPs installed for them to work:
Community Lots Folder: SFS | MF
Residential Lots Folder: SFS | MF
Maxis Makeover Lots: SFS | MF
At one point I had the SDHB in some of my lots, but just make sure you run the Lot Cleaner on them and that should squash any unwanted super friendly hugging actions. 😅
I ALWAYS recommend using the Sims 2 Clean Pack installer to install lot files.

Back in May, I released the Medieval Rug-a-Palooza with an edited and expanded set of Simtomatic's Rugs Refinished meshes and a whopping 203 recolours.
And obviously, 203 recolours is no where near enough! So have another 22 Skyrim rugs with textures from Nexus.
The textures generally come in two flavours- with a fringe or without. I had to play around a bit in PS with the fringes, as Skyrim rugs are mapped differently to those in TS2.
These files contain only the RC's. You'll need to grab the meshes from my Medieval Rug-a-Palooza post here.
All files are compressorised, and you can choose to download the files either merged or unmerged. Clearly labelled swatches are included with the files.

Please enjoy, and please let me know if there are any issues with the files.
I love TS2, as you guys know, if you just take a quick look into my blog, not news, anymore. I know some people love the look of TS2 because it's nostalgic, how it reminds them of the childhood they had, which is beautifully perfect when TS2 is a big part of it. trust me, mine too.
but, as a very modern and simple lover, I can't help but think TS2 UI is a bit old (who am I kidding? it is). and I want my game to reflect that up-to-date looks and feels. so, I'm giving you mod recos if you are a modern and simplistic UI lover like moi! enjoy!!

1. Clean UI by @greatcheesecakepersona
oh gosh, THEE pioneer for TS2 modernization. who doesn't know greatcheesecakepersona and their GLORIOUS contribution for TS2 UI modding? back in 2020-2021, the girls were EATING it up. well the girls, the gays, and the theys, and some men, too, we don't leave out people in this house <3. so if you want that modern look to your game, this is a MUST.

2. Starship UI by @simstate
and the little sister to Clean UI, Starship UI by simstate for all of you nyctophile bitches out there. it's essentially if Clean UI has dark mode toggle. perfect for that late night gaming in the dark, but you don't want your eyes to get burned like that fish guy in that one spongebob tanning episode. trust me girl, sometimes, I switch to this UI after hours of playing TS2 with Clean UI, just to let my eyes rest a bit.

3. Neighborhood Menu and Loading Screens for Clean UI by @adinc-sims
when I tell you I'm GAGGED when Alexander dropped several hood menus and loading screens to match the UI? I was for real gagging, hunny. it's. so. purrFECT. I kid you not. truly, no one has ever done neighborhood menu and loading screen like him. at all. and it still boggles me why nobody ever recommending his stuff? they're so good. so grab it fast, because I know you're desperate for that modernization of this masterpiece we called TS2 <3.

4. Colorful Life Neighborhood Menu and Loading Screen for Clean UI by adinc-sims
I know there are some cutesy bitsy luvly simmers out there who LOVE colorful things. hell, even their CAS items is full of cc clothes from @pop-sims and it's evident. so, why not give them some loves by recommending this colorful hood menu and loading screens, complete with the in-game ones? teehee, thank me later after you install it to your lovely game. xoxo.

5. Neon Neighborhood Menu and Loading Screens for Starship UI by adinc-sims
you think I forgot about you, nyctophilic bitches? nah-uh, not ever. you're using Starship UI and your hood menu and loading screens are still as bright as the star of Sirius? no, hunny, I'm not going to let you. THIS is the love I'm going to give you. it has neon elements and using the style of the famous @microscotch. iconic? an understatement. the only downside of this, it's for Legacy Collection. don't worry, you UC users can still use it, but the title of the game on the hood menu will not match the title of your game, that's all. if you can get pass that, then GO GET EM.

6. Sims 4 Style Headline Elements by @noodlebelli
this is the most fabulous default replacement for The Sims 2! well, it is since I think noodlebelli is the only one who made it <\3 but nonetheless, I much appreciate it! this mod is essentially self explanatory. it replaces TS2 headline like increase/decrease relationship point, enthusiasm, university, and badges. it truly makes the game look even more modern!
download: click me!
7. Better Bubbles by @eddysims
again, self explanatory, as it replaces the original thought bubbles with a more HD ones. making the game less pixelated and old, and remastering it further.
download: click me!
8. Talk to Me - A Conversation Icon Replacement Mod by @keoni-chan
when I found this, I was jumping up and down! because it goes well with Better Bubbles by eddysims. It's HD, perfectly replaced the designated topic of the conversation or activities, so the small detail of the matching talking gestures and thought bubble would not be compromised, as it is matched perfectly!

that is all for now! may your game now looking extravagantly stunning <33. Dag dag!
I love this outfit so much! 🖤🖤🖤 I needed to do more swatches, I retextured the shirt in every swatches, white & black and both tights and non tights. And dress is E-neillan's original colors/patterns in every swatches. :)
This one has been in the making a while, so I'm happy to be able to release it (and Tosha looks relieved too! She's been making espresso non-stop for too long, poor gal.)
This is a two-parter:
Default replacement espresso machine
SCS Patisserie counter with slots for deco
Details and download links are under the cut.
Espresso Machine
First, the espresso machine. Object intersection is enabled, so you can put it on top of any counter, including islands, and it will function correctly as I also pulled the routing slots out a little.
The espresso machine and coffee grinder can be recoloured separately. All 7 colours from TS4 Get Together are included. You will need to drop the included CEP your program files, under zCEP-EXTRA. For Ultimate Collection users, this is:
Program Files\Origin Games\The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection\Double Deluxe\Base\TSData\Res\Catalog\zCEP-EXTRA
I reworked the model and textures from TS4, combining the mesh with parts from TS2, to create a fresh look that is still animated correctly.
Patisserie Counter
This is a decorative pastry counter that forms part of the Simple Counter Solution set. The simple counter and BB's niche are required, as both are texture repositories for this item.
It has 5 slots. The right-most one on the top is an end table slot and can be used as such by Sims looking for somewhere to put something down. The rest are decoration slots. Despite taking up two tiles' worth of space, it only has a one-tile footprint to save on GUIDs. It's designed to have the espresso machine on top, so that will stop any walk-through issues.
This replacement conflicts with jonasn's Espresso Machine and Barista Improvements because both modify 'Function - Init'. If you use this mod, please download my patch and have the patch load after both of our files.
