Again, thanks to everyone who voted for me and congrats to the other winners and everyone who participated.

I am open to comments on my build.

@ladybug Your build looked really cute but a little more landscaping would have been nice around the front.

Congratulations to all the winners!   I'm open to comments on my build.   Everyone really did a great job with this and like ladybug said, it was hard to choose.   I love seeing all the differences of interpretation. 

Gogo - I loved your layout a lot.  The deck was amazing! 

Ladybug - I loved the look of the building.  A few more colors within the landscaping may have helped just a little bit but I'm not sure I qualify to give that advice on this build ;D.

I thought I posted earlier, but something seems to have gone wrong.

I enjoyed all of the different entries in this contest. It was fun to see such diversity, and especially nice with a supernatural theme so soon after supernatural came out.

Gogo - I especially liked your pond, its shape gave the illusion of it turning into a small brook trickling off outside of the lot, and that made your fairy forest seem more connected to Moonlight Falls. I also liked the placement of the arbotorium, and the walkway over the pond.The way you placed the trees felt organic. My only constructive criticism would be to maybe use some softer terrain paints to blend the edges of your terrain painting more.

ladybug - I loved the stone circle with the fog. Your photo of the sim telling a ghost story made me want to send my sim there. I like the fact that you have a vegetable garden in a fairy forest, for me though the money trees were a bit much. I liked that you had both a building and a pavilion. And the hedge fence gave the lot a clean neat look.

Ricalynn - I loved your idea of a hidden/secret place for the fairies to meet up. Your pond/waterfall was beautiful. Maybe the trees surrounding it could have been more of different heights/kinds, or placed more in a circle/irregularly ,not in a square like the lot,making it more like a copse of trees?

Gogowars329 -   Love the bridge with the rocking chair. Very nicely done. Your landscaping and use of terrain paints are very nicely 
                         done and I love the effect it gives to your lot.

Chuckles_82 -  I really love your use of terrain paints. It's a very nice effect. I also like  how you used the mushroom and gnomes to from
                        a fairy ring. I just loved your teddy bear picnic. They all look like they're having a great time. Your night scenes are very
                        effective.

Ricalynn -  I love the forest around your lot. The pond and waterfall with the statue is amazing. I just love what you did with the
                 walkway  leading to the  arbotorium.

All entries for this contest were amazing. I think this contest was the most difficult to vote for. Great job everyone !

Chuckles - The mushroom/gnome ring was to cute for words. I really liked how you used reeds, it gave it kind of a wild meadow look which I think worked well with the fairy theme. The tea party was also a nice touch. I would have liked a move overhead view of the lot, so I could picture how it would look placed in the game.

Ricalynn, I love the bridge.  Mainly the pond all together.  Hehe, my build only got one vote, and that one was mine, who knows? Maybe one day I'll get 2 votes! :D  I like them all!  Every contest build that I look at no matter what contest it is looks awesome.
