You've done an immense job with landscaping and I totally love it, wish I could build like you. I don't think the current fence is fitting the theme, it's more of a traditional one than modern, you know. What about changing it to the black one you used elsewhere (the one in the last picture).
Well, that's your opinion, isn't it? And I'm not about to waste my time trying to change it. - Lady GaGa

Great job, I would only suggest to follow Chronic's Advice and add some dirt paint under the plants ^^

I thought about using that same fence again, but I didn't think it was fitting for a garden. I didn't actually try it though, so I'll replace it and post another picture.

I did use some dirt, but I also used some clover. But I can definitely dirt it up some more , haha.

Edited to add picture: You were right Chronic. I guess I should have just used that fence in the first place!


I will now be uploading it to the Swap Shop. I'll add a link here once I do. Now available here. Car not included.

My new creation. What do you all think? I think the kitchen looks empty, but I'm not sure what to put in it. I'm trying to use only base game and Generations content. Criticism is always welcome.

Outside


Entry/living room


Kitchen


Bedroom


Nursery


Roof grilling area


Yard

Beautiful house Moons!
For the kitchen you could always place small appliances like a blender or microwave.

Placing the overhead cabinets over the counters will also fill the kitchen out a bit.
Gorgeous house, the exterior and yard, and especially the area by the swings are beautiful.


When you live, live with your soul, not with your time.
When you love, love with your heart, not with your mind.
When you want to be something, the world can't define, open up your eyes.

Love the outside looking of the house, and all the rooms, for the kitchen I would suggest also placing small plants on the eating counters they give a good feeling, I would say that using that flooring woudn't be good for the interior, change it into something wooden for a better overall feeling

Alright, I fixed up the kitchen some, and I uploaded this just before I read your comment kiko! :( It's available here though.
