1830s wedding/ball gown
Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays!Here's a little unexpected (even for me ^^) festive gift for you all :). I looked at the inspo photo and suddenly felt like that dress could be very easily done if I altered my 1830 mourning dress here and there - and I was right! From funerals through balls to wed...
1850's 'Maggie' skirt recoloured in Sokea's plaids
Hi everyone!Every time after publishing something I think 'ok, that's enough Sims for this month', and yet I can't stop making new stuff ^^.It's a simple recolour of my yesterday's Maggie skirt. As mentioned, the skirt should be recolours-friendly, but that applies rather to ...
1850s 'Maggie' skirt
Happy belated birthday @simstomaggie!!!So! I know I said I probably won't make any 1850s/1860s pieces, but yesterday I learned that my friend and fellow simmer Maggie just had her birthday, so I spontaneously decided to finally make her a mid-Victorian skirt for which she'd been asking me fo...
Victorian robes for teeny tots
Hi everyone!This outfit was supposed to be a baby. Yep, you read that correctly. The queen of medieval conversions @simverses once figured out how one could replace the in-game baby mesh with a new one and asked me if I could make some clothes for it. And so I did - but when our Victorian baby was a...
4000+ followers gift: 1890s wedding gowns
Hello everyone, I'm finally back! Well, sort of.Today I bring you something special: two 1890s wedding gowns, based on designs from, respectively, 1890 and 1894. Originally it was supposed to be a set of three dresses, but with everything going on in my life right now I can't see myself fini...
(Not so) short announcement
Hello everyone,I've been sharing some news regarding my health and its influence on all my TS4-related activities on tumblr in the past weeks, but I completely forgot that some of you might be following me only here and that info might not reach you unless I write a post on patreon as well. So s...
1830 mourning dress (Simblreen 2020 treat #2)
Hi everyone!Here comes my second Simblreen treat and at the same time my first 1830s creation: an 1830 mourning dress. Yes, I know that the inspo picture clearly calls it a ‘walking dress‘, but the one I found especially for mourning looks almost exactly the same - and I decided to make this one...
Slavic Balvans (Simblreen 2020 treat #1)
Hello everyone!It's finally the time to share publicly the first of my Simblreen treats.It’s a small collection of statues of different Slavic (= pagan) deities. All of the meshes come from Sketchfab: 4 were made by a user named Iliadus and one (Veles) by 3dhdscan. I lowered the polycount to m...
1841 ball gown
Some time ago (two weeks? Three? Is time even real?) I received an ask if I could make an 1840s ball gown - and as I'm slowly but steadily falling in love with this decade (so little crazy deco! Such simple patterns!), I decided to really do it. Yes, it's the same skirt again, I warned you :...
Fixing arms' position (tutorial)
WARNING: This mini-tutorial is to be considered experimental. In contrary to my main tutorial series, in this case I don’t understand the bigger picture and all the connections between different options. Still, I think it’s worth writing, as when I was struggling with it myself I found close to ...
1843 casual day dress
Hi everyone!I found a cute design of another 1840s dress (accidentally also from 1843) and thought it looks so simple that it should be easy to squeeze it somewhere in between other projects. Some fighting was needed after all, so it wasn't as much of a 'small side project' as I had anti...
Red Slavic Wooden Beads revamped
Good evening everyone!Here comes a remade version of the Slavic red beads which I originally published over a year ago. I adjusted the placement of the beads, so that they wouldn't clip with my Cuiavian winter outfit anymore, properly weight painted the 'Triple' and 'Lush' versio...
HUGE cc update
Hello everyone!As mentioned a couple of days ago, I bulk-updated my cc for adult female sims. I mean everything you can see when you go to my downloads page and choose‘adult female’ on the left. Yes, everything. Hats and accessories too. I added update notes to all the pieces, so you can check f...
Bavarian and Thuringian Folk outfits for Women
Hello everyone!Most of you probably don't know it, but today Germany celebrates a national holiday, commemorating the fact that on 03.10.1990, after decades of split into East and West, it once again became one country. And so I thought: when could be a better time to finally make that dirndl my...
October 2020 roadmap
Hi everyone!September is slowly coming to an end and probably you've realised that it wasn't my most productive month ever. The main reason for this is that I tried to concentrate on writing my tutorial, and while I'd say I was successful in it - published 3 new parts! - it took lots of ...
Early Medieval Be(a)rserker Hat / Headpiece
04.10.2020 edit: updated with new CAS placementLet me explain ^^.I've been thinking lately of starting some kind of 'Crusader Kings controls my Sims' save and even made some preparations for this: I hoarded tons of medieval CC, built some stuff and played CK2 while taking tons of screens...
Baltic paintings collection (1890-1918)
Hi everyone!A couple of days ago I watched a cool documentary about late XIX / early XX century painters from modern day Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia, and immediately thought it'd be great to have all those beautiful pictures in The Sims. It took me some time (recolouring is easy, but sooooo bo...

1840s dress for toddlers
Hi everyone!Lately I was working a bit on my decades challenge - more specifically, on my og sims and their background. I created extensive family trees for both of them, invented a whole bunch of new characters and in general was proceeding really well, but when I wanted to finally make those ances...

1893 outfit + hat for boys
Hi everyone!I felt like creating more day dresses for my sim ladies and somehow ended up making an outfit for boys. Don't ask. I blame it all on that vaguely Chinese hat - I've already seen something very similar once and almost made it back then, so when I spotted it in yet another fashion ...
1894 coats for toddler boys (conversion)
Vintage Winterwear Collection pt. 16Hi everyone!I got a bit bored with all the swimsuits (plus all of a sudden I feel a strong need to proceed with my save, and it's still winter there...), so I decided to finally convert two of my winter coats for boys into coats for toddlers. Come in the same ...
1884 bathing suit for girls
Vintage Summer collection pt. 4Hi everyone!Remember my last piece? I converted it for children and edited a bit, so that it'd be more accurate. It seems that bathing suits for children always had shorter sleeves than the ones for adults: when adults wore long sleeves, children wore short, when a...

Cuiavian male outfit converted for boys
Hi everyone!And another folk piece - this time my AM outfit converted for boys. Converted and improved: the textures look way less cartoonish, there's zero clipping and the scarf, in contrary to the adult version, does not become a hot mess when the sim sits down. Looks like now I'll have to...
