Let’s Take A Look At The New Nature Press!
The Nature Press seems to have been pushed to the sidelines during the release of The Sims 4 Enchanted by Nature, and sure, it’s not the main focus of the pack, but it does bring an extensive new hobby to the game! First revealed in the Build-Buy trailer for Enchanted by Nature, the nature press allows Sims to take flowers, herbs, and vegetables and press them to create new decorative items. Let’s take a look at everything you can create!

Making Prints and Candles
To make Prints or Candles you must first purchase the Nature Press from the Build-Buy Catalogue. You can place the Nature Press either on the floor or at a table/desk and get to work!
Once placed the Nature Press has a number of options. Before crafting you will need some ingredients, and luckily you can purchase them straight from the Nature Press by clicking ‘Purchase Ingredients…’.
You can also put the Nature Press in your inventory incase you want to take your hobby to the park, the wilderness, to work, or on vacation to Granite Falls.
With the Life & Death Expansion Pack installed the object, like many others, is heirloom eligable.
Once you have the required ingredients, your Sim is ready to begin their new hobby of making pressings of their findings. The new Natural Living skill and foraging can be especially useful as you can forage for ingredients.
Enchanted prints and candles can be created by the addition of 1 pile of Fairy Dust. Enchanted items can emit emotional auras, and can sway a Sims mood when viewed. Non-Fairy Sims can create enchanted items, however only Fairies will reap the reward; a boost in their Fairy experienece level! When sold, enchanted items created with the Nature Press will be worth more than non-enchanted items.
Business Opportunities
Unfortunatley the Nature Press isn’t featured among the new Business Activities for those with The Sims 4 Businesses & Hobbies, however that does not mean you can’t make a quick buck from your latest creations.
If you own The Sims 4 Nifty Knitting your Sim can list the crafted prints or candles on Plopsy, much like Knitted items, Cross-stitch items, and more.
Players with any packs that include a selling table (City Living, Jungle Adventure, Eco Lifestyle, Home Chef Hustle, Crystal Creations, Businesses & Hobbies) can stock their tables with Nature Press candles and mark them up to make a profit. You can also set them for sale in Retail Stores from Get To Work, or Small Business Lots from Businesses & Hobbies.
