Our Thoughts On Grandma’s Kitchen Heirlooms
This is a really cute decor set with loads of lovely items, and all of them would not look out of place in any real grandma’s kitchen. Realistic touches like a used teabag and spoon on a plate and plates of buttered toast are going to make any Sim’s home feel alive.
The swatches match reasonably well across all items, and the food decor looks good enough to eat.
Overall this is a lovely decor kit and one which will be getting a lot of use in my builds.
European Home Power Set by SixamCC
One of the more controversial maker kits offered, and, according to our marketplace poll, one of the least popular, SixamCC’s European Home Power Set has a selection of sockets and switches to make walls feel less bare and add a bit of realism to builds.
What’s included?
Below you can see each socket and switch in more detail. Every item comes in ten identical swatches, making these easy to mix and match.

Our Thoughts On European Home Power Set
This is a smaller editon the marketplace, and if you have never dived into the world of custom content this is more than likely not going to be the first things you download or purchase.
However, these are the kind of small touches that make builds more realistic and feel more like a lived-in home. Plus, the fact that all of the swatches are identical across the items means its much easier to mix and match.
Whether it deserves the price tag of 200 Moola is another discussion.
