The Sims Team wishes you a happy Valentine’s Day! Video down below contains footage from The Sims 4 Romantic Garden Stuff.
A Vardo, also known as a living-wagon is a horse-drawn portable home which was used around the mid 1800s. With it’s highly decorated exterior and fun design, it makes the perfect home for the more artistic sim who loves the outdoors and bright colors! (Most of the items used in this particular Vardo are from Get Together and Movie Stuff Pack)
Start by making a floating rectangle one floor above ground floor. I made mine diagonal, but you can of course choose that yourself
Get together have a decoration item called vacker sot floral cart, resize it (SHIFT+]) about four times, and place under your majestically floating rectangle:
Then add a gabled roof, pull the adjustment blobs until it becomes as rounded as it gets, and drag the roof tip arrows as far up or down as you want them:
Add a one square patio around the “majestic-rectangle-sitting-on-a-floral-cart-with-a-super-round-roof-on-it” like so:
Add a hip door in the center of the building (preferably with flowers on it), like so:
Do you see the white line up in the left corner of your game? No? Press CTRL-SHIFT-C, and you definitely will! And then you type in: bb.showhiddenobjects
Then go to the little search menu down left, and search for DEBUG, you’ll be taken to a page filled with wonderful little items that I personally can’t live without. Anyways, pick a fishing sign, any fishing sign, and place it down. Then another one, but resize it once. Then another one but resize it twice. Then another one but….You get the picture! Have it look something like this:
The go to surfaces>displays and pick the Immaculate:
Resize it once and place it on the ground in front of the first sign, then pick another one and raise it (CTRL+9) so it “rests” on the first fishing sign. Do so on every sign, and bam, you have some I-can’t-believe-it’s-not-stairs stairs!
Then put in some real stairs in the back:
Paint the wagon, add windows, and lot’s of colorful decorations and flowers! Don’t forget a rug and maybe some hippie-looking curtains!
Here’s what I did:
The Movie Pack has a tree with lights in it, but it’s not that cool that all the trees look similar. So, I made my own! Raise lights under a tree, and check from different angles that it looks like it’s hanging from the tree and not the air, like so:
A bonfire and flower decorations from Get Together and some funky Movie Pack chairs makes the garden look like the perfect place to spend long nights talking about how many llamas you’ve saved this year!
Here’s an example on what I did for some of the interior design. Messy, clunky, clumsy and ridiculously colorful! (Also, the kitchen is outside in the back. why not?)

Make a Wish
With the release of The Sims 4 Romantic Garden Stuff*, Sims have access to the Whispering Wishing Well, which will alter the fate of your Sim’s lives forever should you dare approach it. Sims can choose from nine different things to wish for, including happiness, romance, youth, simoleons, and more. Be careful what you wish for; those wishes lead to over 50 different outcomes based on the temperament of the well (yes, it’s sentient, and it’s known to be quite moody).
Here are some of our favorite sequences of events…
Sims can get a bad romance. Happily, a wish for romance can result in the appearance of a perfect partner with a loving relationship already established. But what happens when wishing for romance when the Whispering Wishing Well is in a foul mood? Well, you may just end up with a new enemy… with benefits. Through a swirling grey and pink puff of smoke emerges a new romantic partner, who your Sim finds completely contemptable but inexplicably attractive. Sparks will definitely fly in this torrid love affair that offers the chance to experience one of the rarest relationship types in the game!
Simoleons can come at a cost. If your Sim’s wildest dreams come true, they may just win the lottery and get showered by simoleons spewing from the well’s maw. However, at times the Whispering Wishing Well enjoys toying with Sim’s whims, and may twist their words against them unexpectedly. One such example is when a Sim wishes for simoleons… instead of simply granting the wish, the well instead presents the Sim with an interesting moral dilemma. It offers up a juicy morsel of gossip, a rumor so vile that if you threatened another Sim with exposing this secret they’d surely pay to ensure your silence. Is blackmailing your way to riches with a trail of enemies in your wake a path you’ll choose to take? This new interaction leaves the choice in your control.
Sims can get a bouncing bundle of BOO! A Sim that’s a prospective parent may use the Whispering Wishing Well to wish for a child in their life, and the well has a number of ways to grant that request. In the perfect scenario, a mini-prodigy pops out of the well equipped with the Genius trait and a zest for life. If the well is feeling particularly grim though, a bile may bubble up and out of its depths, revealing the newest addition to the family… a ghost child! Thankfully the Whispering Wishing Well will listen to a special wish from ghosts as well, which may lead to the following…
Ghostly Sims can be given endless life. A ghost Sim may have been dealt a difficult card in life (or the afterlife), but the Whispering Wishing Well can help. Ghosts can wish for life, and if the well is in an especially generous mood, the ghost Sim may be granted the ultimate reward – a return to the living! Not only will this miraculous revival give the Sim a second chance at life, but a pact will be formed with the Grim Reaper allowing them to escape death in the future. Should they happen to die again from unnatural causes, the Reaper will promptly appear to resurrect them on the spot.
Sims can find happiness to be a curse. The Whispering Wishing Well is known for its perverse sense of humor. There’s perhaps no better example than one particularly delicious case of schadenfreude when the well perceives a Sim as greedily wishing for happiness. One potential outcome sees the Sim lifted off their feet, with the well visibly sucking an aura of happiness out of them, and raining it down into the depths of the well. For the near future the Sim is cursed, with happiness seeping out of them and spreading to other Sims. As those nearby Sims become happier, the cursed Sim sinks further into their malaise. This form of cosmic balance amuses the Whispering Wishing Well. Of course this is only one potential (and drastic) outcome. Not only may your Sim end up walking on sunshine with a very happy moodlet, but all of their happy moodlets will persist even longer than normal for the day!
Experience these moments with your own Sims, and discover so many more when playing with the Whispering Wishing Well (and other fun stuff) in The Sims 4 Romantic Garden Stuff today!

This is a collection of some of the most inspirational quotes posted by members of Sims Community Social for The Sims’ 16th Anniversary, answering the question:”What does The Sims mean to you?”. You can create your own Theme Pack so that the Wallpapers shift from time to time. You can do so by extracting the .zip file, selecting all the wallpaper image files, right click and ”Set as desktop background”.
Mod Description: Removes the alien, ghost, bear, knight bar theme nights and replaces them with happy hours. I changed the spawning Sims into party goers who should be in their party wear (low priority so they may not change). Your Sims should also not get any invites to those theme nights since I altered those files as well and the nights no longer exist.
Conflicts: I’ve tested this mod both without any mods/CC installed and with all my mods/CC installed and there wasn’t any problems or LastException file generated. So, no conflicts. It may conflict with any mods that changes bars or the theme nights.
Instructions: Unzip and pop the package into your mods folder. Enjoy having your Sims get their weekday happy hours back!
You know how children Sims can gain adult skills after maxing out the Social, Creativity and Mental skills? But they can’t do anything with the Motor Skill? I always found that to be very annoying. But now, children Sims that max out the Motor skill to level 10 can start gaining the Fitness skill!
Notes: It does not change their weight, and only works in pools or on the monkey bars. They will still get the normal Fitness notifications as if they were teens or up, but they cannot use the fitness machines (because that’d just be weird).
This mod will NOT conflict with the faster skills mod over at MTS.
Also, this mod is Base Game compatible!
Mod Description: Swimming laps increases hygiene and fun.
Conflicts: Tested with all my mods/CC installed and no conflicts. It may conflict with any mods that alters swimming.
Instructions: Your Sims needs to swim laps. That is the way this mod is created.
This mod disables autonomous swimming, because the obsession with the pool is uncool!
Sims will now only go swimming if you tell them to. You have to click the pool, not just say “go swimming”, because trust me, they will not listen.
This mod is compatible with Tatiana’s Swimming gains hygiene and fun mod because they alter different resources.
Base game compatible on patch 1.14!
This mod will allow your Sims to meet new Sims and gain work/school performance faster when using the socialize option while they are away. You can now meet up to 5 Sims in one work/school day per Sim! And your Sim will gain work/school performance 2.5x faster while meeting Sims at work/school.
This mod does not affect the Get to Work EP careers. Only the ones where you do not follow your Sim to work will it affect them. 
This mod is base game compatible!
Mod Description: Bans children and teens from the clubs and lounges. Also decreases the percentage of elders in lounges which means less elders being spawned.
Conflicts: Tested with all my mods/CC installed and no conflicts. It may conflict with any mods that alters clubs and lounges.
Instructions: If you have Get Together, check the meeting location for the children’s clubs. Some of them are set to night clubs (SHEESH!!!) and you will need to change that if you don’t want them in your night clubs.
Mod Description: Slows down the rate of motive decay, you Sims will still get hungry, tired, etc but at a much slower pace.
Conflicts: Tested with all my mods/CC installed and no conflicts. It may conflict with any mods that alters motive decay.
Instructions: None, works fine with the steel bladder reward.
