i tried building a house with cottage living... 

I can’t wait until I can use this pack with city living to play out my “country kid grows up and moves to the big city” story

lilsimsie when choosing her wording: "similar" ❌ "same-y"✅

When Simsie says she “tried” to build a house in the sims we already know it’s going to be amazing

You know you're sims trash when you see kayla's sweater and immediately think "omg it's the sweater from the university pack"

this house has the vibes of like a kid living with their grandma and helping her on her farm and stuff

Kayla should build a house based on Miss Honey’s cottage, from Matilda.

This turned out SO CUTE 🥺 the little mushrooms are to die for

this pack is appealing to my need to create cottagecore lesbians with a cat and many farm animals

The water mark isn’t annoying or distracting at all, I barely notice it, what’s annoying and distracting is every sims RU-vidr having to explain it for so long in every video because everyone feels the need to complain about nothing 😭

Earlier than Kayla can say “it’s fine everything’s fine”.

“I don’t know how much is too much”. Cottage Living brings out Kaylas too much gene.

Many Game Changers have mentioned that they don't think the game has many buy/build things. But when you include the debug, it really increases what's available compared to what you find in other EPs. (And the debug items look more useful than in many EPs.) It looks to me like there is a lot in this EP (especially when you consider all the cool things that are coming as gameplay.) At this point, it's only 11 days until the EP comes out, but it would be nice if it wasn't even *that* long! I am really looking forward to this EP!

I feel like this pack would be good with realm of magic....definitely will suit a cottagecore witch lesbian couple I've always wanted to make

“This isn’t my best work” Girl, this is amazing what are you talking about??!!

I feel like even though there isn’t much furniture in this pack, the quality of the furniture is REALLY high. There are so many build items that I’m in love with, more than any other pack, and I think that’s a good trade.

That was such a gentle intro snap is a baby

“How much is too much” mama cottagecore is quite literally Plant clutter overload no such thing as too much 💋❤️

Feel like Country Kitchen Kit could've easily been part of this pack :/ ah well, we all know EA

PLEASE THE BROKEN OBS WITH KAYAK SHOVING AN APPLE IN HER MOUTH SKFJFNKFFJ 😭💀

I preordered the pack!! I am currently not playing the sims cause my legacy challenge is about to go to gen 2 and she needs to own a farm!

Me waiting for the rags to riches: 👁👄👁

This will literally be the first expansion pack that I am buying at full price. All the others I've got half off on sale. This I need NOW!

Such a beautiful build - cannot wait to see how this pack translates into the Bell legacy! Maybe a desert themed farm?

“You show me a chicken I’m like❤️WOW❤️ a chicken🤩”

I am way too hyped about the typewriter! Finally a sim that can be into writing without needing a computer!

HELL YEAH MORE COTTAGE LIVING

I love when expansion packs have enough furniture to build a house that looks full and unique with them. As it should be

Country kitchen kit would go perfect with this

Oh I've got an idea: You should try to build a Moomin inspired house!

I just realized that now with the POND TOOL we can make SHREK'S SWAMP

Imagine making hobbit houses with this pack 🥺🥺

"That looks like a bean" is probably the funniest thing I've heard today

I think the swatches are imperfectly matched because cottage core decor is tastefully mix-n-match.

Okay but the tiny upstairs bedroom is super realistic for an English house, every one knows the pain of being the sibling with the 'box room' also this house is actually kind of big??

I love the kitchen chicken, it's a wire egg basket 💁‍♀️ We don't have to keep eggs in the fridge in the UK, so we have egg racks or wire baskets (very French country kitchen; a decor style that's very popular in the UK. Its similar to this cottage style, but feels more modern, because its all whites and light greys)

i can tell that kayla is going to have a lot of fun with this pack.

“It’s fine we’re fine everything is fine”

lmfao "this room is too small" English dude here, yeah, our houses are small as hell

I like how nobody talks about the fact that the pond tool is gonna be in the base game so that's why I'm her, like omgosh! Who else is excited!!!!! 6:21

I love everything about this, I love building in the sims and this fulfill almost all my dreams

I’ve been waiting for this bestie-

I was so excited to see you get a look at all the debug - I just knew how much you were going to love it, and it really made me smile.

You make me more motivated to be creative every day, and so I thank you greatly

Fun fact: Lots of house in the uk actually dont have thatched animals on the roof because if you have them on your roof the government don’t give you a loan. (If you didn’t know you can get a loan to help pay for the roof when it needs replacing. They do this so that thatched roofs will stay around and people won’t get rid of them because of how expensive they are to have) Just thought I would share that☺️☺️ Ik nobody care lol 😂

OMG I can't wait to be able to use all these new tree's and landscaping items!!! I love landscaping and gardening the most but up until now I found it too restricting. HYPEDDDD

I get excited about debug stuff too haha I love all the little flowers and mushrooms. I def think I'm better at building and landscaping than I am actually decorating. I struggle more inside. I can't wait to have some chickens and have a good time in the woods :)

I love that you get so excited! It makes me feel happy because I get this excited, too.

This little cottage in marvelous and the little garden it's just adorable. I love it!

This house is so adorable omggg, I really wanna use it in game! It's so perfect

Ooooh I'm LOVING all the cottage living pack. An idea: someone should try building Kate Winslet's cottage from The Holiday! Also these houses will look so nice with the snow from seasons!

I am sooo happy with what this means for sims future! EA is listening to US!

THE ADORABLE LANTERN WAS MY FAV ITEM!

YOUR EXCITED ”CUTE” WHEN U FIND SOMETHING NICE AAAAAAAAA (13:30)

You know what, I’ll be honest with you.. That is actually a really good house I love it! 🥰💕

The rainbow flowers are so pretty! Gosh I love this new pack cannot wait!

firstly cottage houses often have bathroom only on 1st floor so it cn easly be 3-bedroom house and secondly how funny it would be if you make a bathroom outside like it used to be in old days. love it tho you'r the best

please use the ruins in debug for cottage living and build a modern house into the ruins

i loveeee the wheelbarrow, you find landscape like that alot where im from(middle of nowhere new york) but i lovw landscape like that!

okay but we NEED Kayla to build an old cottage or an abandoned barn and make a more modern home out of it using all the packs she wants!!!

That house is so cute!!💕 i love it, you did a really good job building it😊

I'm so excited and anxious about this expansion... And it comes out 4 days after my birthday 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍🐔🦊🌸🧁🎊

I LOVE the new fridge! I feel like we don't have a huge variety of kitchen items, so I'm excited to get that.

We’ve been waiting for this one bestie!! Yesss this is amazing as always!!❤️

I love the new fireplaces and the kitchen furniture.

This is adorable and I love it so much ❤️

Everything is so beautiful! 😍

Love the outside of the cottage and the landscaping!! 😍

You are a great builder Simsie. You inspire me to build

It looks really cute!

honestly the debug stuff, that rug, and the wood floors is enough for me to buy this pack. cant wait to bundle this

CAN’T wait for the pond tool 😆 and updated terrain tool. Love the build, would appreciate a walk through at the end of each build 👀

i love the bed idk the metal frame is so cute

I can’t wait for this pack it’s so heccin’ PRETTY. 😩✨

Already know I’m gonna love it!!

I cannot even choose a favorite item in this pack, everything from the landscaping to the cute animal themed clutter is so CUTE!!!

The items I really love are the sconces! 😍

hi simsie!! i love your content i binge it all day!!

Your attention to detail is amazing!!!!

Kayla this looks amazing!!

I'd definitely think about the storytelling of the architecture. Thatched roofs are used in parts of the world where wood is harder to come by, in places where there's plenty of clay people make ceramic tiles, if there's lots of wood you make wooden tiles, if there's slate you use slate tiles but in many parts of the UK there's very little wood available and clay or slate is dependant on local geology so your available materials are stone if you're lucky or mud (aka cob when used as a building material) if you're not and straw from the local fields. So if the houses are built of stone that's probably the cheap and easily available material for fences too.

Just saying… Nifty Knitting, Paranormal stuff Pack, and this country living pack ✨building dream✨

That wonky cartoony house looks like the dad from Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs

I have been creating like story lines and imaging stuff like this AND ITS FINALLY GONNA BE HERE

Looks very cute. You discovered the reality of these beautiful cottages. Whilst gorgeous from the outside they are usually pokey, dark and badly laid out on the inside. It's unavoidable.

I’m really loving that wallpaper with the mushrooms and bunnies on it, it’s just so cute🥺

so cute everything

OMG IM SO EXCITED TO USE THIS PACKKKK all the debug stuff🥺

I really hope she uploads these builds. They are really good

Gah! I am so excited for this pack!! This is a dream.

I would live there. Nice build!

I just the way she holds Snap in the beginning of the video... so cute

Literally buying the pack to have this build in my save 😍

Hii early birds!

I think a really fun storyline/challenge (maybe?) could be to put a super modern style home in the middle of all these cottages and as the sims start to get used to the town they slowly start to transform their house to fit their new lives

I can’t wait for this pack!!!!! Am I alone in wanting a horse pack where you can have the horse riding skill and have an equestrian career. A full of stables that you can either have on your lot or pay rent for and maybe it being a ranch country area. Anyone else feel that would just add to the country life ?

The house looks so good Kayla thank you so much for doing a cottage build

I'm so hype about ponds

I honestly can’t wait for this pack

I'm so excited for this pack. I usually use a lot of CC in the sims but I know I won't use any or just a tiny bit with this pack because everything looks amazing already !

This pack is so adorable! And Kayla is one of the best builders in game that I watch.
