Gardening?
Added 2021-05-12 15:37:46 +0000 UTCThe next update is more an invitation to my favorite place in our RL garden than an update about gardening. It's not about THE garden with its vegetable, but more about wild plants. As gardening won my previous poll, I'm afraid to disappoint the "real garden" fans, so this poll should help me to determine if you want another gardening set, and if so, please, tell me what you would need, and I'll see if it's something I can do!
Comments are all open to suggestions (and as usual, links to pictures are welcome!)

Oh and this was kinda what I was thinking about the kotatsu (you could go wild with the tablecloth too, but 1-2 clean or plain swatches for the cloth and cushions would be classic and nice too): https://www.mydomaine.com/thmb/am4azJuh2lvQBcm337G8EBluGDY=/2250x1500/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/blackandblooms-59a11cbb7da94349a40d63557f77db46.jpeg And I came across this picture and it made me think of you for some reason: https://i.pinimg.com/originals/9f/7b/3e/9f7b3e7dcf6b272bcd2b5019cf0a75bf.jpg Oh and I remember your super bohemian cushion living set for 3 as well! https://foter.com/photos/263/bohemian-floor-pillows.jpg

2021-06-08 16:18:24 +0000 UTCThat's a lot, but I am good at brainstorming lol. I started thinking of Monty Don's French Gardens series, too. So also...what about rug pieces that are grass-textured and transparency to make big ornamental grass designs (not real life big, but they could be moderately large to take a corner of the garden) you could lay down over gravel like at Versailles or modular ornamental hedge pieces that could be turned into knot gardens? https://media.architecturaldigest.com/photos/5e97454a163f42000805db34/2:1/w_3000,h_1500,c_limit/GettyImages-521175674.jpg potted shrubs and topiaries like these: https://bellevivir.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/FrancoisCatrouxgarden.jpg or these ones: https://hips.hearstapps.com/hmg-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/images/bednar-long-best-french-gardens-exterior-veranda-1579038734.png?crop=1.00xw:0.381xh;0,0.425xh&resize=1200:* I started thinking if you had brick courtyards and could mix in planters and water features and seating and turn it into all kinds of mix of functional and aesthetic nooks, surround the harvestables with dining and pots of flowers and flowerbeds and seating and especially modular things that could make every space customizable...so that even a small balcony could have a few plants on the wall and a bench.

2021-06-08 15:47:19 +0000 UTChmmm....ideas for Gardening. There's so much of the practical clutter and stuff, so I can see why that might be limiting, but what about more of a holistic "garden as also a living space" kind of set? *Very low brick or stone trim fences to edge beds to match the masonry, some paving stones or something as rug pieces. *Maybe a prettier version of the vertical beds that came with Eco Living (something like the floral trellis from romantic garden but put the eco living planter bins on it). *Directly wall-mounted versions of the eco-living planter bins would also be cool. *More wall-creeper plants (I assume some of the ivy and wisteria have been converted up from 3, or there were some for 2 as well but maybe not and those would be great to have). *Alternate versions of the birdfeeder from RG. (maybe even some wall-mounted ones?) *Some tall trellis fences or modern wood-slat fences. *Some brick or stone enclosed firepits to match some of the masonry floors for patios. *The Bohemian Garden stuff from the S3 store converted up, especially the floating chair and the gazebo (oh, especially if it can make plants get the sheltered buff) and the small flower patches and arch. *Small brick or stone raised fountains or water features like there were in WA in S3 I think. *An outdoor kitchen set like the Outdoor Living set from 3. *Some extra aesthetic heaters to make outdoor patio spaces bearable in cold weather. *The kotatsu with more bohemian cushions and a drapey tablecloth. *Brick/stone versions of the planter boxes to match as well. *Sectional stone/brick and/or wood/metal bench that can be placed around trees or flowerbeds or firepits. *Outdoor appropriate booth and table pieces to set up outdoor built-in dining.

2021-05-15 15:34:35 +0000 UTCI'll check that! It reminds me something, I wonder if it's not somethng I would have fixed in my game but forgot to upload!! Gardening gloves and apron? Wow, your gardening gloves are certainly much more cleaner than mine, I wouldn't dare putting them on an apron! :D

2021-05-12 22:38:11 +0000 UTCThe wall decor gardening gloves from a previous gardening set on your ATS4 website glitch into a weird shape when I span away. I don't know if its just my game but thought Id mention it since you're doing a set already could you please fix that or perhaps add a new set of wall decor gardening gloves and apron? Thank you I appreciate you and your art.
