Have A Heart Umbrella Override Link Updated 13th Oct 2020
This is a cool bit of decor that until now couldn't really be used without the moveobjects on cheat due to it having a 9 tiled footprint! These are meant to sit close to chairs and tables not 15 ft away. This is an override that reduces the footprint to 1. So you can put the umbrella anywhere and avoid sunburn and aging. All it will do is replace the game umbrella with the same one with a smaller footprint. It came with Get Together, so you will need that pack for this to show.

Nesting Box Link Updated 13th Oct 2020
I found this in an old Sims 2 file, made by BitzyBus, she had put it in a tree that I used all the time. I really liked this so I decided I needed it in my game. There are two files the nesting box that sits anywhere and a nesting box that is a wall decoration. The wall box will move up & down like a picture, both are base game compatible. There are three colours for the pretty birds and the boxes are a little different in each too. Mesh By BitzyBus (2006) Thank you wherever you are. Polys 462.

Summer Tree With Lights Link Updated 13th Oct 2020
This tree came with the free Christmas holiday pack but its footprint was the size of a small country so I rarely used it. Plus it was bare. I liked it so I changed the footprint to tiny and put leaves on it for the summer and DaDa! A summer garden tree. Or put them outside your restaurant, at a wedding reception etc. etc... Six colours found in Lights, deco Misc (for some reason) and Trees. 100 bucks. Mesh is all Maxis so do what you want with it. I have also include the original tree; 'Pre-strung Tree of Lights' (£367) override with the same tiny footprint so you can put that one anywhere too come xmas. The files are separate so you can pick or use both. Happy summer partying 
 
The night pictures don't do them justice they are much prettier in game.
It's great when it all clicks and works together

The mesh is mine, 553 polys. Found in flowers.

Umbrella Table With Shelf Link Updated 13th Oct 2020
This started as a simple recolour and developed into all sorts of malarkey. Ten tables with umbrellas and a little shelf for your glasses and plates (sorry about that) candles and whatever. I recoloured 10 'Formerly Folding Chairs' to match they are in the zip file too. The table and chairs came with Backyard Stuff so you will need this pack for both the objects to show. Four patterns 5 plain colours and one lace effect. I made these for a very rare wedding in my game, I hope they come in useful for you too. Found in surfaces, outdoor. Table- £320, chairs £100 in comfort. The mesh is Maxis, pulled into a new shape by me. Chairs are the same just recoloured.

Border Flowers Link Updated 13th Oct 2020
These groups of flowers are designed to to fill your sims garden borders without having lots of little plants squeezed together. There are 3 different types, with a total of 7 colour combinations. They have a small footprint so you can plant them very close or even slightly overlapping each other. The pictures show the front backs and sides, they have a gently curved edge like a lot of real life flower filled borders. and Border Flowers 2 can probably be used facing back as well as front. Base game compatible as they were cloned from the wild flowers. 30 bucks found in Garden Flowers. All three separate files are in the zip. Mesh by me, ploys 110. Have Fun.

Rock Facelift Link Updated 13th Oct 2020
I have meaning to give the five game rocks a facelift for ages. I found some great textures from [email protected] (I cannot make a link it keeps coming back here) and set to work. All five rocks have the same six textures. Afternoon game light can make the lighter ones look a little washed out so I put them under trees or plants but they look fine just about anywhere. The textures are interesting if you can get close enough to see the detail. The prices are a cheaper than the game rocks because well come on, they are rocks. Mesh is of course Eaxis. I hope they come in useful.

Cherry & Willow Recolours Link Updated 13th Oct 2020
These big trees hardly ever got used in my game, they are so big that to see them the player must be a long way away from them. These trees have had a makeover and no longer fade away as soon as looked at. They do still vanish when very close but now they can be seen. They also stand in fountain water because willow trees love water. As it's summer I thought I'd treat them. There are 2 files for each tree. An OVERRIDE and a Recolour. The Override will REPLACE your EA tree with these ones and the recolour will just add a tree or two, your call. Choose one because both is a bit silly. Mesh is Maxis, The textures are mine except for the willow leaves they belong to the Sims 2 willow.

Wisteria Tree Link Updated 13th Oct 2020
I found this is the debug section. Its labelled as a bonsai tree but I thought that it looked more like a wisteria tree that I've seen in Japan. Its a crazy shape as the pictures show but I really like the fact it adds a new dimension to the gardens. I added the ability to sit on the water surface so it can laze in fountains and on the edge of pools if you want. It has 10 slots, 1 medium and 9 small. I have no idea what you can put in it but boundaries keep being pushed so maybe there will be effects that could sit in the branches one day. I also added the no fade option, it will disappear when really close but you will be able to see it without zooming back 15 miles. It has a tiny footprint so flowers and grass can sit right up close, no cheats were used in the pictures. Mesh by Maxis, polys 1160. Two colours pink & blue, found in trees, 300 bucks. Today is my birthday so this is my present to you.

Pond Plant Collection by Macarossi Link Updated 13th Oct 2020
I converted these plants from S2-4 by Macarossi because they are beautifully made and I missed them in my water gardens. There are 14 separate plants, Taro & Mosaic have two different styles. I also added a frog on a lily pad to complete the look. I made the footprint small so they can be grouped. They sit on the water and on land and are base game compatible. Found in plants, fountain and pool, cost 26 bucks. Plant meshes are by Macarossi. The frog is by [email protected] These are cloned from a Get Together plant so you will need that pack for them to show in your game. Polys- Aubertia; 708, Bogarum; 543, Border Lilies; 734, Cleome; 734, Fritillaira; 661, Mosaic1; 516, Mosaic2; 936, Taro1; 624, Taro2; 224, Thalia; 792, Sacred Lotus; 636, Trillium; 541, Verbascum; 590, Vincas; 1006.
