In all seriousness, grown, married adults should NOT be making you feel insecure about whether you come off as a "narcissist". You being proud of what you do and sharing your expertise how ever you like is okay!!
Sorry to be so off topic but does anybody know of a tool to log back into an instagram account?? I somehow forgot my account password. I would love any help you can give me
Do what we like houses have all kinds of structures and pop outs and not all are shaped like boxes. some start off as them but not all. mine stay boxes forever. thanks for trying to correct me though
Another tip: If you're having difficulty getting a general shape for the house, try googling the kind of house you want to build. For example, if I wanted something modern but traditional, I would look up "modern traditional homes". *Edit~* : As far as landscaping goes, I try to use two different trees, three different bushes, and three different flowers. And then don't forget using rocks and the brush tool thingy to add dirt/stone/grass details.
I have just started building homes, for myself and my channel, as normally I just use the gallery due to being TERRIBLE, so these videos are exactly what I'm after! Thanks Kayla :)
Kayla can you do a tiny video on your camera angles? I honestly have no idea how to maneuver my camera like you do and I think that lots of other people probably feel the same. 💚💚
lol 10 minutes, i spend 10 minutes procrastinating, scrolling through your playlists, going on twitter, and “planning a houseplan” which is actually just day dreaming about situations that will never happen
That's one option, but it isn't as free moving as when you're in tab mode, which gets rid of all the surrounding stuff such as the sims panel. It's just a fullscreen place to take pictures with a wide range of movement.
okay just a tip, the fire alarm, it's actually a smoke alarm? which means that if it was real life it would start beeping as soon as smoke came in touch with it, which would make it pretty useless to put exactly over the stove
I love your videos Kayla! Since finding them my houses have improved drastically. I hope that I can improve on landscaping soon because that is definitely not my strong suit.
This is what I needed ! 👍🏻 More so the clutter everytime I try it would always snap to the wall and the grid so I'm hoping my houses will look tons better now !
I know why the corner things don't come in every corner! I was so proud of myself when I realized it😂 So if the corner is only one square away from the wall then it doesn't work. I don't know did you realize the point but hopefully you did😂👍🏻 btw sorry my english I'm from finland😝🇫🇮
JSYK (Just so you know (In case you didn't know (Sorry this is confusing (The English Language (Am I right?))))) Your English is very good, especially if it isn't your first language. If you used Google Translate, that's a different story!
Would you ever consider doing a video with tips on how to make different floorplans, if at all possible? I feel like I always do the same house layout and I don't really know good ways to switch it up. I love your videos so much, thank you for these :)
Some advice I've seen from building videos on landscaping: use only a few plants and trees from the options if you're building a house so it won't seem to messy (for example, choosing the ferns, roses, single bushes, and the evergreens instead of just picking a ton of random ones). Also, use the plants that appear in the rest of the world as it will make your house blend in a lot better with the world/neighborhood. (i.e. don't use big evergreens if you're creating a house for oasis springs and don't use palm trees if you're creating a house for willow creek). ALWAYS put dirt or sand LIGHTLY under your plants, foundation, outdoor stuff such as pillars, toys, grill, fences, fire pits , etc. AKA any plant or item that is permanently or long time attached to the ground. It adds dimension and realism. Also for dimension: lightly spraying other types of "ground" (such as the grass with flowers, darker or lighter shades of grass, etc.) can add a lot more to your build. HOWEVER you need to base those dimensions on the surrounding world.
I know this was posted a while ago, but if/when you do another Builder's Bible, can you do it on furnishing? I have a lot of trouble with furnishing, and everything either looks too empty or too full, and nothing fits right
I know this comment was 2 years ago so you might already know but she did a part about 360 placement in the first Builder's Bible (there's timestamps in the description so you can see when it is)
Thank you for this series, I struggle making outsides look pretty and floor plans. Hopefully I can improve my speed builds now! 😂 PS, hope you feel better soon.
I felt like an absolute idiot when you showed how to make the plants go close to the house. DUH. Why didn't I think of that? I would literally take my porches and foundations away because I couldn't landscape properly. LIFE SAVER.
You probably know now, but the corners of those wallpapers DO work as they are intended to work. Just not the way we want them to. You need to make sure you have TWO squares of walling, for them to appear. Your upstairs walls are only one square out from the main wall, so that's why they - correctly - don't appear. A little weird, but there you go. :-)
Keleley promised me screenies of her pro tips and I don't see any. This is an outrage! I just realized I spelled it "Keleley" and not Kelly and I totally didn't mean to. You know what? I'm keeping it. That's her name now.
24:53 *What Kelly said:* Wait, hold on, watch this. *What my lame mind thought right after it heard it:* Wait, hold on, wash this. Wow. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHA
Kayla you should do a camera tutorial or how to use it in build mode. Because I know that in live mode we use the TAB Key, but I really do not know how to use it in building and so I would really appreciate if you could do that please. Thank you so much!
I filmed a speed build today and I literally did that column thing, put in a chimney and put in an 'out piece' to hide the roof! And I hadn't even watched this video yet 😂
The siding thing only works if the corner has two slots on either side (if you get what I'm saying) - you can see the corners next to corners are the only ones that don't do it 😊
the automated corner pieces that come with certain wallpapers only works when there's 2 or more squares of wall used. so where it doesn't work, you'll see that it's only on walls that have only used one square; extending the wall to 2 spaces will solve that problem. hope this makes sense.
Someone should direct me to a video that shows me how to move the camera so smoothly like she does. I have so much trouble moving the camera in build mode. Or if anyone can tell me, I would be so appreciative. 😂
I felt this so strongly about being called a narcissist by someone you didn’t even know and the resultant insecurity. Kids: If you’re worried about whether or not you’re a narcissist, you’re probably not. A clinical narcissist (which is someone who fits the clinical criteria for narcissistic personality disorder) doesn’t genuinely care or worry about being narcissistic and they’d more likely take it as a compliment, if someone called them a narcissist. Being narcissistic is different than being clinically narcissistic or antisocial. No one who is qualified to make that judgment would do so over the internet. They might speculate, but they wouldn’t likely say it outright. That’s not constructive. It’s an insult. Often people who have insecurities about themselves (or who have negative personality traits, like narcissism) tend to project their own behavior and feelings about themselves into others; they are hurting and so they hurt. Many people may have narcissistic traits or behavior, which often indicates immaturity and insecurity but, they can outgrow these traits. If you’re truly worried about it, please see a professional therapist who can help you with validation and settling some of your insecurities and working through feelings or behavior that might concern you.
kayla: has a beautiful house with an amazing roof and floor plan *also kayla: “we have this pre built house that i kinda spent ten minutes putting together”*
Hi ! Thanks for the tips :) I see two things in your Video. 1 - you have the same annoying bug that i have : like there's something new in the decoration section but there's actually nothing new (Clutter section ? i don't know the name of the section, i play in French). Even with hiddenobject on, can't find that new object... i find that really frustrating ! Have you find a way to get rid of that or found the missing object ? And 2 - you move the camera like if you were using a tab mode in construction mode, who do you do that ? Are you on Sims 3 camera mode ? Or sims 4 ? Many thanks for your help ! Kea
This helped so much Kayla. Thank you for this. I always try and make builds like you but it turns out like doo doo (I use kid friendly language because I’m a child of Jesus) But honestly this video has helped me improve my building skills. :)
Im not sure how to explain this but the wallpaper edge problem works like this at the corner you need 2! Wall pieces in each directin then it will put the corner trim on it if there is only 1 it will not
In all seriousness, grown, married adults should NOT be making you feel insecure about whether you come off as a "narcissist". You being proud of what you do and sharing your expertise how ever you like is okay!!
didn't they say they were psychologists too? like wtf....lmao reevaluate your profession.
Sorry to be so off topic but does anybody know of a tool to log back into an instagram account??
I somehow forgot my account password. I would love any help you can give me
@@zachariahgerardo1609 did you get it back? Also, you posted this 4 years after they made the comment, so…
Girl. THANK YOU!
XUrbanSimsX I love you jen
Jenn!!!
ilysm jen! x
Twice in one day I seen a delicacy comment by you earlier
you threw that together in 10 minutes? you know what i can throw together in 10 minutes? a box with a roof. yes i spend 10 minutes on boxes with roofs
Jalishia Ellis that's technically what a house is
Jalishia Ellis Hahaha same😂😂
Do what we like houses have all kinds of structures and pop outs and not all are shaped like boxes. some start off as them but not all. mine stay boxes forever. thanks for trying to correct me though
Jalishia Ellis there's different type of boxes. So I guess I meant that houses are just boxes connected together
I'm happy that is not just me
I NEEDED THIS SO BADLY
Another tip: If you're having difficulty getting a general shape for the house, try googling the kind of house you want to build. For example, if I wanted something modern but traditional, I would look up "modern traditional homes".
*Edit~* : As far as landscaping goes, I try to use two different trees, three different bushes, and three different flowers. And then don't forget using rocks and the brush tool thingy to add dirt/stone/grass details.
The fireplace thing with the roofs is such a helpful thing! Bc i struggle with the roof looking weird on the sides of my houses!
OMG BUILDERS BIBLE IS MY FAVE THING!
I have just started building homes, for myself and my channel, as normally I just use the gallery due to being TERRIBLE, so these videos are exactly what I'm after! Thanks Kayla :)
a clutter tutorial?!?!
oh h*ck yes
why did you sensor "heck"?
Tara Elisabeth Oh god! This is a family channel! No swearing!
Lily Loo Woo please tell me you are joking.
HECK AIN'T NO SWEAR!
WoodpekaSimz its a joke my dudes XD
Kayla can you do a tiny video on your camera angles? I honestly have no idea how to maneuver my camera like you do and I think that lots of other people probably feel the same. 💚💚
lol 10 minutes, i spend 10 minutes procrastinating, scrolling through your playlists, going on twitter, and “planning a houseplan” which is actually just day dreaming about situations that will never happen
Never related more, to be honest.
Why are we like this
big mood
i take 10 minutes picking wallpaper. HOW KAYLA. HOW.
An AMAZING tip that I learned from Deligracy, is in the paint tool, use dirt and put it under your trees. Makes it blend so well.
when you were showing the kitchen pressed "g" to try to turn off the grid before i realized this is a youtube video....
Haha, i alwxays do that too :D
Kayla: Calls babies it
Kayla: Calls wall decor "her"
Lol
abbie s in sims 4 babies basically are objects
M technically they are actually objects
next do camera tips
karminsims but this is a sims channel :/
They mean camera as in screenshots. When you press tab it goes into "camera mode".
MyInvisibleRose all you do is move the camera and press c ??
That's one option, but it isn't as free moving as when you're in tab mode, which gets rid of all the surrounding stuff such as the sims panel. It's just a fullscreen place to take pictures with a wide range of movement.
Bread Stick
no like camera angles and the best way to film sims and stuff.
You helped me a lot especially since you are fussy like me. The fences being 2 then 3 is a BIGG no no as well as wrong facing flooring. Subbed
YOU JUST SAVED MY LIFE KAYLA! YOU SHOULD DO A BUILD CONTEST!
I don't understand how people can be so unnecessarily rude when you're such a sweet person! Thank you for the tips Kayla!
Great series! It's really helped me to improve my house building in the sims! 😁
About the pathway issue: You can always rotate the floor tiles by clicking . or ,
Cecilie thank you person 🙏
okay just a tip, the fire alarm, it's actually a smoke alarm? which means that if it was real life it would start beeping as soon as smoke came in touch with it, which would make it pretty useless to put exactly over the stove
I love simsies furnishings they are amazing and I love THE CLUTTER
I love your videos Kayla! Since finding them my houses have improved drastically. I hope that I can improve on landscaping soon because that is definitely not my strong suit.
thank you for this, Kayla! you're a life saver. i've always struggled with placing plants by the foundation 😅
This is what I needed ! 👍🏻
More so the clutter everytime I try it would always snap to the wall and the grid so I'm hoping my houses will look tons better now !
This is so cool! I knew most of the indoor cluttering stuff, but not the shelf one. I'll definitely try it
I know why the corner things don't come in every corner!
I was so proud of myself when I realized it😂 So if the corner is only one square away from the wall then it doesn't work. I don't know did you realize the point but hopefully you did😂👍🏻 btw sorry my english I'm from finland😝🇫🇮

I know this was posted a while ago, but if/when you do another Builder's Bible, can you do it on furnishing?
I have a lot of trouble with furnishing, and everything either looks too empty or too full, and nothing fits right
I hope you feel better!
Yay, I've gotten so much inspiration for decorating from watching your builds, I love it, and thank you!!
Thank you for making this video Kayla!! It was very helpful and I will definitely use these tips in the future.
PLEASE UPLOAD THIS TO THE GALLERY!! I LOVE ITTT
yes i missed this series!!!!!!
I’m always looking for new videos like these great job! I feel like my viewers get bored with my builds😔Thanks tho hopefully this will help!!
I have been playing and building in the sims for a while and this video was really helpful!!!
Can you do camera controls, and 360 placement next PWWWEEEEEAAAAASSEEE?!
I know this comment was 2 years ago so you might already know but she did a part about 360 placement in the first Builder's Bible (there's timestamps in the description so you can see when it is)
I have been trying to figure out the counter thing for years! THANK YOU!
You know the drill!
1. Stop
2. Drop
3. And Roll
Thank you for this series, I struggle making outsides look pretty and floor plans. Hopefully I can improve my speed builds now! 😂
PS, hope you feel better soon.
I felt like an absolute idiot when you showed how to make the plants go close to the house. DUH. Why didn't I think of that? I would literally take my porches and foundations away because I couldn't landscape properly. LIFE SAVER.
I need one of these for living rooms so badly
Ilysm you're such a good builder and your channel is so entertaining❤️❤️
You probably know now, but the corners of those wallpapers DO work as they are intended to work. Just not the way we want them to. You need to make sure you have TWO squares of walling, for them to appear. Your upstairs walls are only one square out from the main wall, so that's why they - correctly - don't appear. A little weird, but there you go. :-)
Kayla use the delete key to sell your items! (Please get Kayla to notice this somehow)
Thanks for sharing about how to place objects better on counters! That has always been something that irritated me! Loved the video :)
Keleley promised me screenies of her pro tips and I don't see any. This is an outrage!
I just realized I spelled it "Keleley" and not Kelly and I totally didn't mean to.
You know what? I'm keeping it.
That's her name now.
Simly Summer AHAHAH
That sounds hawaiian
OMG! I love you Kayla! You are the best!
24:53
*What Kelly said:* Wait, hold on, watch this.
*What my lame mind thought right after it heard it:* Wait, hold on, wash this.
Wow.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHA
Liv her name is kayla
It's an inside joke.
Liv her name is kayla
Thank you so much! This video has made all of my builds look so much better!
Kayla you should do a camera tutorial or how to use it in build mode. Because I know that in live mode we use the TAB Key, but I really do not know how to use it in building and so I would really appreciate if you could do that please. Thank you so much!
Can you do a video where u just show us ur building cheats? xx
i always wondered why you fiddled around with the fences so much, i didn't notice until now haha
When you’re watching in quarantine and you know that you can put the plants super close to the foundation...
that preset column in the wallpaper drives me up the wall. now i know how to combat it. thanks :)
thank you for this! I do sims 4 house building on my channel to and I'm always looking for ways to improve.
It would take me hours to do that house, you are insanely good for doing it in 10 minutes.
I filmed a speed build today and I literally did that column thing, put in a chimney and put in an 'out piece' to hide the roof! And I hadn't even watched this video yet 😂
me and my husband personally think you are amazing at what you do
I've ordered the disc for the sims 4, and I've been waiting for almost a month, it's so annoying! You've been keeping me sane though haha.
Meli Moocow why not order through origin
Mary Hines Yeah, I wish I did that, but I had no idea what I was doing when I ordered it lol.
Wow I cannot believe this was four years ago. Great techniques - still relevant!
The siding thing only works if the corner has two slots on either side (if you get what I'm saying) - you can see the corners next to corners are the only ones that don't do it 😊
AW SWEET BUILDERS BIBLE IS BACK
This is like a year late, but omg. The ending section on clutter was so revolutionary for me. I could watch hours of clutter being placed.
the automated corner pieces that come with certain wallpapers only works when there's 2 or more squares of wall used. so where it doesn't work, you'll see that it's only on walls that have only used one square; extending the wall to 2 spaces will solve that problem. hope this makes sense.
I loved this video Kayla!
YAY!!! BUILDERS BIBLE IS BAAAAACCCCKKKKK
that was a good jumpy plant tip. i needed that tip. thanks :)
THAT IS WHAT THE SPANDRELS ARE FOR!!??!?? Christ. I could never figure this out ! :D
Someone should direct me to a video that shows me how to move the camera so smoothly like she does. I have so much trouble moving the camera in build mode. Or if anyone can tell me, I would be so appreciative. 😂

I would love for the coffee makers to sit further back and/or able to place further to the side of counters.
YAY this is back!
I am a perfectionist and this helped me a lot.THANK U!
I needed this ilysm
Can you do an interior video next please? Tysm, you've helped me with a lot of things but I'm still struggling with the interior xD

I DID NOT know about the option for cabinets omg...
I legit love that Simsie will call baby's and Sims "it"... but she has no problem calling wall decals in a kitchen "him" or "her" at 25:52

i love having the band train in my kitchen
This helped so much Kayla. Thank you for this. I always try and make builds like you but it turns out like doo doo (I use kid friendly language because I’m a child of Jesus) But honestly this video has helped me improve my building skills. :)
Lord knows how bad I needed this
Thank you so much, your hints and tips are very helpful
Thank you for finally explaining how you put clutter on kitchen counters lol
I love these videos! (Since I can't build for my life)
Im not sure how to explain this but the wallpaper edge problem works like this at the corner you need 2! Wall pieces in each directin then it will put the corner trim on it if there is only 1 it will not

Hey Kayla can you do one on filling up empty space? ❤️
