to me, storybook is anything that would be in a castle and a princess would have. so gothic benches fit the vibe, sleeping beauty's nursery fits the vibe (the pink swatches of the nursery kit lol)
I guess it's more of Grimms' fairytales as opposed to tangled... But I still love it! And as an artist... I can't wait to see how the studio kit looks!!
I LOVE THIS !! I think there’s like, three categories of story book bc there’s so many different types of stories and fairy tales. 1. Castles and princesses vibe; I feel like that’s both gothic/old and more princess-Victorian 2. Woodland cottage; I feel like this also falls under “peasant house” LMFAO like more homey vibes 3. Witchy and Magic; this more falls into the darker aspects of storybook maybe a more villain/antagonist vibe or maybe not just a fun magical type build
I love your stream-of-consciousness candid sort of narration throughout this! And the jumping from different parts of the house for whatever moved you in the moment, it felt so relaxed and funny and enjoyable! Have a great twitch con :)
it's amazing that they've added a changing table and floor mat that don't cost 40 bucks to get, but also idk if the content in growing together without the items that make infant gameplay functional is worth 40 bucks
As a player who builds for 90% of my gameplay time, I find the other growing together furniture well worth it. It's some of my favorite furniture in the game with the modern style and unique things like the upright piano and splash pad stuff. But I can see how other players have different priorities.
Like any kit, you should only get it if you like the style. Also, usually this means that the features have been pulled into base game, and you can use CC versions without needing to own any packs
Kayla, you should do an “Expectation vs Reality” build for this kit, once you are back home! This build is what you expected the storybook nursery kit to be like, & the next build should reflect that ‘Bridgerton’ style aesthetic that you mentioned 😊
I definitely see this as more storybook cottage, and the kit is more fairytale castle. Both valid takes, but I'm much more partial to the cottagey vibes myself.
I actually don’t know what the kit looks like, because you’re the only one who tells me about it, and I don’t consume any other Sims content than yours. I don’t even play Sims anymore 😅
the big chimney at the front of the house is totally giving me blacksmith vibes!! Like it looks like a perfect place to put a big anvil and workplace, like March & Olric’s house in FOM ☺️!!
This is such a cute and cosy build! 😍 Totally fits the vibes of a storybook home! 🍄 I'm very impressed! Great job Kayla! 🥳 (I'm definitely downloading this lot off the gallery, because I want to play in this cottage) 🌷
Lilsimsie I absolutely adore your builds! You are so talented and I've saved almost every build of yours to "have on hand" for when I am going for a certain lot with a certain family and storyline. You are so talented and creative!!
I've been building a Tudor style cottage since the second the pack launched, and no joke, I did the EXACT same thing with my chimney. 😮 I thought I was so clever 😅
Another amazing build! I love your style and technique the most of any simmer on TH-cam. It really bugs me though when you make a fireplace a feature of the exterior build and don’t put a fireplace there in the floorplan 😅
Me and Kayla has vastly different styles and tastes and yet I’m absolutely in love with everything she builds! It’s crazy cos everything I make is basic, modern, and boring 😂
To me storybook could be anything with a royal, cottage or SPECIALLY medieval vibe, since fairytales are all set in medieval times. Like with the Snow White movie, the castle is very medieval and she ends up living on a rustic cottage in the forest. Btw, this has to be your best landscape that I remember of, it turned out so beautiful!!
When I think Storybook I think Grimm fairytales: castles, royalty, magical beasts, medieval vibes. So I totally get where this kit is coming from. But it would also be fun to get something more on the fairycore side.
To me, storybook can be like Disney Snow White on one hand (whimsy, light and bright, etc) or Brothers Grimm Snow White on the other (dark, moody, creepy, etc) 😊

Yeah I agree, but also colorful too. Like soft colors you'd only see in, well, a fairytale book
I'm thinking more snow-white type vibes. Like humble little cozy spaces full of earthy colours. Definitely not royalty level stuff.
I agree, it’s like Aurora in her cottage AND back in the castle as princess: both storybook, one more whimsical the other maybe regal
That pond sure had nice... features.. xd 9:01
So glad I wasn't the only one to notice! XD
I’m glad I’m not the only one who noticed! Was gonna comment the same thing!
YESS EXACTLY! More baby stuff makes that whole stage way more funnn
I guess it's more of Grimms' fairytales as opposed to tangled... But I still love it! And as an artist... I can't wait to see how the studio kit looks!!
Honestly that’s way more my style anyway. I’d be happy with either though.
the pond shape😭😭😭😭
yeahhhh i was thinking that 😭
I KNOWWW
omgggggggggg i saw that too
"Maybe it could be... interesting?" 👀👀👀 mhm sure
Yeah, she did it and I went... that's a bit "that"😂😂😂😂
I feel like with all the new pink swatches you should do an updated pink cottage or an updated barbie house....:) plus I just love the new pink

“The pond is kind of a weird shape..” 9:06
Me: 👀
@@amberkx1816 thought I was the only one😅👀
She's so innocent she didn't notice 😭
We're all sims fans, but I'm a Simsie fan, so I'm waiting for Kayla to come back to watch any reviews/builds with the kits 😂❤
Literally 😂 only trust her word
Literally same lolll the packs r not out until Kayla reviews it
Literalllllyyyy I only watch sims news from her so I know Its real
She’s uploading a review today! ❤
SAME
Cute house! It's going to be so easy to "update" the nursery with the new kit.
I also thought whimsical, fairy tale animals for storybook! There's a webkinz storybook room theme that's exactly that LOL. Love this build!!
the chimney not lining up with the fireplace 😅beautiful build kayla!
This really upset me and I came to the comments to see if anyone else was too haha
@@electropuffmel23 Same, i was like "nooo, you had the perfect spot for the fireplace"
I hate that from chimney 😭😭😫

@@BryanLu0unless you’re on console.
Growing Together's CAS and BB items are well worth the price. I promise you.
@@0CaptainZer0nah. None of these are ever worth 40 DOLLARS.
I think this is my favorite build you’ve ever done! So fun, sweet, and whimsical! I would definitely watch another with the new stuff!!! 🍄
Really enjoyed seeing Kayla go in on the landscaping in a more organic way. It’s really cool in my opinion ❤

She did this video without the newst kit, so the nursery kit its not in this video.
She showed the promo pics with every item in the kit
REAL. i barely watch sims content or play anymore because the game has gotten so boring.
0:53 personally I think of Hobbit holes
I am always in awe at lilsimsies hard work and dedication to releasing videos right after Sims 4 announcements
bridgerton style house has to get built with this new kit
I LOVE the storybook cottages you build and think you should absolutely make more.
The pond shape is crazy
I love that you went for the actual architectural style of storybook! I hope you do more. :D
This house can be remodeled into the pink storybook inside and maybe they can have a gothic style witchy house cottage next door neighbor
the big chimney at the front of the house is totally giving me blacksmith vibes!! Like it looks like a perfect place to put a big anvil and workplace, like March & Olric’s house in FOM ☺️!!
This is probably my favorite house you've ever done
Honestly this was a great comfort for those who might not be able to buy the kit yet!
The landscaping on this lot is the flora I want in real life
I know she is going to love the new kit, super excited for that build
I’m so excited to see the pack
Knitting and needlepoint is definitely storybook to me
This turned out so adorable!! I love it!!! 🩵
I actually liked the pass-thru half bath downstairs!! Still a very cute build ❤
This is such a cute and cosy build! 😍 Totally fits the vibes of a storybook home! 🍄 I'm very impressed! Great job Kayla! 🥳 (I'm definitely downloading this lot off the gallery, because I want to play in this cottage) 🌷
I'm sure I'm not alone when I say more whimsy more whimsy more more more, all the whimsy. I love it. Keep making more.
Lilsimsie I absolutely adore your builds! You are so talented and I've saved almost every build of yours to "have on hand" for when I am going for a certain lot with a certain family and storyline. You are so talented and creative!!
I’ve never been this early! Love your videos!
that's one of my fav builds of yours of all time
I LOVE YOUR BUILDS!!!!

9:04 “That’s kind of a weird shape” ….uh huh. Sure is.

I love anything faitytale-like ❤

I would love to see a renovation of this house with the new kit, especially the nursery!
Ty for posting it brightens my day
So excited!!
omggg this new kit is PERFECT for me!!😍😍
the pond shape is... interesting...
You look so cute in this video 🥹 love the bangs and the shirt ❤️
Oh and I also love the build, it turned out so nice!
I love this style too! I feel like in my dream world I would love to live in Henford On Bagley and the cute little village!
This is genuinely my dream house. I love fairycore and fairytale core (with a dash of Harry Potter) with a passion.
loveee this build simsie!! you are truly so good at this style
This is literally the best landscaping I’ve ever seen you do!!! I love it so much
I’m obsesseddd w cottage-whimsical storybook builds in the sims & I’m definitely inspired to finish mine now! 🫶🏻
you and the sims makes me so happy
This is so adorable. The cuteness overload is gonna end me, and I'm okay with it. ❤
Yaaaas it's lilsimsie the best Sims 4 gamer ever
This is one of your best builds!
amazing build! i HAVE to download it
Another amazing build! I love your style and technique the most of any simmer on TH-cam. It really bugs me though when you make a fireplace a feature of the exterior build and don’t put a fireplace there in the floorplan 😅
AMAZING SIMSIE
This house has such a nice shape, it makes my brain happy.
This house looks SO CUTE
This build is gorgeous I want to live here 😍
the items in the storybook kit are so good that i bougt a pack on relace day for the first time. i just simply neeeeeeeeded that new playmat
I’ve never been so early😭
2:02 That bench instantly made me think of shrek!
get out of my swamp
SO CUTE!!! LOVE IT💕
I LOVEE THIS
This is totally my style. I love it
the house interior is giving me lorelai’s house energy from gilmore girls 🥺 idkw
I wish I knew how to build like this. I just go to the gallery for Kayla's awesome builds ❤
YESSSS
Me and Kayla has vastly different styles and tastes and yet I’m absolutely in love with everything she builds! It’s crazy cos everything I make is basic, modern, and boring 😂

I really love this house
So pretty! 😊
I really feel like we should have climbing ivy that functions the way columns do.
such a cute house :D
When I think Storybook I think Grimm fairytales: castles, royalty, magical beasts, medieval vibes. So I totally get where this kit is coming from. But it would also be fun to get something more on the fairycore side.
Ooof I would love these two kits. Maybe it can convince me hard enough to buy them haha
To me, storybook can be like Disney Snow White on one hand (whimsy, light and bright, etc) or Brothers Grimm Snow White on the other (dark, moody, creepy, etc) 😊
I think what the actual kit is, is really cool. However when I first heard storybook I thought like Stork, more circus, goldy locks, etc.
ig to me storybook reminds me of fairytales so the dual princess-y vibe and evil queen vibe is exactly what i expected
I wonder if it's difficult to have such a varied wardrobe that is also so cute?
with the paint i always think of the more transparent stones as being obscured by grass
Watching this on my TV and my phone at the same time 😂
Why isn't the fireplace in the chimney wall ? 😅
Beautiful landscaping!
I can’t believe I made it so early this time lol. So excited!
It almost doesn't feel like kit release date without Kayla's review of the packs😹
i've never been this early lol. anyway EXCITED i love the vibes of this cottage wah
This is my dream house. 😍
More story book, always more story book
Kayla saying she expected more animal prints. Just wait till she sees the circus themed items…
