When phones were landlines & were mounted to the wall, and the main phone for the house was in the kitchen, we also had a random chair in the kitchen so you could sit down while you were talking on the phone.
I remember the late 00’s really went for a Mediterranean look, especially in the kitchens. The furniture was all dark woods and bulky and there were tons of neutral tones in the fabrics and paints.
It would have actually been really funny the other way around. Like the owners just were like "Let's expand the house!" and built the whole story in the new current style 😂
13:25 hey! not sure if you will see this, but to prevent that from happening, what has worked for me is to NOT use the "add a platform" tool. Just build, for your case, a 4x4 room with regular walls. Then raise that room up to your desired height, and then delete those walls. Then you will have just the platform left. You shouldn't have any issues with it messing everything else up! Hope that helps for you if you see it! Or anyone else with that issue!
This build kinda reminds me of old grand summer homes in like the Midwest that people renovated every decade or so and built fuck off giant modern extensions onto them-
As a non-native I have a hard time with accents so naturally I was so confused why Jess kept talking about something "naughty" whenever they said "90s"
Naughties is a play on Nineties. Naught means zero/nothing! So since the 00's followed the 90's, it kind of makes sense! That being said, I haven't ever heard "naughties" outside of this channel. Not sure if it's a British thing or if it's a plumbella thing
the platforms wall deletion thing is so annoying!! i find that the least annoying way to do it is just draw a wall where u want the platform to be, then delete that wall once you've adjusted that little room's height. stupid that we have to do it like that but :') also, it would be really cool to see this concept as a "one house, redecorated each decade" series!!!
this gave me life as someone who lives in a 1840s home that was remodeled in the 1880s, 1970s and currently. a multidecade home is natural to me esp a good 70s wood panel wall oof. we had a shag lime green carpeted bathroom with jungle wallpaper... and an all yellow bathroom. my bedroom still has the 70s floral wallpaper and it drives my nd mind wild. omg and dont even get me started on the stonepattern masonry(?) plastic flooring.
Okay but same concept - except you start with the 50s on the bottom and then the 60s on the next floor and so on. But you can’t plan the whole build. You can only do it floor by floor so by the 00s you have a beautiful unhinged monstrosity
I like all but the third floor. If I were to download it, I’d delete it and just keep 2 floors because the overall shape isn’t bad at all. I wish I had that talent to just start randomly drawing boxes and building on from there. I have to think long and hard and sketch down a floor plan on a piece of paper before I attempt a build lol 😅
I’m amazed by how well you did with the 00’s, tbh - i was racking my brains as to what houses looked like back then, and then you basically recreated my childhood best friend’s living room in front of my very eyes lmao.
6:15 I relate so hard. As a kid, my parents would prefer to have dinners outside during British summer, and I was not allowed to sit inside or leave the table if they came near. I would literally sit at the table, barely able to breathe because there were always wasps around. I still hate them to this day, still terrified, and if one comes close to me I can't stop flinching away in fear.
Wasps could kill my cousin. Medical mess up so he's gone years without an epi pen. Wasps are like Alien movie aliens in predatory behavior, so they are pretty horrific. Darwin came up with the theory of evolution, just because he didn't think God created something as horrible as wasps.
>.< Being forced to stay put as they circle is so fucking traumatising... I was almost 30 when I finally got past my fear of wasps. We had them start coming in at night, when the hives break down in autumn. My bleeding heart barely beat my phobia, and after two years of playing "catch the confused wasp before mom wakes up and kills them" I was down from phobic to "please just stay awa- NO THAT'S MY FACE! D8
ok I commented this before finishing the video bc adhd reasons and you said the same thing so anyway I'd love to see you try to build the actual burrow
Tip for straight lines / natural looking terrain paint paths: Use the larger square tool and just click as if it's a stamp rather than a paintbrush. And then along the sides, to hide any seams that didn't 100% line up, I use the smallest round brush and add the smallest border of dirt on either side of the path. Then if the edge is still uneven, it just looks like it's grass and dirt growover.
Somehow every house I remember from the 90s was like a soap opera set. Cream flecked carpet, silver accents, blue and white wallpaper, leather sofas, ruffles on EVERYTHING (especially the windows) and fake flowers with dust on them. Tbh, the Ramsey's house from the JonBenet Ramsey case is one of the most accurate representations of 90s mansion for me lol.
omg yes, that was my aunt's house. She cleaned and perfected it into depression and it _showed_ ... Hers was classier than the soap opera style, though, in her defence. xD Some nice antiques fit in with the ruffles, rococo sofas. Of course the 90's water bed. Which was great fun for a kid when the dog jumped up. Which I definitely didn't lure it into doing. >w>
I nearly got my first tattoo on holiday but chickened out… and I love yours! I should have got a lunar isle inspired one maybe 🤔 love this concept and I actually felt the 70s bedroom was bang on the money and i loved that floor!!! ❤️❤️❤️
As a random person who loves tattoos but has a kinda low pain tolerance level I have to say they actually don’t hurt that much (obviously depends on the place on your body you’re getting it but still) It’s kinda the same feeling as scratching but a little bit stronger So if you want one but are scared of the pain it really is mostly just in your mind
Its probably a good thing you chickened out. You really want to research the tattoo parlour you're going to go to in order to make sure it meets health & safety (including proper sterilisation of the needles) and to find out the quality of the work. Plus its always a good idea to spend some time to find an artist whose art style really matches what you're thinking of getting. The people who end up on Tattoo Fixers (and similar programs) are always there to cover up a spur of the moment decision gone wrong. Whether it be picking a design off the display boards & it being too generic in the end, or just going and getting a tattoo on holiday/when drunk (a good tattooist will not tattoo a drunk client) and it turning out shitty. Planning it out properly will increase the chances of you loving the finished result.
@@AlexaFaie very true babe. I want my tattoo to be fairly meaningful and to represent some people I have lost so I agree with everything you said. I definitely don’t just want a generic mistake lol 😂
Okay but the beginning of the video was so friggin adorable, I felt the same way when I got my first tatt! Although tbf mine is huge on my small body and covers most of my shoulder 😂 Fell asleep halfway through it too, it was therapeutic.

Plumbella making absolute BANGERS videos lately. They have always been epic but Brunette hair era just be hitting different I love love love the content lately thank you babes!
It's like if each generation of your family decorated their part of the their shared house to be like the decades that they grew up with / the decades like when they were born lol
We had EVERYTHING red gloss in the 10's in germany 😭 red gloss front door, red gloss kitchen, red leather couches... And we had the same beige wood tones e v e r y w h e r e in the 00's. And beige tiles, and beige toilets and beige sinks... 😮💨
The red gloss everywhere -thing I call midlife crisis red because all of those house owners are now in their midlife crisis and are getting a divorce so more and more of those houses are for sale 💸
Jessie don't worry too much about outdoor plants, they only need attention once they are planted (if they're the kind that last for years and handle the winter) after that most of them they just exists, it's amazing honestly. Indoor plants be like "I'm allergic to tap water". Food plants are different but like bushes and stuff u know
As someone whose parents watched a lot of Home and Garden television in the 90’s and early 2000’s before they rebranded as HGTV and forgot about the G part and focused exclusively on fake home hunting - I think your backyard is reasonably 2000’s accurate. I remember getting into an argument with my parents over the volume of a gardening program that was just paving the backyard into a patio because our family pc was next to the tv and I had to type a paper.
7:00 - My backyard in my house growing up was quite big. It was divided into 3 sections with a treehouse & playarea on the left, pool in the middle, and an open area to the right. And then it had a porch/deck as well.
The modern fireplace for '00s TOTALLY ACCURATE. Ours was a chrome floating gas fire but loads of people had floating white gas fires with the fake rocks
The trick to plat forms I use, which I’ve seen others do, put up walls the size of your desirable platform and the use the arrows to raise it and then delete the walls you put. That way it doesn’t ruin the other walls.
I can just imagine this as a house kept in the family with a partial renovation to match the modern (at the time) tastes for whoever took over ownership, whilst still keeping a little bit of the parent(s)/previous generation :) a very cool build.
You're 100% right about the black gloss kitchens. I didn't even think about it until the text came up on screen but we had our kitchen re-done in 2005 and it was all black gloss cabinets and bar stools and everything else was chrome including the shower head like tap thingies. Good times
This build owns my heart and I can't wait to play in it I'm obsessed 😍😍😍 (also as someone who's learning about their own style and has fallen into the 80's/70's bright colors style I'm absolutely in love with the 70s floor although I think the other floors are equally exceptional as well)
2000s was either beige wood or everything was made of glass. Glass dining table, glass coffee table, glass TV stand, glass fruit bowl, glass cabinets. Even the newer houses had windows instead of walls, glass doors. So much glass!
I'm pleased to know that the 00's was the same in the UK as it was in the US. Like... what was up with the obsession with brown and beige? The Mediterranian-ness of it all, the leather sofas, etc. it was so... interesting lmao
i think part of the reason why this works so well is the cycle of fashion trends!! naughties interior design undeniably had a lot of 70s influence, and 70s had a lot of 50s influence, so there is a general flow of themes. but if you tried to mesh the naughties and, say, the 80s, or the 80s and the 50s, i don’t think it would work as well because they don’t have any correlation
J: 00's! Me: what did the 00's look like for furniture? It just seemed 'normal' at the time, or like all jelly chairs... J: beige. Me: oh, yeah, actually, this is unlocking memories...
I’m working on a whole house with a family for each decade going from 1910 to 2010, and the research itself is really fun! I’m sticking with really stereotypical American houses. But I don’t have high school years yet and I think I need it… it’s got so much vintage stuff from different eras.
What a fun house! Having some room to work with each decade really helps show off the style. I actually like the blue bathroom quite a bit myself (apart from the carpet, of course) -- and I guess I'm a sucker for midcentury modern, as I REALLY liked that attic. XD Good stuff!
Seeing how you talk about wasps in a video from summer 22. damn I really thought that was a south Germany issue but I’ve never seen so many wasps in my life like last summer. I also honestly developed a fear of them over that summer. Never will forget that feeling of the wasp that was chilling on my lip, I wasn’t stung but it felt as if it was trying to take cut something out of my lip. You couldn’t chill outside without at least two wasps flying around you. Eating was such an impossible task without moving across the place multiple times. And you just look like a crazy person to other ppl when you just move, walk circles and curse while trying to eat your Döner.
this was so cool, im surprised simmers don’t play about with decades more often. A whole 70s build or even just a cas version of this challenge would be awesome
I built a house and made Sims inspired by my grandparents from the 40s. And I absolutely love that one so much that I refuse to move it through gameplay. Its a time capsule.
Binging through your channel (again) whilst recovering from surgery in hospital. Thank you for keeping me going! ❤️ Can't wait to get better, go home and play more Sims! 😊
love yous so fuckin much

We love you too and also the new hair is the bomb 🔥🔥🔥🥰

It's nice to know other people had a random single chair in their kitchen.
mine is a computer office chair
It never matched the chairs anywhere else in the house either
Same I thought it was just a disabled family thing (my dad is elderly and my sister and I have chronic illness, so we sit while we’re cooking)
When phones were landlines & were mounted to the wall, and the main phone for the house was in the kitchen, we also had a random chair in the kitchen so you could sit down while you were talking on the phone.
OMIGOD WE NOT ALONE.
In the dining room we had 2, 1 in each corner.
"beige and bulky" really sums up 00s interior design so well
I distinctly remember my family owning a disgusting beige and bulky plaid armchair as a child
I remember the late 00’s really went for a Mediterranean look, especially in the kitchens. The furniture was all dark woods and bulky and there were tons of neutral tones in the fabrics and paints.
my family has a beige & bulky couch set in our basement haha

I love how it gets older as you go up, like it's been built on but backwards in time.

I didn’t realize that. That’s actually pretty cool!!

The downstairs is kind of reminding me of a pre-made Sims 3 house- in the best way possible. By this I mean it's definitely capturing the 2000s.
But sims 3 came out 2009 so it’s more 2010s and not 2000
@@Laura-gd4ku i want to say it's still 2000s like 1999 is still 90s!

As a non-native I have a hard time with accents so naturally I was so confused why Jess kept talking about something "naughty" whenever they said "90s"

J: 00's!
Me: what did the 00's look like for furniture? It just seemed 'normal' at the time, or like all jelly chairs...
J: beige.
Me: oh, yeah, actually, this is unlocking memories...
I’m working on a whole house with a family for each decade going from 1910 to 2010, and the research itself is really fun! I’m sticking with really stereotypical American houses. But I don’t have high school years yet and I think I need it… it’s got so much vintage stuff from different eras.
This was such a cool looking house. all the backyard stuff and one bedroom. This is the home of the cool aunt.
What a fun house! Having some room to work with each decade really helps show off the style. I actually like the blue bathroom quite a bit myself (apart from the carpet, of course) -- and I guess I'm a sucker for midcentury modern, as I REALLY liked that attic. XD Good stuff!
Loveeee the brown hair on you! you look amazing
Your 00s floor is MAJOR Brit nostalgia, I'm basking in the beige
Seeing how you talk about wasps in a video from summer 22. damn I really thought that was a south Germany issue but I’ve never seen so many wasps in my life like last summer. I also honestly developed a fear of them over that summer. Never will forget that feeling of the wasp that was chilling on my lip, I wasn’t stung but it felt as if it was trying to take cut something out of my lip. You couldn’t chill outside without at least two wasps flying around you. Eating was such an impossible task without moving across the place multiple times. And you just look like a crazy person to other ppl when you just move, walk circles and curse while trying to eat your Döner.
this was so cool, im surprised simmers don’t play about with decades more often. A whole 70s build or even just a cas version of this challenge would be awesome
I built a house and made Sims inspired by my grandparents from the 40s. And I absolutely love that one so much that I refuse to move it through gameplay. Its a time capsule.
It's a little harder to do an era specific exterior because most people don't build brand new houses every ten years but you totally nailed it
I probably would have chosen the avocado green bathroom set as we had that in 80s but loving everything you picked!
Binging through your channel (again) whilst recovering from surgery in hospital. Thank you for keeping me going! ❤️ Can't wait to get better, go home and play more Sims! 😊
