Can I renovate this sad apartment in The Sims 4?

i feel like decorating an apartment i'm just in one of those moods you know where i want to like run aveda sims apartment i haven't done this in a while i like go through phases of san myshuno gameplay in the sims 4 where i'm like you know what i'm going to renovate every single apartment and then i just stop playing with it for months and then i come back and i'm like yeah we're gonna do that again every single apartment again plus after eagle lifestyle came out we had a few new apartments so i was playing with those a ton and not really with this one and i like this apartment i do have some issues with it like i don't like how the windows are everywhere which is a weird issue to have because in a perfect world you would have a lot of windows like that's ideal right it's not so ideal though for this because i don't know how to change the floor plan to make it bigger like i'd like to have two bedrooms but the windows are not really in a place where that is easy should we try to make it a starter apartment it's worth only like 10 000 simoleons right now that's the fun part of apartments in the sims 4 is they're really cheap because you don't need to pay for walls things like walls and windows and like the exterior of a house that makes the house so expensive a randomized system i think she's cute we'll use her michaela coles who is a vegetarian a green fiend and paranoid truthfully um this sim could very well be me she wants to be rich though i don't know if that's my number one life priority although is that like kind of deep down everyone's number one life priority okay we have 11 000 simoleons left after i move her in i would like to have a second bedroom i feel like that is the most ideal situation i don't know how well that's gonna work out but we'll try i'm also just gonna get rid of like everything i'm sorry i have to do what i have to do we'll give her some cheaper tinier lights too i will never understand why ea builds never have a ceiling light in the bathroom it's always a wall light it's always above the sink i don't get it i hate wall lights in the sims they're good as like decoration but i don't like lighting up entire rooms with just wall lights because then the room looks so dark everything the sims team builds is so dark i hate to say it but i'm getting rid of everything these are expensive counters by the way considering it's a starter home they really went all out with the counters i would have spent my money elsewhere i think okay i deleted everything usually i don't do that but apparently i did it now let's restore the original hardwood flooring shall we what if there was two bedrooms this one is a nice room but what if the two bedrooms were sort of like this this could be a little like dining table nook sort of because these windows make it hard because i'd like to have this be straight across but you can't put a wall into the window and you can't move the windows because it's an ea build and the thing is like this would make for a way better living room like with the windows everywhere but it's gonna be a bedroom and it's smaller than this bedroom so it doesn't make sense whatever apartments are annoying how should we do this i don't want to put the kitchen in the exact same place but i feel like it maybe makes the most sense there's a empty walls here it's fitting then again like the living room could be good back there but then there's not a good wall for the kitchen what if it was like a sort of galley style kitchen like that and then we have like the dining table this is empty and useless then could make it bigger this could become two bathrooms small bathrooms but two of them huh no it's a starter home what am i doing i'm just gonna place some random furniture down as like filler test furniture you know because then we can kind of figure out how big the room needs to be all right why did i grab those chairs oh this actually kind of makes sense wait maybe there could be a desk i don't know how that's kind of a tight fit but that that could be sort of the vibe that we're going for here what if well we can make this work we could even do a smaller table and it wouldn't be a big deal but like that's kind of the layout and then the kitchen would be like we said over here i don't know if i like that all that much oh no bathroom could very well be significantly smaller just for the record so we need a bigger room we can have it let's put the k hang on let's put the kitchen in this corner sorry this is it's all a work in progress it takes a lot of fiddling but we'll get there in the end it just feels kind of ridiculous when you're doing it because you're just moving things around back and forth and like it's a mess and everything but wait that kind of works we don't have that much space for upper cabinets but that's not the end of the world there is space for dining table the issue with the upper cabinets that i was talking about is that like a clip with the window which really bugs me like doesn't that bother you it being in front of the window oh i wish i could just scoot the window over the tiniest little bit oh we could have a half bathroom oh my god this is perfect wait i actually love this i guess that'll be an ensuite then this is a little bit annoying for the person who lives in this room because then they have to go into the other room to shower but that isn't my problem it's an old apartment i do what i want with this old apartment okay it's definitely a tight layout but it works i might regret what i've just done because the rug won't fit the way i want it to because it's gonna clip with the wall oh no what if we put a built-in desk that's a little bit tight could have the half bathroom i want if we did it like this when i say half bathroom i mean like basically just an extra toilet and sink could i do that in a smaller room no no you can't do it in a smaller actually sims are pretty smart it might be functional but we'll leave it big like this i have a bathroom this shape in my house when i do this on stream my chat's always like why is it so long and they get all angry about it but like this i literally have a bathroom just like that in my house i have this i think mine's probably a little bit smaller though i bet mine is more like on the half time like i bet it's more like that you know or or less but obviously we don't have half tiles like that and the sims for walls so we could make it bigger look this is this is a possibility this is a ridiculous looking bathroom but we could do it like that and that is fully functional i don't know why i'm so like dead set on having a second bathroom we don't have the space for a second bathroom we don't have the money for a second bath ah can you tell that i'm like stalling with the decorating i'm like trying to avoid having to start decorating so anyway my day today is gonna be very interesting i'm doing a sponsored stream later this is like my third ever sponsored stream one was by the sims one was by the new harvest moon game and this one is by adobe like yes photoshop like adobe yeah so i'm very excited when i got that email i was like adobe because i use adobe literally every day i mean i've been doing it for years like if i didn't have adobe products i wouldn't have a youtube channel like it's i use it so much and then when they want to sponsor me like i never do sponsored stuff and now that's two sponsored things this week i won't do more that many more don't worry i don't get like many sponsorship offers it's just kind of weird and funny timing that they both were this week because i had a zillow sponsored video this weekend i'm just not used to um being offered exciting things like this so i was so excited about it i do get sponsorship offers but for the most part they're like super dumb and things that i would never actually do like for games that i would never play and games that you would never play so like i would never actually like do the sponsor but i don't know this week something's in the water or something oh how about that dark blue ooh we need different couches i like the idea of this house not looking like a starter home but being a starter home does that make sense oh those are expensive probably going to be a mistake i'm going to regret putting these down but anyway that's kind of the goal that i'm aiming for here is a house that looks really expensive but is actually a starter that coffee table is way too fancy for this it has no business being that fancy i'm gonna regret putting that tv too but it's a nice tv i want the the expensive things in my house i want an expensive house i might have to go for some slightly cheaper furniture in the bedrooms now that i think about it we maybe have gone a bit over our heads it's fine we'll do some like casual bedroom furniture i think i might be accidentally trying to do a base game house obviously we can use city living too because it's in san myshuno so you have to have city living to use this but i may have accidentally tried to make this base game we might as well just commit at this point like i'll just keep it base game expensive bookshelf is it worth it i don't know i think it is i would prefer to have two nightstands in here like that makes the most sense it's more practical like that's what you would probably have if you lived in this house but i think it might be too much like next to the dresser i feel like there's too much furniture in that corner so i'm gonna do just one we'll save a little bit of money that way and if we have some extra some extra money at the end we can go back and change it to have two but it does look way more expensive than it is doesn't it i think that's so funny i think to an extent like most starter homes kind of look the same obviously there's like some variance there but when you build a starter home you're kind of stuck with like the cheapest furniture options there isn't really that much room to to mess around and like deviate from that so this one's kind of fun let's put some exposed brick in here maybe i'll delete that little wall too yeah i like the exposed brick in there i don't know i feel like it adds something and we need something should i pick a smaller table like does it make more sense to have a round table in here maybe i like the bigger one too i know you like the bigger one too probably i think we have to have one bathroom it's a real shame i think it has to happen do you know what thinking like realistically about this layout i feel like it's kind of practical like there's a spot to hang your coats but also when you come in there's a table right here so you can put your keys down like it kind of makes sense sims don't have keys though so it's not exactly the biggest deal if they don't have a spot for their keys i need to put a kid's bedroom in here before i forget we need to do that too i'm gonna try and make it like not necessarily specifically a kid's bedroom i'm just gonna make it like a bedroom that could sleep a teen or a child i always feel like that's the most practical for things like this this is a sad room and i'm running out of money so i don't know if i can do much else there are always things we can change like the tv i picked is really expensive so it doesn't have to be that way oh i don't have a trash can oh no i've done a bad job i'm sitting here being like look at how expensive my house looks everybody am i doing a great job or what may not have enough money for anything oh i'm so stupid i always go overboard in the beginning it's okay you you aim high and then you remove items it's just the way it is that works i need to no i need to rearrange the room it doesn't work can i get a dresser then if i do it like this 470. that's fine it's not ideal i don't have any wall decorations anywhere either all we have is this cork board there's like no personality in this i feel like that's a problem that i have with a lot of my builds like full transparency i know i'm not good at this i try to build these houses that like could appeal to anybody and then in the process i've built these houses that nobody wants because they're just like plain sad beige houses oh i can't even afford an easel oh no my cat's on her cat tree my cat never goes in the one in here she like scratches the bottom half but she's scratching up top on it right now she went into the cubby she has a cat tree downstairs that she likes better but i got her one in my office so she would hang out and like sit up there in my office she hangs out here in a lot anyway but she's on the floor or like underneath my desk she got off of it again it's fine we had a good run does that match that wallpaper i think it kind of does we actually saved money on that too i don't want to put any wall decorations in there because it's always going to go away when you put the walls on cutaway so it's not worth putting decorations in there if we're gonna decorate we should put it like in the room where you can actually see it clutter is expensive like those books 45 simoleons and for what like you can't even maybe if instead of that bookcase we put just a regular table in here and then we put one of the little book thingies on top of it oh it doesn't place in like a nice normal spot oh we could put that on the dresser oh and we'll put like a mirror above this yeah that seems fine to me yeah it's not great we still don't have any skill building items maybe we could put an easel in this room for the kid what if we aimed more blue instead wait this wallpaper is cheaper how it's like fancier look okay yes please i will take a house full of my fancy wallpaper how is that even possible yeah we scrounged up a bunch more money this way it was worth it maybe we could get uh some sort of art on the wall look how small that is no nothing's gonna fit the way i want it to like that does not look how i want it to because i want to center it by the sofa but i also want it to be on the wall center so like where do we just not put one like what are you meant to do i'm just like scanning like where else can i put things what else can be put in here i have 400 simoleons how much better could i afford a better computer if i tried 1440 uh i think i think we've done it this does not look like a starter home it's just because of how it's furnished it's small enough for you to be like yeah that's a starter home but the way it's furnished it looks better how much is it worth let me delete the walls apartments are so weird like you have to delete walls to upload it as a room 21 960 wait that's not correct oh no how much money did she start with like i got scammed i just used how much money she had on her i guess it's 21 960s and technically if you had two sims living here you'd have 22k and it is a house for two sims so it's fine however i don't understand how this happened fancy starter apartment this was supposed to be less than 20k but somehow i messed up sorry is that worth saying and how are you meant to write gallery descriptions this is like an honest question i don't know like best practices for gallery descriptions because i don't want to sit here and be like this elegant family apartment you know has crown molding which is like how real houses are described but on the gallery i just i don't know i don't know i can't be bothered to try so i'm just gonna upload it like this feel free to download it oh first comment the thing about apartments is that to download them you actually have to do it in a sort of weird way you can't just download the lot and like place it on the lot like you would a regular house because it's not technically a lot so if you want to download this you have to be in build mode in the apartment you want to live in and then when you go to the gallery this isn't these are my old builds why does the gallery like show it in the wrong order sometimes then you go to the gallery what nifty knitting what i didn't excuse me i didn't use these items eco lifestyle i didn't use these items what kind of scam is this do you see that it's oh this is the wrong that wasn't the right apartment okay i'm sorry that was it was that it's a completely different apartment i'm sorry that was a false alarm um i'm embarrassed anyway to download this um you want to make sure you got a bunch of money and then you'll place it and then you just got to put it in the right spot you know and it'll place it down and you'll see i had to delete the walls where the doors go all you got to do is put the wall back i did that so that the game would think it's all one room so that i could upload it to the gallery and then you just put the walls back and then put the the paint colors back on so it's a little bit annoying because you can't just like plop it down and be ready but you can't upload apartments to the gallery so you have to do it that way i still feel really embarrassed about what i just did i'm sitting here like i didn't use nifty knitting what kind of fool do you think i am sims for and i i clicked on the wrong apartment oh i need to go i'll see you guys tomorrow by the way and i don't mean to be dramatic but i'm getting kind of close to a million subscribers like as of today i'm at 980 000 subscribers um that's kind of close to a million if you want to subscribe like you could totally do that it's free i would get a plaque uh thank you goodbye
