Good Afternoon/Morning :smiley:

Since the pts went live, I have spent a long time playing around with housing and furnishings. I recorded and made videos of some of my house decorating, and some friends have suggested that I share them on here, for those who cannot get onto the pts so that they can see how it works, so rather reluctantly... I have obliged :lol:

Enjoy! :blush:

    You are extremely talented at decorating. Thanks for posting these. I'm glad your friends talked you into it. I think it will help many people, myself included, since any house I may get won't be a big one. You've demonstrated how to make the most of the space available. :smile:

    That looks great!

    Hey question for you as i won't have time to dl the pts, are there chamber pots in the game? I want to decorate my small apartment with just chamber-pots, ideally full ones with flies buzzing around them (dunmer just roll that way i guess). Anyway, I didn't see them in the menu, but i really want all those buzzing flies, a sound you can smell.

    I don't believe there are any actual chamber pots, though there are certain urns and cauldrons which look allot like them, no flies though, unfortunately :lol:

    These videos are wonderful and very inspirational. Using footlockers to make a staircase, wouldn't have thought of it, and it looks really good. :)

    I am unsure, most of what was in there was crafted (aside from the imperial house which furishings seem to be crown store only :neutral: ) but tonight I will have a look and see how many materials it takes to furnish a house :blush:

    Argh, those step stones to make a stairs, you don't know how much effort it costs me. You make it seem so easy xD.

    Thanks again for these great videos. Any plans on decorating a Redguard house?

    I plan to do all of the racial style houses, but was going to save the Redguard one until last because I am really looking forward to it. The Redguard buildings are beautiful, and their furnishings are my favourite :smile:

    and now decorate the outside area :wink:

    I would loved to have, and did start putting in trees etc. until I realised that I only had room for about 20 more items :lol:

    They need to increase the amount of stuff we can have in the larger houses! It takes almost a quarter of the items we are allowed just in lighting in some of them, so you don't have to live in the dark... :neutral:

    Luckily the house that I will be buying seems to get allot of natural light, and doesn't have so many huge open spaces, so I got to spend allot of time in the garden there :smile:

    Great work as always. :)

    Nice use of the huge stone bench. I tried to put it somewhere outside, but there was not right location for it.

    And the Redguard style really has the best cooking station. I guess for all that kebab, they do need that big BBQ table. XD

    A couple of people asked if I would decorate The Foraken Stronghold for them. I wasn't really looking forward to it at first, its so huge and open and DARK. It was... Challenging, especially with pieces of furniture going missing and weird things happening with the lighting in houses today, but I got through it in the end :joy:

    I was stuck for ages trying to decorate the medium Argonian house, but whatever I did it just looked kind of meh... but then I found the boat, sneakily disguised as a tent, and what is the first thing you think of when you see a boat? A boat bed, of course! :lol:

    For some obscure reason, the boat also made me think of Tangled, the moment when Rapunzel and Flynn Rider are in the boat surrounded by all of those paper lanterns (hence all of the wedding lamps :lol: ) and then I didn't feel stuck for ideas anymore :blush:

    This video perfectly highlights the stupid new way the lighting has worked since the last patch, I really hope it is reverted soon... It's horrible :disappointed:
