I recolored Chrissie's amazing Saratoga Living Room Set from www.pimpmysims.com in 4 color sets: Velvet Sage, Camel Suede, Wheat Linen and Canvas White. Each set includes the following:
Large Sofa, Apartment Sofa, Chair, Ottoman
-From Chrissie's Saratoga set- mesh is included in download as permitted by the pimpmysims website: "You may only offer the meshes in addition to your recolors, if they are marked with the symbol on the right." I added a link to the mesh below also but you don't need to download anything from there.
Coffee Table, Sofa Table, Bookcase, Side Table
-From Chrissie's Saratoga set- same as above. The colors are in a dark wood "coffee maple" tone.
Curtain
-Recolored from Simaddict99's Sophia Single Curtain mesh. The mesh is a pay item from www.thesimsresource.com which you need to download. I understand that not everyone has access to that so I included a different set by Pacin from MTS2 for people who want it (explained as 'extra' below).
Painting
-Recolored from Maxis Rolling Hills painting. The paintings are based on those at Crate & Barrel (one of my favorite stores, the Saratoga set is based on Crate & Barrel furniture too).
Wallpaper
-Made by me- has a linen texture.
Extra: Free Curtain Recolor Option
There is also an extra curtain set to download for those of you who don't have access to TSR. They are recolors of Pacin's Ring Drapes. I used the same fabrics as the Sophia curtains and changed the rod and rings to brushed silver. You need to download the mesh.
*Important! The seating legs and baskets in the bookcase did not show up as a recolor option when I created the recolor files so I extracted the TXMT, MMAT, and TXTR and recolored them to dark wood for the legs and a different texture for the baskets. I tried everything to make them show up only in my recolors but they unfortunately either overwrote the mesh colors or didn't work at all (i.e changing names, family, etc.). Frankly, I got sick of working on it for 4 full days so I set them up so that they will overwrite the default and don't want to mess with them anymore. I hope this isn't a big deal for most people. I love dark wood so prefer the legs to be dark wood standard. I included a picture for those of you who want to see the original versus my recolor. If this is a big deal for you, please do not download this set. Thanks!
