Creating a warm and inviting atmosphere in your home is crucial to making it feel like a place you can truly call your own. Without a touch of personality, any house can look sterile and uninviting.
When it comes to designing your Sims 4 home, achieving that cozy, “lived-in” feeling can be a bit of a challenge. But there’s one key element that can make all the difference: clutter.
By strategically placing items like boots by the front door, coats hanging in the entryway, and a neat pile of shirts atop a dresser, you can create a space that feels like it’s truly inhabited by someone who plans to stay awhile.
While The Sims 4 base game offers a few options for adding clutter to your builds, there are plenty of custom content clutter sets available to help you take your design to the next level. And in this article, we’ll be exploring all the different types of clothing clutter you can use to infuse your Sims’ homes with personality and charm.
1. Rainy Day Clutter
Wet weather can put a damper on anyone’s day, but with the right gear, your Sims can weather any storm – figuratively speaking, of course. We all know that too much wind and rain can quickly turn into a hurricane, and that’s definitely not fun.
But, with the right clothes, your Sims can jump in puddles and play in the mud without a care in the world. However, forget about canvas shoes and hoodies – those won’t cut it.
That’s where this amazing CC set comes in! It includes everything your Sims need to show off their rainy day style, while also serving as functional decor for their homes.
This set takes the clothing items from the Seasons expansion pack and turns them into decorative items, allowing you to match your Sim’s decor to their actual clothing. You’ll find a range of wall-mounted coats and hats to choose from, as well as some hats that can be placed on tables or shelves.
And don’t forget about the boots! This set includes adult, child, and toddler versions, with dozens of swatches available for each. You’ll love the adorable sight of those tiny toddler boots, and your Sims will appreciate having a functional and stylish place to store their wet weather gear. So why not add some rainy day clutter to your living room, foyer, or porch and make those dreary days a little brighter?
2. Sole Mates Shoe Clutter
Shoe clutter can be a bit of a necessary evil if you don’t have the space for a dedicated shoe tree or shelving. Most of us are left with our shoes lined up or piled in a corner. But, there’s no denying that shoes can add a cozy touch to any room.
Luckily, RAVASHEEN has come to the rescue with their amazing shoe clutter CC set. With 23 pairs to choose from, your Sims will have plenty of options to help create that at-home feeling.
From sneakers to cowboy boots, loafers to heels, this set has it all. There’s something to fit every Sim’s style and personality, and the variety of options will make it easy to find the perfect pair to complement any decor.
So why not add a touch of shoe clutter to your Sim’s home and make it feel even cozier?
3. Retro Vibe Hanging Coat
If you’re someone who likes to keep things organized and tidy, you’ve probably heard the phrase “a place for everything and everything in its place.” It’s a great philosophy to live by, but sometimes it can be difficult to find a place for everything, especially in The Sims 4.
Thankfully, with the help of CC, we can add some functional and stylish touches to our builds, like this amazing Retro Vibe Hanging Coat.
This simple yet elegant coat looks worn but still has a classic look that will add a touch of retro charm to any room. And the best part is, you don’t need a coat rack or hanger to use it – just hang it on the wall and you’re good to go!
Choose a color that complements your decor and enjoy the added touch of tidiness and order to your Sim’s home. Who knows, maybe a stuff pack focused on clutter and organization will be released in the future, but until then, this CC will do the trick.
4. Folded Clothes
