Another great article, Orion and fun to read. I love to hear that men decorate, too.

Nice article. I think the starter packs are a great value for someone new to Home. I got the original starter pack with the Paris Tower apartment when it first came out.

The decorating ideas were helpful and the Lake Cabin is still one of my favorite spaces in Home.

Now I just need to figure out what to do with the Wizard’s Den I got free when I bought it. :/

Stephie, thank you for your comments. The goal of my article was twofold: One, to get people to think creatively about decorating with the items that are available as rewards (including limited time rewards which many may have), free in the store and items available in packages in the PlayStation Store. Two, to provide information about some of the packages in the PS Store that people may not be aware that they even exist, since it is separate from Home.

Thank you for catching my inadvertent math error.

This space was the second one I bought in Home, the Waterfall being the first. I liked the fact that it was a dusk setting to contrast the dawn setting of the Waterfall. It is a beautiful space and fun to decorate, though I wish it had a more private area for a bedroom, which makes it a bit of a challenge but not one that can’t be tackled. All in all it is a nice place and I would buy it again. Good review Orion.

Ooh…it automatically upgraded my smiley to something I didn’t intend. LOL…sorry, I’m not making mad faces at people over here!

Hmm…the tweet about this article was slightly misleading. I clicked thinking it was a review of the value packs, but it’s mostly about how the author decorated HIS space. Some of the items are no longer available and the Welcome Back Package is no longer free. It’s a nice look, but for $15 in value packs and a Welcome Back Package that would cost much more if it were purchased now, the doesn’t exactly speak to one looking for a good value.

BTW…math needs some double-checking! $4.49 x 2 does not equal $9.98 last time I checked.

The Lakeside Log Cabin is likewise my favorite personal estate as well. I’m a sucker for rustic, nature-themed spaces, and this one, to me, is a perfect example of the Home Goldilocks Theory: just the right size for the current item limit. It’s not a monster of an estate, and it’s also not an exercise in shoehorning like Primarch’s Vigilarium.

This is a nice well written review of the Log Cabin. I may be prejudiced in that it’s still my favorite space.

While I do wish I had room for 1 to 3 more items, it’s not a difficult space to decorate although I suppose that might depend on what one wants to do with it.

I enjoyed this article.
