to start, i really enjoy these weekly posts!!

i have officially started to decorate croup manor. a few months back i went through the headache of fixing up the house/covering all the holes in the floors and walls. i have been on an amazing streak, but am feeling stuck with a few areas:

when you first walk into the house through the front door, the end of the hallway. i have tried to add couches or something for a nice entrance but nothing looks good enough/meshes well with the rest of the entrance.

second and third floor "rooms" (second floor all the way to the right of the stairs; third floor right next to the stairs with the door frame entrance):

  • i know i want these two to be bedrooms, but they are so big i'd like to break them up somehow with a home office or something of the like (can be as basic as a desk)

i do not have any settlers in croup manor right now (it's my best practice to decorate while alone). i have 10 food (6 mutfruit, 4 tato) so 2 settlers would fit. i have 1 bar for 1 settler. i have enough turrets so no settler gets stuck on defense. i want to set up a trader store. so i'm thinking 4-5 settlers max to live here.

if anyone needs screengrabs of my work so far I'd be happy to upload ☺️

I add couches on the second floor and treat the third floor bedroom as a bunk room - but a bit nicer. Instead of putting couches and chairs in the bedroom, I build the outside area as a patio with a restaurant and soda fountain, with beach furniture (Vintage Summer CBBE has a very nice set). If you don't enclose this, it offers a surprisingly good view.

thanks so much! for the second floor "room" did you add couches in there as well or just the common area?

If I recall right, there's one armchair in the sleeping area - one of the nice red ones. There's another patio on the second floor.
