Grammaw's Cookie Jar was play tested on a fully-patched base game and works with no expansion or stuff packs installed. Compatible with 1.33 and 1.34 patches. Might work with lower patch levels, but no testing was done below patch 1.33.
I cloned and revised the mesh of the Crocks O'Stuff kitchen clutter object, smallenating it from three jars to one and reducing its footprint to a single tile, and nipping and tucking the shape until I was happy. Bye-bye ugly mushroom stencil! I replaced all the EAxis stencils with 4 new ones. One of the cookie jars has no stencil at all, which will provide much joy for the stencil-haters out there (you know who you are). I reduced the price and the environment score to reflect that. The cookie jar has three CASTable channels. Now for some pictures.
My favorite jar, which says Cookies in Simlish:

All the variously varied variations:

No stencil on this jar, for your full recoloring pleasure:

Thanks To: Delphy, Inge & Peter Jones, Orangemittens for her tutorials, MarcusSims91 for his excellent advice on speculars, Wes Howe for MS plugins, Armiel for Builder's Island, SIMale for the Simlish font, and apologies to anyone I forgot to credit.
This is a new mesh, and means that it's a brand new self contained object that usually does not require a specific Pack (although this is possible depending on the type). It may have Recolours hosted on MTS - check below for more information.

Install Instructions
1. Click the file listed on the Files tab to download the file to your computer.
2. Extract the zip, rar, or 7z file. Now you will have either a .package or a .sims3pack file.
For Package files:
1. Cut and paste the file into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods\Packages folder. If you do not already have this folder, you should read the full guide to Package files first: Sims 3:Installing Package Fileswiki, so you can make sure your game is fully patched and you have the correct Resource.cfg file.
2. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).
For Sims3Pack files:
1. Cut and paste it into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Downloads folder. If you do not have this folder yet, it is recommended that you open the game and then close it again so that this folder will be automatically created. Then you can place the .sims3pack into your Downloads folder.
2. Load the game's Launcher, and click on the Downloads tab. Find the item in the list and tick the box beside it. Then press the Install button below the list.
3. Wait for the installer to load, and it will install the content to the game. You will get a message letting you know when it's done.
4. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).
Extracting from RAR, ZIP, or 7z: You will need a special program for this. For Windows, we recommend 7-Zip and for Mac OSX, we recommend Keka. Both are free and safe to use.
