Decor with a Purpose: Bathroom Cabinets
These bathroom cabinets don’t do anything on their own, but if you have some of my other mods installed they can do a variety of things! Be sure to read the details to know what mods will work with this!
These are overrides for EA items, giving them custom tuning. It shouldn't conflict with anything unless you have something else that happens to modify these objects specifically, but please let me know if you have any problems with it.
- Basegame Bathroom Shelf - Shower Supplies, Towels *
- Basegame Bathroom Cabinet - Shower Supplies, Lotion, Tissues*
- Basegame Bathroom Ottoman - Shower Supplies, Towels
- Jungle Adventure Bathroom Cabinet - Shower Supplies, Lotion, Sunblock, Towels*
- Parenthood Bathroom Cabinet - Shower Supplies, Towels, Lotion, Perfume
- Seasons Bathroom Cabinet - Shower Supplies, Towels, Lotion, Perfume*
- Tiny Living Bathroom Shelf - Shower Supplies, Towels
Update 3/21/23:
- Added additional options to a few objects that have closed cabinets you can't see into (after all, anything could be in there!)
- Added slots/additional slots to some objects. There is a chance that this change will cause problems if you're using any existing slots on the objects. If your sims have anything valuable on them you may want to move them before updating.
- Adjusted tags for consistency
- Added a retail fix for the Tiny Living shelf
- Removed custom thumbnails to bring down file size and save myself some work going forward
- Made an addon for an Eco Lifestyle shelf that looks like a bathroom shelf to me, but isn't explicitly one from the objects on it so I made it optional.
- Removed the Functional Shower Supplies TUNING_ONLY file. It's a pain to manage. Please delete that file if you're using it and install the actual Functional Shower Supplies mod.
- I've realized that having Separate, Merged, and Merged by pack was probably confusing so I’m slowly updating all my mods to use a new structure.
- So that means that starting with v1.4 the Separate download has been discontinued.
- Now there are two downloads: Merged and ByPack.
- Merged contains all objects in one file.
- ByPack contains a TUNING file and one file per pack. You can pick and choose the packs you have/want
- Each download also contains a file explaining this. - Please delete your existing files and redownload one of the new zips because the renamed files won’t overwrite the old ones.
Past Updates:
Update 4/24/22:
- Updated Shower Supplies tuning file to match current version. Remember that you don't need it if you have the full Functional Shower Supplies mod installed.
- Updated Shower Supplies tuning file to match current version. Remember that you don't need it if you have the full Functional Shower Supplies mod installed.
- Updated Shower Supplies tuning file to match current version. Remember that you don't need it if you have the full Functional Shower Supplies mod installed.
- Brand new search functionality! I'm slowly adding hidden tags to my objects so you can find them by searching for "Ilex" (that's an uppercase i at the beginning if you can't tell). In English you can also search for "Tissue" and have the cabinet containing a tissue box come up.
- Fixed a bug with the slots I added to the shelf. Turns out those were shared so I had to split it off to keep them from appearing on other objects.
- Removed all objects from where I had categorized them in Showers. Realized it made more sense to add them all to the Bathroom Accents category so I did that.
- Added some slots to the Basegame shelf. 9 small, 1 medium, and 1 large on top (overlapping so you can use them all at once) and 1 small in the middle.
- Added custom thumbnails to all objects so you can tell at a glance where they came from.
- Updated to work with the latest version of my Tissue Box mod
- Changed how the merged folder is organized for ease of updates. If you install by merged pack you'll now need to include a required tuning file. Please delete your old files to make sure no old code ends up overwriting the new. I'm going to organize the rest of my mods this way going forward and as I make updates. It's better than having to do a bunch of merges just because I update one line in the tuning.
- Uploaded the most recent tuning for Functional Shower Supplies (sorry I forgot to do that before the holidays)
- Updated to work with the most recent update to my alpha bath towels mod just in case you're testing that
- Renamed the tuning file in the "Separate" zip for consistency. Please delete the old one to avoid conflicts.
- Updated the Tiny Living shelf to remain visible if the walls are down. Normally I wouldn't because it could get in the way, but bathrooms are so small that it can be hard to use wall objects.
- Uploaded the most recent tuning for Functional Shower Supplies
IMPORTANT! You must have at least one of these mods installed to have functionality on these objects!
- Functional Shower Supplies
- Functional Tissue Box
- Functional Perfume and Cologne
- Functional Lotion
- Functional Sunblock
- Functional Bath Towels
Addon
EL Bathroom Cabinet
- This Eco Lifestyle shelf looks like a bathroom shelf to me, but it isn't explicitly one from the objects on it so I made it optional. It works with Shower Supplies, Lotion, & Sunblock.
Future plans
- If you know of an item I missed let me know
- If you think any additional functionality makes sense on some of these let me know. I just used my own judgement of what the various bottles look like when deciding.

About Me
---
- If you're an object creator and want to use any of my tuning you totally can. Just link people to my stuff to download it (rather than including it in your download) and send me a link to your work if you want me to share it.
- Don't upload my content anywhere without asking me. I may give permission to my translators to share my mods where they'll be more accessible to non-English speaking players.
I have a Patreon if you want to donate and support me, but none of my functionality mods are locked behind a paywall.
If you want to test my mods in early access, become a translator, or just join my little community you can join my Discord server. The server is also typically the best way to get in touch with me if you have a question or problem.
