This is a mesh replacement for the "Frost de Fleur Bud Vase" from the base game. It uses the mesh that Michelle made for the first part of her base game plant recolors. You can go to that thread to see a picture comparing recolors of the original Frost de Fleur Bud Vase to recolors of the replacement.

When making the mesh, Michelle used the flowers from the Frost de Fleur, but slaved the vase to the vase used by the Sunflowers. So, when adding (or making) recolors for this default replacement, use recolors for the Sunflowers for the vase and recolors for the Frost de Fleur for the flowers.

Making the replacement work while keeping the vase and flowers recolorable required a CEP Extra, so there are three files in the rar, but only the one labeled "DEFAULT" goes in the Downloads folder.
Install instructions for the CEP Extra files:
dharden_CEP-Extra_FrostdeFleur_DR-ProgamFiles.package must be placed in C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES\The Sims 2\TSData\Res\Catalog\zCEP-EXTRA

dharden_CEP-Extra_FrostdeFleur_DR-Documents.package must be placed in \Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\zCEP-EXTRA

Notes: If you used a compilation to install The Sims 2, the compilation's full name (e.g., "The Sims 2 Double Deluxe") will probably be used in both Documents and Program Files. In Program Files, the base-game folder should be located under that folder, and be named "Base". Once you find that, the path to the "zCEP-EXTRA" folder should be the same. Also, 64-bit versions of Windows use "Program Files (x86)" for 32-bit programs, while 32-bit versions only have "Program Files".

Because the vase subset in the replacement mesh is slaved to the vase for the Sunflowers, existing vase recolors for the Frost de Fleur Bud Vase will not work once this default replacement is installed.
