How to Sell Fabricated Items with Business & Hobbies Pack

If you want to sell crafted items like furniture, candles, or decor that your Sim makes using the Fabrication skill, here’s a step-by-step on how to turn it into a home-based business using the Business & Hobbies Pack (plus Eco Lifestyle for Fabrication):


🏡 Setting Up Your Home Business

Step 1: Level Up Fabrication

  • Build your Sim’s Fabrication Skill (Eco Lifestyle).
  • Use the Fabricator to craft furniture, candles, and décor items.
  • Recycle objects around the neighbourhood to get Bits and Pieces (the crafting currency).

Step 2: Activate Home Business Mode (Business & Hobbies Pack)

  • On your home lot, enable Home Business Mode (from the business tablet or management system included in the pack).
  • Set your business name, hours, and item categories.

Step 3: Display and Stock Items

  • Place the fabricated items in your home’s sale area.
  • Use provided sales tables, shelves, or counters (from the pack) to showcase products.
  • Set individual prices or use global pricing (mark-up %).

Step 4: Open for Customers

  • Start your business hours (you can open/close manually).
  • NPC customers will visit your home lot, browse, and buy.
  • Your Sim can use sales interactions (greet, pitch, answer questions) to boost sales.

Step 5: Manage Finances

  • Use the business dashboard to track profits, losses, and inventory.
  • Restock popular items or try new designs.
  • As you succeed, you can upgrade to handle higher customer flow or expand your product range!
