The Country Homestead Event to unlock furniture is back for 10 days from the 28th June. To unlock all the country homestead furniture packs you need to complete the woodworking hobby collection 10 times in the 10 day time limit! Once you unlock a furniture pack you get to keep it even if you don’t find them all. If you have never done the woodworking hobby click here for details.
If you completed it last time you will not get this event again. If you won some of the packs last time then you will only have to unlock the ones you have left, for example, if you unlocked 5 packs last time you will only have 5 packs left to unlock this time.
You need to buy a woodworking bench from the promotions r us store to complete this (or use the ones at the community center)
You need to firstly accept this event, it will remove the woodwork pieces you have already created from the collection so you don’t get a head start.
If you say no you can start it from the active tasks goal tab:
You won’t get extra time if you start this late
YOU NEED TO COMPLETE ALL FOUR ROWS (FIND ALL 12 ITEMS) TO GET ONE FURNITURE PACK!!
TIPS FOR FINDING THEM ALL IN THE TIME LIMIT:
-have more than one sim working on it (the shortest option is 5 hours)
-have at least one sim at level 6 or working on getting to level 6 if you haven’t done the hobby before so all pieces are unlocked then you can just keeping doing the 5 hour option over and over (if you have completed this hobby before you don’t need a sim to reach level 6 in this hobby again!) -remember to click start new collection on the woodworking hobby collection once you have got all the pieces so you can find them again -don’t panic! They will bring it back again if you don’t manage to complete it this time, these events usually reappear a lot! -most importantly: just keep going! I know it’s annoying when you get the same one constantly but you will eventually get the ones you need.

LEVEL UNLOCKS: 17 UNLOCKS: 2-5 storys, stairs and firepoles TIME LIMIT: 6 days PRIZE: elevators and escalators pack
YOU NEED TO COMPLETE THE AN ALIEN CONCEPT: WEATHER MACHINES QUEST BEFORE YOU CAN BEGIN THIS QUEST
Completing this quest allows you to add extra floors to your houses! If you complete in the 6 day time limit you will unlock the elevators and escalators pack! You can still complete this quest once the time limit is up to add extra floors to your houses but you won’t get the escalators or elevators
There are two versions of this quest, the first one should be correct for most players but if the goals aren’t the ones you have, click here to view version two
Version One
Times may vary depending on the star rating an item has.
Build the community center- time and price may vary (need more money?)
time and price varies depending on how many businesses you have already but these are the requirements I had
Send a sim to the community center
Talk to wumples- 2 minutes (at community center)
Press look upstairs button while at the community center (pulsing button in top right hand corner)
Call home store hotline using phone: call hotline- 9 hours (this goal appears twice in this quest so if you make two sims do this option at different houses and leave one of them at that house until you get this goal for the second time you can save yourself 9 hours as it will complete the goal as soon as you go to that house)
Have 3 sims dancing to stereo (task completes straight away)
QUEST IS COMPLETE!
You can now add up to 5 floors to your house- a second floor costs 300,000, a third floor costs 500,000, a fourth floor costs 800,000 and a fifth floor costs 1,000,000!
You will also be able to complete the Woodworking hobby using the benches at the community center
You unlock stairs and firepoles even if you don’t finish the quest in time
Once you complete the patio, balcony and basement quests you will unlock 4 more stairs:
Time Limited Prize: Elevators and Escalators
Is the prize worth it? Yes, there are some really nice elevators and escalators available but you do have to buy them, it also is quite tricky to complete the quest within the time limit especially if it takes you ages to save up and build the community center.
Where can I find them? In the stairs section of the home store.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS QUEST
please read before asking
I have missed this quest! Why can’t I start it yet?
You cannot miss main quests they have to be completed in order. You need to complete all previous quests (list can be found here) and reach level 17 before you can start this quest
Can I complete this quest even though I have passed level 17?
Yes, you just need to complete all previous quests then this quest will start automatically
Why are there two versions of this quest?
Some quests have two versions, as when the makers have updated the times for quests they haven’t updated them on all devices so some players still get the old times
I can’t afford the community center, how can I earn more simoleons? This post may help
The game says I have to complete the multi story renovations quest to be able to build the community center, what is the problem?
There is no problem, you have to start the multi story quest and the first goal is to build the community center so you cannot build it until you get that first goal in the quest
How do I send my sim to the community center?
Go to the community center and click on the whistle next to a sim who isn’t busy on the simtracker, this post explains more about the simtracker
I don’t understand what you mean when you say you can do both call the home store/ hotline goals at once to save time?
This goal appears twice so it is like being able to start a goal early that you have access to (read the question below if you don’t understand this) to do this you need two sims and two different houses:
1- When you get the goal to call home store you can set sim 1 to do the task
2- In a different house which you need to stay away from until you get the second goal you can have sim 2 also do the task
3- When sim 1 is done you complete the goal the first time
4- Wait until you get the goal again to call home store and you can go to sim 2 to complete it straight away!
What do you mean when you say a goal can be started early?
Any goal that you can normally do can be started early because you will have access to it and any goal that you can’t normally do you will have to wait until you get the goal to be able to complete it
The tip with this method is to put the sim doing that action early in a different house that you cannot go to until you get that goal or it will not work
Does it matter if the banana bread burns? Will the goal still complete?
The goal will still complete even if it causes a fire
I crafted the 1st set of woodworking items before I got the task to, my game now won’t complete the goal, what should I do?
You will need to find the next 3 items in the second row to complete this goal
What do I get if I complete this quest in the time limit?
Elevators and escalators
What happens if I don’t complete in the time limit, can I still finish this quest?
Yes you have to finish it to unlock the ability to add up to 5 floors to your houses as well as unlocking stairs and firepoles before you can move onto the next quest
I didn’t complete in the time limit, can I restart the quest?
No, you cannot redo quests
Can I still get the prize if I don’t complete in the time limit?
No, the only way to get the limited time prizes is by completing the quest in the time limit
I don’t like this quest! Can I just skip it?
No, you have to complete this quest before you can move onto the next one
I completed the quest but I cannot place stairs, why?
Firstly make sure you have rooms upstairs and also give this post a read, it explains how to add stairs to a house
Some times are slightly different on my game, why is this?
Times may vary depending on the star rating of the item you are using, as the higher star rating an item has the quicker you will complete a goal
Some times are really off/ different goals show for me, why is this? This will be because the quest has been updated recently, I try my best to keep these posts up to date but it is difficult as I cannot redo every quest each time the game is updated. If you notice any changes please let me know so I can update the post
The next quest is Teenagers so you can age your preteens to teenagers!
WOODWORKING BENCH – ADULT SIMS ONLY – PRIZES: DOG KENNEL, FOOSBALL TABLE and 3LP
Only Adults can complete the woodworking hobby, to begin this hobby you need to buy the woodworking bench from the promotions r us store and place it in one of your sims houses or you can use the benches at the community center once you have completed the Multi Story Renovations Quest.
I cannot find it in my home store to place it? You need to look in your inventory under the hobby and career items section
I cannot place the woodworking bench, it says its locked/ limited item, what do I do? You will have this problem if you try and place it from the new items tab, look in your inventory instead to be able to place the woodworking bench in one of your sims houses.
You can buy as many as you want so you can have as many adult sims as you want completing this hobby at once
Once placed tap on it and select one of the options:
Quick Practice- 5 hours
Carve Magnum Opus- 12 hours 30 minutes
After the time has passed come back and click the exclamation mark above your sims head, you may get a woodworking collectible straight away or have to play the mini game if your sim made a doll:
The doll will run to the pipes on the machinery to the left of the screen- your sim will rush to a window. You need to get the doll to the window your sim is at, if it is going the wrong way you can tap on it to change the dolls direction (you will only get this minigame if you complete the hobby at the community center, if you do it at home you don’t need to chase the dolls!)
Every time you complete one of the options above your woodworking hobby skill level up percentage will increase, once you reach 100% you will level up, there are 6 levels. You need to reach level 6 to be able to unlock all of the woodworking collectibles, once unlocked you will be able to find them.
The table below shows the level up percentage for each option:
This may change in future updates
NOTE: if you are completing a woodworking time limited hobby event the percentage increases quicker during these events than the normal amounts shown in the table below
LEVEL

12 hours 30 minutes

For example if you did the 12 hour 30 minute option, you would need to do this 5 times or the 5 hour option 17 times to reach level 3 from level 2.
The table below shows you for each level what woodworking collectibles you unlock (so you can then find those ones too) and also the level up reward that a second and future sims will receive when they level up in this hobby:

NOTE: only the first sim completing this hobby needs to get to level 6 to unlock all the collectibles, future sims will be able to find any collectible even if they are only on level 1 in this hobby (and they can do the shortest option to try and find the collectibles quicker!)
You won’t find a new collectible each time, you will get repeats, if this happens just keep going, you will find them eventually! If it is still taking too long you can use the lucky spin on the row where you cannot find the item, this will cost LPs, when you click on the LP button it will clear the row and give you a random collectible on that row so you aren’t guaranteed a new item (you will get back any other collectibles you already had in that row) Need to earn some LPs to use the lucky spin?
The completed woodworking collection is shown below, once you complete the collection you need to click ‘start a new collection’ at the top of the hobby collection screen, this clears the board so you can complete the collection again to earn more rewards (you will only get the option to restart the hobby collection when you have completed the collection):
You will earn XPs when you complete a row in the hobby but tocomplete the collection you need to find all 12 of the collectibles
The rewards for completing this collection are a dog kennel, foosball table and 3LP:
The first time you complete the collection you receive a free premium dog kennel (which can be found in the pet section of buy mode)
The second time you receive a free foosball table (which can be found in living room section of buy mode)
From the third time onwards each time you complete the collection you will earn 3LP
Time Limited Hobby Events– the woodworking hobby appears often in these events, to complete these you have to complete the woodworking hobby a certain amount of times during the time limit to unlock all of the prizes, you can find a list of time limited hobby events here.If you want to complete these time limited hobby events then have one sim get to level six in this hobby before the next event starts so you only have to do the shortest option when the event begins!
