STUS PICKING MY FLOWERS TF OUTTA HERE
Not finished yet sadly but it's my next project after the museum glam uo
Hiya! Is there anyway I can see anyones map/island layout? Having giant troubles figuring out where to place houses and buildings and would love to see some inspiration!
i updated it with this... hmm
oooh that’s cute
@obtuse haven cute!
@woven drift You can use the map app on your nookphone
I'm doing big renos but yeah
omg I thought u meant Alaska
@fossil ivy I've tried! I'm just lacking in creativity at the moment
HAHA
@zenith harness also i like ur pfp 😂 snailmail is great
@obtuse haven fax
u rich rich
Who rich rich
Oh?
almost 3 mil bells
wow...
I would rly love some inspo if anyone is willing to let me come over 🥺
Flex
i got 80k-
2 days just to do this and I’m already tired and want a break 😂
HAHAH
I have 33mil since we're flexing lmfao
U know what
@coral blade sarcasm? 🥺
I haven’t purchased turnips before
I’m jealous I only 3 mil lmao
Specialy not in thebinternet I'm genuinely impressed
Wait where’s the orange flowers on the bushes-?
OUT OF SEASON 😭
oh lmfao. @coral blade sick island btw jeez. Might steal your villager layout bc we have the same exits lmfao
@zenith harness they grow seasonly
Certain flowers only grow in seasons
BITCH WAIT
@zenith harness out of season
HAHAHHAHA
TF U MEAN
i made the same mistake
I JUST SPENT LIKE 10k-
Bahahahaha! I prefer them staying green
Haha no probs go for it I am moving 1 or 2 to make my life a little easier xD
I DONT WANT NO PINK FUKIN AZAELA SHIT ON MY ISLAND
@zenith harness
the azeala bushes aren’t cute imo and i hate that they’re the only ones in season
YOU WON'T 😤
I'm in late fall and the olive tea is ugly af
I only got the orange in season lmao
How long does it take to purchase 3900 turnips
i want to time skip but i’m too scared of my whole island being invaded with weeds
2mins and a very empty inventory
it's not as bad as you think @ember pewter
I’m going to try it tonight
@ember pewter depends how long/how much u wanna skip
omg kyra I have so many weeds, first time u step on my island you’d be in walking numonia
HAHAHAHA
I am doing some TT today while I do Reno's and forgot to change the month whom I hit may1 and I was invaded by weeds having to jump forward a whole month
LMFAO
loooool
@steep socket omg u have the same user as my sister and i thought she followed me into this server for a second
Im just glad villagers ask to leave now xD or I'd have been screwed
was about to dip
y’all wtf do I do, I just want a forestry island and the hedges don’t look good with cedar and Pastel pink looks like shit too 😦
haha me too!!! Fellow aussie
Hello fellow aussies
fall sux
this is my layout rn, i legit have nothing in these red (super thin now imnrealizing) circles, legit dont know what to do in them
@coral blade That's the best update to the game so far imo 🤣 I rememebr I TTd a year in NL for shits and giggles and Francine left me a letter saying she moved I was so heartbroken bc she was my fav 😭
Aussies unite xD
I've moved 70% of my villagers out of my old residential area and it's starting to look like a weird ghost town.
Hmm cafe?
anyone have a campsite area i can have a look at?
That's mine right now, and I hate it
@obtuse haven basic ideas but maybe a fishing area, some themed stalls, a park, or a color coordinated flower garden?
@queen lotusi feel that pain so deep I had lucky leave me that way.
Ur houses are so spread
ooooooof @coral blade that's an expensive one
@queen lotusi knoooooow
or a basketball court
I'm still need on vr it
@ember pewter yeah the super big area is for flower breeding rn, but i dont want it like that forever :/
I still lacking ideas for a market/trading area outside my shops
Still not over it
i copied my basketball court off of a youtube video 😳
I haven't g to that yet I keep getting distracted
@swift stag I’m looking at your picture and I’m wondering how u got the dark bushes ?
@obtuse haven maybe when u get enough flowers u can have a fenced area where they’re all organized by color
and it can attract lots of expensive bugs too
that’s what i want to do
My fav spot IV made so far .. maybe it's hard I have some fun and interesting spot.
omg @coral blade the worst part was before amiibo you had to cycle our SIXTEEN villagers before you could get them to move back in
i love the white and blue flower combo 😍
maybe it was 10 or 12 but I just remmeber it being a lot
yeah, im having the thin areas by my entrance be where all the flowers are
ohhhhh
@queen lotus yess I remember. I never did get him again I stopped playing out of Greif.
i hate how i lost all of my amiibo cards, i bought them when happy home designer came out and lost them ALL somehow
Hoping I find him in horizons .. found Whitney and Renee so I'm happy about that and I have Zell and Eugene I love those two dorks xD
i had a goldie card i think 😭
lol... ill see what todo in the future, maybe takensome ideas here and there
@zenith harness They’re the pink Camellias
dedicated to this
@zenith harness
I've just been buying villagers with NMT, after it took me like 40 just to get marina who I barely even wanted I quit using the.
what should i do with the flooring here?
Ooh thanks! @colde
@hollow dew thank you for helping her out 🙂
Anyone willing to let me come thru right now for some inspo 🥺
@queen lotus I need to do this too omg
@placid thunder hmm i like the flooring but i feel like landscaping is missing, i don’t think u should change the flooring, maybe just add bushes and flowers
if people would like to come to me im looking for some help w color schemes!
I love it gorgeous!
my island is heavily terraformed but in need of some furnishing details
lemme see those island entrances
@placid thunder maybe you can put some real palm trees behind the fake ones?
@worldly lagoon ^^^^
@placid thunder hmm i like the flooring but i feel like landscaping is missing, i don’t think u should change the flooring, maybe just add bushes and flowers
@ember pewter add some flower/bush, noted. thanks
@placid thunder maybe you can put some real palm trees behind the fake ones?
@obtuse haven ill try
How many trees should I have in my tree farm/orchid?
@woven drift i made myself have 10 each so it can be an even 30 for each fruit picked
@woven drift I did 5 of each
i did 5 also (:
You mean 10 and 5 of each type of tree?
5 x 5
i think the black stalls are too harsh
@cunning flame are you using any tables there?
no, not really, theres an ironwood low table somewhere but thats it
@woven drift i used 10 of each fruit, but mine is a bit overboard
my orchard is such a mess
also was wondering, does anyone have a guide to what bushes bloom in what seasons?
the trees are all uneven
anyone have any campsite designs i can have a look at?
@cunning flame
tyvm
southern hemisphere is prob different tho
i need to work on a flower garden, how did u guys do that? like how much space
like a breeding/cloning area or just a garden to show off flowers?
@versed wadi thanks
just for breeding!
needing some inspo. anyone have maps like this? it's so beautiful. trying to get some ideas.
mine is a little like that but with a lot more water, ill post it
sweet! looking forward to it ❤️
Does anyone have any picture examples of how they decorate with garden lanterns?
my setup is pretty bad lol but i basically have a breeding area on the north side, once i get 3 of the same hybrids then i destroy the parent flowers and plant the hybrids in my cloning area on the south , planning to do this until i get 3 of each hybrid (except blue rose, probably just gonna trade for that)
ooh ok gotcha
ty!
Anyone have any general advice on how to deal with an island that has:
*Two symmetrically southern river entrances and
*The town hall is exactly at the center near the airline
I've already plopped down all buildings around the town hall. Please ping me for some advice
Hey @pseudo palm what does your entrance look like I really love ur island vibe and ur island has exactly what I’m going for ( not trying to copy just want an idea of what I wanna do 🙂 )
make everything else in your island asymettrical
anyone have a 3 level residential area?
make everything else in your island asymettrical
@cunning flame So far my town building layouts are asymetrical so it's good to know that this is working out, thanks
trying not to tear down everything and chuck everything to the beach rn 🙃
Are orange roses a thing
I need orange roses but idk how to get
red + yellow rose
O
orange roses are the prettiest imo
What's your favorite flower? Go!
i agree
My pink roses feel attacked
mums!
Ew I hate mums LMAO
How can I choose
whaaa
probobaly because there my native
The orange rosealmost looks like a soft peachy color to me
omg i noticed that ppl always hate their native flower
i like lilies
Yea
like i HATE pansies bc they’re my native
Wait
i want to throw up in the sight of them
What are the sunflower ones called
Lilies and roses are my favs!
cosmos
Oh yea I love cosmos
They're not sunflowers lol
Oh
Cosmos are real
would probably never hate them tbh
I have a lot of black lillies
Imagine naming your island rosy reef and you have pansys as your native
LOL
rose is my native and i love em
i named my island sunnyside and got the dullest flowers ever
😑 that’s my kind of luck
i was expecting cosmos ):
i have lilies in my town but i wish i had hyacinths
I love roses as my native because blue roses are so much easier with the hybrid islands 😁
i’m kind of getting sick of hyacinths now
this is my campsite, its very busy looking but also not much
Y’all what do I put I’m lost
i used to love them but i places too many in my town
I was curious if mums were well liked because my island has them and my character's name is "Chrysan" short for "Chrysanthemum"
Mums are pretty well liked I think
i love mums, second favorite with lilies at third
hmm
I like then @night siren especially the hybrids tho
hyacinth #1 imo
I think the least popular are windflowers and pansies
id put pansy at my number 3!
Pff windflowers are dope
But I love blue pansies
i like the windflowers! i think my least favorite are the pansies or cosmos but i loooove the blue and orange windflowers
@zenith harness maybe add that wood log fencing if u have it and place down some garden lanterns, then a nature themed stall?
idc that orange windflowers aren't hybrid i'll put them everywhere
like a flower stall
Omg kyra ily ur so great thank u
I think windflowers are cute!! But no one else ever does. The orange ones look good on the beach by coconut trees
Add me
i put orange windflowers in my diner area :D makes it look so vintage and fancy
I have blue windflowers in my forest, looks like bluebells or something 👌
I love windflowers. They are my fav
I love how I’m focusing on one little part on my island at a time, it’s so nice
wait can u put flowers on a peach? i thought they wont regrow
this is so sick
@kyra this fence?
beach
If they’ve bloomed already they’ll stay that way
@cunning flame they won't breed and will remain at the stage they're at ie buds won't bloom, but otherwise it's fine
wait so if you step on them.. are they dead forever
I have red cosmos on my beach :D
Does anyone have Raymond on their island I can speak to 😦
If you destroy the flowers they won't bloom again unless you move them @cunning flame
Just dig them up and let them re bloom. Then replant!
I heard talking to a villager heightens the chances of them on a mystery island?
Omgggf
i’ve been looking for it for like weeks
Omg
oh what
I love country fencing I use it all over my island
got to stay on that fence grind
I wish I could give u it
i just had that in my shop, but looking for a diff fence
it’s ok! i like waking up everyday and hoping i get it tbh
Ha
something to look forward to 😋
My spa
For real😂 thank you!
how do people get so much furniture and decorations in their islands omg i wanna make my island look like the fire nation
same but i’m slowly progressing there
if u find some furniture u rlly like and want u can always trade for it
and then if ur too broke to trade
uhhh
trading with others/message in a bottle/checking every few hours for villagers crafting in their homes/balloons
just pray that it falls out of the sky
my nintendo online trial is over im really sad about it
awe
my membership was supposed to expire 2 months ago but it hasn’t... and it’s not reoccurring
i saw an island tour and someone had a cauldron ... i want it so bad
but i’m not complaining
I wanna make a rock garden but I barely have any room aaaa
What's the most popular fence in most towns?
i keep seeing those stone fences with roofs on them for zen areas
Kyra it might’ve auto payed
The zen styled fence is really nice, I got the recipe of it
LMAO
haha oof it probably did..
@zenith harness off topic but is that snail mail lush djsjsjjsk
this is not good news
Yes
i love that album so much it's not even funny
what osnsbabna
Can someone tell me how to get the pavement under buildings?
Is it good
yes!!!! pristine and heat wave are my favorites
you'll have to move the building and lay down pavement first?
Nope it will automatically turn to grass
I think for villager buildings it does?
@woven drift I tried doing that
OMFG IM A MINUTE INTO PRISTINE AND I LOVE IT
but it doesnt work
woahhhhhhh
@zenith harness YESSSS
then no, lol I use a custom path so I never tried it
i listened to it for months on repeat
Hottttt
ive only listened to one song by girl in red
dig site I just finished up in my museum area!
nice
omg thats so cute
Kayla that looks so good!
that’s so cool 😍
Heat wave is so good tooooo!
i love the idea of having fossils outside of ur museum
Ty guys 💗
Once redd comes back around I’m gonna get some statues to put outside also
Hot
i’m so confused how many spaces do i need to a dialogue bridge?
Aw tysm❤️
oh dude with his dick out?
im so uncultured i cant even remember the name
i got that one
YES THAT
I think it’s david
HAHAHAHHA
its fake tho
is there a guide for figuring out which statues are fake or not
ohH
There was for NL so I’m sure there is for NH
im kind of concerned about when my little sister decides to come back to the island and she sees a naked guy in the middle of our town but it’s fine
ohhh all ive seen is the guide for paintings
@dawn wren
;-; do you have the qr codes for those ghibli paintings? they look so nice 
does anyone have a house door right infront of a bridge or incline? im trying to see how the 2 wide bridge looks like with a 5 wide house
Never let anything revolve around the D
lmao
Snail mail kinda reminds me of adventure time
hey everyone, got any ideas what should i make in my island?? iam looking for city vibes
Guys what are garden lanterns
@dull cypress not sure what u mean but I have this
Oooh
anyone know what i could do a big space ? i ran outta ideas
does anyone have an orchard on their island? would love to see some for inspiration
@zenith harness a lot of places. I got mine from a balloon
i mean like this sorry lol
Ohh
@zenith harness if u need some i can let u come to my island so u can catalog them 😋
or i could send u some through the mail
cause i have extra
Omg, that would be great dm me dodo code :))
alright! let me get my switch real quick
I literally just got some in the mail I don’t need anymore too lmao
Okayyy!
some of my favorite parts of my island, criticism welcome
@dull cypress these are they only inclines I have near buildings
I personally think it’ll look bad if it gets too close lol
omg it’s dead and isn’t charging
So cut they basically limited customization to this grid, i want square beaches
@zenith harness can u friend me and i’ll just send u them through the mail when it charges again?
Sure :))
ty! ill dm u my switch code
@woven drift thank you so much lol, i forgot i could just place down 2 inclines lmao
np haha
I need ideas for a large area, I already have a playground and orchard (and a little cemetery too lol)
Cafe
Anyone know how to make an island look nice with your town hall being a bit far in
@cold olive ^ cafe
i'd say make huge walls if you dont like your island placement
@woven drift maybe a nice long walkway with a nice scenery flowers some benches or even waterfalls
@cold olive basketball court, shop area
Yeah i was thinking more and more waterfalls with flowers on top
And then Cocunut trees on the sides
I need ideas for a large area, I already have a playground and orchard (and a little cemetery too lol)
@cold olive maybe an outdoor picnic area!
or a cafe?
@cold olive yes
Any chance anyone has a basketball hoop I can buy or touch trade? 🙂
It sounds terrible but if y’all have any dead pets u could make a memorial.
this is my basketball court area thing..
i’d touch trade with u vicki but my switch do be dead 😔
very nice
about the right size
Is the basketball hoop a 1 space thing?
i think so
When i tell you this took all day 😐
i was able to put it right in front of my river
How did you manage to get them all together?
`
woahh
I'm kinda stuck on this area, it feels so empty but I dont know what to put there without it looking out of place, any ideas?
AM I THE ONLY ONE SHOCKED THAT THEY PUT A NAKED STATUE IN A RATED E GAME OR AM I CHILDISH
I placed mannequins in every single possible space on my island except for where i wanted them to spawn
Im shocked too dont worry
I really want it so I could pose with the ass and make it my passport photo
Lmao
Lol
Good idea, my passport is me trapping Marina
@zenith harness HAHAH THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING
Good times
I abused marina out 😔😔
@finite zinc the iron outdoor furniture would look nice in that space maybe
like the chair and table
but u might have to change the colors
cause dark green is kind of... ehh
Yeah haha
I’m proud of me
YESS it looks so good
Im not sure, because the lake has these jumping rocks
it’s all u b 🙂
OH IT DOES?
Finished the entrance to my Island.
Yeah
maybe like off to the sid ethen
like here
@slate tundra SO CUTE, im@goong for the same entrance idea with mine
but i haveugly green light things
I have black ones
yeah i’m probably going to do the same when i get to that point
Black ones are also good
i like the white ones the most
The green and brown ones are kinda
very cute
Finished a bunch of areas of my island!
Shopping area: https://gyazo.com/cf68a11c937bce0c13b3d4595bc1bd2f
Campsite, living area, museum, japanese style shopping street (thanks twitter for that idea): https://gyazo.com/de1192436336056f329e7a5ef1332478
Some more living and a little area to hang out and chill and watch stars: https://gyazo.com/cf68a11c937bce0c13b3d4595bc1bd2f
I use these type of lanterns for my entrance, they dont give much light whatsoever but they look pretty cool
Trying to keep my island very natural.
@hexed apex very cute island, everything seems very organized and thought out
They look good paired with stone dogs but it all depends on your layout and theme
thanks, I'm still adding stuff to the museum bit as in objects, but most of the things are done.
Now I still have a few places left to sort out.
Walk-way to Nooks
Does anyone know if I can plant flowers on custom design paths ?
you cannot
thats not very nice lol
It depends, if it's a dirt path, yes, but if you top it off with a custom design, no
no you can't, only dirt and grass
Why does this look so bad what do I put-
hmmm
@zenith harness you can check some of what I did to my nooks for inspiration! *** https://gyazo.com/cf68a11c937bce0c13b3d4595bc1bd2f
the dirt path is throwing it off
wrong link -_-
lmao delete this dog
i think that when there’s a lot of the dirt path it looks a little strange
Wait
hmm idk why it's grabbing the wrong link lol
Does anyone know the length and width (in holes) the nooks cranny and the tailors shop is?
But if I don’t put dirt path it won’t blend with the paths
oh yeah-
you can add custom designs on top of the path? some lights?
That’s cute maquannas
yeah true
yeah I do that with some wooden planks on dirt, looks really nice!
u can add like bricks as well
Wait so what do I do
i think there’s custom@design bricks
what yall think of the iron fencing as fences in my main entrance? i rly like the fencing i j dont feel like its fitting well
It depends all on your islands main theme and what you have in your entrance, the fencing is pretty nice when you have things to compliment it
My theme is also forest lol
My bad, I'm talking to gayva
Though I have a totally different vibe than you I added custom designs like this
I would check out this persons twitter! They share a lot of cool patterns also, but in general sooo much good inspiration for things!
ah yes.. a theme... 😩🥵
Hiii can i look at your diner 😣 i need some inspirations 😊
that looks so coool 😮
omg tysm!!!!
@zenith harness any of these fencing maybe? and some flowers in front of it
Hey guys! I am at 4 stars rating and I have been told I don’t have enough ‘scenery’ what does that mean?
but i definitely think the dirt path needs to be changed somehow
anyone got a woodsy, nature theme going on on their island? would love to see some screenshots for inspo
Hi anyone has diner ideas 😊 i would like to see them haha i need some inspirations
Custom designs
i used different pathing on my island but let me try and remember how
@zenith harness finding the right one will 🙂
Hm
Ok
My main struggle is having ideas but lacking incline/bridges as I hit my limit 😫
of the shop
woah cute
photography skills
@blazing jackalheres some ideas I came up with, its sorta nature themed
nice! so orderly haha
O wait that looks good
I suck at placing trees
Heres a picnic setup as well to go in a wooden area
Oh yea does anyone have a designer code for a brownish orangish picnic blanket?
This creator
Oh yes
She has them in pink, yellow, tan, and blue
Ty
update on my casino so far: i did the flooring, a karaoke section, a bar, a red carpet and added my firsts machines!! :D
Anybody have any medium-large park area pictures?
But yeah basically, this person retweets all kinds of amazing inspiration of islands people made and amazing custom designs and they make great custom designs as well! https://twitter.com/HermitInput anyone should definitely take a look it inspired me so much !!
@zenith harness this path may look good for the outside of the shop and compliment the dirt?
It's just insane to see what people come up with
Ah thank u kyra
actually
thats a very cute playground
i can’t tell
Thank u hell
npp
Im trying to get coordinating playground equipment but no luck yet 😔
Looking to have flowers around a statue. Anyone got something like that? Like planters rounda statue. Preferably round.
I tried doing that with my statue, it didnt work out too well
@zenith harness it might clip over the dirt path u already have if it’s transparent
But my space was small so I wish you luck with trying to do that
Okay
Tips on how to improve cafe?
@finite zinc Aw bummer
I already got rid of all the dirt-
o
Instead I made these panels by the statue and it works pretty well
that’s a really nice area
Which one kyra
I’d maybe see how a darker wood finish would look on the tables, but it looks great as it is too!
Ok
Add something small by the cart. The balance is off.
@untold cipher what should I add though
a little plant maybe?
Moving the cart to the left one and adding a plant would look good!
Uh I think I did something wrong
What’s wrong with it?
Doesn’t that look weird...?
Bc of the dirt?
if you think it looks weird, try using is sparingly and see how it works?
You would have to do it on grass I think
hmm
or that
i think the brick looks good with the shoot
If you really want the dirt pathway, probably try out the brown design
shop*
I think it looks fine but was meant to be put on light dirt or grass
Yea
yes good idea leelee ^
Ima try brown
But I think it looks okay, trust the process and maybe start with that and decorate around it how you would if it was fully done
Thoughts on using weeds for like crops ?
If you decorate around it and dont like it, change plans
@lunar crest And can you add something on the cart? Like sugar dish?
The brown looks kinda cool
I feel like if you put hedges outlining the dirt path, the gray path will look bomb
any island with a downtown inspiration for Nook's Cranny and Able Sisters?
Ah so many decisions
You reckon seating area needs decking also sorry about glare 😂
Any thoughts on how I should arrange my shops? I want to move ables over to the left about 1 space the size of itself, and either move nooks next to or below it.
@rain notch my shops are arranged in pretty much the same way and i like it a lot, i recommend u move nooks next to it
it gives off a town square vibe kind of
y’all something seems off I’m pretty sure it’s the path-
Brick as in like
Is that light dirt?
@viral spindle I feel like these paths would make your seating area tons more better than it is already
@zenith harness and if that doesn’t work maybe try removing the dirt from under the brick pathing and just have a space between the dirt and the brick path?
My island is stuck with two southern river mouths instead of the usual "one bottom one side" river entrance mouths. Would it be considered ugly if I just did two straight rivers going upwards?
@zenith harness also put the hedge on top of the edge, not by it
Ty lee lee gonna put some decking down now 😊
Two south rivers took up way too much of my space personally @night siren but I’ve seen them done really well with extravagant waterfalls. I made one of mine into a cove instead
Two south rivers took up way too much of my space personally @night siren but I’ve seen them done really well with extravagant waterfalls
@rain notch Yea two south rivers are giving me some anxiety right now hgngnn
YALL THIS IS HARD LMAO
I’m looking for someone that is willing to design and terraforming for my island,willing to pay a lot. DM ME FOR MORE INFO
Private beach + verger + museum done !
all of this red brick?
@night siren this is what I turned one of my rivers into
Try these maybe if the paths arent working out
Oh wait those are amazing
I did my whole neighborhood in stone and now I’m really starting to like brick 😩
i did mine in stone and terra cotta
I hate the brick staircase
Does anyone have images of good islands with two southern rivers?
Also kyra it looks really cute
Thanks :))
@night siren it's doable.
A quick way around it is to cap off one of the mouths and make a little water feature out of it.
That's what I did.
I've since reconnected the river mouth though as i've used it to create a bit of a ravine
anything i could improve for my cafe?
idk how I feel about it
Hey is there anyone who is really good at this sort of thing? Im not sure what to put on my island and was wondering if anyone could come over and kind of give me some pointer fingers based on my layout and the remaining space
My museum area! Going to have a dig site and research area near by 😅
@zenith harness i think it’s cute, maybe add a dirt path on the sides and add bushes or flowers and fencing right behind it?
Okay ;))
I've since reconnected the river mouth though as i've used it to create a bit of a ravine
@versed wadi Late reply but this idea is really cool, thank you so much!
any one have any ideas for orchards?
@woven drift get outta here
What is perfect layout for neighborhoods
what did y'all do with this part of the island?
I need orchard designs 😖
Can you guys pm for example
i put a lighthouse there 🙂
@ember pewter like this?
There i no ''perfect'' layout I think , aything people come up with is nice, just depends on preferences
Guys idk what to do with my books entrance it looks like shit
anyone got garden designs? I've been stressing about my flowers for weeks now n made no progress with the placement. some are sorted but the rest are just dumped in piles.
Thats kinda similar to how I'd like to have my flowers organised but its just too stressful atm lmao
hahah Just go by feeling, doesnt have to be perfect, you can just change it bit by bit
@finite zinc love how you used the star frags! the pink-ish lights, are those the hyacinth lamps?
@blazing jackal the star frags are called Nova lights, they're much bigger than if youd drop them and no one can steal them and they're customizable, and the pink lights are purple hyancith lights
diy?
Both are a DIY
very pretty 
Guys idk what to do with my books entrance it looks like shit
@zenith harness add flowers on the dirts, fence behind that cedar trees behind that, remove dirt at middle front, maybe 2 blocks, continue paths downwards, at a table and chairs
Never use star Fragments as items, anyone can go to your island and take them because you will need to drop them and they wont glow at all, nova lights look the exact same and no one can take them
Im just gonna share my café one more time because I think its sooo cute 
that's adorable 
yeah i had seen a few people do it and it confused me a bit but didn't know there was a craftable lamp version of them!
omg i've never seen someone make the cabin stuff look good
i want a whole separate housing and shopping district...but the problem is that i;m left with a lot of open space.
Open space is not that bad tho!
I'm using city street paths so some areas look a little awkward?
I have one space thats Jungle, and a camping chilling area
I like my house but theres still open space I dont know hat to do with
@blazing jackal they're pretty expensive, I get mine for 10nmt since they're a celeste item but that's very easy to do if you start letting people catalog simple room setups and full sets
Never use star Fragments as items, anyone can go to your island and take them because you will need to drop them and they wont glow at all, nova lights look the exact same and no one can take them
@finite zinc but its too big
Or do craftin services
I love the symmetry going on there star
but i guess i could fill it up with fake houses or "scenes"
@placid thunder it may be too big for some things but it's so much better than having people come over and steal star Fragments without you knowing and needing to constantly replace them, they're pretty expensive to get and so if a player seen them theyd take it in a heartbeat

@finite zinc oh yea, agree
This channel is amazing, I'm so excited to see everyone's designs for some inspo! :3
Everyone's islands are SO AMAZING here
i feel like i shouldn't even breathe the same air lol
Grave placement finished, made some small adjustments. Just need fencing and to place down garden lanterns.
If anyone is bored and wants to roam around an island, Im opening up mine in 2 min, Dm me if youd like to have a look, Theme is tropical
My layout is meh
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EWjJOhBUEAA5J4G?format=jpg&name=large this is my layout
Im working on getting 10 wolves lol
I'm wanting Apollo
i love double south personally so i like your map, you can do a lot with it
yours lol
autocorrect. And thanks
I hate that bridge placement on the 4the grid area on my map
Once my bridges are done I'm removing it and changing the landscape
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EWNNyZUUYAsfTVh?format=jpg&name=large plz don't judge this is my second map
Damn. More impressive than mine tbh
don't judge me for having two LMAO
@elder igloo I like the natural river at the top very much!
One is reg, one is lite
Is the lite worth?
I have the lite
The lite was cheaper but tbh i like the lite better than the reg
I enjoy playing on the little screen while in bed, just so comfy
yeah! the screen feels just right
I would play my main on the lite if i could :/
i got it for self trading villagers and stuff. and so i could resist the urge to destroy my main town.
I have no idea on what to put on the rocks behind the picnic blanket, anyone have any suggestions?
a fishing setup? Or a lighthouse with a bench facing the ocean
Man. I really want Apollo on my second island once I get my own switch
With the inclusion of Ceilia
Zell is my favourite tho
Apollo moved in this morning:)
Yay!
Do bridges reach 4 spaces or do they have to be 3 spaces?
Let's try to keep this channel focused on island talk 
I was messing around with terraforming (i got it not long ago and have been scared to use it) and come up with this 😄
I think its adorable!
I am trying to decide if I want to kill my main housing district and move like two of them into my shopping area / RS area...it WOULD give me more room to work with on the upper side of my map
What do you people think about urban islands???
I like it!!!
They're really cool, with loads of effort. However, I personally prefer things more rustic and natural.
I see who inspired you 😛
I really like seeing how everyone transforms their islands differently. You've really made the urban layout work well!!
I love urban islands, but it’s hard to find good inspo for them since everyone does natural ones
i wanna do a similar area
Yeah, imotarez inspired me.
It doesn't help that the amount of natural items greatly outweighs the urban items
Hopefully we will see more urban items in future updates!
How the hell does one even get hedges?
its the DIY nook gives u for doing nature day
How does one DO nature day???
Which path looks better?
Nook miles + tasks. Once you finish one, go talk to Tom
@cyan cedarright
I think it is after you do a nature day task speak to nook and he gives you hedges
@cyan cedar right
@cyan cedar definitely the right
ok lol
I'm so mad, had this spot for an incline planned for ages. Turns out my Nook's Cranny location blocked it, now I have this funky path for it 😂
@cyan cedar ou can u send the code for the right I really like it
@torpid vine sure its not mine thou
When ya mid Reno's and run out of stone.... Fuck
@cyan cedar tysm!
Also that is gosh darn gorgeous
@TeaWithMandyxo visited Pipwyn on her stream today for a brief tour. Thank you so for much taking the time to visit 😊 https://t.co/oJeppDQ2OH
I just did a tour of my island with TeaWithMandy on Twitch 🙂
ooo congrats
lol, stream delays are very confusing.
i don't wanna spoil pipwyn before i see it for myself 😭
Hey all, I’m struggling for an island entrance design, could anyone send some photos of theirs so I can get some inspiration?
@scenic blaze it'll probably all have changed in the next week anyway
@shy axle if you lurk this channel you may have seen mine but it's here: https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1254063189702004737
@shy axle mine isn’t all that fantastic— it’s just a road with a sign lol
Thank you! And mine right now is just a brick path, I had a real mental block 😂
Looking for good pool area designs if anyone had a good one!
My entrance, I added another sign today
I expect the island to be one big sign in a few months 😆
I love those signs
That’s really cute @versed wadi! I like that a lot
I need some help I think I overdid it with fencing and now my island is completely boxed in for the most part
@winged zephyr thanks
@shy axle if you still want island entrance ideas, heres mine!
First post
What do you Guys think? Any Tipps?
hey
currently in the process of resetting im just selling my villagers
Then ill do some moon crafting services
First post
@tall pumice
Thats beautiful
Re designed my private beach into the ultimate campgrounds.
love it
Thanksss 17-20 hours of work
great attention to detail
Thankyou! Thank you . Wanted to make something special of the private beach
I’m about to get terraforming when I play tonight but am having a hard time figuring out how to take the image in my head and make it in game
I’ve been struggling to get to 3 stars on my island. Does anyone have any ideas of how I can speed up the process
Flowers lots of flowers
I’ve been non stop placing flowers c: hoping if I carry on I can get to 3 stars sooner
dump your stored furniture on your beach, spam fences and flowers. done
Thank you
@wraith bronze if you talk to isabelle she tells you exactly what your lowest score is, set out things that bring up the score. you need a mix of DIY and storebought items as well as fences, flowers, and trees
Thanks 🙂
I don't think it's the lowest, but rather what will improve easiest (not always the same thing?)
Also spread out the stuff you place as well, don't clutter it all in one location
I found it didn't matter, but I dumped an absolutely ridiculous amount of furniture in the corners, just because I ran out of space in my storage, and hit 3 stars. lol
right now, 3/4 of my island is basically completely empty and I still have 4, due to the part I have finished being rather cluttered... -- I know for 5 it's supposedly matters, though.
I haven't gotten there, though.
i got 5 stars with only part of my island decorated, you can definitely get there without decorating everywhere
just asking - is it possible to drop in rating? if i get 5 stars but i change my whole layout, do i go back down to 3?
yup
you can drop yes
If we drop does K.K slider leave ?
When it comes to using indoor plants for outdoor landscaping, what are some of your favorites? I need to find some clever ways to work in some indoor plants in my outdoor landscaping because some of my houses don’t allow for trees in certain areas.
I think it takes a lot to drop though, My map is in shambles atm but it's still 5*
Anyone please give me beginner tips to design an island.. Im not a creative at all but I like this game so much I want to make it work but I dont know where to start 😢 do I have to design from scratch or what? Please help
i went up to 5 after i built my castle dungeon, weirdly hahaha
@high sundial i like the cypress outside (don't like it inside... like at all lol), cacao plant, and anthurium
@unique pond Says a lot about Isabelle!
I like a lot of them, and with careful use of fences, shrubbery and other objects you can often even hide the pot from the camera.
Does anyone have a sample layout of a lake surrounded by villagers houses I could peek at?
Well well well look who I have here
@woven drift thank you
Does anyone have a nice entrance with the plaza frustratingly close to the airport?
@void zinc wrong chat
Pagoda
Oops
@tight osprey my favorite super close plaza inspo is this one, you can see if you look through all the photos that she has about 8 spaces https://twitter.com/mori__tsumu/status/1253584047248306176
ooh that's a nice one.
abaout as far as mine is though, a little closer... I've seen even less space. sadface
I dont really like when people hide their plazas behind clifs but it does look good
mcgibbon and i both borrowed inspo from this post and ended up with completely different layouts, it's very cool
That tweet changed my life!
lmao
mine is an long s curve:
... I really need to take new images... now that I have more finished...
I thought my resident services was close to the entrance until I saw how close other people’s were
yeah me too... I think I have 11 spaces? or something like that?
my RS is 6 spaces from the beach, but luckily it doesn't overlap with the airport at all so i have wiggle room to experiment
I have 11

@scenic blaze
Oh thankyou!
and it's 2 squares off centre
Mine’s at an angle so I’m not exactly sure how many I have
good thing you aren't a symmetrical builder lol
Mine is this close 😭
ahh yeah, having left/right space would've been great too. my airport came in to the left of my plaza in a way that looked bad if I made it straight.. which is why I went with the S curve
I think I have the same as McGibbon
I started symmetrical
my plaza is VERy far away from my airport lol
@tight osprey oof that's pretty close. something like that post could still work for you though, if you like that style i'd recommend not including the water features bc it'll give you more room for cliff building
My plaza is completely obscured now. Cliffs are your friend!
you can see that i have very little room to build in front of RS but got to wiggle around in front of the airport
@scenic blaze I like how your plaza is slightly to the right! Still a bit of space to do something at the entrance
I've reconnected the south mouths again for the 2nd time this week.
Two of my villagers have been abandoned in the ghost town shell of my old residential area in the top left corner. I need to prioritise on rescuing them next.
i want to tear up my neighborhood so bad but i'm making myself wait until the rest of my island looks good
i was so proud of that neighborhood until i started posting in here and my builds got better lol
I saw some people looking for grand entrance inspiration, it’s not fully fleshed out yet but here’s mine so far 🙂
That's grand but understated. I like it!
that is very grand!
The looted remains of my original residential area that I've been stripping for parts and houses this week. #ACNH https://t.co/vOTRotopC6
Worth it though!
do you have any entrance examples with only this short space available? I'm kinda stuck
Scroll up. There's some Close airport/RS inspiration posted slightly earlier on
uh, I didn't know, I'll take a look then; thanks
No worries, hope it helps
@versed wadi you're brave for posting the wreckage
half my island is wreckage rn i swear
my pockets have been full of trees for a solid 24 hours
my pockets have been full of trees for a solid 24 hours
@scenic blaze I know this feeling.
@versed wadi do you mind if i visit your island? Your layout looks really good
i'm a fool for not chopping them down in the first place, they're all fruit! ugh
Just sell them, easy enough to replace them later
@woven drift I'm not on my switch atm, sorry.
@versed wadi ah its ok thanks anyway
@visual musk this is what i did near my resident services
any insperations for a grand entrence not to my island
I need ideas for places tbh idk what do for the rest of my island :/
Fefinitely need to terraform because ive barely touched it at all
Any idea suggestions? The area near the shops is a food court/ bamboo area and also where zucker lives but apart from that havent done too too much
@woven drift it looks nice and natural and like it doesn't need terraforming
Houses seem a bit too close :/
@versed wadi thanks :,) ill probably play around with it and make something with it on the left or add some waterfalls here and there
They could be closer 😉
I created this nice little spot for Nook's Cranny but the building was 1 pixel off. I moved it away and was planning to move it back today but they announced the upgrade today, meaning I can't move it back until the upgrade finishes :(
Truue but idk if i want them that close to each other lol
Just redid my whole museum entrance and I did not enjoy any moment of it
I need to give mine an entrance lmaoo
Sharing some of the best spot after playing over 300 hour. I really like rural-ish island but i have no idea how to do one. When i try making one, it just looks like trash.
I wanna make a mushroom forest somewhere
Using racecar beds to my advantage lolll
If i relocate the shop then change it to brick path, would it stay the same or go back as grass?
anyone here doing a medieval themed island i need some inspiration ;;
If I’m understanding your question correctly 🤣
You will need to redo the path
@swift stag meaning whatever i do, the shop will always be under grass? Basically i want it to be under brick as well if possible
You can still apply the default paths around the shop after 🙂
@sinful kindle placing a building on a path will delete said paths and return it to grass. Believe me, I’ve tried
i have 240 hours yet my island looks trash
I love my neat little campsite area ;-;
I shoulda made inclines/bridges last after i finish with terraforming and path
can someone help me---
im so upset, i didnt realise the middle path was 3 wide, and now i cant connect it up without it looking funky. but also, idk how to fix this lol @_@
What do you Guys think? Any Tipps?
If I fill in an existing river with land does the beach conform to it
@barren karma well you have a couple choices, make the outer paths three as well, or move your trees up on and have the middle path be two instead of three
@woven drift i love it it looks great to me
ill see what i can do @_@
Hi guys how do you take video's of your island i have a switch lite i don't know if i can do it
@sinful kindle placing a building on a path will delete said paths and return it to grass. Believe me, I’ve tried
@hollow horizon Cool! Thanks for the input
@woven drift what beach? You can’t change the beaches at all
Shit
As in, you can’t terraform them
Trying my best to continue terraforming and decorating, still have a long way to go but I wanted to show my newest garden! I have to add a few flower stands and floor lights and then I may be finished for now!
I wanted to expand it since the river would completely disappear
Well you can’t make it disappear completely. The river mouth will stay there regardless of what you do, unfortunately
That’s unfortunate indeed
@vapid zodiac that’s beautiful! Get some hybrid colors in there too!
I can't wait to see what my island is going to look like in Autumn!
@versed wadi whose house is that next to apollo???
I mainly wanted to keep it pink and white, I need to add more pink flowers I think :')
Agnes, I'm swapping her out for Poppy this afternoon though
damn agnes house exterior looks good tho
@swift stag throw some hyacinth lamps in there 🙌🏽 looks good
I needed somewhere for my Townie villagers to live. Their houses don't look good buried in the woods.
does your house dimensions change when you upgrade? i forget
They do not
damn
Your house expands to the sides but before the upgrades there's little bushes on the side instead @queen nexus
@wild heron I will be filling most sections with Mushroom lamps! But will be needing a lot of materials for the amount
um i have 240 hours and my island still looks lik a pile of shit do i just give up lMAO
noo keep going
keep working on it!
Aaa I can't wait for autumn! I looove the mushroom decorations
ugh ik i just want a cute island ngl and then i see ppl with like the same amount of time / less hours and their islands lok amazing and im like fuk
Giving up or restarting isn't gonna make your island any cuter
@swift stag ahhhh mushy lamps. I’m legit lost for ideas now
@ruby topaz felt
@dreamy compass that is too true. i made that fatal mistake.
@wild heron what’s your theme?
@finite basalt hope you can get back on top!
yh i wouldnt wanna restart bc its so lONG
@swift stag it’s red. Literally heap of red
im tryin! I already like the new island more tho, so...
but its like a fuking mess
So I'm planning to have an island within my place where my house is going to be. Have any Ideas for decorating it?
@wild heron photos!!
@swift stag can i see your island layout o:
