maybe hqve the fences a contrasting colour tho @woven drift
@sturdy radish how long did it take you?
maybe 2 weeks of tting because i was lazy to custom tile EVERYTHING until like last 3 days xD
If anyone here into steampunk, I'd like to see some ideas for an industrial/bricky city layout
anyone have good ideas for a café area? i cant decide what to do with some parts of my island
@rancid spire scroll up for a nice western and asian one!
@woven drift Judging from what I’ve seen in your pictures some advice could be to get custom patterns like natural filler like leaves or other paths like rocks and stuff to spice up your areas
cute :)
Are those better than these leaves? @hoary dew I dont really like custom patterns
But I'll give it a go! For sure
does anyone have any inspo for a pool area?
Who needed shop area inspiration?
@woven drift those leaves are fine but you could do a mixture of both, variety is beautiful
I like your blue/gold flower combo choices Seal 🙂
Hahaha thanks
It’s almost time to use these beauties
Bro giiiimmme
@rich sky thank you!! Any suggestions or remarks for these flower beds? Flower arrangement is my number 1 fave
I'll replace the white roses with lilies of the valley
Your flower arrangements are amazing
It’s almost time to use these beauties
@heavy crater how do you people get so many statues? :v
No, you're the bomb!
The other person who runs our island won’t let us buy any statues outside of redd’s boat @heavy crater so needless to say my design side is just shaking my head at how cool that photo is hahaha
Sal = seal
@sudden spear ive been grinding
Big PARA:
Okay so I've started work on my Halloween/spirit like forest. The theme is supposed to be based on Shakespearean pixies - back in the day, they were seen as demonic and evil. I'm going to aim for that pixie like aura but still keep the darker areas dark, like summoning stuff and creepiness. The area is also themed off of Autumn so Halloween is a big influence, but I can't seem to figure out what I can do to add depth to it.
@woven drift lmao!!😂😂
These are my real villagers. Raymond can heck off
@idle cave maybe add a few rounded cliffs?
And some log benches as fallen trees :)
@idle cave do you have the custom code for that magic circle?
@idle cave Add some tea olive shrubs along with orange or yellow flowers.
I'm gonna try and find blood splatters but it's been hard
Tea Olive Shrubs? I'm unfamiliar
Leif has them for sale. The last time his visited my island last week he had them. They have yellow flowers or orange flowers.
@woven drift grinding!
oof I need all of that xD
Ugh brooo
@heavy crater I got my villagers so I only give away nmt
does anyone have a flower shaped pond? ;u;; if so, may i see it?
Omg!
I just used 70 nmt today looking for the villagers I want and had no luck
That’s awesome
now I'm out of nmt xd
I just spent like 130 on a wedding fence diy
i’ve arrived at layouts for the day
Oof. I never traded anything for my villagers
spent about 2 hours doing this yesterday
Oh
i’d stay away
general chat is cursed
they’re pretty scary
@woven drift I planned along the natural layout of my island
does placing custom paths over the defaults paths make sound?
i tried placing a stone path, and put a custom path over it but there's no sound
no, i mean when you run along the path
yep
Does anyone have any blossom viewing lanterns or would it be better to time travel back to the cherry blossom event?
anyone know a good cheap capture card so i can play on my pc?
i need one more cushion but is this okay?
oof-
if you place a custom path on top of a regular one theres no sound
@agile mantle thank you!
Please please post your diners. I need inspiration 😢
same
i'll prolly not use custom paths over regular ones lol
i live for the sounds
is anyone doing island tours today?
hello!
tom nook? ou chile the ghetto
huh
@woven drift you mean crying isn't normal while doing it?
@woven drift don't worry you'll be joining too I just have to run errands right now
@woven drift the amount of money ac owes me in compensation for mental breakdowns is alot
Does anyone by any chance have any forestry type/ natural area inspiration???
I have
@floral topaz same

Are you able to move your house after you get it for the first time,
You can move your house as many times as your heart desires
Thank you!
If anyone else would like a tour in about an hour. Just let me know!
Am I able to have someone help me 🥺
Making my island aesthetically pleasing
Okay ^^
Thank you so much!
@agile mantle I've done a mixture of both
Could I actually invite someone to come over to help? Since it’s open rn ^^; (I’m sorry for being stupid lol)
LF inspiration for your personal houses on top of cliffs. I want to move my house but having trouble deciding how to place it 😇 pls help
In Game/Reality/View
Anyone with their own house in a forest like setting that want to show pictures?
@rugged rain hope this helps!
Oeeh Very nicea, thank you
does anyone have ideas on a setup for two houses? (one for your own and one for the other player) i'm thinking about setting them up right next to each other
so cute!!!! @floral topaz
@frosty spruce thx u not done landscaping it yet but the items are placed:)
hahah very nice!! i still have a TON of decorating left
same hahaha
i like how you used the teachers desk!
yeah the stalls get a bit much for me when they are all over uk 🙂
really?
idk that
very good point, also depends on what you put in them @agile mantle
same 😭
both my brothers have the newer one and i’m like ugh
i cant even do that 😭😂 i got the smash ultimate one
I want to come over @manic lantern i want to use the roads you're using in your picture and looking for inspo
Does anybody have a good example of winding paths
like this? @round egret
I have a couple blank spaces, ( currently filled with flowers ) and empty spots on my beaches that i have no idea what to do with
thanks!
Any ideas for empty beach spots?
A lil beach bar maybe?
I'd want to add something not many people have done
Ruins, beach bar, palm tree forest, towels and umbrellas
Bonfire
Ruins?
yup, I have some stones built and I'm going to place a stonehenge
my beaches are empty 😂
Same lol
I don't have a stonehenge, i only have a couple of the large/small stone DIYs
volleyball pitch
i’m out of QR paths so i cant really design my beach tbh
i’ve cleared out every non necessary paths lol
@thorny mirage alright awesome. Send me a DM. I'm currently running errands right now. I'll let you know when everything is ready
If anyone is patient/kind enough, i could invite you to my island to show you the empty spots i want to do things with
I made this waterfall entrance which I adore walking in but as soon as you go to the side of it it’s an eye sore. Any suggestions on how to make it less wonky?
With where they're placed and what i've done around them, i can't really do that
I'd like to see someome using their rivermouths as inland ports!
i finally finished my island entrance 🤧
omg love the beautiful statues @carmine urchin
Paths with sharp edges
Can anyone help with what I could put here?
So I made some more changes and added flowers what not, honestly kind of enjoying it.
Get out
Needing ideas 💡 can’t get thing right needing a little help dm me ideas
Anyone have any storefront pictures I can use for some inspo?? I move my books cranny further from the path so I could make a little area but now sure what to do with it yet
Ty (:
@swift stag thank u!! That’s so cute🥺 I also just got maple on my island yesterday
What table/ stool looks good next to brown poolside bed? I want something to put a coco it drink on
I hope they patch in the ability to customize fence colors urgh. There was a white picket fence in one of the directs last year...
How about using one of your river mouths as a Cove type of thing? @gentle breach
@woven drift this sounds like a really good idea, I have 2 river mouths in the south and have been wondering how to make them look nice, do u have any screenshot?
Everyone’s islands are so prettyyyyyy
Peri visit mine and youll say most islands
And have no idea where to start
@frosty glade not mine, I flattened my island and got rid of my river weeks ago, and I've been in terraforming limbo ever since lmao
i'm paralyzed by indecision 
Sorry, i was busy, i couldnt send images so i was sorting out the issue @visual moth
@fresh anchor My biggest tip for you is to start with a residential area for your villagers. That way you can terraform the rest of your island without worrying where to put your villagers.
@proper grove I’ve only just got the land terraforming so I’ve just moved my house
@woven drift ahhh that’s fine:) I’ll think about it as well, thanks for the inspiration!
yeah, I guess it's just baby steps. I moved all of my houses and the campsite to the beach, now I'm trying to figure out the placement of my shops and such... but it's so hard lol.
after I move the shops and museum, I'll arrange all the houses. but idk, maybe I should do houses first? I guess there's no right or wrong.
anyone have rock site inspo?
Lets get lost for a day.
To an island where no area is ever the same.

That’s super cute
Trying to do 3 house ground level, 3 middle, 3 top(including my house) does anyone have any photos for inspo, I'm struggling
I want a really cute natural looking layout can some one dm me inspo pls 🥰🥰🥺
ok so i'm impulsive and going to restart my island because i hate having the airport and two river mouths on the same side of the island (also hate my native fruit and flower). does anyone have recommendations for what's the best initial island layout in the end? if you're happy with the one u chose, pls send my way so i don't make a second bad decision 🥺
Anyone know where this wallpaper is from. Is it Saharah?
Yea it’s from Sahara @lilac glade
@fleet totem I have double South River and it's awesome
I can reset my layout??
lol i can't decide !!!
I got the cloud flooring from Saharah on her last visit
can y'all send me your island maps for double south river? that's what i have and maybe i'm just doing it wrong
does anyone have bamboo/zen garden inspo that can connect to my house?
@faint shale you can restart your save file, deleting all your progress and also getting the ability to choose a new layout
@hallow kayak how did you make two south rivers work? i have it and i’m really struggling
Here's my Island map, All the red areas are the spaces i have no ideas for and are currently just parks (Trees and Flowers)
@obsidian oar iv just flattened my whole island to start again🙈don't have photos for previous but yeah try yt for some inspo
@manic lantern that ad is so cute, I prefer the "fukcin go to my islnad nerds" method
This is my double south River map 🙂
Here's my progress on my zen spa. I think I'm finished with the lobby and can start on the bath itself. Any recommendation if I should add more to it?
You guys got any ideas that i can do for my empty spaces? i'm ok with a few of them staying parks
@hallow kayak oh god, i have way too much to flatten it now. i’ll try yt😂
Due to the amount of bookings I will be hosting for 3 separate groups. With still plenty of open spots available.
So if you're in need of inspo or would love to chill for a social gathering.
Let me know ❤
Favourite view on my island
@woven drift thanks bro haha
Anyone got any tips for starting to redesign my island? I just unlocked island designer
I can invite people to my island if they'd like to give me some ideas after seeing the empty spaces i have in person
any online tools or anything for planning?
First, plan everything out. I didn't plan and I had soo much trouble fixing things.
Which one?
I'd be happy to try and give empty space ideas!
I guess I should move all houses and stuff out of the way first?
Let me just open my gates then @warm kayak
Okay!!
@cedar canopy
- You CANT build a 4th tier so don’t try lol.
- Don’t move your buildings until you have an idea of wheee you want them.
- Make sure you have enough space for each building or house if you’re abt to decorate around.
I need some ideas for open space in my island
Yeah @woven drift
Here's my progress on my zen spa. I think I'm finished with the lobby and can start on the bath itself. Any recommendation if I should add more to it?
I don't even really know where to start tbh
Ty @ionic tree
I'd like a theme with lots of water
@woven drift Thank you so much ⭐️
i... still have a ton of empty space. and an empty zen garden... and no one theme across my island
Is there a way to just make my island kinda empty so I have a fresh slate to start on?
my magical forest
Anyone have any ideas for something I can put in open spaces on my island I’ve run out of ideas😓
@cedar canopy removing all tiers/cliffs and the rivers
OK I'll start removing rivers now then
@faint shale for big areas i’ve done projects like outdoor library, butterfly garden. for little spaces.. i’m still trying to figure that out. i put some scattered stalls
?
Islands feel so huge when they're leveled
i need some help with food stands, can u guys give me some ideas for food stands?
does anyone have pics of their neighborhoods in game? or how you clustered your villagers together? im debating on stacking mine in 3 tiers
10 villagers
yeah i've hit the limit
Anyone have a picture of a forestry multi layered area?
Anyone have ideas for a cafe or library?
My farming area
@wraith veldt
Ooh thanks~
Thank you
Sometimes looking at these islands makes me wanna just restart
can you show a bird view? @swift stag
@wraith veldt this is a video but https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1257069969797349377
quick walkthrough of my forest leading into the cranny's new landscaping #AnimalCrossing #ACNH #NintendoSwitch https://t.co/1QBhASpUSX
I want to restart my entire island now, these are all so beautiful!
i have several layers also but my places look like shit
anyone have a good cottagecore themed island i can visit for inspo
So after flattening an island, how do you all plan out your stuff?
@stoic gorge You can’t get that angle
You could use that island planner website (I forgot what it was called)
@foggy pine I feel the same, I wish they allowed you to enter some sort of 'designer mode' like in your house where you can free-move everything
I hate where my plaza is placed😓
@swift stag stunning island!!
Winter is coming
I tried making a modern themed island, but now I was to make a cottagecore themed island
Same
Someone should compile a list of all the different possible themes (obviously themes are limited by available furniture) and some pictures of good examples of them
I want to make Streets but I'm too lazy
Once I finish making something I end up getting bored and changing it😳
I think I might go for a water/forest theme
@stoic gorge You can’t get that angle
@swift stag what?
It cant be worse than your original island lol
Seeing all these beautiful islands makes me want to reset but i don’t have the willpower to do that i love my villagers so much i can’t just abandon them
wait how would you reset?
Thanks to the super kind cart @rich sky
I wanna change my layout so badly cause when I first picked it out I just chose so quickly cause I just couldn’t wait to get started but now I have all this progress😭
You can either reset your entire game, or just move EVERYTHING to the beaches and then remove all rivers and cliffs
i kinda regret not picking an island with 2 south river exits they seem to be the easiest to terraform with
Any instrument layout?
Let it come naturally
Does anyone need the palm tree DIY Judy is making it on my island
I wish I chose an island where the plaza is directly opposite the airport so I could make a nice straight path to resident services and use it as like a central 'hub for everything
@zealous pendant could I come snag one?!
@woven drift feels right, was really keen on the forest one but now I’m just keen on doing a bit more of a modern island
Wow that looks amazing @woven drift
And yeah reset was worth it for sure
anyone got examples of a modern island?
@zealous pendant would i be able to come as well?
@woven drift @barren laurel dmd code
@woven drift rip when we made a chat for talking about forest stuff and now we both ain’t even into the theme as much anymore 😂
Why I can't place flowers in design paths?
I’ll still keep it probably just for us all to toss around ideas of other stuff to I guess
So what can you place there?
@raven kindle you can place them on the dirt paths
Furniture
Okay
anyone here have a nice modern/nature looking village I could tour?
But yeah I just teared down most of the stuff I made to, about to tear down my entrance to I think, my island is pretty much a flat earther atm @woven drift
@ripe flicker can I join you, i'm looking for a modern/nature mixed theme island as well
good afternoon my loves!
mornin
I wanna find a nice inbetween with modern and forest
if that makes sense?
Like I want a modern camp-site kinda vibe
@zealous pendant are you doing island tours again?? If so could I come over?
same, like I want to have modern sections but nature shouldn't be oppressed if that makes sense. If anyone has a island like that please dm me!!!
@nova wraith Judy making palm tree lamp
@cedar canopy ill be opening my gates in about 2 hours you're welcome to join
I’m doing a more half modern half forest kinda of island so I’m just gonna restart my entrance to and make it fit a bit more and then focus on hard on setting it up @woven drift
Ohh, gotcha
Does anyone have any good ideas to do for your museum?? My scenery looks too boring
I’m gonna CrY
hopefully it’ll work out
Guys hi my new island flowers are orange and purple
i HaTe my island
Sure @manic lantern - what theme is your island?
Ty
For this path should I use the Lattice or imperial fencing?
for sure, will defs keep in touch with ya in the chat about how it’s going, how’s your island going atm?
imperial! i like it a lot
@rain lion I like the darker one
nooo @exotic barn i’m sure your island is pretty!!
have you done much more from when I visited
I might have to go with imperial thank you for the opinions!!
Just finished my outdoor spa and pool area!!
my island is flatter than me
And yeah that’s the hard thing right! It’s like we get a few good select areas and then it’s just like I have no idea what to make of anywhere else @woven drift
Oop-
@exotic barn lmaooo 😭😂
@exotic barn I feel that
@exotic barn i- whys that a mood

My entrance
getting rid of this river takes ages loo
does anyone have a 4 star island i can come to and draw inspirations for designs?
@ebon rune i wanna do an entrance like that so bad do you have a tutorial?
btw i got zell! Someone was giving him for free
No but you can come look at it if you want
re did my entrance for the 100 time
I love him
@ebon rune i would love to
Did I do this right it’s not done yet
I think I need someone to come to my island and position the trees the same way as the guy. Tbh
But is this right
i need help where should i move my houses to?
I need helpppp
two on the big mountain on left, one between the two mountains on the right, one just below the stairs on the left, one in the bit of land that juts out below the museum across the river
Whar about me/:
yes looks good
I looks exactly the same in my opinion, besides the moon. It looks good @frozen granite
Not my pic but it looks so good
what to add?
Add the new lief stuff
shrubs?
Ya or hedges
that’s what i meant
this is my entrance cause i dont know what to do with it
Entrances are hard
Especially cause the space from the airport and my RS is limited
Should an entrance be the first thing you work on?
mine has a 13 space gap, and its one off tot he left
I think entrances are important cause its the first impression of your island people will see
@faint path gorgeous island!!
I’ve seen someone with a bunny lake on here, but I forgot to screenshot it, does anyone have a similar feature on their island?
@woven drift ty!
Here's my entrance
Just finished pool area complete with inner tube rental for lazy river 🙂 Working on secret rooftop/poolside bar behind the two simple panels in the middle
does anyone have ideas for like the outsides of the villagers’ houses?
What are those lantern things I see off of peoples paths?
I have like no space between the airport and the plaza
Is it just me or are none of the pictures loading
Same.
Yep
Loads for me
Looking for islands that incorporate Bamboo!
I got some help/ideas from Sugaryboys, but i'm going to keep getting ideas so i can pick from a pool of them, Here's my island but with updated spots on what i decided to put there
I still have a couple empty spaces left on my island i dont know what to do with, if anyone would like to come and see them in person to help me, that'd be amazing
Can anyone reccommend 2-3 flowers that looks good everywhere? ( to match zen areas )
White roses
Lillies looks nice
white lillies and roses?
yes
White lillies, White roses and White Hyacinths
Anyone have ideas on what to add on the sides of the bridge? I tried using hyacinth lamps but I don’t think they work 😭
thank you! i'll save up seeds for them
Those stone dog statues @tender sentinel
Anyone have ideas on what to add on the sides of the bridge? I tried using hyacinth lamps but I don’t think they work 😭
@tender sentinel paper lanterns works like a charm
thank you! i'll save up seeds for them
@quartz flame I have tons of flowers I can give you. Dm me colors and dodo code and ill come drop them off!
Thank you! I’ll have to look for the last one since I don’t think I have it yet 🥰☺️
The stone dog statues would look wonderful!! If you need me to craft you some i can!!
Currently teraforming my island, anyone got any ideas of what I could do behind my town hall?
I'll need the mats but I can make as many as you need!!
🌲 entrance to my forest! 🌲
excuse the weeds i tend to time travel a lot and given up on them for now LOL~
@vagrant haven Your entrance is stunning!!
@warm kayak thank you !! 🥺💓
Maybe this big of a nature park?
I love the little moon chair, it really ties it together !!
@gentle breach I haven't even thought of that, thank you!!
that would actually go really well with my rough plan aha thank you
You could also put a godzilla fighting the mech here,
ooh yeah that would be good
can someone help me out with island design? im at a complete loss and im down to move anything and everything!
I can send pictures of a little neighborhood i have if it helps!!
Not to toot my own horn, but you could do a similar layout to me @tardy grove
Does anyone have any suggestions for what I could put in this area? Right now I only have that outdoor bath but I dont know what else to put. Any suggestions appreciated :)
you can make a layout which fits with the town hall if you make paths following its sides
hey do u guys know how big the museum is in game
7x4 I think
6 x 3 i think
its 4 x 7 i believe
I built a fence around mind, i can count the spaces, give me a moment
7x4
Im pretty sure about the 7
@red loom You could have the campsite up there in like a nature reserve area! That's kinda what mine is like atm! But if you didn't wanna move it. I always think an area with beehives is pretty cool 🙂
is it possible to relocate resident services or the airport, or do you just have to play with the cards you were dealt?
no, theyre immoveable
Can anyone help me with a neighborhood idea? I’m at a lost right now
Hey guys, just wondering if anyone could give me some inspiration for the bottom left quarter of my island, planning on moving the campsite somewhere in there
@red loom maybe add some hybrid flowers?
@red loom I’d place some more trees around in a semicircle shape
Thats kind of what mine is, im not sure what other kind of cozy neighborhood you could mean
An american kind?
@wheat trellis Moving the campsite would be interesting, but I don't know what I would do with the space where it is now then. If I did move the campsite, do you have any ideas as to what items would look good around it? I do like the beehive idea too. Thanks :)
@golden yacht what sort of island are you going for?
@merry fulcrum
you could do a new leaf style thing, with fences around the houses and having paths going along each side, i did that on my island
@honest oasis Ooh that could work too. Let me try!
@rocky dragon just a natural woodland type island I guess, worn brick paths and such
This kind of layout for each house, following paths that match your town hall @merry fulcrum
I was thinking about that I just didn’t know if I wanted to space them out or not
If you use fences, you can space them out nicely
@golden yacht I’d love to see an area with trees and statues and small ponds
also use paths to draw ur own grid tjats how i do it
video of a few wip spots on my island! let me know what you think(:
Does anyone have any reference or have their own Concert area or villager painting area?
i cant think of how to make them
Does anyone have cute ideas for what to do with extra DIY recipes? mine are starting to take over my house
i finished a new area today! https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1259552726611922944
that's amazing!
Can I pick somebody's brain for layout ideas lmao
@barren laurel amazing island! I noticed you have a space between Nook’s and the shop. What are you planning on adding there? 🙂
Anyone have screens of a graveyard idea or will let me come to their island to look?
superior graveyard queen 👑
I don't know what to do with this area next to my campsite (left side). Any ideas?
add a jungle gym lol or a picnic area
is there like a trick to be able to move a shop right next to an incline? lol
You cant
sucks so much
thats cutee
It happened the same to me I couldn’t place the incline right next to the waterfall :c
i also wish you could put a path at the bottom and top of the inclines, so they linked
Works for my bridges but none of my inclines
same my paths are half paths there now
does anyone have a kitchen set or pieces that they dont want ?
i could make you the entire ironwood set if you have the materials
🙈 ima just go on nookazon lol
Ant ideas for an entrance?
let’s gooo
@rocky dragon im not too sure, maybe vending machines or a coffee shop!
@merry bough look for ideas on reddit or google some good ones
@merry bough
Bahaha
@swift stag im defs gonna use the wall off idea, with an angled bridge!
anyone have any cute Able Sisters designs? like the outside of the shop
Any ideas for this area? Plssss help
i did the same but mine is surprisingly still 4 star
where are your other 2 villagers
my other two villagers are on the right side of my island. im still figuring out where im gonna let them move
its a little messy
i really need more inspiration, dont know where to start and look
Mind if i draw a mini plan using your map?
@barren laurel feeling like it should be a gourmet coffee garden ha
Am I the only one re doing everything at least once a week
Bahaha
@swift stag THAT'S GODLIKE FOR OFF CENTER RS
Dinosaur standee, some display fossils and a gift shop made with a stand @wild pelican
first things i can think of
this is my third time. > Am I the only one re doing everything at least once a week
@green mortar
Just re-did my entrance for the 5th 😭
everytime i see something better i hate my island
everytime I come here for inspiration, everytime I go away crying
@gentle breach thanks!! I tried a gift shop but it failed but imma try again
@wild pelican
@foggy folio I wanna see a nice plaza with a circular trees 🌳 and flowers 💐
I've always wanted an overlook into a waterfall ravine so I made one
ugh so cool..
@swift stag omg thank you so much SOO pretty!!
@wild pelican i am doing a tropical garden around my museum, that i plan to fill with statues when i get them ; - ;
Perfect @worldly notch 💗
Borrowed Ashleens island map, but @wild pelican
Pink = Complete fossil
Red = Gift shop stands
Blue = Dinosaur standee
Wow
@worldly notch Thats really amazing!
Omg imma be building all day/night long with these ideas
That kind of layout
this is great
i will try as soon as i find a location.
moving houses is giving me a lot of anxiety
@gentle breach thank you!!!
i been busy all day
No problem! Still working on my island
True or true, are you scared right now?
I have barely any space to work with on my museum :c
Me too!! I have too many things I wanted to have but my island is big enough
I'm trying to make this as natural as possible, does it look good?
For all these ideas
it looks good goofball
i had this small useless space so i made it into a sad little pizzeria
ty (:
Gotta love lucky
thats so cute
Cute
i love simple hang out places
Museum entrance
Question is, what's he doing in there o.O
Thats so cool
before i start building this, does anyone know if it'll work w anch limits? i know you can only have so many elevations or whatever.
Looks like a castle
🤩🤩
How do you guys decorate your yards for your villagers?
wat should i add (im going to add more gravestones and flowers)
love that empty grave
OKie
Has anyone tried making a casino?
kk
Ugh I shouldn't have bothered today.
Still working on the map, its pretty rough though ( MSPaint lol ) @shut kindle
I've destroyed more than I've created
@versed wadi hi!!!
I took a break from terraforming 🙃🙃 my drift joycon was driving me insane
its okay, im glad youre helping me
> Still working on the map, its pretty rough though ( MSPaint lol ) @shut kindle
@gentle breach
@versed wadi i posted my black market finally https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1259552726611922944?s=20
although of course now that i posted it i've tweaked it more
Nice!
Could I get some feedback on my campsite?
here i am struggling to make one nice looking waterfall
@scenic blaze oooooohh sooo niceee
its cute
@scenic blaze holy that’s amazing
@scenic blaze Gorgeous!! I'd say maybe add some flowers?? I'd say white or red lillies would look lovely!!
@warm kayak i'm adding black tulips, cosmos, and lilies!
It needs BLACK
can i get a link to the 3D map designer?
I tried to give my little cafe next to Able's a bit of an upgrade. but I think i've knackered it in the process.
Thanks! @woven drift
Oh that will look really nice!! Beautiful work ^^
Spooky!
@craggy folio really good! Maybe add a leaf pile? 🍂
I STOLE THE MOON
@versed wadi need another pair of eyes?
That would be helpful
here's bob chilling in his sushi costume
Give me 10 mins. Just trying something
Ooo I like that idea! @rocky dragon
I think it's the fridge that's breaking me.
does anyone have any market square ideas?
Here's a little nature walkway I made🥰
@craggy folio you could add some weeds/flowers/country fencing around tree bits : )
I've just done all rivers, working on cliffs now
I’ll try the country fencing 😁 @scarlet sonnet
@buoyant gate the walkway is adorable!! I love the touch of white flowers!! It looks really cute
Also bob chilling with a sushi costume beings me joy
What look are you going for @floral topaz ?
@rocky dragon going for natural fairy garden
im nor sure if its bc i need to get everything bloomed and grown
my island is currently a mess and im terraforming rn. would it be better if i keep the left side and move the middle houses on different levels or have the houses tangent to the river’s curve (which i happen to temporarily edited lol)
Anyone have any cottage island inspo?
Anyone got a good neighborhood situation happening or a good video reference? I am stumped...
@floral topaz the Star fragment furniture might help!
guys need advice! this is my entrance. Anything i should add/remove or move around?
@craggy folio this is what I did 😊
Ty!!
@scarlet sonnet it looks so pretty!! do you have the path qr??
@scarlet sonnet I really like that. Love the natural look
@mossy cairn here’s my neighborhood situation
The villagers in my town are weirdos today, Pompom was minding her business singing and Hamlet was right behind her being as creepy as possible. And Celia? What u doin?
thoughts on marshal’s new spot? im probably gonna add nova lights to the tree line to light it up a bit
all i want is the country fencing and my miles store thing hasnt had it in forever im gonna cry
Here guysssss @hollow dew
I finished my cafe today any opinions?
DUUUDE
That looks so good
Can you send me that rug code?!?!?
that rug is sooo cute
@nova wraith DM me, I made it on ac patterns
that’s beautiful!! @wild pelican
wait do u need 5 stars for kk?
3
Here's my progress of my Spa I really like that I replaced this with bamboo fence. Should the bamboo doll stay or should I replace it with the noddle slide?
@wild pelican it's not letting me DM you
Honestly i'm thinking about going fuck fishing and getting rid of my rivers
Innit I had a furniture dump to get up to 3 @magic cypress
@shrewd umbra I feel like one pond is plenty
does it matter where i put stuff?
Dont put everything in the same spot
I’d like to move my museum to where the houses are on the top of the cliff and make a nice entrance area. Where should I move the houses to?
Is there a map planner that works on mobile?
Put the houses on the left and right
@nova wraith I see that’s weird.. I can’t message you either. Let me try to add you
Okie!
does anyone have inspo for a dedicated trading spot?
Anyone willing to help me come up with a layout. Ive been trying for days and Im at a loss. Dm for a ss of my map :)
I’m,, destroying my island to start over again lmao I’m too insecure about it 💀
trying to move all my houses where those 6 currently are (sorry it’s a mess), any ideas for what to put on the area to the left of them?
Thank you everyone for your patience. The tour will start very shortly. 😊
have a good tour 
That’s amazing
@night fjord Thanks brotha! 🙂
I'll have some updates on what I mentioned yesterday later today
Omg, covid19😩 😩 😩
does anyone have any nice garden layouts or pics? it can be very simple, just looking for inspo
can you guys DM me pictures of your Cafes pls:)
Hey any thoughts on my museum entrance, thinking of putting in some street lamps eventually : )
@crude hatch limit is 8 bridges and 8 inclines 🤷🏻♂️
it’s still a work in progress but what shpuld i add in my heart pond area
post/DM me pictures of ur cafe! Need inspiration!
@scarlet sonnet omg i love itt : )
@woven drift
rain makes it very pleasing too
there's usually more weeds around
the spruce surrounding is just a winner, I got that from someone else originally too
Anyone have cute neighborhoods?? I’m looking for inspo lol. Preferably urban themed
Here’s my campsite area
@rotund creek ty!!
@untold mason i'm turning a house into a cafe
what did you guys do on your pier?
@hidden kindle I placed zucker and marinas homes next to it and they share the front yard together
Looking for nice entrance inspo. My resident services is to the right side of my airport. I like the design of my island but the entrance is severely lacking 
Anyone willing to help me come up with a layout? Ive been trying for days and Im at a loss. Dm for a ss of my map :)
cute! (edit: and functional, gonna make that bait 😂 )
Bruh im getting frustrated ive been trying to work on my entrance for 3 days and it always looks off
I legit have no idea what to do
@dapper thicket what exactly are you trying to go for
My entrance is so basic
I wanna go for a natural themed island and i dont want waterfalls cause theyre loud
@rotund creek that looks so nice! I’m thinking about moving my shops around to make for a better entrance, but I’ve moved stuff around so many times already. I’m out of ideas
Same @tame bloom all these people make me feel bad about my island
And it doesnt help that RS is very close
this is my entrance, you hop over the waterfall to get to nooks
I have like no creativity in this game lmao
@hidden kindle Nice I've never seen someone go for that idea yet
I need shop ideas honestly..
I just want my entrance to not look like garbage
@dapper thicket That's my natural entrance. you could omit the waterfall 🙂
@dapper thicket That's my natural entrance. you could omit the waterfall 🙂
@versed wadi im gonna need that DIY code 😂
i cant even do things too grand cause RS is so close 😦
Trying to come up with some dance club/concert space 🥺
Im contemplating restarting just so RS is far away but thats a lot of work
@dapper thicket you probably have a layout like mines if your RS is close, Ugh the struggles 😭
@versed wadi im gonna need that DIY code 😂
@hidden kindle I get asked that all the time and I can't find it again 😦 I thought I got it from nooksguide.com but haven't been able to find it since.
What is RS
Im not going to but i cant do anything too fancy since theres like no space
oh noooooo
@dapper thicket Mcgibbon's RS is really close too but his entrance is natural and really well done
It's 11 spaces
Let me count mine
Does anyone have a cute idea for something to put in a 7x6 area near the plaza?
But I reckon you could do something similar with 9
@versed wadi can you show your map
mine is 9 lol
What is RS
@tiny star Resident Services
@wild pelican
Mine is 13 spaces away
Looking for someone that can design an amazing island for me paying loads of nmt !
Ohhh thanks
Np
I love the mini-islands you have on the right @versed wadi
i need close RS entrance inspo
Whew you guys have suck beautiful work!!
entrance!
Guys
I have 13 spaces to work with and im struggling eee
I love the mini-islands you have on the right @versed wadi
@tame bloom They're not amazing at ground level
An I flex something other than my island here? This is my fave channel
I GOT THERE FINALLY. ALL ZODIACS. Through power of friendship and lots of giveaways
THE zodiac set is complete
lol i remember the irl flexes yesterday
All i have are the garlands and taurus bathtub
@pure nimbus the juggleboy
@zinc hull any chance you could send a pic?
That's them in game
@manic lantern yeah lol
They still look nice
I've been working on upgrading my cafe today, here's the before:
I might end up blocking RS from the front and having it wrap around to the side
I’m trying to move Nook’s Cranny, but the new location overlaps the old location sana I can’t place... an I going to have to do this in two steps over 2 days for $100,000?
And after…
All these entrances are making me wanna start over
@robust sluice sadly yes
Weeeeh. Thank you for the confirmation
Here’s my basic entrance
I would 100% start over if it didnt take so long especially cause i dont like time traveling
@versed wadi They're both so good - even the old one! what are those steps - is that a custom design?
@rotund creek yeah it’s the fencing on both sides that limits my space! I like the fencing surrounding the resident services but the zen area has to move 
Let’s see some shop ideas!! I really need help on what to do with my shops 😭😭😭
SOMEONE SAID ZEN GSRDEN? SORRY FOR ALWAYS POSTING THE SAME BUT I HAVENT HAD THE CHANCE TO RENOVATE IT
@zinc hull wow thanks!
How do you guys make all of the second and third stories at your entrances not look weird? I love they way they look but I wouldn’t know what to do with the space behind them
@wild pelican show us what you have so far
what should I do with this weird area to the left of my entrance before my museum area
rip me just realized im missing the simple panel recipie
I need help on what flowers to put around my shop area — I just put random flowers atm but I think it would look nicer with a specific set of flowers
Hyacinthsss
@pure nimbus its not a recipe tho lol
I love hyacinths
Here's my tropical entrance
@manic lantern oh i thought it was lmao
Is there anyway to stop weeds from growing bigger?
I really want to visit someone’s island, is anybody willing to give me a tour of theirs just for fun?
@versed wadi They're both so good - even the old one! what are those steps - is that a custom design?
@obsidian tinsel Yeah, I got it from this guy: Creator ID: MA-2983-6772-8811
@rotund creek that looks nice! I like the sand design
i had problems with it yesterday but i think i like my able sisters area now!
I want my island to be a tropical ish forest type and i want the entrance to not look idiotic but i have 13 spaces to work with
@wild pelican this isn't mine, but this is a cute shop idea
Does anyone have any cafe ideas? Or ideas for big places in general?
@woven drift Get lost with me ❤
Not mine but its really cute
Hey! Anyone got any ideas of what I can put outside the front of my house? Kinda lost for ideas
yea
@rotund creek may I suggest spawning some rocks in your zen garden? I got lucky there
it was a little tough with it being such a small platform, but i like how crowded it is lol
Gosh you guys make the best things
@tidal belfry this is a good question I would also like answers for
@rotund creek i just put small pathways behind the cliffs and dont put a ton of stuff there, its hard to explain but you can see it in action if you want to come visit
Im in the process of moving all of the villager houses to the beach so i have more space to work with
Meanwhile I havent renovated enough to show new things so I try to fit in by reposting these
I need ideas for this place (trying to do a tropical theme island) 😩
Cafes are the answer to any dilemma
If bridges could go between cliffs my island would be so different
Thrres not much new I'll ever be able to show you guys with an island this complete ;-;
Has anyone put a villager house on the beach for non-terraforming purposes? If so, I'd like to see, just moved one there and don't know how to decorate their area
Cafes are the answer to any dilemma
or playgrounds!
Oo an all cat island
the back of a cliff
@dapper thicket I have depleted that option sorry
more cliff backs (stairs just to the right)
@woven drift I love your eastern style cafe!
Low res but if you guys need a garden/farming area you can take inspiration from this
WHAT ARE THOSE candle statue things
Lmao everyone goes "do a zen garden seal! Do a cafe! Do a restaurant! Do a cemetery!" Godh what other things can I do, i have all that
@hidden kindle thank you!!
How can you guys even think of all these things, I have such issues thinking of anything since the Island is soo big
np, hope that helps 🙂
Restaurant
I get so overwhelmed i cant even lay a path down without overthinking
@native anchor the island is too small for me I want it to be 4x bigger at least
Oh god, I just cant think of where I want everything
4x bigger is waaayyyy too much space
Lmao everyone goes "do a zen garden seal! Do a cafe! Do a restaurant! Do a cemetery!" Godh what other things can I do, i have all that
@woven drift black market, demonic altar to your favorite villager, desert oasis, deforested forest (a bunch of sad stumps), solar power field
@dapper thicket take a breather for a second. Everyone performs there worst when they're trying to force something into existence lol
@dapper thicket awww I wish we could terraform while visiting each other I'd love to do some with you and voice chat and tell you it's okay
@woven drift do a Japanese garden with a zig zag bridge!
What are these
I need immediately
I have no cool diys
Fuckkk 18
I dont even have the signs
ok imma eat and then give u all my stones
Maybe I should try to do some more Terraforming, Making my planned neighbourhood a bit more roomy. I just,,,, HATE the terraforming atm
@woven drift do a pond
i can craft almost everything popular, if anyone needs something crafted you can bring materials and ill craft it for you
heres my "can craft" list: https://nook.exchange/u/freda/can-craft
Does anyone have a fairycore island or some inspo for islands like that-
Should i use this path for my forest, all dark path, or checkered??
what month can you get the hyacinth lamp recipe?
@grim cosmos sounds good
@woven drift The Portland Japanese garden has a bridge like this one. It's the most beautiful and inspiring Japanese garden to me.
@hidden kindle could you make me some of those angled sign posts and the signs you can put decals on?
@hidden kindle could you make me some of those angled sign posts and the signs you can put decals on?
@dapper thicket yeah DM me with how many you want, i can tell you what materials to bring
Where should I put the staircase(s)?
This community is so wholesome i love it
^^^
The Portland Japanese garden has a bridge like this one. It's the most beautiful and inspiring Japanese garden to me.
@obsidian tinsel I LOVE the portland japanese garden!!
Moest of it
@hidden kindle I got a shrine/oasis for ankha? And deforested cemetary
Except people charging 1 mil nmt for a chair lmao
I have this random area between my plaza and nooks cranny. I wanted to make bike rental there, but there is too much space and I have no idea what would actually fit there. Main island theme is nature/foresty/overgrown.
@obsidian tinsel woah thank you so much for sharing I'm from the Netherlands no such things here
@obsidian tinsel I LOVE the portland japanese garden!!
@hidden kindle it's the best place to go in Portland! I want to go back when this crisis is over so bad.
Portland is us no?
yep! Portland, Oregon
Can I visit someone's island? PM me your dodo
Can you tell where I haven’t decorated yet HAHA
My heart weeps for those who are struggling currently!
Lmao
portland japanese garden is my IRL island inspo 😂
Would someone like to draw or say where to put the staircase(s) on the toxicroak patterns preferably?
That's a jungle xD
This one picture is all the inspo i need
@hidden kindle wanna visit each other? I tried to make my island oriental. I'm chinese so it has some chinese themes but lots of it is zen japanese
Reposting, but anyway. What do you think of this setup? I'm a bit stuck with creating something like a nightclub, so maybe someone has something similar on their island.
Let's exchange ideas??
Teraforming is so stressful for me BC I feel like I'm gonna make my Island look super bad :(
@woven drift would you ever do walkthroughs of your island?? You have the same starting layout as me and your island looks so beautiful! (I need inspiration help so bad haha)
@hidden kindle wanna visit each other? I tried to make my island oriental. I'm chinese so it has some chinese themes but lots of it is zen japanese
@woven drift if youre on in a few hours, for sure!! you can come visit while im crafting some stuff, but i have to run errands after
@surreal geyser sameee
@woven drift You have such a good demeanor and personality. just wanted to point that out lol
Sure sure @obtuse mantle Actually! I've been ill but I have a yt channel with pokemon content. I've been thinking about making a really nice walkthrough tour video with tips and offers to make diy items for people! Thank you for your support
@woven drift Portland, Oregon also has a Chinese garden too! I took some photos. Maybe they will inspire you! https://www.instagram.com/p/B1bXBvUHJr6/
@dapper thicket it doesn't help when I see everybody else's Island looking boss
Thank you so much Katie you're the best
Oml right
Anyone have an observation deck/ star watching spot
@rotund creek oh yeah I see what you mean, thanks
There’s quite a few things I want to add to my island... but I can’t get those things to happen because I don’t have the items 😭
Would try to add more layers to it
I kind of want to make this path now that I went back to the photos. 👀
Literally i have so many cool ideas but no recipes
@obsidian tinsel sorry for my stalking behaviour I just liked tour post with my inactive Instagram hahahaha
@worldly notch I haven’t started mine yet but I’m beginning to make one I added some telescopes and a crescent moon pond the pond is sooo cute and can still spawn fish
@dapper thicket I can help you
Please tell me what you need and I'll make it
Do you have spare diys?
@woven drift awesome!! I’ve been looking all over for walkthroughs with my layout and I can never find any!! I’m so glad someone has the same layout haha
i hate my garden sm like i want to change it but i cant be bothered to move everything
Its been raining on my island for 5 days straight
i'll probably move everything one day and make it the way i want
@obtuse mantle our layout is easily one of the most balanced. It leaves so much more room than double south imo. No hate of course
You're blessed with one of the best layouts
I'm thinking of dividing my island into sections. I want one spot to have villager housing, a shopping center, a museum and relaxing space, and then a beach hangout. Would this be a good idea for a layout?
what hurts my soul is I can’t move buildings like 2 inches forward because the game thinks i’m trying to put it on top of an existing building
@woven drift Yeah definitely. My island is all split up to different sections
@obtuse mantle my solution: move it to the beach first
I can help finance some of your projects
Ok cool. I made 4 million yesterday so I'm trying to renovate the hell out of everything
@woven drift is an OG
does anyone have spare white cosmos they dont want anymore? i donated all of my extras a couple weeks ago and now i need more after cloudy posted last night 😂
@woven drift i might actually just move all the buildings to the beach so I can start all over haha
Anyone have a Harry Potter themed island? Would love to see it if there is one!
So I'm pretty much set on the financial part
When in doubt just add water
Yes katie! @obtuse mantle before that, show me the map so I may advise you
I have the money but im also 2 mil in debt
is it just me, or do the white cosmos remind anyone of daisies, and the yellow cosmos remind me of buttercups?
Theres no need to start over ever

Yes @dim copper
@frozen axle You're from the water nation confirmed
I can’t wait to show you guys my entryway I worked on it for like 6 hrs last night
YES they do remind me of daisies!
This is gonna take me so many weeks though haha
It’s still not done but 🤡
We are the water
@last marsh im excited to see itttt
@woven drift You cant rush perfection haha
I want even more water
Anyone have a Harry Potter themed island? Would love to see it if there is one!
@candid zodiac I am working on some Harry Potter areas, but I can share some twitter posts that aren't mine!

Same
MORE. WATER. NOW
lol
Some areas of my island
And also, I built on old wooden bridge awhile ago but I want to get rid of it. Is it possible to do so?
Ive moved 3/10 of all the houses to the beach
i think the worst part of animal crossing without time travel is deciding you want to do a huge project and then having to wait several days to move all the pieces before you can even start working on it lol
@woven drift demolish it via nook 30k
Someone should’ve told me not to be too close
@woven drift
@woven drift will do. Thanks
i wish there was a grid system thing like pocket camp 😔
i think the worst part of animal crossing without time travel is deciding you want to do a huge project and then having to wait several days to move all the pieces before you can even start working on it lol
@hidden kindle omg yes. I try not to tt at all, but I did yesterday to get the cherry blossom recipes and it sped up my library project so much ;_;
I'm thinking of adding bamboo tress next to the paths. But other than that I'm happy with the way this turned out
Im scared of time traveling
Tbh I'm gonna draw my island out and then plan it with paper and pen
I feel like im gonna break something
Oh sorry guys. For those who are in awe of my island and feel bad in any way please be reminded that I do in fact time travel. I hope it doesnt tske away from my sense of style and effort!
has anyone got tips in how to landscape your island because my island looks so ugly and i feel like restarting
I wanted my RS to be close for the convenience but now its inconvenient af
nothing will break lol but weeds will grow and theres a chance there could be roaches in ur house which u can step on lol @dapper thicket
@woven drift youre Welcome!
@hidden kindle omg yes. I try not to tt at all, but I did yesterday to get the cherry blossom recipes and it sped up my library project so much ;_;
@obsidian tinsel did you go back to get the recipes? i’m confused lol
what else should I do here???
@woven drift haha sunfish looks dead
I do time travel and that is all I'll say about it before I get stung by bees
I time travel so that i can see all my flower breeding efforts culminate in failure. 10/10 would tt again
HAHAHAH SUN FISH DO LOOK LIKE THAT
any entrance ideas for nooks cranny!!! PLS I NEED HELP
@obsidian tinsel did you go back to get the recipes? i’m confused lol
@dim copper yes, if you go back to April 1-10 you can pop balloons and get the recipes.
@rotund creek aw thank you I get a lot of hate. I have spent 700 hours
NO WAYYYYYYY
anyone have any grand museum entrances?
I love the sunfish
does anyone have tips on having that cottage aesthetic on ur island
I have a trex by my entrance to the museum
@woven drift I like my neighborhood but everything else is just so “eh to me” and makes me wanna redo the entirety of my island except the neighborhood lol
NO WAYYYYYYY
@dim copper just be careful, research tt so you know the consequences if you haven't done it before! ^^
