@tawdry sierra what do you have so far?
@vast cradle town area museam, i wasa thinking a mushroom garden in the corner, not much
@tawdry sierra you cant shape rivers like that
@mortal ocean wait, I don't see whats wrong?
@tawdry sierra Ideas for empty areas (© lulu): Park, cafe, hiking trail, graveyard, occult summoning grounds, rest area, garden, amusement park, headquarters of the nook cartel, library, restaurant, altar to meme turtle
@versed mural thanks for the ideass!
I was wondering what people find necessary that they have. Like money tree farm area or a fishing area with bait set up by the dock
Someone who has a 3 tier neighbor can you please send me a picture of your map for that area!!
@tawdry sierra you have so many options then! other people already said what I was gonna suggest tho lol
@mild roost

@feral adder foreign fruit tree orchard
@carmine depot
@tawdry sierra Ideas for empty areas (© lulu): Park, cafe, hiking trail, graveyard, occult summoning grounds, rest area, garden, amusement park, headquarters of the nook cartel, library, restaurant, altar to meme turtle
@versed mural Ok i need to make a occult summoning area, im stealing this. XD time to design a pentagram
Thats a good one. And i know ppl have their rock farms.
@humble echo tysm!!
np!
Guys how do yall have your island in the island designer website thing
Thats a good one. And i know ppl have their rock farms.
@feral adder I haven’t learned how to make new rocks spawn yet
how wide should I make the moat for a little "castle" (not like the width of the island inside, but like the width of the river itself
show me yalls non waterfall island entrances pls 😄
How big is the castle?
my progress❤️
I’d make it hoppable for easy access
@stuck crescent
not excessive so I allow it
its gonna be pretty small, pretty much just gonna be a couple houses inside, plus a wall and silos as guard towers
Gibbs throwing shade right back
@nova drum (better be a futurama reference) you just destroy them with an axe and food and then fill up all the spaces on your island where you dont want them to spawn. I believe they need like a 9x9 area or something like that idk
what should i put in this little empty space??
How does my entrance look im worried i went ott
That looks crazy
i love that!! @versed mural
Can anyone send a map of their island I need ideas on where to put my villagers houses
You should have a little plaza near the neighborhood
I have a river/lake but no water fall entry
Very simple entrance work in progress
yall i just got meringue
@woven drift thanks lol my entire island is now terraformed and planted everything possible just gotta get one more star lol just need to figure out what decor i want laying about
@bold star
how can i do a good entrance when my plaza is right next to my airport?? pls help :(
@untold quarry I have the same problem so I made my entrance simple
@untold quarry can you send a pic of your map so we know how much space you’ve got to work with?
how can i do a good entrance when my plaza is right next to my airport?? pls help :(
@untold quarry
Make a pathway using cliffs looks very good imo
this is my plan, should i do wood path or brick path
@untold quarry look at mine up there. My nook shop and plaza are super close to the airport
can you connect two bridges together (for example a 10 block long river connected by 2 5 block long bridges)
How's this now everyone but more original? :)
this is my plan, should i do wood path or brick path
@woven drift you can only have 2 river mouths you do know that? :/ south south, south east or south west
@woven drift have you thought about using the terracotta
@untold quarry mine are close together too
@woven drift you can only have 2 river mouths you do know that? :/ south south, south east or south west
@inner cedar yeah the 3rd mouth was a mistake
@woven drift have you thought about using the terracotta
@faint cloud hmmm not really
no
Huh?
sorry peachy lmao
Lmao its chill
Thoughts everyone :) changed it p now so has front facing waterfalls what everyone think?
what should i do with a plaza like this
guys what path should i use (river mouth to the left was a mistake)
This is my wip diner, I don't know what to use for the booths. I imagine it would be like karaoke or like they would have live performers some days.
Maybe turn it into a full organized orchard since you have so many trees there already
@shell gyro looks great!
Thanks
What do you mean weirdly shaped @patent cliff
can anyone help me arrange flowers on my island? 
@woven drift whats ur island theme
they're all at the beach because I can't make up my mind
i just literally spread them randomly
@floral topaz trying to go for a beach resort/village theme
@shell tiger It’s just curves around on the edges and it’s right next to a cliff
I’ve got this whole area for my campsite but not sure what I wanna do with it
put a swinging chair there, that’s what i would do
Idk I just put flowers where they look good, not even same kind of flowers together @woven drift But I do go for tones that go together like here
@woven drift I would just match flowers according to what's nearby. So if you have lighter coloured buildings in an area you might want to use whites and yellows, oranges and reds for stuff that's a bit darker, and then for the darkest I'd use blues/blacks and maybe certain red flowers like lilies
@pearl palm add what u would want if u where camping!
@shell tiger the tones are great i love it
that's a board statement, like what are you looking for
@shell tiger i like it alot
if you give us an area to work with from a screenshot we can advise you
@floral topaz Ty 🙂
I can invite you to my island too
Ideas I don’t have any in mind just need something to work on
well yeah but most times people are busy building their own things to go visit an island
Maybe the river and how it bends*
so screenshots in here is your best chance of getting advice
I have such poor taste in arrangement 😭
Anyone have good camp site inspiration?
it's okay, my placement of flowers is also garbage. it takes time to learn
@lone iron
I’ve seen a lot of people used that sort of raised deck custom path, does anyone have the code for those??
@lone iron Idk if its your kind of thing, but this is mine 🙂
same, I'm sure someone must have the code in here
omg flattening out is such a pain lmao
yuuuup
😮 why are you flattening?
i have a plan don’t worry haha
thank god lol
(left river mouth was a mistake ignore that haha)
From an idea, to a doodle, to a finished product
beautiful
Ok so I’m pretty much done I just need to add stuff in the back
I wasn't sure where to ask this question, but does anyone know if I place a path down first and then try to move a building (like the campsite onto dirt) will that work? or will it remove the pathing
any suggestions for this cliff, or should I just take it down?
Completely finished entrance now flowers and all :)
i’m gonna have so much wood after flattening out lmao
@late summit removes the pathing I believe
@woven drift maybe exchange it with some trees
Is there anyway to get rid of the grass?
in fact, I'm 99% sure it does
I’m gonna guess no?
nope, sadly
@molten swallow so I should demolish the cliff?
Thanks
@woven drift hmm, yeah i would do that, but try to plant something on top and see how it looks
you can kinda cover it on the left side with flowers or something tall in front of it though
that way it looks a bit better
can we move villagers houses? If so can someone explain how?
@wanton kernel you could always put bushes too
They can go up against the cliff edge and buildings
@real trellis you can move villager homes by talking to Tom nook
@burnt minnow thanks so much!
so I unlocked terraforming yesterday and I'm currently working on my entrance, any tips/opinions ?
hmmmm
it's good, it maybe could use a bit more decoration but I couldn't tell you what
What should I put (if anything) in front of my Nooks Plaza?
does anyone have any potted plants or planters that look good around the island? i will buy
I was gonna put a zen bridge for my waterfall but I really underestimated how large it is
(left river mouth was a mistake ignore that haha)
@woven drift which tool are you using to plan your island? it looks so nice!
@versed wadi maybe a table like an outdoor table with some goods on it
Finally got some video of my main area on the island.
This clip is the entrance, town center, museum, playground/park area, rest stop, and ending with tias yard and cafe!
it doesn't need much though, it's already looking good
your entrance should set a theme for the rest of your island! It should also direct you on a path you want people to take when they come to your island.
what should i add on the grass area? (behind the palm) going for a tropical ish island
Here’s the other half, consisting of the catalogue/trade area, main fountain, Zuckers lil sushi bar, dragos arcade, and Ketschups yard!
more flowers for sure @granite comet maybe use different colored flowers to make a palette for your island
Heya, for curiosity, what's the limit of flower colors you guys would put?
how do yall get so good islands omg
@granite comet nothing thAat looks so awesome already
yup, for the flowers I'm working on it, since my island is in the purple shades, I need to make some hybrids first haha
perfect!
but thanks guys !
It looks like stardew valley
@odd plaza I think any amount can work, you just have to have a clear transition between style and colours in areas. But if you just want one consistent theme across your island I'd say maybe 5/6 at most
the things you guys post are top tier
@night fjord Ah alright thank you so much ^^
I feel like my design is garbage 
it's a good channel full of talented people 
I wanna try inviting ppl to see my island and possibly give thoughts. I do wanna make a Cafe LeBlanc
@odd plaza again though, just opinion, feel free to use as many colours as you think looks good
@odd plaza I like to group by color. I used all red flower types (and orange pansies cause they’re a reddish color) in my main area. And I match flower colors to my villagers/their houses
^^
I’m making a studio ghibli (spirited away) inspired bridge coming along so far!
what should i add here behind the palm tree? going for a tropical look but its so hard :((
so im surrounding my museum with golden roses, what kind of fence would y’all do around that?
@molten swallow if you have a hammock maybe that?
@snow seal once more loving that so much 100/10
@vital flame imperial fence. The red and gold look great together
@molten swallow a resting area perhaps
@night fjord yeah thats good, but i have one almost just by that area
@night fjord @solar anvil Thank you both :)
@humble echo thank youu
any suggestions for my public pool?
beach towel?
I finally did a video walkthrough of my market https://twitter.com/lulubellsy/status/1261000158025666560?s=21
full market walkthrough! #AnimalCrossing #ACNH #NintendoSwitch https://t.co/YQPttuPjvC
when i craft any type of fence does it just give me 1 of that fence?
Made a farmer's market outside my cranny : ) have to wait until tomorrow for more stock to arrive from my catalog for it!
@woven drift maybe floor lights
Expand it out a bit and add loungers! @woven drift
Does anyone knows if this will work? Or is it too close to the plaza? The website doesn't tell me unfortunately :c
ah floor lights! I have those
when i craft any type of fence does it just give me 1 of that fence?
@analog cave if u craft it it gives u 10
oh worm
@versed wadi what about a sign post, the one that points in a million directions? Like right in the middle with bushes around it
@solar anvil not much room for expansion because it's near the river and where the beach goes
@inner cedar what site is that? it looks kinda fresh
i finally have enough motivation to work on my island now that im not completely broke
How can i make my campsite area look more «tropical»
@inner cedar what site is that? it looks kinda fresh
@robust dew https://bobacupcake.itch.io/island-planner
@inner cedar i think you need at least 1 tile between the end of the bridge and a neighboring structure unfortunately :(
@molten swallow use a lot of the log set
i finished removing all the trees in my island! i now have like 90 of each wood haha
@versed mural Nice idea. I’ll give it a go
@humble echo i like that, thanks
@inner cedar i think you need at least 1 tile between the end of the bridge and a neighboring structure unfortunately :(
@vital flame oh noes. Unfortunately I can't make it symmetrical to the corner of the plaza when it's one tile away. and further away I can't make because my airport is right behind that XD
I need help. I'm redoing the path for my able sister shop area. which should I do? grey vs pink. And place it on top of which path? Top row is Grass, Middle is arch and dark path, bottom is light dirt.
@woven drift did you grow a beard while doing it?
did someone say beard
Would love some critique/suggestions on my main village area! (The big empty spot is for catalogue and trading but I’m gonna make it a farmers/flea market
@inland solar I’m gonna need you to hand over the creator code for those paths 🙂
🙂
@versed mural u wouldn’t believe what i’m about to say
...
it only took 30 min to remove all rivers and trees lmao
Holy
@inland solar grey on arch or grass looks better imo
nothing holy about that, twig sold their soul to do that 
that's a fair enough size for a campsite
XD @versed wadi
Im making a cotton candy stall, does anyone have any inspiration for me?
most people don't make them much bigger than that
@inland solar I like gray on all options
I'm tempted to start my island all over again 😭
I mean... design-wise
Hey guys do we have an issue with showing off items that may not be released yet? I was given some wedding arches and thought they looked nice
Also, some trees (cedar best) could spruce that up a bit @woven drift
I wont share if it's not okay!
@woven drift that was my idea, instead i flattened it all out
i think it'd be allowed cause i've seen people post their wedding areas here but idk
@woven drift yeah I meant I'm gonna do some relocating
ohhh
this is gonna eat my bells away TwT
^^^^ ye
@woven drift people post wedding shnaz in here everyday. You’re fine bb
if u have the time then go for it @woven drift
Thoughts on my zen garden? (still a work in progress)
@chilly warren thats amazing, how is that even possible
Anybody have good ideas for a workout area?
how dare a pink rose breed onto my island!!!
@chilly warren I dislike you as a person because you put Hearths outdoors 
If I’ve gotta shoot confetti balloons out of the sky and fish for champagne flutes then I’m well and truly time travelling into July
can someone help me remove all my tree stumps lmao
@woven drift i dont even know what that thing is to be honest 😂
Aww thank you @versed mural
@chilly warren it's supposed to be hanging from a ceiling
@snow seal omg i love it! I might just use this idea myself!
anyone who has extra time wanna help me remove all my tree stumps lmaooo
@chilly warren some stepping stones?
@woven drift Oh xD I had no idea, i'll store it back then.. My house is japanese themed anyway
Okay then, here is the wedding arch. I thought it fit so nicely here :D
THE perfect addition for this area
@chilly warren keep it outside! mine is outside too!
@fervent oar yeah i had that in mind, still looking for some nice patterns :)
@versed mural if the wedding event is similar to the easter one,
OOOOFFFF
Oh, hahaha
why is everyone's design so good... 
Thanks for the isabelle reacts. I believe one isabelle react stands for 1 star
i really want a wedding arch but its so expensive
ikr, makes my island feel like trash
Anyone have a garden center where they make hybrids?
So I got my island 5 stars approved you guys?
6 now
I was dead set against time travelling, and then on my 3rd day of collecting Easter eggs instead of fish I noped my way into the future.,
i has 4 stars before i flattened out lol @woven drift
i have 4 stars, but think im gonna drop to 2 since im removing all flowers
(i looked up irl pics of a hearth, now i get it xD Might put it in my house)
Omg smart why didn’t I do that
Need help im not sure how to make this look nice 😦 im going for a nice neighborhood but i can seem to find anything to cover the grass
I've been 5 stars for a while but I dont think its befause it looks like but because I use a lot of items ^^
I had 5 stars before I flattened mine. one lily of the valley sprouted
looks like I'm gonna flatten again 
Work in progress ☺️✌️
4* 4 L1F3!
same
WIP yet it looks better than my entire island already 
Workout ideas?
can someone help me remove all this shit lmao
@woven drift I can help
I would if I wasn’t at work 😭
I'll take your hardwoods. I'm low on stock
Just finished my digsite!! Feel free to take Inspo!!😄
can someone help me remove this lmaooo
I'll take your hardwoods @woven drift
i’m talking bout the tree stumps lol
oh
GIBBS! Big brain moment...
”4est Punk”
kaypee is the silliest
@versed mural I like your style!
Finally someone moving in campsite so I can see how it is with the tent up asdfgfk
nvm its graham inside Ive never noped so fast
Shall I take some newish pics and share them. I really wanna renovate some areas but got no clue how
yeah don't blame you
i really need that campsite sign but i'm too lazy
samee
this is my wip map but it’s raining here and i just caught a coelacanth so if anyone wants to do a self guided tour/wander/fish you’re welcome to visit
final memories of my island before I flatten it
what does flatten mean? im not english.. sorry
damn, looks pretty complex
I FORGOT TO TAKE A PIC BEFORE FLATTENING
@molten swallow that means starting over to design it
redid the entrance to my stargazing beach!
@woven drift ohh ok thanks
I am about to terraform my island, is a 3rd level necessary for fish and stuff?
@fierce dome ooo can I see the stargazing beach
@night fjord looks complex but actually pretty basic once you see it
that's why I want to start over
fair enough
@bronze pier no, a second level river is enough
So I think I've improved
REALLY dont like how my island looks on map, any tips?😬
i was lowkey obsessed with this map but i couldnt do it lol
@humble echo here's the current state! It definitely needs some nova lights, and I'm also debating customizing the color of the placed items
@night fjord
@fierce dome that's so pretty!!
@molten swallow your map looks really nice actually! i like it alot
@woven drift aw thanks!
@agile girder ugh your map is gooooorgeous
ty!! 
@woven drift i swear i wish i was that good of a decorator 🥺
@grim cosmos remind me to send that to you
@woven drift that looks sooo cute
No way @woven drift!
send what!!!
ALSO I HEARD NEGATIVITY
I suck at designing
EEEEEKKKK ^^^^
Does anyone some cool design codes for the simple panel that fits with an arcade? I cant find any on the internet 😭😭
yeah!! I love my ugly island!
@grim cosmos campsite sign
@rich mural I ended up not using black biotope planters :( does it not fit?
bruh where do people get the campsite signs, I need one D:
I sure do love my blandly designed island
is there a place like reddit or here to actually look at the maps to gain inspiration to design ours?
@patent sky I meant sorry
r there anyways to fill up a diagonal edge w pathing?
Caampsite sign is pocket cam0
@north schooner i got it in a balloon a think,
oooh ok
@woodlegs YouTube!
Rating?
Oh lol hahah hmm I think I would still prefer black tbh it's too ornamental garden and feminine for the rest of the aesthetic I think
You get ìt if you link them together i cant remember how i did it
Good point.
@woven drift lmk if you need the planters in black I have them
Does anyone some cool design codes for the simple panel that fits with an arcade? I cant find any on the internet sobsob
I have them too just debating it. I'll give it a go and show you. Thank you so much @patent sky
Can I see how some of y’all spaced out your Nooks Cranny and Able Sisters?!
@north schooner if you have pocket camp on your phone you find the code to get the sign
@wanton kernel they’re either side of my RS
lol i can send you one tmrw
On cliffs
@bronze pier for the first week or two this channel was more focused on maps (mainly mini map show offs) but as time went on more people posted stuff like mini areas (good pics + bad camera pics that are way too far away but i'm cranky about those) .. if you used the island/image search it used to be good as well but around 300 pages it was harder to really use and now it's basically SUPER hard to use cause it's over 1.1k pages .. so i'd suggest youtube / twitter as well
You dont have to play it just download it for the code then delete maybe
@north schooner im pretty sure you can get it from #furniture-trade for the low
should i remove all my flowers and make areas with items and then let flowers grow again?
@wanton kernel by map?
@wanton kernel you can see mine here in the first 10s https://twitter.com/lulubellsy/status/1260988737216892929?s=21
@patent sky if you want the hyacinth lamps and the biotopes in the pic you can have them since you're so kind hahah
i should probably make my nooks area as it resides in the abandoned area that used to be supported by ables
Ah it's okay I have them but tysm!! 
it's hard to make beachy areas when it's nonstop raining though
Anything you do need then? Through my giveaways I have so many items
but im crossing my fingers that more purple roses breed cuz I NEED A PURPLE ROSE GARDEN 😠
time to download pocketcamp
bruh
@timid kernel Thank you! Will search on twitter cuz youtube is mainly island tours and I want minimaps, thank you!
@woven drift I think I'm okay actually aha I just pick up items as I see them but I don't really need anything, tysm tho!!
bruh
@bronze pier just remember mini maps only have a set amount of markers that will show up. there are plenty of maps I found on youtube but the mini maps didn't really strike me as "amazing" at first, so I'd suggest doing both but you are welcome
@@grim cosmos , I could pick a few for you?
@bronze pier here's my map
😮 😮 😮
You can also just search "map" in this channel too
that's be sweet
i'm redoing my whole river rn it makes me cry
I'd trust @patent sky to add more water to mine Lmao
@patent sky omg that looks amazing! thank you will search here too!
Just inspired me to add yet another river to mine
@woven drift ah ty hahaha I really.... like... water (tho still not as much as Send Help LOL)
tbh i wish we'd get another channel or 2 of more focused map-stuff but it's been suggested and we haven't gotten anything so i just treat this like a chatroom about maps
lulu teach me to make waterfalls
Can someone come to my island and help me plan my island please I’m on the verge of quitting
Make your cliffs pretty then hit them with the water tool if you have natural looking cliffs you'll get good waterfalls
Anyondy have a workout area they wanna send for inspo
Are you kidding me I can’t build here?? .(
@woven drift uhhh add a marsh! Like all the cool kids! The honeycrossing thing
😦
@timid kernel as lulu said you can just search this room for maps and it’ll return loads if that’s what you’re looking for specifically 😊
Ohhh lulu. Great idea. A marsh!
@gusty river I think max river width is 5 squares
ILl try this :) NOT ENOUGH SPACE THOUGH
sorta - there are times people don't include anything and just post their maps
My map is thoroughly filled
@gusty river looks like the length is too long?
can i see a mcdonalds
i'm good anyhow, i already accepted this chat's fate xP but i was explaining it to @bronze pier
this entire channel is just making me feel bad about my island, man all of yours' look so good
@woven drift just pick an area that's the most meh and smash it, this is my strategy lol
I HEARD NEGATIVITY
@torn seal me irl
nice
You guys make me want to make rivers throughout my island 😞
I'd like more water around here but how?
same! my island layout makes sense not covered in rivers though once you actually walk around, but I do love how it makes the map look
i think
@patent sky that's nice, except my island is truly bland 😌
the trick is really to realize you always have a front view
Any tips on how to create fairy like streams/rivers??😅
Drawing on phone sucks lmao
Uhhh make your gardens marshy??? And mix that with the national gardens style
can i see someone book shop
@thick niche maybe heart shaped or circular shaped water bodies
anyone else squeal when they find a snail?
@patent sky do you think marshes have to be particularly big? Or like small water bodies??
Hmmm bottom right corner maybe
@thick niche you can look up some youtube videos of fairycore/cottagecore design maybe! that might help get some ideas
Small I can do yay
You can make them big or small
anyone else squeal when they find a snail?
@grim cosmos i squeal when i see any type of bug ;')
i have to literally find a spot to have a flower garden
Cottagecore? 😂
Cottagecore is so cute 😔
I think mushroom lamps and hyacinth lamps are very fairy like. As well as hybrids and small water bodies surrounding land!
Whoever asked about fairy areas!
Cottagecore is peak aesthetic
What's cottage core?
uggggggghhhhhh so excited to make my forest but i have to fix my mess that I left from my previous tailors location
Idk but it sounds hilarious
@woven drift yes like this but smaller
it's an asthetic, you can search it up but basically it's idealised countryside asthetic
Nice! I love seeing your stuff lulu
@trail totem hang on lemme find you the famous mothra entrance
Gosh let's be friends and always share!!!
But without the yee yee of normal country
mothra hasn't seen my finished project 😭 will have to wait till she's done moving
Cottagecore is a cottage-in-the-woods type aesthetic. Think Snow White. Fairycore is similar but with a more mystical, fantastical element
How do i fix this? I dont like it
I really love terraforming and wish the island was 4 times bigger every time I terraform
Its so limiting
How do i fix this?
@willow elm the brick? Or something else?
@trail totem there's more on her twitter too https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1255989171811872768?s=21
hopefully we will get an island expansion
@willow elm flip it
@nova wraith wat do u mean?
@woven drift i mean i hope they dont till im done decorating bc ooofff im behind schedule
OMG THATS PRETTY
I thought I had no space until I demolished my downtown, I just wasn't using space effectively
Take your time
Make the circle bit be on the outside and the flatter bit be facing the house @willow elm
yeah, I've just been moving around the north of my town and realized how much space I've been wasting
i have a SHIT ton of space infront of my RS to the right now. It's slightly concerning idk what i'll do yet besides put my nooks and a cafe. but there will still be leftover space D:
Ahhh speaking of demolition.. I may want to reduce this area
I just moved all my residents houses but looking at all your layouts makes me want to move them again 🥺
I still have so much land area that I don’t know what to do with 😂😅
That area could use a marsh maybe!!!
Fairycore can be like this
What IS a marsh area? I haven’t seen one 🤔 @woven drift
@woven drift marshes are good fun!
I love fairycore too 😭 @humble echo
basically: Magical country vibes
Lol
Does someone have that famous honey crossing twitter post handy
honestly i have no set theme for my island and i'm more happy with that. i was gonna do fairycore but i like too many other things. so now i have a mix of themes to make my own ishtar theme 😛
@nova wraith very good question... I will get back to you once I've made one Lmao
McGibbon's map gets better every time I see it
With lulu's plenty of helpful tips s far that is
@patent sky I was whining about not having space too until I moved my neighborhood and now I have a lot of space again and idk what to do lol
saaame, mine is just a mix right now
Okie lol @woven drift
@grim cosmos same I don't have a theme besides island in NZ lol
i want to make aquaponics >:((((
This is my layout right now
I'm literally on the verge of a breakdown lol. Can someone dm me and help me design my island and give me ideas. I dont have much to offer (running low) but I can save up. Looking for tropical resort or cottage core themed
is an idiot and doesnt know what a marsh could look like in game
@grim cosmos I authorize you to make aquaponics
YAAAAAAAAYYYYY
it makes me sad when people say stuff like "Oh another jp inspired map" cause.. i think they are all different and cool in their own way, but watch this fairy-country thing be the next "Oh boy here is another one of cottagecore" and i'm like.. just make what you like, there isn't anything wrong with making something that is popular or not - what matters is you are doing what you want, not caring what others think
Ugh when you want to make some sweet entrances but you dont have any statues and people be overpricing then😫
I need more aquaponics but have no idea how to make it look good ingame 😭
step one is don't copy lulu
Especially since my island has plenty of chinese themes. I'm mostly chinese and didnt intend to go too far japanese
Can you trade the fish in tourney items or am I going to be spending 3 nights fishing 😦
Hahaha xD
I don't care if people take huge inspo from my terraforming projects tbh bc they're almost impossible to carbon copy... also pls don't take that as a challenge tho lol
What’s aquaponics?
omg you guys.. someone talk me out of this.. but I am considering redoing most/all of my island
@fervent oar redo one area at a time
You'll be surprised by how much is worth keeping
nothing wrong with revamping, like Baby Seal says, try to focus on a bit at a time
@woven drift halflings rise up
Daily reminder 💜
and I just got 5 stars xD
i'm legit not even checking my star rating until i'm done with my island
Just do little bits, that's kinda what I've been doing
Lulu <33\ you're half chinese too? I'm also malaysian and viet
"done"
I've just done that over the last week by doing my south east area completely first, then doing my north west part after that
Is redoing the parts that are most meh
Which means I'm chinese or Korean or japanese to most hahahah
I'm full chinese
@woven drift white and pinay/japanese
I speak Cantonese
Ugh it's so frustrating not having any nmt when that's all people want
i’m doing the fishing tourney right now and i want to cry forever
Gosh I bet you're gorgeous lulu
@dim copperlmaoo
I don't speak any xD
its not the most monumental thing but,, after 2 hours of time traveling i FINALLY finished organizing my villagers’ houses! :)
Nice!!
Are my trees too close or something? It’s been a few days and they aren’t growing
ALL THIS SPACE FOR MAYBE AQUAPONICS???? ALSO don't look at my trash beach i'm sensitive
I'm still sitting and doing all the flower breeding and getting things moved to the beach one day at a time. Eventually I'll get around to actual pathing and full on planning. But it's great watching everyone's islands be built up.
@patent sky YOU WERE RIGHT BLACK BIOTOPE IS BETTER PIC INCOMING
I grow the trees somewhere else first and move them
i had the same problem. just move the trees out of the area, and move them back after they’re grown
Bruh actually what is aquaponics?
Yeah, they’ll fit in 1 square away from each other but sometimes they won’t grow that way, so you have to move them once they’ve grown @keen quiver
My beach has a lone surfboard and like a little boardwalk on the other side it's v boring and maybe next project
if you put too many 1 square away in a row then they won't grow
Lulu saved my restaurants aesthetic
What does everyone think of me theme park area?
Thank you all!!!
I got a ironwood diy if anyone interested before I go PM me also nearly dont my layout
@devout lynx cozy and cute, i like it
@grim cosmos i think everyone has a trash beach
"Aquaponics refers to any system that combines conventional aquaculture with hydroponics in a symbiotic environment"
XD
nobody commented on my staircase to nowhere i am upset
My cafe. I’m proud of it
@woven drift if u wanna be nit picky maybe try the orange hyacinth lamp to tie in your fence and the potted plant pot
Bahahahah I've changed the hyacinths 4 times by now. Gonna try it !
<3
This is why I have 400 customization kits
Idk tho bc the blue also matches the planters
MY DILEMMA
This took me hours of nonstop planting and getting the sidewalk done ;-; my city is nearly complete and imma cry when it is, I’m gonna decorate parks now, half of my island is city, the other half is a “wild area” forest 😉
I need the hyacinth lamp 😭
@woven drift what day is your island on? I have hydrangeas but they haven't bloomed yet
I've spent so much time in my life on buying customization kits that I will never get back
Okay ty!!
Can Timmy and Tommy just sell me all their customization kits
Why does it have to be 5 at a time
I'm glad nobody is skinning seal for tting
I hate that it’s 5 at a time
Ahahahhaa
yeah i wish we'd get a customized box so we can input whatever amount we wanted
That's why when people repay me I always ask for custom kits
same as the one for turnips, it would be nice
"Here we are in the future, and it's bright!"
HoW DaRE yOU Tt @woven drift 😤
So they spend 30 mins pressing A for me
I mean I always give items for free but when people go "but how can I repay you" I'll say sth hahahaha
I dont charge nmt and give out my nmt and 15+ items per person xD
Custom kits are a relatively cheap present I'd say :P
More cliffs, waterfalls, cedar trees, and flowers
What’s aquaponics?
How can i make the houses better?
water and fish and plants
^
Ah ok 👌
🙂
beau’s house so far, need to plant flowers where that bit of soil is and get soil bags (pillows)
Would planks work as a path way for beaches?
and do the stepping stone path
@patent sky wanna see my relatively new beach??
autumn starting to grow on me
beau’s house so far, need to plant flowers where that bit of soil is and get soil bags (pillows)
@steep socket I wish Fauna lived in that house. then she could move into the lodge village with Molly and Erik
winter/fall>summer>spring for me probably (although cherry blossoms are cute)
Man your beau is living much better than mine
Still need half log bench
could i make aquaponics work near my able sisters or would that be weird?
fauna’s house should be log cabin @versed wadi
Not weird at all!
idk what else i'd do with the space
What are aquaponics?
hey does someone want a stack of turnips for tree moving? I have 3 stacks leftover that I don't think I'll need and will prob rot
WATER FISH AND PLANTS 😠
My island is trash compared to all of yours ;D
