island-designs

[gray ore]

@clever plover Maybe you could try adding a rug underneath the couch?

[clever plover]

@gray ore oooooo I like that idea..

[gray ore]

Or in the middle-ish?

[manic sigil]

itll have to be a custom design rug because you cant place rugs in the outdoors

[gray ore]

Yeah.

[slim prairie]

Help. What should I do next？

[uncut ice]

Hiii, i'm trying to change my Island theme from foresty to Creepy, can anyone help me? Give me tips or visit my island and see idk ahh help

[manic sigil]

@slim prairie lay down the path, then add trees and flowers (and fencing and things like that), then furniture if you plan on using it

[deft glen]

@clever plover everything looks really good together! Maybe try adding trees/bamboo to the hedge line to give the area some height and to break up the lines of hedges

[gray ore]

@manic sigil I agree

[strong gust]

Does anyone no if you can move house’s and other things after being placed

[gray ore]

You can move them by talking to Tom Nook about infrastructure.

[upper ferry]

Any ideas how to improve Fauna’s property? Making it bigger, or something else? What items should I add

[dawn marsh]

Im doing a big park on a 17x11 area....can someone send me some inspo pictures pls?

[sacred knot]

@strong gust you can move later don’t worry

[manic sigil]

@dawn marsh like a public park or something like the picture?

[upper ferry]

@plain forge I would make 5 in a neighborhood and the other favorite 5 give them customized areas 😍

[dawn marsh]

@manic sigil yes, but ill prefer with like more floors, with the terraform tool

[gray ore]

@upper ferry I would try to have a different fencing around her property. You could also add some trees/flowers in the back.

[strong gust]

@sacred knot thank god

[upper ferry]

@gray ore what fence?

[woven drift]

@woven drift (sorry that asnwer is late) 😂😂that isnt a problem. You can move the houses in the service center so many times you want, but it costs 50k bells everytime.

[dawn marsh]

@manic sigil u know what? Im gonna inspire myself with that too c:

[woven drift]

@woven drift thank uu for the help^^

[manic sigil]

@dawn marsh not mine! but good luck all the same

[clever summit]

hi i’m in desperate need of inspiration. i got terraforming like 2 months ago and i still have no ideas on what to do. i know i want a space themed island but i just have no ideas please help!

[gray ore]

@upper ferry I'm not 100% sure on what would look the absolute best, but maybe the brick fence? You could even try some hedges.

[slim prairie]

What next, please help.

[upper ferry]

@slim prairie definitely make a terraform waterfall

[slim prairie]

What should do with the Resident Services.

[gray ore]

If you're not sure on what you want your island like, you can go and check out other people's and also use Happy Island Designer to plan.

[slim prairie]

Please help.

[gray ore]

I would try adding flowers near the waterfalls and trees on top of the cliffs.

[trim trellis]

What kind of look are you going for @slim prairie

[wooden ice]

Just saying please help isn’t very helpful

[glass lion]

since i still have a bit of open land, any suggestions on what i should add?

[slim prairie]

What should I do with the residents services？

[gray ore]

@glass lion Maybe try a cafe, flower field, or orchard if you haven't.

[trim trellis]

Picnic area possibly? @glass lion

[glass lion]

I already have a cafe, but i can try a flower field

and a picnic area would be good around my villager’s house, thanks

[mint badge]

Suggestions

[hybrid cedar]

Changed up my luau area 🌺

[coral shale]

@hybrid cedar very very cutee! How do you get the hula girls..??

[gray ore]

@mint badge You could see how it looks if you move the rattan armchairs and table so it's in line with the other table.

[tall otter]

Any decoration ideas for this and ideas to follow on from this out into my main island so it’s just flat straight after?

[slim prairie]

What should I do with the residents services？

[manic sigil]

@slim prairie you could try doing this, or something like it

[mint badge]

Like this

[gray ore]

Yeah. That looks nice. Do you think it does?

[mint badge]

Yea alot more room

[gray ore]

Cool. Yw.

[mint badge]

Thanks 🙏🏽

[vernal oxide]

@slim prairie that is what I did

[twin thorn]

How big a square should I leave to give my villagers a good sized garden?

[storm bluff]

@twin thorn check out this post: https://discordapp.com/channels/494376688256548865/681277827244621855/713385490375508039

[mint badge]

Envy is so supportive 😭

[clever plover]

Here’s my final product for Boomer’s yard! Thanks for the feedback everyone! 🥰

[compact dock]

Anyone have a fishing area with the fish tourney prizes used i can get some inspo from?

[twin thorn]

Cheers!

[woven drift]

For what its worth: feel free to send me a dm with some empty space that you guys want suggestions on. It personally helps me flex my creative muscles, and I love giving suggestions. Apologies in advance for any delays o/

[vernal oxide]

@compact dock im still working on the fishing tourney. One thing I did do was a little fishing area by Zucker’s house

[twin thorn]

@clever plover what dimensions is this?

[atomic quest]

I was working on this today

[signal flicker]

should i add anything here

[drowsy python]

@signal flicker maybe some shrubs or lamps. But it already looks great!

[gray ore]

@atomic quest That looks amazing with the kind of pastel sort of look to it.

[atomic quest]

@atomic quest That looks amazing with the kind of pastel sort of look to it.
@gray ore the filter makes it looks better than it actually is haha

[versed wadi]

@atomic quest which filter?

[gray ore]

@atomic quest Yeah, but the only thing you're showing off is the picture so it doesn't matter.

Lol

[atomic quest]

@versed wadi inspo from filter used by ppl on twitter on lightroom

[true ivy]

Floras garden!

[proven kayak]

Any ideas? 🙏🏻

[clever plover]

@twin thorn it’s 10 x 6 with no fencing, 12 x 8 including the hedge fence border

[crisp fractal]

Can y'all vote on which flooring I should use in my gym?

[gleaming kelp]

top right

[twin thorn]

Thank you!

[mint badge]

My bakery 🧁

[vernal oxide]

@mint badge I think seating would be super cute!!! This is what mine used to look like

[woven drift]

@signal flicker I'd reccomend closing off that path design at the entrance there if you haven't tried it already

[shut kindle]

Are we allowed to share our IG? I would like to follow anyone who is posting active daily!

[woven drift]

@proven kayak what theme are you going for?

[vague loom]

It worked!

[mint badge]

@vernal oxide im making the tables and chairs now the inside of the house ima decorate it to look like a kitchen bakery

[woven drift]

Or what are you NOT going for @proven kayak

[proven kayak]

@woven drift modern and practical, something that would be used irl? or something with a lot of trees? I’m pretty open

[woven drift]

Got it! I'll dm you some possible inspo pics

[proven kayak]

Thank you

[sterile cypress]

I have a huge open spot of land that takes up like 20% of my map any ideas of what I can put?

[vernal oxide]

@proven kayak @sterile cypress there’s a list of ideas in the pinned section!!

[sterile cypress]

ty

[proven kayak]

@vernal oxide thank you!

[strong crystal]

Does anyone know what these fences are called?

[zenith sigil]

Anyone want to come to my island to dig flowers up? I’ll pay

[vernal oxide]

@zenith sigil use #flower-plants-trade

[zenith sigil]

I can’t find it!

[vernal oxide]

@zenith sigil go to #721542917264638002 and read the rules and react to the reaction

[zenith sigil]

Ok😀

[woven drift]

Does anyone have nice Egypt areas for inspo please and ty! ^^

[viscid gate]

any ideas?

[vernal oxide]

@viscid gate check the pinned section for a list of ideas!

[scenic blaze]

@strong crystal this looks like pocket camp. Do you have the full image?

[brazen pumice]

Does anyone have the layout that has resident services very close to the airport? How did you style your entrance. It’s so hard for me to fit anything in that small space

[viscid gate]

@viscid gate check the pinned section for a list of ideas!
@vernal oxide Didn’t think of that, very handy. Thanks!

[strong crystal]

@scenic blaze oh ahhaa

[scenic blaze]

Yeah this is pocket camp, most of these items aren’t in NH

[dawn shoal]

does anyone have any cozy winter island inspo? 😮

[vernal oxide]

@woven drift not mine but maybe this will help. You can also use the top right search bar and find pictures “in:island-layouts has: image: egypt “

[silent zodiac]

What do you guys think of my mueseum area! What should I add or take away?

[woven drift]

@vernal oxide tysm! And I forgot about the search bar haha ty!

[cunning vortex]

Any thoughts on my secret beach?

[silent zodiac]

@cunning vortex that is beautiful!!! That’s is so pretty! Maybe you should add a pirate treasure chest to add a bit of a more pirate theme kind of

[proper flume]

Could i see your flower fields? I donno how to put them pretty

[cunning vortex]

Will do if I can find one! Thanks

[vernal oxide]

@silent zodiac I think adding fossils would give it a nice touch!

[silent zodiac]

@vernal oxide Envy I am adding a little musuem cafe area right next to it and I’m going to put fossils in there!

[magic forge]

how do you build water falls?

[rigid ibex]

@magic forge use the waterscaping shovel on a cliff

[magic forge]

@rigid ibex thank u!

[remote idol]

i'm looking for some inspiration to decorate my villagers' houses based on their personality type and stuff that really fits them, does anyone have any ideas for Judy, Marshal, Beau, Ketchup, Marina, Julian or Merengue?

[eternal laurel]

Very nice work @atomic quest

[vernal oxide]

@remote idol for Judy I’m doing a star gazing area. She’s a part of my bear grouping. For Marshal I gave him a cafe. Merengue I’m giving a bakery

[woven drift]

@remote idol check their house interior for a good feel of their style

[thorny nebula]

Little hang out area /library thing 😂

[remote idol]

@woven drift @vernal oxide thank you both!!

[vernal oxide]

@remote idol I haven’t done much yet. Marshal is the first picture. The second has my bear area and Judy will have a star gazing area in front of her house! Hope this helps!

[remote idol]

@vernal oxide i love it! thank you this really gives me inspiration :))

[vague loom]

Anyone got an idea where/how to put the residential area? I have room in the middle and top right. I also don't have a place for the campsite yet

[remote idol]

@vague loom I would make a beach-themed campsite, and maybe spread the residential area in like 3 parts: 4 houses in the middle-left, 4 in the middle-right and 2 in the top-right?

[vague loom]

I was thinking about something with bamboo for the campsite idk what tho

[remote idol]

Maybe on the hill behind Nook's Cranny?

[vague loom]

I already have this on the hill

[vernal oxide]

@woven drift there’s a list in the pinned section!

[swift palm]

Finally making progress on map

[ornate spindle]

@silent zodiac I think a tree might work instead of the moon if you wanted to use it for sumn else but trees, bushes and flowers/weeds for everything else

[keen lion]

Working on my entrance- Do you guys think it’s okay so far?

It won’t let me fix the little dirt patch and it’s bothering me 💀

[elfin prism]

Does any one have a market street on their island? Because I need a little inspo 😊

[tranquil carbon]

What should I put here? Any ideas?

[raven oxide]

@elfin prism I need one too if someone dms u let me know pls

[wraith basin]

I need help!
Left or right?
I don’t like the repetitiveness on the right but maybe colors fit better (?)

[vernal oxide]

@tranquil carbon there’s a list of ideas in the pinned section!

[raven oxide]

@wraith basin I like right better

[wraith basin]

Thanks! It just bothers me a bit that the rocks are so repetitive 😣

[vernal oxide]

@raven oxide @elfin prism not my pictures but maybe these will help: also you can type in the top right search bar “in:island-layouts has: image: market street” to see more images!

[echo sparrow]

my neighborhood is pretty small D:
but i was able to squeeze in a little recreational area/park for my villagers!

thoughts ? (,:

[limber brook]

Mermaid zone

[elfin prism]

@vernal oxide tyvm 🥰

[pseudo wigeon]

I had all my Villagers on the right but looking to spread them out was wondering if I should keep the river going from the top of my map all the way down?

[opaque geyser]

What types of items do you recommend using in a stargazing area?

[vernal oxide]

@opaque geyser Celeste items. Such as nova lights, crescent moon chair, etc

[gray dust]

What should I add around my fountain to spruce it up a bit? (Ignore the clutter on the ground 😅)

[short harness]

What should I add around my fountain to spruce it up a bit? (Ignore the clutter on the ground 😅)
@gray dust
Maybe some more hedges/bushes?

[vernal oxide]

@gray dust seating for sure

[austere heath]

@opaque geyser It depends on your style. Some people use couches, blankets, and comfy items. Some use celeste items and telescopes... it's completely up to the vibe you're going for. This is what I did.

[opaque geyser]

Thank youuuuu

[pseudo wigeon]

@opaque geyser whenever I get the items I would use the Celeste nova stars and moon chairs myself 🙂

[limber ginkgo]

A quick run through of my museum! Not done decorating yet, though.

Also the area immediately in front of the museum isn't done yet 😳

[gritty smelt]

@limber ginkgo it looks so good!!

[limber ginkgo]

@gritty smelt tyvm! I spent several hours the other evening working on it. 😭

[runic granite]

New mermaid area that I made

[royal oak]

Omg I love that Charlie! Would you ever put picked flowers (so in vases) along the paths? honestly it’s amazing regardless I’m just wondering if u want more color?

[limber ginkgo]

@royal oak that's a great idea, I haven't thought of flowers just yet so I'll keep the idea in mind!

[woeful ravine]

sorry for the horrible quality, what should i make this area? it's huge and idk what to do

[opaque geyser]

What should I put on the cliff right behind my resident center? Or should I just get rid of it all together lmao

[woeful ravine]

flowers and shrubs!

[opaque geyser]

Look at the pins @woeful ravine

[gritty smelt]

does anyone have like a beach market area? or any market area? i need some inspo!

[grand salmon]

I followed someone's advise a little im sorry i dont remember who but i finished this

[keen lion]

Worked a little more on my entrance

(Also yes I see the lil dirt patch and I can’t fix it bc of the bridge)

[worthy parrot]

What should I put on the cliff right behind my resident center? Or should I just get rid of it all together lmao
@opaque geyser i've seen some people making waterfalls and stuff on cliffs behind their resident services!! maybe that would fit

[sonic bluff]

Library finally completed, or do you thing there’s any other items I could add?

[woven drift]

Not the most spectacular thing, but at least it's better than my other attempts (I think this is entrance idea #4 now). First three tried to go for waterfalls...quickly realized that takes an unholy amount of space

[deep stirrup]

Anyone selling these signs?

[gray ore]

@woven drift What do you mean not spectacular? That's amazing!

[vernal oxide]

@deep stirrup use #furniture-trade

[deep stirrup]

@vernal oxide oh yh sorry lol

[gray ore]

Am I doing something wrong or will the houses actually take up this much space?

[scenic bridge]

how should i decorate the front of my villages houses?

[static pasture]

@scenic bridge some flowers matching the color scheme of ther houses?

[vernal oxide]

@gray ore if you want them to have bigger yards then yea it will take up more room

[scenic bridge]

@scenic bridge some flowers matching the color scheme of ther houses?
@static pasture good idea!! ill take note

[woven drift]

@gray ore I am harshly self-critical of my designs...period. I spent probably around 2-6 weeks just building and tearing down entrances after reaching 3*.

[vernal oxide]

@scenic bridge you can also use furniture that goes with their personality!

[gray ore]

@gray ore if you want them to have bigger yards then yea it will take up more room
@vernal oxide Okay.

[scenic bridge]

thank u!

[final linden]

Who wants to come design my entrance

[gray ore]

@woven drift At least it's better than anything that I could do.

[woven drift]

@scenic bridge there is also stuff in the pinned stuff for this chat that should help you design yards, if you need that stuff anyways.

@gray ore Believe me, I wouldn't have gotten anywhere with that if it wasn't for twitter and reddit posts. I lurked around there a TON (like an unhealthy amount of time) just taking the frameworks of certain ideas...and then also discord for minor tweaks, especially the park benches. The creative work in that was almost none, with the exception of the flowers.

[swift palm]

Spotted flora fishing in her marsh

[woven drift]

@gray ore The island designer websites (whether it be 2D or 3D) will always misrepresent space wrong. You are better off just making a general plan, and modifying it as you go along...it happened when I tried to design my shopping district before just abandoning the idea entirely....in fact most times it has failed.

[lost sky]

My first attempt to create a yard, any tips?🥺

[stable helm]

Can someone help me dising my island I'm not such a good disigner

[vernal oxide]

@stable helm if you use the top right search bar you can search “ in:island-layouts has: image: map” and see what others’ maps look like! There’s also ideas in the pinned section as well as different designing websites you can use!

@lost sky you can also use the watermelon beach ball to look like watermelons in the garden!! But it looks good!

[atomic quest]

if only being a 'best friend' also allows us to terraform for others ><

[ember python]

Entrance and waiting area

[vernal oxide]

@atomic quest yeah but then people would charge a ridiculous amount for it, and islands would look the same since no one else would be trying to make their own island themselves

[short dome]

have this plot of empty land near the middle of my island would love to hear any suggestions for what I could do with it

[vernal oxide]

@short dome there’s a big list of ideas in the pinned section!!

[lost sky]

@vernal oxide Thanks for the tip! I will go hunting for melons😊

[woven drift]

Kyri, I wish. and yeah @vernal oxide that would be exactly what happens...

[short dome]

@short dome there’s a big list of ideas in the pinned section!!
@vernal oxide thanks!!

[atomic quest]

yah, but at least some ppl won't be charging $400 to design an island lul 🙄

[spiral mango]

I originally wanted to decorate the shop with more furniture items around it but I’m pretty happy with this simplistic look! There’s also the raccoon figurine to the right 😂

[atomic quest]

timmy and tommy's bikes!

[spiral mango]

@atomic quest Haha they’re so cute and funny to have around the shop 😆

[silver sky]

any villager neighbor-hood ideas?

[scenic bridge]

lots of ideas in the pins

[sullen sable]

what are some fossils that are big but look good outside and fit in screen

[icy flint]

icy usually the fossils that need the head, torso, and tail are big and fill up space

[echo sparrow]

my neighborhood is quite small, but i had this tiny empty space so i converted it into a small recreational area / park!

thoughts?

[topaz mountain]

I know there are pins about rivers...but I'm a visual person! Does anyone have suggestions on how to make their rivers natural looking? or their placements??

[vernal oxide]

@sullen sable this is part of my museum and you can see the Dino’s I displayed! I also have two more up the stairs!

[icy flint]

@topaz mountain try to not make it one size try to give some places more narrow and some places more wider and make sure to add curves

[sullen sable]

whats the dinosaur called with the antler things?

[icy flint]

my map layout with the river

[woven drift]

@icy flint Ack your island looks so cool

[vernal oxide]

@sullen sable it’s called the megalo

[upper bridge]

redd’s beach & marshal hiding

[sullen sable]

[worldly night]

:/

[topaz mountain]

@icy flint thank you!!

[worldly night]

Campsite area

[woven drift]

@worldly night I envy people who can use filters well. Design is one thing, but being able to use a filter in a creative way is something I cannot do XD

[worldly night]

I need to take more screenshots of areas lol

Oh yeah, filters are I thing I LOVE, really adds a sence of feel to the island

[icy flint]

lmao im like redoing my whole island so if i take a screenshot in 3 days ima need a new one since i'll prob add more or change it

[vernal oxide]

@woven drift I’ve been playing around with the filters on the animal crossing camera! It’s sooo much fun. My favorite filter is “film”

[torn monolith]

I finished my entry rainbow path between the museum and the plaza!

[worldly night]

Love the sakura tree

[torn monolith]

I’ve since plopped a pufferfish at the end because they’re just cute oh Thanksies! I was going for a rock garden vibe.

[vocal dirge]

I have this circle island roughly 8/10 by 8/10 spaces, any ideas?

[worldly night]

How about a picnic?

[torn monolith]

MOSH PIT!

[cobalt willow]

I haven’t played in over a month and came back to LOTS of flowers, I kinda of like it in certain parts! In others.... not so much

[vocal dirge]

I had that in mind I just didnt really know where to put it @worldly night

[torn monolith]

Oh yeah my town is kinda drunk on flowers. I’m slowly removing them.

[vocal dirge]

@torn monolith oooooo good idea idk though I'll see :)

[worldly night]

@vocal dirge
Heres my picnic area for some inspo if you do build one

[split spire]

Can i see everyones layout for there neighborhoods? Im doing this layout but giving them a area on the side of the house

[vocal dirge]

@worldly night I'm loving how you managed to place the bamboo

[rugged rain]

Can people with West and South river exist post their map? 👏🏻👏🏻

[last owl]

Free DIYs and entrance to the beach

[chilly sparrow]

I really underestimated just how much difference stone borders make

[vocal dirge]

@split spire most if my villagers are on their own mini islands on a massive lake

[worldly night]

@vocal dirge
Yeah that was a nightmare but so worth it lol

Le gasp, my villagers are also on little islands

[vocal dirge]

Ooooo I currently have 6 villagers on islands and then in planning to make a neighbourhood for 3 villagers and have julian love near me

[worldly night]

I'm making my islands about 6x6 unless they're a unique shape

[vocal dirge]

Mine are 4/8 by 4/8 depending wether you count the very outside or the inside square (my islands are circles)

[woeful ravine]

hey so idk where to ask this, does anyone where i can get a book shelf/library? is it a diy or do i buy it?

[worldly night]

#game-help-questions❓

[woeful ravine]

oh-

[worldly night]

#materials-and-tools

[dusty summit]

@woeful ravine it’s a diy

[woeful ravine]

okay thanks!

[worldly night]

#diy-trade

[vernal oxide]

@woeful ravine it’s a diy. You can either go to the #player-services to give someone materials to craft them, or you can try nookazon and maybe someone will sell the bookshelves!

[woeful ravine]

tysm!

[torn monolith]

Here’s mine

Marina, Rodeo, and Wendy all live in the “suburbs” because I didn’t feel like moving the stores.

I’ve also gathered some chairs so I could make a seating area to “watch” the concert area

Top tier has a “secret” frog tribunal

[quick iris]

A sneaky way to boost your town rating just give Tom some boxes as if he got a new shipment of stuff

[crimson dagger]

Any good ideas for like a flower garden or anything for my flowers

[woven drift]

Can i see everyones layout for there neighborhoods? Im doing this layout but giving them a area on the side of the house
@split spire I used a ton of flowers. Also if you're doing that layout, try bushes around the houses. Greenery!!

Any suggestions/ comments for my lil picnic/ hangout area?

[sinful kindle]

Was struggling but now I am making progress!

[grave lagoon]

My red flower garden, house and secret pathway to museum

[spiral mango]

Made this behind resident services!

[woven drift]

@quick iris Ah, the old strategy of getting to 3*...and beyond. Just throw down a lot of stuff on a forgotten corner of the island...then come back to it later when you actually need to decorate.

[dense ledge]

Man so much inspo here thx for being awesome everyone!

[torn monolith]

I do this with all my golden roses

[polar plover]

Inspo for island entrance? Looking for a waiting area or something of that nature

[torn monolith]

Top tier cliff. Not sure if that helps but ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[woven drift]

@polar plover check the pinned info for this chat, it should tell you how to look up entrance photos.

[quick iris]

@woven drift na i am a level 3 this is me hidding stuff behind my house my brothers house and the resident service aka the 3 spots that are just an empty space that would be full of weeds unless i decorated them and in doing so i jumped from 3 to 4 all the while keeping my natural island look

[woven drift]

Nice. I lazily did mine, but then got perfectionistic...and then tanked my island back into 1-2 star rating while I am decorating.

[vernal oxide]

@polar plover in the top right search bar type in “in:island-layouts has: image: entrance” or “in:island-layouts has: image: waiting area” to see what others have posted!!

[young harness]

What should I do with the huge open space ( upper right corner )

[vernal oxide]

@young harness theres a huge list of ideas in the pinned section!!

[icy flint]

should i keep the maze pathless or should i add the custom path towards the maze?

already using this path

going for an abandoned island theme so im trying to keep this path going as well as getting more trees

[fleet warren]

Thought I’d show off my beautiful island it’s very inspiring and clearly better than anyone else’s the red represents the pain of making a rock garden 🤪🤩✨ please help me I’m going insane

[icy flint]

tbh thinking about it i might keep it normal and not touch it and just add the paths towards the entrance of the museum

[vernal oxide]

@fleet warren there’s a really good guide in the pinned section! And if you have any trouble you could also probably get help in #garden-science-discussion or I think it’s #garden-science-info

[fleet warren]

Oo thanks!!

[icy flint]

ill see when i have to work on it more but rn it looks fine just needa start on parts i haven;t started before

[vernal oxide]

@fleet warren but good luck though!! I know it’s such a pain ahaha

[restive kraken]

Someone who has their island fully covered, especially with patterns, take a picture of their map? I am doing a grass design project and want to see what textures appear on the map.

[tulip marsh]

The Device recreated in AC

[versed wadi]

@restive kraken custom paths don’t show on the map

[river cedar]

YARRR MATEY! WHAT AN EXCELLENT ENTRANCE THAT IS TO GET SCAMMED BY A FOX!

[icy flint]

@restive kraken every pattern that can be bought from the town hall with nook miles will show up expect for grass, and custom patterns won't show up as well, unless you have a custom pattern that isn't transparent then you can put a bought one underneath then it'll show up

[restive kraken]

Oooo okay

[green plover]

Anyone got any Able Sisters beach designs ? Need some inspo 😦

[tall otter]

Any ideas to decorate and improve this?

[river cedar]

try adding stalls!

[last bay]

I made this little farm area! What do you guys think?

[shadow temple]

Sorry to jump in outta nowhere lol but I have been working hard on my island since deciding I hated how it was originally going so I wanted to share a before/after of my map (still a w.i.p) Haven't decided where i want Able's to go & thinking about relocating my main character's house slightly as well as adding more playable characters to the mix haha
I just wanna say lurking in this channel has been life saving! Many incredible ideas and encouragement from everyone, makes the whole process a lot easier for me to handle

[versed wadi]

I call this “inconsistent censorship”

[manic sigil]

@versed wadi are those fridges and mini-fridges?

[versed wadi]

Lockers and safes

[manic sigil]

and can you just place things on the locker? it looks too high for you to just put it on there from the ground

Everyone else:

Forget it the picture isn’t loading

[wraith pike]

this is my house area. i'm pretty happy with it, one of the only areas of my island that i'm probably not going to redevelop and will keep.

[dawn cave]

Aw I like the shoes as decor 💕

[wraith pike]

thank you 🙂

[wet ore]

@river cedar best idea for Redd!!!

[river cedar]

[minor dew]

https://mai-casa-es-tu-casa.webnode.com/ just trying to help a friend here offers design to your islands/homes 🙂

[keen breach]

I need tips on how to fix this nasTY

[desert shore]

@keen breach maybe replace some of the hedges with trees?

[neat gyro]

My friend is insane he spent almost 1000 hrs on this

[keen breach]

Oooh!

[late marsh]

What the..

[woven drift]

Wow

[left rose]

waterscaping is hell how tf

[late marsh]

Can we visit ? xD

[left rose]

@neat gyro id pay to tour that town

[woven drift]

Same

[wet ore]

@tall otter can't wait to see the final product!

[neat gyro]

I'll ask him but its really hard to traverse

Like islands are small and its alot of hops and usually he only has 2 or 3 people there 😅

[late marsh]

Oh well I understand 🙂

[wet ore]

This is the definition of terraforming. He was blessed by the gods of Animal Crossing!

[neat gyro]

Thing is he never really can bug catch

[late marsh]

Lol, at least he can fish

[static idol]

Does he have any social media? His island is so cool!

[echo sparrow]

do you guys think this little airport waiting area disrupts the cafe theme too much?

[icy flint]

idk how its hard for people to terraform tbh for me quite easy just takes some time so i just run away and run around on my island

[neat gyro]

He doesn't have many trees or stumps so he needs nmts constantly lmao, he has a discord

[restive lily]

Has anyone made a zoo on their island? Looking for some inspiration pictures 🙂

[neat gyro]

I saw a person on insta that made his island and villagers into a giant zoo

[icy flint]

hopefully this helps even tho its a meme

[fleet talon]

Just finished redoing the outside of my museum!

[patent elbow]

Anyone have crafting center inspo???

[wraith spire]

does anyone have any ideas on how i could improve this cannon tower for my pirate island?

[woven drift]

comments please :3

[final tangle]

any ideas for what to do w this area near my campsite? im doing a cottagecore themed island:)

[icy flint]

what would be a good color for a wooden bookshelf for coco? brown or dark brown?

[patent elbow]

Give the cannon tower a staircase. for cottage core, cover it with plants and cozy campsite furniture

[balmy violet]

@shut kindle is that a dark brown den desk?

[final tangle]

ok thank you!:)

[patent elbow]

Does anyone have a crafting station inspiration?? Im at a loss

[shut kindle]

@balmy violet yes

[versed wadi]

Whitney just moved to my island so I updated my coastal town screenshots:

[icy flint]

my theme is an abandoned island that is getting rediscovered so there's a lot of trees, bushes and i was planning on having trees around the library to seem like its in the middle of the woods so idk what color

[zenith roost]

Started working on Tangy's orchard, is this too crowded? (also yes the cherry glitching through the stall is annoying me)

[zinc monolith]

@icy flint I have a kinda sorta similar theme, do you have any pics of what you have now?

[icy flint]

yeah ill dm ya since i hate spamming pics and having to wait 30 secs lmao

[zinc monolith]

I feel like my carnival is missing something, but what?

Should I add a second teacup ride?

[deft mulch]

Could someone come to my island and help do a lay out of my island

[zealous finch]

is feel like this area is missing something but i don’t want to ruin the simple vibe of it. any ideas?

[final tangle]

maybe a couple of orange + white flowers and maybe some decoy ducks if u have the diy:)

[icy flint]

maybe some bushes or flowers around it, with some paper laterns to keep it simple but pop at the same time

[zinc monolith]

Add cushions on top of the blanket with the same pattern so you can “sit on” the blanket.

[late marsh]

Still a work in progress, missing statues and art to add up, but what you think ? :x

[wet ore]

@zinc monolith red and white floor lights

[late marsh]

And this one was missing

[wraith spire]

does anyone have any ideas on how i could improve this cannon tower for my pirate island?

[sacred knot]

@wraith spire maybe you could put some stuff in front like in the beach

[split spire]

Where is your museums i need inspo on mine

[late marsh]

@primal raft where on the map?

[primal raft]

Hi?

[late marsh]

oops wrong rose, sorry :x

[primal raft]

hehe it happens a lot. Just long press and hit “quote”

[pastel plank]

Moved my sushi restaurant, ironic how Octavian is my first customer.

[late marsh]

Ow thanks 🙂

[grave lagoon]

I love rainy days :o

[sonic bluff]

I’m looking for some inspo for a “Japanese or Zen” area to put kabuki’s house that doesn’t take a lot of space, anyone have some pics?

[lavish monolith]

@sonic bluff

[wraith glen]

hello! i’m unsure of what to use this space for. my island is sort of urban/suburban themed, not too specific. any ideas how i could decorate?:)

[woeful wharf]

Hi, does anyone have or know a natural/cottagecore/fairycore island that uses the default paths? I wanted to make one like that, bc I heard the default paths make villagers walk around more, but I don't like how they look very much, so idk what to do 😔

[woven drift]

Rate this sitting area please

I'm like so in the middle on it

[atomic quest]

@restive lily @split oak has a zoo island: https://youtu.be/PnwU9J9Aq-g

[ember mesa]

Does anyone have any ideas of exterior decor for the villagers?

[grave lagoon]

@woeful wharf you can use default path too, but i didn't use it as u see. At least i see a villager a day on this path so idk if that's true.

[stoic pawn]

thats so pretty!!

[gray ore]

The filter was a good decision.

[ember mesa]

Doing my island again and kinda out of ideas lol
I have fauna, bob, Zucker, audie, Octavian, tia, bones, sherb, Judy, and stitches
Give me ideas on exterior decor pleaseee 🙂

[keen breach]

Anyone here willing to come to my island and give me some tips on fixing and decorating- I can pay NMT!

[vernal oxide]

The quality may be horrible, I couldn’t figure out to properly get the video onto my phone BUT here’s a whole video of my entrance to my island as well as my museum!!

[lunar leaf]

Epic

[buoyant forum]

i love it better then my island even the parts i finished redoing

[vernal oxide]

@buoyant forum I’ve honestly redone my island a million and one times. And I still reconsider redoing a bunch of it. My biggest advice is make it how you want it and how you like it!

[upper ferry]

What should I put here?? It is directly from the left of my Shop and Tailor???

[buoyant forum]

ive been procrastinating it for days because no ideas rip

[vernal oxide]

@upper ferry there’s a huge list of ideas in the pinned section!

[upper ferry]

@vernal oxide where is that???

[raven oxide]

I’m trying to build a tiki bar does anyone have materials for it? I’m down to pay bells for it

[stoic pawn]

maybe try #furniture-trade ?

[prisma ravine]

how do you hide the fact that your town hall is off centered?

[vernal oxide]

@upper ferry if you hit the person icon in the top right there’s lists in there

[plain flicker]

how do you hide the fact that your town hall is off centered?
@prisma ravine what im trying to do is add some terraforming and rivers at the front of my island since my town hall is off centered and very close to my airport. i think this will distract from the off centered-ness and closeness!!

[prisma ravine]

okay thanks!

[vernal oxide]

@upper ferry

[echo sparrow]

have this huge area! need some ideas for what to put here (:

for reference, i already have:
-cafe
-park
-playground
-market

[stoic pawn]

i used cliffs to hide my RS from view when you're at the airport @prisma ravine

[prisma ravine]

maybe ill put a cliff waterfall with a river

[vernal oxide]

@echo sparrow theres a list of ideas I just posted!

[prisma ravine]

i just dont want the cliff to be too close so that when my villagers sing the waterfall isnt super loud

[drowsy python]

@echo sparrow maybe you could do a zen garden with bamboo and sand

[echo sparrow]

since it’s pretty close to my beach i’m actually thinking of a pool/spa area right before going into the public beach. kind of like what you would see at resorts and stuff in florida :p

im definitely doing a zen garden though, so thanks for the idea !!

[woeful wharf]

@grave lagoon I hope they walk around a lot in the custom paths, your island looks so beautiful ❤️ thank you for sharing!

[vernal oxide]

@echo sparrow i did a pool area with a smoothie bar next to it by my beach

[tall echo]

the top left area of my island is extremely big, and i don’t think it’ll look good if i do j a big orchard like i planned. what should i do along with an orchard in that area?

[late marsh]

My welcome booth for Isle Delfino!
@toxic oar Omg so nostalgic 😢

[stuck trail]

@tall echo gardens (flower or vegetable) and / or beekeeping areas look nice with orchards imo (:

[tall echo]

thank you!!

[woven drift]

If anyone is looking for inspo pics feel free to request some from me. I practically have a library of inspo pics and it's a little insane. Just be sure to specify your theme or give me a pic of your own island for reference

[late marsh]

@late marsh Pulled the path texture from the game too!
@toxic oar it's really well done 😄

[zenith roost]

Here's an updated pic of what i sent earlier, this will be apart of Tangy's exterior. I plan on making it look like an orchard/farmer's market

[stiff panther]

FOR ANYONE DESIGNING THEIR ISLAND. I found a website where you can pick your layout and design how you want it to look. Its called Happy Island Designer! It’s just a tip!! 👍

[prisma ravine]

i looked at too many island inspiration pictures and now im confused like i kinda want my shops on elevations at the entrance but i also like waterfalls >.<

[woven drift]

Do both!

[vernal oxide]

@prisma ravine I elevated mine kinda by the entrance and I have a looong walkway for my entrance with waterfalls

[tidal hemlock]

i need help i dont know where to place my villagers i've spent already like 1mil

[prisma ravine]

@vernal oxide thats gorgeous!

[past elk]

What are some good yard ideas for right outside your house? I have a pretty small plot of land and idk what to put there

[zenith roost]

@tidal hemlock I spread my villagers out! I think neighborhoods and stuff are a bit too crowded and 'boxy' looking 😅

[woven drift]

Got a pic @past elk

[past elk]

This is how small my yard is

[tall echo]

speaking of crowded and boxy looking like drew said LOL...any ideas on how to make my small spaces in front of my villagers’ houses look less boring? i was stupid and did a grid design, haha

[left rose]

what do you guys think zell would like around his house, i want to give each of my villagers their own areas but i dont know where to put him 😔

[tall echo]

they’re all the same size, btw. ^^

[mental zodiac]

@vernal oxide what are the posts with the flags called?

[woven drift]

@past elk some knick knacks could really make that plot! Garden tables, clothe hangers, swinging bench or a little bird bath

[stuck trail]

@tall echo maybe if you do a smaller path going up to the house you'll have more room for a yard? fencing usually looks nice with that type of layout as well

[woven drift]

I think I've got some good reference pics I could dm @past elk

[vernal oxide]

@mental zodiac they’re from pocket camp it’s called market place flag I believe

[mental zodiac]

ok!

[tall echo]

ah, good idea! thank you!!

[tidal hemlock]

this is what i did idk if it looks good somebody give me advice 😩

[past elk]

@woven drift yes that would be very helpful🙂

[echo sparrow]

thanks @vernal oxide ! if anyone else has some beachside pools/spas i’d love to see it for some inspo!

[zenith roost]

@tall echo here's what I did (plus my start on Tangy's house) hope some of this helps 😅

[plain flicker]

y’all i keep changing my mind on how i wanna decorate my island and it’s not good 😂😭 i keep getting so much inspo on here and i wanna do so much

[mental current]

[woven drift]

[frank crane]

@woven drift can u dm me some anime style island ideas?

[woven drift]

[swift palm]

I think i won't stick to 1 theme anymore and combine a bunch at this point..

[vernal oxide]

I didn’t even do a theme 😂

[copper forge]

my library/study area ✨ (still a work in progress😳)

[woven drift]

Themes are great for general references, but there are no rules in this game. Design to whatever suits your tastes!

[steep socket]

does anyone have the photo of a really big flower farm w silos in the background, the flowers were rainbow and the pic was really popular

and they used it to advertise their flower shop thingo

[tulip sky]

This is my island, I wanna make a Japanese, Zen, Bamboo kinda island. Anyone got ideas?

[lunar thunder]

I made a little reading area for Poppy🥺

[maiden palm]

@tulip sky an advice: u could make a Zem-Garden not on the layer ur standing on but rather on the level below. U could try to implement various layers ( it worked very well for me )

[south wraith]

does anyone know how i can design these rocks? i have two of them on my island (rocks with water in between)

[barren ridge]

anyone have any fairy/cottage code or my neighbor totoro type islands or designs or inspo pics?

[tulip sky]

@maiden palm Alright, thx!

[maiden palm]

@south wraith summer related stuff? Or u could make a picnic/dinner area

[south wraith]

yeah i totally could!! but i have two of the same rocks type on my island so i need an idea for the second one too haha

[signal flicker]

lf someone to help me w my island layout !

[stuck trail]

@south wraith dive spot, painting spot, shrine, lookout point, relaxing area (like a spa), tide pool area (with seaweed / horseshoe crabs maybe)

[swift palm]

What does a 'my neighbor totoro' island look like?

[south wraith]

thanks for the ideas!! since im going for a cottagecore themed island a tide pool would be awesome, and with the new summer update i could also make a diving spot indeed, thanks!!

[proven carbon]

Hey

Anyone got purple tulips?

[karmic dirge]

hey! if anyone wants to dm or just post their island home layout that would be really nice :) i need some inspo lol

[vernal oxide]

[stiff panther]

For people who are stuck and have already spent a bunch on moving stuff and it ain’t right, there’s this website called Happy Island Designer. It’s pretty helpful

[fresh meadow]

This is the entrance to my island what should I do to make it more interesting?

[supple jewel]

need an idea for where to put a villager neighborhood on the map!

[river cypress]

@fresh meadow flowers!!!

[hollow python]

Is anyone artistic able to help me out drawing my vision out to try referencing for me to build ?

[fresh meadow]

@river cypress ok also it bugs me that my airport is not symmetrical to my plaza thing so it’s off center

[stuck trail]

@fresh meadow for the entrance you could dot some little islands in the waterfall pools and place items there, statues/flowers/etc

[wind grove]

@fresh meadow you could add little island in the water with items on? Like statutes or Celeste items?

[hollow python]

I’ll give any nmt I have or bells I have available if anyone can help me. I’m stumped with how to layout the idea

[fresh meadow]

@stuck trail and @wind grove that sounds cute I’ll probably do that

[latent swan]

I need help on what color door plate to give zucker! Want something that coordinates well with his existing colors, but unsure if I should do red/blue or something different that goes well with his red and blue theme

[fresh meadow]

@latent swan id just do blue

[wind grove]

@latent swan yellow or orange could work, or blue for contrast :)

[crisp onyx]

just finished most of my new shopping area!

[fresh meadow]

[fresh meadow]

Yw but now I’m jealous lol

[icy sandal]

My current entrance, any feedback or ways to improve??

[lunar thunder]

@wind rose i did a like a neighboorhood and gave them lawn based on personality hobby and their house interior and exterior!

[gray hare]

@icy sandal I’d change the tulips to match the color of the hyacinth lamps

[gleaming kelp]

@hollow python youll find more help on nookazon, they do services like that

Lf someone to help me with my cottagecore entrance

[zenith roost]

I sent this earlier with a few ideas in-mind, but now i'm completely lost. I'm currently working on Tangy's orchard/farmers market themed house. I'm in need of more ideas to make it feel a little more complete 😅

[stuck trail]

@zenith roost how about a watermelon / vegetable garden?

[zenith roost]

I already used that concept for Chief's farmhouse, it's a good idea though!

[echo sparrow]

D: that feeling when the path for the border of the pool doesn’t let you put the wood on the grass </3

[zenith roost]

Ouch that'd bother me 🙈

[cloud thorn]

Anyone have any ideas for a pirate themed area near the dock?

[devout ibex]

Thoughts on these farmers market stalls?

[karmic dirge]

@woven drift it looks really good!

[icy flint]

cant believe i spent 2+ hours getting 100 nmt just to spend it on 4 rock head statues

[polar prairie]

any suggestions for my veggie farm or horse stable? preferably no more custom designs as i am full 😹

[vernal oxide]

@polar prairie you could also put some watermelon beach balls as watermelons!!

[devout ibex]

@polar prairie the stable is so creative I love it

[karmic dirge]

i just realized you cant get rid of rivers/move them to another direction 🤡

[mortal ridge]

only even mildly cute part of my island 🥺🥺🕺🕺🕺✨✨

[wet ore]

This was my old island before I flattened it out to start over. This is my new island that I'm creating and I'm loving it! It's still a WIP.

[modern wigeon]

Let me see your fishing spots! Bonus if it’s near your dock

[pastel plank]

Moved my museum, added a stone bridge and a small outdoor study

Gonna add more probably to the left side and change my villagers

@tired terrace this was posted on twitter earlier and I thought it was a really cute inspo board for kiki's delivery service 🥺

[tired terrace]

thats really cool, thx!

[low hound]

hi everyone, I have a lot of space between my airport and residence services (which is off center btw) and I have no idea what to do with all of the space. Does anyone have any suggestions or inspiration??

[zenith roost]

Do you have a certain theme?

[woven drift]

Someone help me I don’t know what to do!

[lavish crane]

Here’s mine

[marble berry]

[craggy prawn]

Cafe or rest area

[woven drift]

Looking for help on my entrance simply out of ideas!

[snow grove]

Any ideas for potential layout? Currently terraforming rivers, but I don’t know what else to do.

[keen lion]

What do you guys think of my entrance? Is it too decorated or not decorated enough?

[rough tulip]

Any ideas for potential layout? Currently terraforming rivers, but I don’t know what else to do.
@snow grove where the little dip in the river is behind the museum, making a kind of island out of that wouyld be nice

[snow grove]

@rough tulip gracias

[keen lion]

@snow grove where the little dip in the river is behind the museum, making a kind of island out of that wouyld be nice
@rough tulip Yeah like make a circle of water around it and have a bridge going to the front of it 🥺

So what did you guys think of my entrance? 🥺👉👈

[craggy prawn]

It’s pretty good just add palm trees to give more of a Hawaii relaxed island vibe

[viscid summit]

is there a way to test your flyover? or, can I go to someones island and fly right back so i can see my flyover?

[novel valley]

Just go to Harv’s island

[runic loom]

anyone have some crowded woods/fairy-esque area ideas?

[abstract kelp]

@keen lion I love it! I think putting some trees/bushes/flowers up on the 2nd level will make it look even better

[viscid summit]

Just go to Harv’s island
@novel valley Harv's Island doesnt give you the flight animation on the way back

[austere owl]

Do yall think its best to decorate the island piece by piece and then connect them together

[keen lion]

@keen lion I love it! I think putting some trees/bushes/flowers up on the 2nd level will make it look even better
@abstract kelp That’s what I started doing (hence the lil sapling up there) thank you so much for the tip!

[abstract kelp]

@austere owl Everyones different but that's what I'm currently doing and it's working out well for me! Makes me feel less overwhelmed

[vernal oxide]

@austere owl I did my island bit by bit and worked my way out from my entrance since I can’t really get areas to work together sometimes

[hexed dragon]

@austere owl I divide my island up into different ideas and focus on that area for around 2 day and then move to the next area.

[vernal oxide]

@snow grove this is currently what my map looks like.

[gray ore]

@vernal oxide Nice villagers.

[snow grove]

@vernal oxide Thank you!

[austere owl]

Ok! I'll see how those work out for me cuz rn im stressed about my island being kinda blank and boring

[hexed dragon]

im trying to get rid of flip(im not a time traveler and its annoying me that it takes this long)

[vernal oxide]

@gray ore @hexed dragon thank you! I’m actually in the process of getting rid of Elmer for Ankha! And then I’ll have all my dream babies 😍

[gray ore]

You only have one bad villager that you need to replace. I have 7. lol

[craggy prawn]

@vernal oxide I just got ankha on my island

[abstract kelp]

Going to be working on extending this forest today It's only surrounding Redd's secret beach atm

[vernal oxide]

@austere owl it is a slow process but as long as its areas YOU love, that is all that matters!

[hexed dragon]

true

[prisma wasp]

The only good villager I have is marshall

[spare fiber]

Can someone give me tips or ideas on how to make my map look better I don’t know what to do lol

[austere owl]

Its is slow! Im using this method rn and I got my museum finished in 3 days! But it turned out how I liked it

[rough tulip]

What do you guys think of my entrance? Is it too decorated or not decorated enough?
@keen lion oh im so sorry aaa! its gorgeous, i love the terraforming and bridge. i would say more items hh

[hexed dragon]

i have limberg on my island and when I tell people most ask why and its because hes nice, so it doesnt matter if others dont like your villagers or your island its yours not theres so be proud of it gtg in 5 mins so bye for now kinda

[austere owl]

"The Path" Looks like my dream and nightmare at the same time

[umbral zephyr]

So I just got the ability to terraform and I have no clue where to start. I’m thinking of just making my whole island flat and then start making cliffs and rivers. Is that crazy or what suggestions do you have? Lol 😅

[hexed dragon]

@umbral zephyr i didnt aether just go with the flow

[vernal oxide]

@umbral zephyr I would say play around with it first before flattening everything haha a lot of people who flattened their island HATED IT

@umbral zephyr there’s also a super helpful guide for terraforming in the pinned section!

[north schooner]

Does anyone have a butterfly garden I could see?

[hexed dragon]

im kind of a hipy i just go with the flow

[lavish crane]

Does anybody have any suggestions on which floor for mermaid area

[hexed dragon]

@north schooner i am in the process of making one, cant show it as my switch is dead

[north schooner]

lol ok

[austere owl]

Does anybody have any suggestions on which floor for mermaid area
@lavish crane The one to the left is cute!

[abstract kelp]

@lavish crane I think left!

[austere owl]

Guys pray for me im using "The path"

[lavish crane]

Thank you @abstract kelp @austere owl

[hexed dragon]

@lavish crane i think the one to the left but go with what you like it your island or is it tom nooks

[umbral zephyr]

@vernal oxide okay great! I’m just so overwhelmed with possibilities lol and seeing other people’s beautiful islands makes me want to start but I get stuck lol

[vernal oxide]

@north schooner not my picture but maybe this will help! You can also search for other pictures with the top right search bar and type in “ in:island-layouts has: image: butterfly “

[north schooner]

oh true I didn't even think of that, thank you!

[vernal oxide]

@umbral zephyr hahah dont stress about it hun!! Just take your time with it and play around with it ! It’s all about trial and error!

[hexed dragon]

gtg bye

[north schooner]

I don't know what I want to do right now... there's just so much to do lol

[vernal oxide]

@north schooner the best advice I could probably give is to work section by section. I started from my entrance and worked my way out decorating and terraforming

[north schooner]

Definitely! I have a lot done tbh but I don’t know what I want to do next.

[umbral zephyr]

Very true haha it’s not that serious and you can always change things if you hate it 😂😂

[north schooner]

I do want to do pathing but I don't want like... straight up pathing that takes over the island because I love the natural-ness of it. I love the little dotted paths people do but it never quite works for me

[storm bluff]

@spare fiber as long as youre content with how your island looks like in game, your map is fine! what your map looks like isnt a direct reflection of what your island looks like, so try not to dwell too much on whether or not your map should look better~

[shrewd delta]

Just finished doing this, how does it look ?

[north schooner]

it's true, I do get caught up on the map though D:

[austere owl]

Just finished doing this, how does it look ?
@shrewd delta I love the flowers, It make the area pop!

[shrewd delta]

Thanks !

[pseudo beacon]

@woven drift maybe a pagoda if you have one

[storm bluff]

@shrewd delta in case you didnt know, you can customize the fabric on the loom! maybe you can change the pattern to make it match the flowers or one of the sweaters outside of the shop~

[lone delta]

Thoughts on my beach pavilion? Think it looks a little plain 😅

[north schooner]

oh it's so cute

[gray ore]

@woven drift I would try to add a table and some chairs to sit at.

[vernal oxide]

@north schooner dont worry too much about the look of the map, as long as you love how the island looks itself!!

[shrewd delta]

oh @storm bluff i didn't know ! i'm gonna try customizing it,

[north schooner]

I do love my little waterfall entrance mountain thingies though.

[vestal birch]

i need island inspo.

send pics of your villagers areas, nooks, and able sisters! i need some inspo for all them!

& an entrance idea

[drowsy python]

Does anyone have a public pool area on their island? If so could u show me a picture?

[vernal oxide]

@vestal birch this is my Nooks and Ables! My villagers are all over the place and their yards need serious work lol

[vestal birch]

tysm!!

[vernal oxide]

@drowsy python this is my pool area!! And I put a smoothie bar on the side with my orchard and bee farm!

[drowsy python]

@vernal oxide that looks awesome! Thanks for the inspo

[vestal birch]

@drowsy python this is my pool area!! And I put a smoothie bar on the side with my orchard and bee farm!
@vernal oxide looks so goodddd. stitches in the back🥰

[vernal oxide]

@vestal birch stitches photo bombs so many of my pictures 😂 also this is my entrance: in between the top and bottom pics I have a fountain and benches!

[plain forge]

@vestal birch my shops are really plain bc the location is suppose to be a LA shopping strip so there's only palm trees! And here are 6 of my villagers (Tammy has replaced Fang's house since this pic) that's down a canal (mirroring the Venice Canal in LA) :) hope it helps!

[umbral zephyr]

@vernal oxide that’s so pretty!

[modern wigeon]

Any suggestions on the awkward corners?

[crisp fractal]

Any tips to improve this area? (I'm planning to move the flowers)

[north schooner]

I liked the flowers actually

[spark peak]

Any suggestions on the awkward corners?
@modern wigeon I actually love this! maybe you can put some star lamps at the corners?

[upper ferry]

Any suggestions for what I should put in front of my zen garden?? Maybe a sushi bar or Octavians house?? Any other ideas?

[thorny nebula]

Give me some kitchen inspo!

[storm bluff]

@thorny nebula try asking in #happy-home-designs if youre looking for interior inspo

[thorny nebula]

Oh sorry! Thank you

[wispy jay]

Anyone have any idea what to do for these villager's lawn? I want to get other villager's for the 3 with X's on them😅

[upper ferry]

@wispy jay I have Audie a beach house with a bunch of Palm Tree lamps and all the beach items with no fences, I really like it!

[north knoll]

[woven drift]

[north knoll]

@woven drift yep^^

[wispy jay]

@vernal oxide @upper ferry thx for the inspo, only problem is there yards are small😅😅

[north knoll]

I need helps on my island i want a space natural theam island but i like the stone path and the 'the path' im stuck

[stable iris]

Coco, Marina, and Muffy (similar concept as Lucky) @wispy jay

[wispy jay]

@stable iris they all look amazing!

[opaque mango]

@wispy jay I have a bunch of light wood stuff out of cocoa house like wash bucket and Cyprus tub. For lucky you should have tombstones

[static lava]

gorgeous!

[wispy jay]

@opaque mango oh okie!

[upper ferry]

@wispy jay give Erik a house with a campfire and some mush lamps! He’s the most natural villager in the game besides Fauna haha

[lunar thunder]

@wispy jay idid this for eriks lawn!

The best for my fav villager

[wispy jay]

@lunar thunder @upper ferry thx for the ideas!! And that looks amazing!!

[hidden gyro]

Anybody have any inspo/ideas on how to lay out my museum here? I have a huge amount of space & I’m kinda stuck rn

[fair hill]

Goodbye Fairytail logo 👆

[pliant sun]

Y’all I finally got (trapped) Celeste in her viewing area 🤩 HER EYES are so pretty

Hehe if you are looking for island inspo, my instagram is @ebon cedarisle 💛

[vernal oxide]

@hidden gyro top to bottom pictures is like walking up to my museum. A huge area lol

[zealous grove]

I decided to tear down my island for the 50th time so..goodbye everything

[fair hill]

It sure did now I have no space for anything 😢

[lime jasper]

@zealous grove make a huge yard sale!!😭

[hidden gyro]

@vernal oxide omg ty!! That looks great I love it

[plain forge]

Goodbye Fairytail logo 👆
@fair hill nooooo I thought about doing that but it was a headache... rip

[zealous grove]

Hahaha... I keep npcing stuff i dun need. U.U;;; and flower bombing people

[lime jasper]

Oof

[thorny dawn]

Anyone have inspiration for a romantic date area? Mine is kinda plain...

[zealous grove]

Old layout before I smash everything

[lime jasper]

Yay!

[snow grove]

Anybody have cottage core theme to their island? If so, can I see y’all’s map layouts?

[runic granite]

My island is Disney themed island 🌴

[stable iris]

@thorny dawn maybe add an upright piano for musical ambience. Try moving the tea set onto a serving cart and replacing it with a flower in a vase.

[north knoll]

Ok now this is risky but i need some on to help my dig my flowers and place em on beach i need to pick up all my item fist it may take a while i will pay you thank you

[woven drift]

I love making waterfalls that don’t make sense irl

[vernal oxide]

@north knoll you might be able to find someone in #flower-plants-trade

[wooden stump]

Nice

[drowsy wharf]

Does anyone know what to do in this empty part of my island?

[upper ferry]

LF: Grand Piano, Kimono Stand, and Single tables! FT: NMT, gold, bells

[drowsy wharf]

Uhh this isn’t the market place

[vernal oxide]

@upper ferry use #furniture-trade

[upper ferry]

Excuse me

[vernal oxide]

@upper ferry there’s different chats. Was just letting you know which one to go to

[upper ferry]

Yeah no sorry I meant excuse me like I apologize

[hollow narwhal]

Someone who’s amazing at building please help me! Idk what to do with my entrance and it’s driving me crazy 😭

[upper ferry]

I forgot what chat I was in

@hollow narwhal 100% terraform something

[limber crater]

@hollow narwhal your island looks pretty urban from what I can tell, maybe like a visitor center?

[vernal oxide]

@upper ferry it’s okay! It’s hard to tell someone’s tone through a message. And there’s someone who’s in this chat a lot who doesn’t like me for whatever reason 😂 so I’m usually on guard. I’m sorry hun!

[abstract kelp]

@hollow narwhal This is what I did with mine! My RS is super close to my airport though. I love the idea of terraforming the entrance and creating waterfalls

[ember tusk]

@hollow narwhal im not good at building but it seems like its a city theme.. maybe add a bus stop since your coming from an "airport"

[analog basin]

Anyone have any tips on how to make rivers look more natural? (Or maybe I can see everyone elses' rivers for inspiration)? I removed all my rivers and re-did them...they look like I tried too hard lol

[upper ferry]

@vernal oxide all good! You’re very polite! I love everyone who plays Animal Crossing New Horizons

[abstract kelp]

That is true though, seems like your island is an urban/city style

[hollow narwhal]

Thanks so much guys! I literally have been stuck for MONTHS with this. It’s been empty since I got the game

[limber crater]

@analog basin place the curves randomly and don't try to plan out where the river turns unless you really want it to go a certain direction. figure out an end and a beginning and just start digging (that's what I do)

[abstract kelp]

@hollow narwhal If you use the search bar, there's some really good inspo under "city entrance" and "urban entrance" they might help!

[fresh meadow]

My entrance is really off center because my airport is and it really bugs me but I don’t wanna redo my whole entrance cause that would take forever and idk what to do 😔😔😢😭😭

[analog basin]

@fresh meadow what kind of island theme are you going for?

[fresh meadow]

Pink with a lotta waterfalls

[final linden]

I don’t know what to do here lol

[vernal oxide]

@final linden theres a list of ideas in the pinned section!!

[cyan ruin]

Build an empire

[low egret]

Hello guys! I need some help on a big project in ACNH I’m starting tomorrow, I’m going to convert some of my island to a pirate/Wild West theme! Is anyone has any pictures, items, or ideas you think would work them please lmk!

[analog basin]

@fresh meadow why not make a waterfall entrance but it's kinda forest-y like? (or beach themed, etc) and theres a windy dirt road that follows to resident services? (by 'entrance', you mean resident services, right?)

[upper ferry]

FT: Moon and Rocket ship. LF: a lot of bells (around 1.5-2 million)

[fresh meadow]

I have a waterfall entrance but it’s still off center also those are good ideas

@upper ferry that’s a lotta money I’m trying to pay of my 1 M loan and it’s taking forever I need money sorry off topic anyway I’ll shut up now

[upper ferry]

@woven drift sorry wrong chat. @fresh meadow it’s very little money trust me 😉 I jisy don’t wanna do turnips tomorrow 😂😂

[red prairie]

I need island inspo, if anyone could send in their map? Just so I could get an idea

[fresh meadow]

That’s not a little money... for me.... I’m poor ok

[low egret]

Hello guys! I need some help on a big project in ACNH I’m starting tomorrow, I’m going to convert some of my island to a pirate/Wild West theme! Is anyone has any pictures, items, or ideas you think would work them please lmk! What I kind of what the area to be like, is if anybody’s by some chance been to Cedar Point, I’m basing it off Cedar Points frontier town.

[analog basin]

@fresh meadow yeah i think the best way to deal with things being off center is to create a natural looking space with cliffs/waterfalls. but it flows really well? or anything not so symmetrical. even something like creating a windy hiking path from the airport to resident services would be cool!

[woven drift]

does anyone have an example of an excellent usage of paths for a bench and shrub area? i saw this reddit post once but I just couldnt get off my mind how nice it looked

[fresh meadow]

@analog basin Ok

Also where can I make money super fast?? I need help with that I’m very poor

[woven drift]

ive used the search bar, yes with the has:image but I just cannot find that great use of curved brick paths and benches and shrubs in the middle

@red prairie type in has:image and try typing entrance, layout etc in the search bar

[clear rover]

Could someone help me out with a question regarding bridges and cliffs

[vernal oxide]

@red prairie this is what my map looks like currently!

[low egret]

[fresh meadow]

Ok I just needs to pay off my loan but I’ll do that thx

[vernal oxide]

@fresh meadow the easiest way I made money or got NMT was letting people catalogue items or sell items. Especially if you’re letting someone catalogue a whole set! It’s easy money

[fresh meadow]

How do u let people catalogue items?

[soft plaza]

@low egret Pirate gulliver added in the update has a bunch of pirate items https://nintendosmash.com/heres-every-new-item-you-can-get-from-pirate-gulliver-in-animal-crossing-new-horizons/

[vernal oxide]

@low egret type in “in:island-layouts has: image: Wild West” in the top right search bar

@fresh meadow you can use the catalogue channel and show people a picture of whatever you’re allowing them to catalogue. You can place the items down in a fenced area completely blocked with a stool. So therefore they can go into the items without paying you first. So if you have a stool in place of one fence it allows them to go in when you allow. All they need to do is pick up the item and drop it

[fresh meadow]

Oh that’s cool imma do it

[soft plaza]

@low egret also try the subredit cause theres some good inspo there https://www.reddit.com/r/AnimalCrossing/search?q=pirate&restrict_sr=1

[vernal oxide]

@fresh meadow and then you can set a price you want to charge for each person, or the amount of items. For instance I charged 3 NMT to let others catalogue the surfboard set. If you need a picture to see what I mean let me know and I can dm you!

[fresh meadow]

So basically all the stuff I’ve ever picked up is catalogued ...?

[vernal oxide]

@fresh meadow yup! There’s certain items that can’t be catalogued such as saharah wallpaper and flooring, Gulliver items, redd art, etc. but everything catalogued you can order yourself!

[fresh meadow]

Ok cool imma do that tysm guys @vernal oxide Okie dokie

[low egret]

@vernal oxide ty! I didn’t know you could do that!

[dry acorn]

Anyone has their campsite on the beach?

[tired crypt]

My entrance is still a wip but here it is-

[vernal oxide]

@dry acorn I did before on my old island. Unfortunately I don’t have any pictures from that, but it was pretty basic. I had a little campsite with logs around it and a ukulele nearby and a few other things!

[dry acorn]

:( mine is also on the beach but it looks so plain

[low egret]

@soft plaza ty!

[cosmic flax]

can someone send ideas of resident services? i don’t have any

[dry acorn]

I think I'm gonna move it to the back right corner. Rn it's at the front

[wispy jay]

I know this isn't the right place but more people are on here. Does anyone know the code for these planks?

[vernal oxide]

@cosmic flax this is what I did with mine!

[cosmic flax]

ooooh!! ty!!

[dry acorn]

I wish I could send videos here. I wanna show my entrance

[low egret]

@vernal oxide how do you take screenshots with your switch without just taking photos of your tv?

[balmy violet]

Best flower combo for in front of your museum that's surrounded by imperial fencing?

[icy flint]

to take pictures or videos you can save them on your switch album and then post them on twitter and send it here then

[oak temple]

Entrance is still wip, but here's mine. ft. Maple

[fresh meadow]

@oak temple awe it’s amazing I love it

[vernal oxide]

@low egret so if you take the picture with the nook phone or even just a picture with the switch button on the left side, I throw a filter on it, and send it to fb or Twitter! From there you can save it to your phone and upload it that way. Dm me if you need like video reference! It sounds super confusing

[low egret]

@vernal oxide oh that’s a really great idea! Ty!

[oak temple]

@balmy violet if its me, i'd either put lilies or hyacinths.
@fresh meadow thank you 🥺 im having trouble on what to items/plants to put so it doesn't look too spacious

[fresh meadow]

@oak temple well u did a good job 👏 my island is still trash lol 😂

[pearl compass]

What do you guys think of my entrance?

[vernal oxide]

@dry acorn I found out today I can take a 30 second video on switch. If you hold down the picture button on your actual switch, it takes a video of the last 30 seconds of whatever you were doing. From there I posted it to my fb, went on my phone, screen recorded and THEN cropped it and so on to post here! Which turned into this;

[fresh meadow]

@pearl compass it’s cute!! 😁

[oak temple]

@fresh meadow trust me, my island now is 80% trash. bc i demolished it to actually have a theme 😭

[fresh meadow]

@oak temple awe that’s too bad my island theme sucks it pink like wth 😂

[pearl compass]

@fresh meadow I wanted to go with my favorite colors, so I’m doing a small town kind of theme

[dry acorn]

@vernal oxide but how did you post it here? It only allows pictures!

[fresh meadow]

@pearl compass well u did a good job jeez u guys are so creative I feel like I shouldn’t be here 😂

[icy flint]

cap

[vernal oxide]

@dry acorn nope! You can also post videos!

[dry acorn]

This is how my entrance looks currently. I'll see if I can send a vid bc at the end of the bridge is resident services

[austere owl]

iM SO OVERWHELMED RN, THIS IS SCARY

[vernal oxide]

@dry acorn I’m going to dm you so I can maybe break it down. It was super complicated

[dry acorn]

Agh thanks!

[oak temple]

@fresh meadow i wanted mine to be pink too (but "simple asian pink theme" 🤣 ) but because of too much rain last month and my island was full of colors 🤦🏻‍♀️

[fresh meadow]

@dry acorn your island is ADORABLE

[pearl compass]

@fresh meadow that’s how I feel! Everyone has amazing mountains and stuff! I just have my crazy theme.

[oak temple]

@dry acorn ur entrance looks great!

[fresh meadow]

@oak temple oh lol 😂 @pearl compass yeah but ur island is ACTUALLY ADORABLE

[dry acorn]

Thanks guys!! 🥰

I think i need flowers all around the outer border

[pearl compass]

@fresh meadow the rest of my island is trash lol

[deft ember]

yea

[fresh meadow]

@pearl compass the only part of my island I’m semi proud of is my entrance and even that isn’t centered right lol 😂

[oak temple]

@dry acorn yea! and try adding benches for like waiting area

[dry acorn]

There are benches on the inside. Let me get a better pic. But yeah it needs something more

[oak temple]

@pearl compass @fresh meadow SAME. haha! i put too much work for entrance 🤣

[fresh meadow]

I put too much work in it so I don’t wanna start over to make it centered 😂

[high quiver]

how to create circle path? similar to a roundabout?

[fresh meadow]

@runic granite whoa ur making me feel really bad now 😬

[pearl compass]

@oak temple I figured I’d branch out from the entrance eventually

[runic granite]

Nice

[fresh meadow]

@pearl compass same but that didn’t happen 😂

[austere owl]

I compeleted my museum!

[fresh meadow]

Ok gtg now bye peoples

[icy flint]

bye bye

[frosty wedge]

i'd love to tour some fairycore/cottagecore islands! i can tip 99k bells : )

[tired crypt]

[oak temple]

@pearl compass me too. i have too 😭

[dry acorn]

@runic granite omg I love it! I saw a girl make it on her YouTube channel. Truly a lot of creativity. I could never

[austere owl]

I compeleted my museum!, Ya might have to full screen it...

[icy flint]

"the path"

tbh why is it whenever i need a bamboo island for a villager and some diy i won't get it but whenever i don't want it i get them

[vernal oxide]

@austere owl it’s cute!! I love the pathing you used for it! I would recommend maybe some more flowers and maybe even displaying fossils!

[frosty wedge]

also uhh this is my entrance currently, if anyone wants to give me some ideas on what to add : )

[oak temple]

@icy flint bc tom nook runs the game and he wont let us get what we want!
@austere owl i love it! also love the use of the weed! 😍

[sullen sable]

anyone have inspo for a art garden area

[vernal oxide]

@austere owl I see the fossil LMAO maybe it’s too late for me to be up 😭😂

[woven drift]

@frosty wedge add some bushes!

[clear field]

someone tear my map apart

[astral phoenix]

Finished my nooks cranny! Heheh all the trees are money trees lmao

[icy flint]

is there any shogi board in animal crossing or anything similar to it?

[austere owl]

Im trying to go for a overgrown urban town with a bit of a cottage core feel to it

[dry acorn]

Heck yeah! I did it lol @vernal oxide thank you

[vernal oxide]

@dry acorn no problem love!! It looks good!!

[dry acorn]

Thanks! I hope it'll look better once I add flowers

[woven drift]

I've got some inspo pics for that @sullen sable

[oak temple]

@dry acorn yep! definitely flowers lol add flowers, didn't know its that close, it looks great 😍

[vernal oxide]

@sullen sable I didn’t necessarily do an art garden, but I made an art display area! Or working on one at least 😂

[crisp fractal]

What y'all think?

[dry acorn]

@dry acorn yep! definitely flowers lol add flowers, didn't know its that close, it looks great 😍
@oak temple it's like 15 squares lol

[woven drift]

@icy flint how about the go board?

[dry acorn]

Currently have a flower problem. Gotta figure this out

[oak temple]

@vernal oxide its looks amazing 😍😍

[woven drift]

@dry acorn I feel your pain. Beach them or just sacrifice them. Not like you cant grow/buy them from other people later anyway

[sullen sable]

moe can u send them :0

[vernal oxide]

@oak temple thank you!! It leads up to Diana and Raymond’s houses which are in front of my library

[icy flint]

@woven drift that will work haven't seen that before

[pearl compass]

I can’t save my video from twitter

[dry acorn]

@dry acorn I feel your pain. Beach them or just sacrifice them. Not like yoo u can grow/buy them from other people later anyway
@woven drift yeah I just feel like I'm selling or killing my babies. Even though I've been neglecting them and they've basically grown on their own 😂

[icy flint]

@pearl compass screen record?

[vernal oxide]

@pearl compass I screen recorded my video and then cropped it from there to post!

[oak temple]

@vernal oxide omg the fancy houses haha i got those two too! i should put them both right next to each other too 🤣 bc im building library for diana's exterior and office for raymond. i can just hit 2 birds with one stone. You're genius envy!

[icy flint]

beat ya too it lol

[vernal oxide]

@oak temple aww thank you 😭🥰 I absolutely fell in love when I seen Diana in glasses. MY QUEEN SLAYS THAT LOOK

@icy flint and yeah but you came off rude asf about it 😂

[woven drift]

@dry acorn I getcha. But trust me, taking the time to clear things out and having only the flowers you need made my life way easier

[icy flint]

i don't mean to but atleast im straight to the point

[oak temple]

@vernal oxide right! also her tune sounds so fancy and elegant aaah

[dry acorn]

I have been loving the wedding fence, too

[vernal oxide]

And I’m nice about it so 🥳

@oak temple and yesss!! Nobody can mess with Diana

[dry acorn]

Gotta add some paths and also FLOWERS as always

[oak temple]

yall did amazing in ur museum my museum is surrounded by falls 🤦🏻‍♀️ its loud af hahaha

[vernal oxide]

I finally got new pictures of my museum entrance so maybe it’s less explaining lol

[dry acorn]

I love how waterfalls look but they take up so much space and I'm too lazy to take the time to terraform everything 🙃

Aaaah it reminds me of how my museum looked before I tore everything down. Let me see if I can find a pic

[naive raptor]

my museum is like 3 feet away from my house 🤘😔🤘

[vernal oxide]

@oak temple try having waterfalls around your house and getting on the game to hear a very loud waterfall 🤢

[icy flint]

^ my house lmao

[oak temple]

@dry acorn ikr its also 2 tier falls so.. 💀💀

[vernal oxide]

Also! I finally stopped being lazy and got the newest pictures of my Able’s since I decorated with some Mom’s items!

[oak temple]

um, @vernal oxide ur too amazing omg 😍 keep posting give us ideas!! 😍😍 hahah i love it sm

edit: crying in corner bc im too lazy and seems i cant finish a crap area in my island

[vernal oxide]

And my library I still love more than any other part of my island. Took a new picture to show the other table and log chairs on the left side

@oak temple hahaha I’ve tore down this new island two times already. And with starting work I’ve become more and more lazy to fully finish everything 😅

[light robin]

Feedback please!

[woven drift]

Does anyone have any good floor patterns for a museum type area? Im trying to make a Gulliver item museum and want something special

[oak temple]

its the terraforming. i dont mind the crafting and looking for mata but TERRAFORMING STRESSES ME 😂 also my map hahah!

[vernal oxide]

@light robin I think it looks good so far!! I would say maybe add a white drink machine, and move the bench you are on over a little to fit it and maybe even some street lights! (But ignore me if that’s not the loom you’re going for 😂)

[light robin]

Ty will put in pro consideration!🥰

[pearl compass]

These are my little destinations I made. I’m so proud of my silly spin class.

[vernal oxide]

@oak temple when I tell you my entrance to museum went from first to second pics 😂😂 I didn’t terraform anything on my island. And then terraformed certain areas! Even if they were small

[oak temple]

@light robin i was about to say streetlamps too, its looks good so far!

[native moth]

Thoughts on my onsen??? Are the statue placements okay? Like do you get it? 😖

[light robin]

I only have green drink machines, will that look okay

[vernal oxide]

@pearl compass the spin class is a super cute idea!! Also yess!! Pic collage gang !

[tawny wolf]

@ slyfri I'd wanna go there irl

[finite portal]

LF cottagecore/natural inspo

[crisp depot]

Show me your star viewing areas! 🤩

[vernal oxide]

@light robin try seeing if you can buy a white drink machine from nookazon or from #furniture-trade !

[light robin]

I don’t have online so :/

[pearl compass]

@vernal oxide somehow I got like 3 bikes and was like: well, time to make a spin class 🤣

[oak temple]

@pearl compass @vernal oxide IT LOOKS AMAZING.

[pearl compass]

My full entrance area. I have free diy’s and my garden for watering up front

[oak temple]

@light robin aw, what color is your drink machine?

[light robin]

Green

[pearl compass]

@oak temple thank you!

[oak temple]

@light robin green might actually looks good to, probably( if u want to) customize the bench or find some items that can contrast but still kinda blends the colors of the machines, sorry not really good at explaining ☹️

[vernal oxide]

@light robin I think it looks good then! You could also even make a stall and maybe customize some cushions with food designs!

[light robin]

Ok thank you everyone!

[oak temple]

@rocky hare looks so good! also ur head on the statue hahah!

[icy flint]

[oak temple]

@vernal oxide the way stitches was with the bears, i cant handle 🥺

[rocky hare]

@oak temple ty! All I need is the real statue and I'll be satisfied lol

[woven drift]

@icy flint and yes they are!

[vernal oxide]

@oak temple he’s so adorable and photo bombed so many pictures 😂 like my pool picture I took- I think it’s cause I have a honey area set up to the right where he’s running 😂

[woven drift]

To the cottagecore gods on here: would you mind sending pics of your map layout? Curious to see how some of you space out your buildings

[icy flint]

personally i like to put fake statues on display rather than real idk why just incase one of my best friends take it

[oak temple]

if only redd visits more often and gulliver would give good items other than that hair thingy he gave me 🤣 bc he never gives me good ones 😭

[icy flint]

only good thing i got was the tower of pisa and that was a QUICK flip lmao

[stable iris]

@woven drift

[icy flint]

why does your map look bigger than mine

[oak temple]

@vernal oxide he was running while i was taking cute pics of poppy yesterday 🤣🤣 but i also happen to capture a moment for poppy 🤣

[soft belfry]

anyone got nice shops/market/ables/nooks inspo?

[vernal oxide]

@oak temple that is literally so freaking cute!

@soft belfry this is mine!!

[lilac basin]

Any ideas for this space? It's Freya's house island. Obviously flowers n path are probably not staying

[woven drift]

@stable iris oh wow, I sense "the path" on here, very nice layout! Do you ever miss the in game designs, or does the customizing leave you satisfied with it?

[oak temple]

unfortunately this is the only picture i have 🤣 but ables was behind ny cranny @soft belfry

[austere owl]

I have a little picture of dom on my gas pump and I cant stop laughing at it 🤣

[wet ore]

This makes me so happy

[oak temple]

y'all have amazing islands and ideas!! 😍😍 i gtg , have a good night everyone or day!

[unreal sundial]

Anyone have any ideas of what to put to the left of my plaza?

[stable iris]

@woven drift Thanks! I actually haven’t used ‘the path TM’, but my island is essentially custom designs. Since I actually don’t really care what my map looks like, I don’t mind not using the stock paths ☺️

[vernal oxide]

@unreal sundial there’s a list of ideas in the pinned section that might fit!

[unreal sundial]

@vernal oxide where do I find the pinned section?

[green olive]

I made a tiki bar! Any ideas to what I can put at the bottom of the area?, I’m thinking on more chairs but what’s the point of no one will see them.

[vernal oxide]

@unreal sundial if you’re on mobile there’s a little person icon in the top right corner and then click on that, then click on “pins” and just scroll down until you see a black list and pink list! If you don’t see it let me know!

[unreal sundial]

@vernal oxide ohh ty!!!

[vernal oxide]

@green olive I think adding some coconut drinks on the table would be cute!!

[wet ore]

@Panpan#5223 foosball table

[green olive]

@green olive I think adding some coconut drinks on the table would be cute!!
@vernal oxide tysm! Now that I think about it it’s a great idea!

[indigo ravine]

What do you all think about my work in progress butterfly sanctuary? It needs a bit more light, more butterflies, and more nature. But here is a general look. It will also be extending down into the beach via custom path.

[grizzled egret]

it looks great!

[indigo ravine]

Also, I need to put in a bridge, plus, the current path will be replaced with this one. Just gotta wait till tommorow so ables is open

[icy flint]

@woven drift do you by any chance have the code for the stalls?

[indigo ravine]

Also, j was thinking garden lanterns would light the place up nicely. Or should I use hyacinth lamps?

[wet ore]

I like how you use the flowers to hide the stands. It is a great illusion! @indigo ravine

[vernal oxide]

@indigo ravine hyacinth lamps!! I was just about to mention that 😂

[indigo ravine]

Thanks a bunch. Ok. I'll wait for my purple hyacinths to clone and make em

[woven drift]

@icy flint dms <33

[vernal oxide]

@indigo ravine I have a purple hyacinth little field if you want to come by and pick them! I’m watching YouTube so I can swing them open for you!

@vernal oxide great! I'll dm you. I've got a friend over right now, but I can come after they leave!

[woven drift]

Can i get some help with cliff building, im trying to build a place for nooks cranny

[austere owl]

Able sisters and Nooks cranny fronts!

[vernal oxide]

@woven drift what exactly are you trying to do? I put my ables behind my Nooks on a cliff

[woven drift]

Im trying to build this area up to a small shopping area for my nooks cranny

[vernal oxide]

@woven drift I would say terraform a cliff, do you want a huge area in front of Nooks? Or just a walkway up?

[undone orchid]

what would yall offer for marina in nmt

[stoic pawn]

wrong channel, try #acnh-chat⛱️ or #villager-trade

[icy flint]

tbh i see her going around for free sometimes on the free villager channel

[stoic pawn]

yeah my friend got her free lol

[woven drift]

A small area with some cliffs and some trees considering its already on a cliff

[vernal oxide]

@woven drift the shop is a 7x4 dimension. So if you build a cliff depending on how big of an area you want, make a marker to outline where the shop would go! And give it room depending on what you want to add

[icy flint]

tbh villagers like kabuki (only one who i paid for) was worth any nmt for me

i got coco for free since i got lucky, and zucker

[runic granite]

Hunted mansion

[woven drift]

Thanks

[vernal oxide]

@woven drift or if it’s easier. Mark the dirt path to outline, terraform it up, then terraform up more area around to add trees and such!

[glossy yoke]

on the way to residential area☺️

[green olive]

@crisp depot that’s so cute, what are those rock candy looking lights? They’re so pretty
