one of my favourite spots on my island right now 🥰 little pond in Motunui's overgrown rainforest
@vital tundra it’s the log round table, if you don’t have the diy i have a couple others that i’m not using atm if you want to come grab one?
sure, thatd be so awesome!!! thank you so much!!!:0
any ideas on a beach front? i hate the hedges :/ should i terraform? and for the second pic would a bridge look nice? between the cliffs and connected to the waterfall pond
would love some advice! 🙂 (ignore my foot ew)
New coffee shop!! (I took inspiration off of @charred grove!!, their coffee shop was so pretty I wanted to make it in my island also!)
ooo thats cute!!!!
@sudden turtle thank you so much!!
np!!!
@sudden turtle it was such a pain to find a person to catalog that fireplace haha
the struggle is reallllll lmao
Hahaha yea and looking for the recipe for the wooden stools too lol
yupp, i dont even have a sign diy yet, i dont even know if its a diy tbh haha
anything to put here ? I have this area and another area
@sudden turtle oo yea I’m pretty sure it’s a diy it’s takes a lot of trading to get digs you want lmao
This is where i wish stars. But its not cute
how could i make this beachfront less awkward i hate the hedges
@leaden quest you could do a riverside cafe or also a picnic area!
yup haha, diys are pretty hard to find once you have a bunch
This is where i wish stars. But its not cute
@primal hatch thats really cute!!
@wispy tiger have any references of both ?
@sudden turtle haha yes I agree
@sudden turtle ty it feels not cute enough tho
anyone have any tips for me? it would be vv helpful 🥺
how could i make this beachfront less awkward i hate the hedges
@soft belfry the hedges look nice!!, maybe you could add like a tiki boardwalk or somthing? just an idea
im not that good at coustemizing beaches haha
@sudden turtle yeah ive been struggling to separately land from sand if that makes sense but ty!
i also cant spell lmao, also np!!
@leaden quest maybe something like this but tweak it to fit the area you have!!
oo thats cute!! it would work!!
@wispy tiger that looks amazing! ☺️
thinking of doing a diagonal bridge in between the cliffs, any thoughts? would it even work?
What should I build near the jocks? I have a flower garden for the peppy and a zen waterfall for cranky
any museum terraforming ideas?
@charred grove thank you so much!! Yours looked amazing also!!
Has anyone used iron fencing around Nook's/Able Sisters? Trying to decide what kind of bridge I want to put directly next to Nook's
I think this looks nice.
It’s nothing special but I tried decorating my nooks cranny a lil bit
Does anybody know what this fence is ? If so if anybody had them im willing to pay for sum
It’s the corral fence!
Okay thank you some much!
Is this okay? I’m trying to make my island look better and I’m giving Queen Julia her own little plot
@glad notch love it!!! 💕
thanks!
How pink can Rosie’s yard be? Still not pink enough
@blissful schooner maybe a custom flooring?
I was thinking of doing pink tiles!
Is this a cute bridge design?
Does it work so far though?
ADORABLE!!!!
Ooo yess I think that some pink flooring would look amazing and some more pink flowers!
@golden nest so cute!!!
Definitely some pink Roses for Rosie
Ok I’ll keep it then! Ty both 
I was thinking of putting my museum here but it wont fit, might take down the area below it. Anywhere else i can put?
Anyway I love maple’s library so far, even if it doesn’t make sense in the rain
@tight badge Id try around C-D4 ish
I’ll see if it can fit, i never really realise how small islands are
anyone got a pirate hidden beach?
I need inspo for my fairycore island- if anyone has any feel free to dm me them!!
@tight badge try to expand the place from the sides and back, its really a good place for a museum
What should I make for my smug characters?
@night rock for my two smug villagers I did a private beach (marshal) and am about to do a little art display (Raymond)
I was thinking for the area for my smug was a lake or a beach
I can show you pics of the private beach if you’d like 😄 @night rock
Yes please
Hello everybody, to everyone who helped me with what i should do.
I finished the spa and nail salon
Hmm okay I'll try and make a private beach not sure how but I can try...
@golden nest do you have the code for that path? that’s something i’ve been looking for cause i’m using the original one rn
LMAO i was like 😳 that’s the original
Hmm idk if I can find it 😳
So I miscalculated the space I need availible and im trying to place a staircase which makes me have to shave off 2 spaces. So should I curve my path around the stairs like this or place the stairs horizontally?
I’ll try to find it rq but I doubt I can 😭😭
can you tell me what’s it called? @golden nest
i could be able to find it that way just give me the name of one of the designs
Forest trail “UP L” @stark cobalt
How can I make the private beach?
found it :))
Hmm well I have something like this so that helps to make it more private. If you happen to have a small nook like this it would really help create the secluded vibe you’re looking for @night rock
Omg yay! @stark cobalt I’m so glad you found it
Sorry I couldn’t be of much help 😥
i know i’m so glad they have that criteria search option now 😭
Finally done with Bones’ house 
Ugh still don't know what to do for my jocks Couse like I don't want to make a gym...
Which jock is it? I’ve got Teddy (an orange bear) and I’m planning to make an orange farm for his yard!
I've got axel the elephant
Hes an elephant so maybe a little pond
A little elephant shaped pond omg
This is my island so can you mark where would be good? And like a pond isn't really jock...
True I guess. Ive been basing the yards off my villagers and not the peraonalitys so in that case I have no idea lol
Well I dunno then bud. Also that spot in the top left would be perfect for a private beach!
Hey a pond could be jock though... Swimming is excercise lol
Fr fr^
But how would I even make it jock
You could give him a house on the beach with a surf shop? I dunno
So jocks on the beach and then where do smugs go?
i put my jock next to my normal and snooty i didn’t make the personality have to be some where
like their yards are what can really define them
Nah I'm doing areas like normals will be near a forest and peppy near flower garden
Yeah I personally didn’t theme my villagers after their personalities. Like for Bones who always talks about bugs, I gave him a little bug center
Hmm how about you give the jock a beachfront house with a surf shop and then the smugs can have a little secluded area like this??
It doesn’t have to be a farm I’m just saying a little secluded area 
Y’all omg my dog is dreaming and growling in his sleep I can’t. Sorry that’s off topic but like... cmon
does anyone have cottagecore marketplace pics
My bro says the I can have jocks on the beach cause surfing isn't a jock thing
Surfing.. isn’t a jock thing?? But surfing is a sport..
Apparently jocks don't go surfing
and @night rock keep in mind you don’t have to decorate based on personality unless you want to. i prefer to decorate based on what their house looks like / what they look like, since some of the personalities can get a little bland
no villagers technically go surfing
I-
@tranquil mountain I want to
Then put him on the beach with a surfboard and stuff like that
Alright well I’ve provided all the help I can. Sorry.
...or you could make him a gym since you don’t like that jocks can’t actually surf...
yeah all jocks care about is the gym so unfortunately it’s limited there. maybe you could do a hiking trail or something? since they like to be outside
There really aren’t many options other than a gym so something is gonna have to work 😅 ^as far as decorating to fit personality
Yeah
Maybe, I'll look at types of gyms that don't look like they are in a town or city
That’s why I don’t have a jock villager 😂 all they talk about is... working out
yeah i had to get rid of my jock because i was tired of him talking about running marathons and literally nothing else
Understandable lmao
I just want to get all the dialogue since it can be repetitive 😅
I’ve had three jocks in the past though 😳
Rudy and teddy are the only jocks I’d consider but that bland personality is such a turn off
But now I have 4 normal, 3 lazy, 2 smug and a cranky 😅😅
I’ve got 2 normal, 2 smug, and then 1 of everything else 😚
Tbh, I put mountain bikes by scoot’s house to lead him to the path from his house to the camping site I set up besides the actual campsite that NPCs appear in, which his behind his house
I had Scoot as a dreamie once but he doesn’t fit the vibe of my island, I have all like grey, brown and white villagers... and then he’s bright green
I have 3 normal, 1 smug, 2 peppy, 2 snooty, and 2 lazy. lol
I GOT THE IDEA!!! I can make a basketball court
Very nice. Glad you found something you liked 😅
Thank you all for the help
Not mine but my friends, it was too good i had to share
That’s crazy
Heyyy, I want to make my island kind of like some sort of Japanese Zen garden or cherry blossom theme. I’ve gotten.. well, nowhere. I just have no clue where to start. Any tips?
welcome to sherb's sorbet and ice cream 🥺
does Sherb sell sherbert too?
yes 🥺
Anyone have garden area in front yard or garden area for inspo? 😊
@willow bloom this garden leads up to my museum 😊
That look cute! 😄 I am after like gardening kind of area >.<
Where could I put 2 houses on the beach kind a next to each other
Super late to the topic but (dialogues) that’s why derpy looking jock villagers work so well when that contrast with their muscle talk like dom and roald
The funny thing about Dom too is he's got the play hobby so he doesn't lift as often as other jocks
My version of Okita’s grave is finished. Public access is still not allowed just like irl😣 and I am still a weeb for this.
Opinions on bridges anyone? My island’s an overgrown rainforest c: I think the suspension bridge fits better? But I like the log bridge too 😭
Another vote for suspension bridge
i think suspension bridge looks nice too
@woven drift awe the suspension bridge looks so woodland like and foresty! If that's the vibe you're going for, definitely go with that one 🙂 ❤️
I made a bus stop today also my theme is city theme do you guys think it’s weird my island is named Milky Way if it’s a city themed?
My island is city theme too and named Elsweyr lol. There’s nothing skyrim about my island either 🤷🏻♀️
You think that’s fine?
I love the way my house exterior looks at night
Any suggestions? I really just don’t know what to build here
what should this area be?
I wish I could’ve renamed mine from wolf coven to Coney Island, cause of the boardwalk I made and me living in NY and there’s a statue of Liberty...BUT I kinda vining the gore themes that I’ve been watching tours of on YouTube...
@tardy pebble is that weird tho?
Wolf coven sounds way cooler
Which? Wolf Coven? No
I meant Milky Way for a city island
I don’t think Milky Way is weird
Any body have some park ideas I can look at?
Err sure one sec
went with the suspension bridge! thank you @paper coyote @fossil ice @merry robin @noble juniper 🥰
Thanks 😊
No problem I had it one square longer, but made it one shorter for my ramp for cliff ramping around it. Lol
@woven drift dw my island is called density because of a stupid inside joke
Can anyone send me a picture of some neighborhood areas? I'm currently working on mine and struggling.
@static patrol CUTEEE
Finally reset my island and I kept trying til I got a map I wanted. Now let's see how long before I go crazy..wanted a challenge so I got double south river(it doesn't seem to be a popular map).
i have a double south river map haha
i have to say i do regret it tho it’s a little awkward to worth with
double south river here as well and it.is.a.struggle omfg
hiii can someone send me entrance ideas for close and uneven residential services
tips on how to deal w a close and uncentered residential services!! i need some inspo (pls dm me photos)
can any of you cottagecore gays and girls show me how you did cafes/beaches? it'd be greatly appreciated!
This is mine for example...my residential services aren’t close to it but it’s uneven
hi everyone, where should i put my villager houses?l currently have them all behind the resident servs but looks kinda awful. any help?
@stable quarry maybe the top left? if you’re gonna keep them all in one residential area
good idea!
GUYS I was working on tangy's garden and look who came to sit with me <3
After "completing" my map I finally decided to personalize the surrounding area of each house xD
I'm so proud of my residential area, it's a large road with the houses at every side, it takes a big area of my island, but it's very nice and every villager has their own personalized front yard!
@brittle venture you can he very proud of yourself! Love the natural look!
what I mean by a BIG area is this
WOAHHH. Very neat map too!!
thank you! my island is totally finished, so you can visit it if you want too, i already promoted it in the #dream-addresses🌜
Come visit me too! I'll treat myself to yours once I finish this little area!
AH I ALREADY DID!
It's a huge work of decoration and terraforming, but for my own personal taste, soma areas are too cluttered for me
Hehe its cluttercore after all
OH i didn0't know it existed hahaha well, it's not my taste, but i had to give you props for the amount of work and terrforming, congrats!
You're certainly not speaking of this area hehehehe
No I made it up on the spot hahaahahaha
This aethetic makes me kinda nervious, that's why i personally prefer more open areas, but again, congrats because it's a looooot of work!
I'm very honoured to have been visited by you nonetheless
why by me? lmao
Oh thank you for acknowledging that! Haha I have a bit of massive adhd so it kinda reflects my chaos! Oh because you took the time to carefully lay out your thoughts and you remembered it somehow
:O which is an honour!
hahaha well, i visited a lot if islands the other day and i took time to write down what i liked and how the island was overall so my friends could decide what island to visit
what do you guys think i should at? it feels empty
try to plant some weeds or flowers, and add some designs like sand drawings, or even a rug design
@brittle venture for pride should I turn this into rainbow?
it could be amasing @woven drift !
The flowers I meant!
Yayyyy I'd like to show that little bit of support haha. Thank yo
Well, speaking of rainbow -
May I leave you a message so I remember to visit you later?
AMPS COME IN RAINBOW COLORS TOO. Yellow blue pink and orange?
And the entrance, I have a lot more rainbows going on in my island, because Irisalia means land of the rainbow
If you manage to find space I'd fit in amps!!@ they can be decorated further to include patterns
AMPS COME IN RAINBOW COLORS TOO. Yellow blue pink and orange?
@woven drift No, just white, black, silver, brown, pink and orange
NO BLUE? NO YELLOW? Huhhh
I don't think so - or at least i don't remember it
What a shame
You and flowers is like
amps come in black,white,orange,brown,blue,red,pink
Oh, seal, one of the things that make ne nervous of your island, is that it was on nighttime and i got lost a lot, maybe if it was on daytime or at 5am with the green light, it could improve a lot and be less claustrophobic? But that's my opinion
OHHHH I understand now. Yeah I was experimenting with lighting. I wanted to show off the expensive arse tree lamps I bought. But I'll try it during the day too
Wow i love the colour
Especially that entrance and music band
I can see how this area in the dark would make you get lost
day is more wide in general, so it can give a better look, also, your promo was only daylight hahaha
Especially that entrance and music band
@chrome acorn
Ah you mean me? thank you! I work with colors so I tried to do color codes areas
HAHAHAHAH lmao you're right! It's just that this area looks worse in daylight
I’m going to quickly work on my village and then I’ll send a photo
Without the lights this forest is nothing but scrap :(
I don't have ac atm :c
Without the light this forest is nothing but scrap :(
@woven drift add some flowers or leaves design at the floor, and even weeds to play with textures, it will improve
I actually just did! From May! Who made the leaf patterns:
Look at my most natural forest, I play with the textures
I only recently got into custom patterns
I love the custom patterns
It looks good
i think it needs more texture on the floor, but it looks good
Thank you!
try to ad some dark dirt and then plant some flowers in it
the items like little lights, look better if they're in a small table or a wooden bench
i have a big empty space, what should i do for it?
Idk, what areas do you already have? @cosmic flax
Hmm I was going for botw inspired fairy fountain so the little stools or tables wouldnt really work. I used to have a cemetery though. You mean dirt like this? @brittle venture
yes, dirt like this
nothing, really -
i’m just not sure what to do with it. it’s somewhere at the front, but not really if that makes any sense
an scenario, music festival like?
What kinda theme are you looking for? @cosmic flax
foresty
uhmm maybe a bee hive farm?
or do nothing and just terraform, that what i did in here
@cosmic flax you could pull off 1 or 2 hearts
omg yes that’d be cute
ok, ty both!!!
The small heart will definitely fit. Large heart requires some improvisation
i don't know what you mean @woven drift
@brittle venture regarding?
I just suggested a (double)heart lake! Which can be decorated with trees
the hearts OH you were talking okay okay i now get it sorry
Oh no problem haha
engish is not my 1st language so sometimes i mess it up hahaha
Oh my god your english is fine! It is my 3rd language so I may be in the wrong!
mint too hahhaha
this is what i did for my area here, what do you think?
i’m currently waiting for my yellow mums to grow so i can get those mum cushion thingys
hi, i was wondering if someone would be able to show me their fishing pond area. need some inspo
I’ll send a photo of my village tomorrow because I just ruined all my flowers from a bee attack.
here’s a better picture 🐛🐛
i've completed a small area in front of my resident services!! it isn't the best but it took me a while and i kind of like it qwq (ignore the hamster cage in the back,, i placed it there to make space in my inventory and forgot to take it out when taking the photo-)
oh and i also completed a small island entrance earlier!
I need inspo for close resident services please!
I got an Idea on empty beaches.
Maybe like make a salt farm?
It's gonna be a challenge and still don't have much ideas on what items to put.
@rich ivy if you need ideas for the beach maybe you might like some of these!
@untold junco if you use the top right search bar and type in “in:island-layouts has: image: entrance” you’ll see what others have done! Usually people use a diagonal bridge, cliffs and trees to make the RS seem farther
Hi making my entence but I dont know witch flowers/bushes/items to put on the cliffs need help pls
What's the theme?
Idk I got severals theme ideas for some areas
Hm, I need help with my island layout. I’ve recently basically cleared the entire island to start anew and I have my entrance done, but unsure of where to go from there :’)
@mint osprey what theme do you want you island to have
Hey guys I'm struggling with making new gardens to personalize them to each villager (something I havent done despite 1.1k hours of playing xD) how is Marshall's?
@woven drift like it! I think it fits Marshall's personality.
What to do with my garden??
@azure sparrow I honestly don’t know. You see, my entrance has kind of a blue and white type of theme given the blue crescent moon chairs, flowers and waterfalls, with statues etc
@azure sparrow thank you so much. Here it is from a slightly different angle
Not too flowery for marshal? Maybe thsts somethng he would like after all haha
huh well then you should use water in your design, sneaking in lakes and waterfalls where you can, @mint osprey
and customize your furniture to look blue and white
@azure sparrow Alrighty thx
@mental plank some flowers of multiple colours and types would suit that garden well
Here’s the bottom half, I currently have purple windflowers, white cosmos, and some green mums that I’m waiting to spawn more of
huh
maybe some hyacinths or lilies; even the original colors of those would be good
I know I’m definitely gonna put some bushes around the edges like a sort of fence but I’m torn between purple hydrangea or white azalea
I prefer the looks of the hydrangea even when it isnt flowering
but I love azaleas too
The hydrangea would match but I’m worried it might be too much purple idk
Try to add a bit more of the other colours maybe? It might even out the amount of purple then
if you can get blue hydrangea that would look good too
has any1 pictures of a museum entrance?
@fossil fog here’s my museum entrance! it isnt as grand as others though
not on me, but I have a stone path leading up to the entrance which has some lanterns and flowers
no trees, just a piazza
What's a really nice 2x2 item? Any theme
I'm removing soo many bushes and flowers to make space for more interesting things!
@fossil fog
It's too big to take a whole shot though ;-;
This is to the right
To the left
And further to the left:
Agh I’m stuck 😫 does anybody know of any large structures (such as the wooden bookshelf) that help with forming buildings? I’m building a castle, and none of the wooden bookshelf colors match the grey tones I got going on. I just need it sort of on the end here to even things out
maybe some stalls that are customized to be white?
@elfin zephyr I've seen people use silos and lighthouses
And cliffs with record boxes customized as well as simple panels
@woven drift ty this looks sick
Thanks for the suggestions!! I’ll keep experimenting. Yeah, I love the silos! This is what one half of it currently looks like. As you can see, the way I have it spaced out, there’s just like an awkward gap where the “roof” fencing breaks off and the last simple panel hangs over (if that makes any sense).
@elfin zephyr I'm trying to look now but I don't think anything is really as thick as the bookcase! Jail bars are the same height so maybe you can try those? or lining up some black iron closets if you don't mind using black~ but i'll let you know if I find anything else
I currently have the white bookshelf there and I think it looks fine....if it came in grey, lol. Or even black!
@abstract kelp those are actually great suggestions!! Ooh okay I have a lot of stuff to try
@elfin zephyr If you think black matches with everything else then you can try the antique wardrobe too! It's really bulky but yeah test them out and see how you like it! 
Thanks!! Yeah black is better than nothing, lol, tho grey would be best. I’ll see how the jail bars work out 😱
i'm trying to make my island more fishing friendly (to get fishes that only spawn in rivers/ponds on cliffs) but i currently only have this pond
i just made this river and added a waterfall to start the river mouth but not sure if it looks weird? any feedback will help! and also some bridge recommendations please 🙂
This is my able sisters ! I’m really proud of it
@charred grove is there a canal upstream from the waterfall?
If so, not weird at all. I guess water needs to come from somewhere (wide enough) to generate the water that comes falling down
there's no canal
it kinda starts just on the edge of that cliff up there with the tree, then downstream and down another cliff @woven drift
Hey can anyone show me their able sisters outdoor area? I have like a 4x5 area right next to the store I wanna do like an outdoor display with but I'm not creative
Hmmm well I think it looks fine either way! @charred grove you are definitely ready to start decorating the areas! Maybe stone bridge? I use only zen and some stone ones. Stone may work everywhere!
@hallow void this is what I have but I'll be doing a huge makeover soon! Nearby I have a flower store
The first pic is directly below able's and it's from the days when I just planted flowers wherever I didnt know what to do yet
Oooh that's cute. I do have a huge flower field in front of my ables
4x5 should be big enough to place some stalls/flower market stuff!
Does anyone have picture of their or any diagonal bridges? I really want to put one on my island but I don't have an ideas for where I can put it
@woven drift thank you! i'm going for the wood ones but still deciding between suspension or wooden bridge 
Here are some diagonal bridges @woven drift
@woven drift there's plenty of diagonal bridge pictures if you search in: island-layouts has: image diagonal bridge
Good morning everyone! Sorry i slept in a little bit i was very tired from working hard last night
Oh shoot!!! Nice tysm! @charred grove 👏 👏
@woven drift no problem! that function helped me a lot 🙂
Guys what do you usually do at the back of the cliff? I built my nook and ables on a cliff near my residence and I’m not sure what to do at the back of it coz it can’t be fully seen in screen or atleast for me 🤔🤔
my little area for grizzly! any advice?
Pretty good already honestly. I don't know how much you like clutter, but there could be more added. Maybe something by that pond on the right, and something next to that bush at the back
i’d love to add more to it, i’m going for a natural theme and i feel like i keep kinda just reusing the same items so i ran out of ideas
@granite lagoon add some leaf piles between the circles! and some random custom designs (leaves, flowers, sparkles etc.)
also more trees i think
leaf piles would be cute! i’d love to add more trees but the area is pretty limited, i’ll see if i can squeeze some in tho! thanks everyone (:
Do you like it?
@dull nacelle yes!
@dull nacelle it's pretty
if the bamboo wasnt there i think it wouldnt have worked
Tnks 
np 
ok I think I’ve fixed the border over here but how do I extend the plaza down to the beach without it looking weird
(some more context of the entire area)
anyone have any ideas for like a fish shop?
@gloomy atlas maybe put a arch!
Put fish figures and some fishing rods
where would I put it tho
The plaza is the one with wooden floor? Then why do you have the lighter floor instead?
@soft holly
Ooo
my plaza has a brick floor
If you want to extend it, you can get a nice wooden floor pattern or just come log fences and do a small entrance to the beach
Oh shoot I thought it was wood hahahaha
@gloomy atlas in between the light polls? I’m not sure if it would fit though. Just an idea!
Then the same, get some brick patterns with transparency and make it go to the beach by making an entrance
ahh
And a tip, make the entrance be the large part between the lamps, it's more natural this way
Just add some log fences or wood sticks near that place and put some decoration
when I walk on the brick pattern, will it play the sound effects for when I’m walking on a hard surface
No, it will play the design pattern sound
what’s that sound like
Just try it yourself I mean, put some pattern in the floor and walk hahaha
If you think I should do city theme hit🖤If cottage core hit🤍
Love it💕💕💕💕!!!
love it soo muchO_O
💕_💕
If you think I should do city theme hit🖤If cottage core hit🤍
@daring hatch
Why not a city theme with some cottage areas?? The mix of Cory and nature has worked pretty well in my island
Like, the villager houses with a cottage touch and then forests with huge cottage aesthetic, but in the residence service area and ships, be like a city look
This is what I have so far for my city area☺️
Would cottagecore look good for this type of city theme
Yes sure
@daring hatch yes definitely! I like what @brittle venture said about doing cottagecore in the foresty parts 🙂
A nice touch of city look and the cottage areas is always great and dynamic. For me, sometimes islands with cottage core all the time or city as esthetics all the time are kinda boring
Good islands have a nice balance between nature and city/town
Ok tysm I’m going have to add some cottage core areas!☺️☺️
Nice! Just be sure to make a nice transition between these areas, so is not like two separated islands
Yay!! Let us know if you need any help on anything. I’m excited to see how your island turns out!!
Also, think about doing an entrance, sometimes it adds more personality rather than coming into the island and directly being at the shopping area
Take a look at some islands in the #dream-addresses🌜 chat, some of them have great looks and entrances. Let me share with you the best islands I visited recently that can help you take inspiration
If I were gonna do an entrance I would want flowers in the beginning I just don’t know where else to put my shops
Near the residence service? All the shops and things at the same place?
They don't have to be spred out if you're looking for a city look
If you want inspirarion, here you have my island, and even more islands for you to take inspiration. The tip left picture is my entrance, if you go right, you go to the residence services and shops
Nice islands so you can get inspiration:
Does anyone have like stone paths that kinda match the one that you get when kk come to you island I just need the code
I think they can have an aesthetic that you're looking for, except maybe Malapascua, but that island have a very cool wntrance
Tysm for helping me
Ah, you mean the terraforming path? Well youll have to beat the game if you want the terraforming options
@daring hatch for path/design codes, please ask in #custom-design-help🎨 🙂
Believe me, it will be euxhausting to fill an entire zone for just change them in a future, you don't need a finished island nowts a whole process
@brittle venture yep... thats why 2/3 of my island is flat lol
I live in the sou hen hemisphere is there any simple cute rustic cottage core simple things to do for my interns s instead of teriforming my island
Finally got done with the fountain area of my island, might tweak it a little later!
this is my fairy area, near where genji lives! my island is very cottagecore mushroom themed, uses a lot of "the path" designs and has a lot of bug models about, any suggestions on what else i can put around here? only thing i can think of so far is a painting area for genji
to start, some cedar tres
Looking for any ideas for a small outdoor art gallery? Or how to display art outside.
@cold dust i have an art/library area
whoa
@cold dust I kept my little art display area simple
As of last night my paws hard at work and still is! The whole island is almost clear now, i gotta do a bit more terra forming, flower cleaning, and demolishing bridges and inclines
nice
@cold dust I kept my little art display area simple
@vernal oxide have you tried using wedding fence? those look nice too lol
@gentle acorn I did. It covered it up a lot lol
ah... i wasnt sure how itll look tbh. i have the diy, but never got to use it to see them in person
@vernal oxide as in, it made it look more narrow? They still look fancier though
@gentle acorn @woven drift i meant to say covered lol but yeah I didn’t like how it looked. I feel like with the rope fencing it gives it a more museum-ish feel. Where it’s like look but don’t touch
Has anyone seen an island who set up their villager area in a circular pattern? Wanna try to do that but the logistics of moving the homes seems difficult (and expensive lol)
@vernal oxide I got cha
It definitely looks like "dont touch these fancy arse genuine art pieces or else!"
@prisma gyro I did on my old switch as like a testing sort of thing. I planned them out with dirt pathing. I tried to make one to two spaces between each house
Ah, that seems like a good strategy, yeah
Pshh envy can I has your unbiased opinion on a new area of mine, my first attempt at a themed garden for a villager? @vernal oxide
Using dirt to plan 4x4 is much cheaper than going full in. @prisma gyro
@woven drift sure. Let’s see it
@vernal oxide it's a very small area okay but it is Marshall's
@vernal oxide True. That way the homes only have to be moved one at a time
@woven drift I think it looks good. Your use of white items really goes with his house
YAY! hah I'm currently pushing and locking marshal in to take a group pic utgh. Thanks!
I feel so pressured to make my island amazing by all these cool pictures, I just gotta be happy with my 4 stars
What could look nice in this small area
I feel so pressured to make my island amazing by all these cool pictures, I just gotta be happy with my 4 stars
@astral rock its k. my island is 4 stars as well 🙂
@astral rock 4 star island buddies! 😄
ayyyyyy
mine is also 4 stars! isabelle's rating system is 👎
Yeah it really is trash
Guys since when is it so hip to have 4 stars now I wanna nuke my island and have 4 stars too. It seems very rebellious. Then again I know how some people have 5 stars by spamming their beaches lmao
4 star gang is better than 5 star gang 😎😎😎
Okay i came up to a lil stump.... To make my four theme areas, do i make a 3 wide river or a 4 wide?
Welp I'm cluttercore gang I cant help it
Mine is 4 stars as well
i mean, it wasnt intentional to be 4 stars haha. i went down a rank because i have too many trees but i dont want to take any trees away so i've settled for 4 stars.
Wait is that the real fli
Guys I'm trying so hard to get Marshal to fricking sit
woahh head staff here
hi fli
Ofc, fli spends so much time being such a busy mod where does he find the time to get 5 stars
IM SO MAD AT MARSHAL ONE MORE VIOLATION AND IM BOOTING HIM
So whats your opinion? A 3 wide river or a 4 wide?
@brave storm can you post a picture of the area/map?
Uh I'll need a ppicture @brave storm
So whats your opinion? A 3 wide river or a 4 wide?
@brave storm 3
I am the Real Fli! Hi!
@gentle acorn how can you say that without seeing the pic lmao
@prisma gyro this isn’t mine. But someone shared this before and I tried to kind of go off of this picture when planning their house placements. Just make sure to make all the 4x4 dirt pathing for all 10 villager houses before moving them.
I'll send some pics of my island in a bit!
GO WORK ON YOUR GOD DAMN TERRAFORMING NOW ;-;
I'm still working on demolishing areas it will take me a few days
i am tho :<
Thanks @vernal oxide !!
@hearty pebble wanna visit me sometime? Let's make it depend on if you like my island map? >:(
The non-updated but still finished map @hearty pebble
can I visit soon?
Yes please?
I think I'll stay with a 4 wide river
Tried to scroll up to Jun’s map layout to see if they showed the DA by accident but nope
looks great!
Bruh some of yalls maps look absolutely wild and i love it 😩💖
Via DA surely. If you wanted a personal tour I'm working on an area right now but there is a video of me embarrassing myself constantly while I try so hard to give a tour. https://youtu.be/F_dz_RG_RDg
In which I do NOTHING right, but hey who does? DA-2581-9078-0321
@icy flint I've been to his island 3 times? Hes making a big scene out of it but his island is nice
@woven drift omg I just realized both of our maps have the same river mouth exit lol
my entrance! anything to add?? ^^
Suggest maybe some green leaf piles, or a nova clock by the cliffs to match the white imo
@paper turtle I think a couple shrubs would definitely add to the area!
@paper turtle Tree's bounty lamps they look like this (on top of stone stools)
I agree! Thank you all!
@icy flint ooh that's exciting!
@gentle acorn absoheckinglutely not
perspective is tiring
YOU SHOULD FEEL BAD for the positioning of your pagoda
not done yet. perspective landscaping takes time
You FORCED it to be that way. It doesnt have to be on a floating isle thing. You ca n do it justice but not like this. 0/10 I suggest you retry
No jun you cannot rest
Why are you talking in here hm?
Depth and perspective is a common excuse used by those who wanna be lazy. Continue and perfect it already ez
Gonzo’s yard so far! Any ideas to improve it, or some furniture I could use? 🙂
@woven drift oh excuse me I'll go flame and bash on june in private like I always do maybe
Lol
@gentle acorn GET READY
Oh no.
@arctic nimbus that is a lovely yard! Maybe flowers?
Oh i didn't see the flower nevermind!
@arctic nimbus maybe a kettle bath tub thing? What is it called. Looks like a cauldron xD or otherwise something camping related that he could use to cook stuff
@arctic nimbus put your best ingredients in this tub yeah
ooh interesting idea
@woven drift that diy would be great in a theme area i am thinking of!
YAY. Show us? @brave storm when you're ready, that is
also @brave storm i think ill add a few more flowers along the outside surrounding his yard, as the area around is pretty empty lol
@woven drift oh umm. I was talking on here how to do my island last night... The thing is, it's not close to be done... I gotta demolish and move houses
Anyone else build like a sort of plaza extension from their resident services? I want a big open area for villagers to waltz around but i think i need to move the whole fountain area up closer to Resident Services.
Really, anyone have some plaza/centerpiece/fountain ideas to share?
I live in the sou hen hemisphere is there any simple cute rustic cottage core simple things to do for my interns s instead of teriforming my island
@daring hatch just keep progressing at the game, you'll be able to decorate a lot once you have the terraforming option
Hi or then I find a waiter or they give me villagers
Anyone else build like a sort of plaza extension from their resident services? I want a big open area for villagers to waltz around but i think i need to move the whole fountain area up closer to Resident Services.
Really, anyone have some plaza/centerpiece/fountain ideas to share?
@vagrant cosmos I do!

@vagrant cosmos that looks really nice. Maybe adding some flower beds would make it even cooler. Like a halfway version of your entrance and mine would be fabulous
As i am speaking, i am relocating all my flowers to one big spot near my entrance area for all of the rivers
These are gorgeous!!!! I definitely want to start putting in flowers, but i mean im aiming for something like that kind of blends with RS plaza
I also have an area with a japanese kind of fountain. Not my entrance but my favorite area @vagrant cosmos
Thank you both though, love these
Ooooh i LOVE, I visited your dream island for inspiration recently
These are gorgeous!!!! I definitely want to start putting in flowers, but i mean im aiming for something like that kind of blends with RS plaza
@vagrant cosmos @vernal oxide has a concert-ish area that blends really well with the RS! Lemme see if I can find a pic
Not me right? You mean @brittle venture @vagrant cosmos
I somehow remember my DA as being a disaster but thars because I'm now doing a huge makeover and everything is a huge wreck sigh
@vagrant cosmos
@plain forge THIS IS IT
Mockingjae has a lovely island. Even if I have every theme I dont have country/cottage core YET but I will eventually!
I'm working on it rn
@woven drift ahah thank you. My island is city themed with a hint of nature
@woven drift Giiiirl! You island looks AMAZING! 
And @vernal oxide and @storm bluff has a beautiful island too, very natural and something I aspire to make some areas look like
@plain forge its pretty amazing how you made the city theme look very natural and like a place I'd want to live in
Tearing my island down tho~ so it's a big mess except my RS area. The DA hasn't been updated so people can still visit :>
And @scenic blaze @storm bluff and @plain forge are currently my favorite islands rn
:<
@plain forge omg me too. Same same I'm now making personalized gardens for each villager. 2 of my DA villagers arent even there right now
Sorry jun you gotta work harder and longer if you want me to praise you too
IVE ALWAYS praised @gentle acorn btw. You jsut use it as an excuse to not work harder
I'm so mad whenever you claim you havent worked on it for 6 days or sth ijrjrrksksmsms you're so much better than I am and you always mock my terraforming designs on your own island and I'm like
If you can god damn copy sth off me why not finish your island???
im waiting til november rolls around to get mush stuff
Just so you guys know @gentle acorn always takes a small area of my island and uses a spare area of his island to show me how he would do it. Regardless of his opinion. I've given him mush lamps so that's a lame excuse too
@woven drift I'm working to move out a lot of my villagers now for the new theme ~ goodbye Raymond and Dom 
@woven drift @plain forge @brittle venture thank you all this community is so great. Im definitely stealing ideas from @vernal oxide
Steal Like An Artist and whatnot
@vagrant cosmos taking inspo is perfectly fine, but remember that stealing/plagiarism isn't~ 
I love Dom so much. He's my starter so I've had him for months now but it's time for a change
I'll be crying the whole time I give him away
I'm gonna be kicking bob for maple/lolly Bob's house is just nooo
@gentle acorn you butchered this I cant even tell what the inspo was lmfao
uuuh excuse me? fairy garden? hello?
UH BUT LOOK GUYS IT LOOKS NOTHING LIKE MY FAIRY FOREST
hmmm... youre right. i need more mush stuff
I need some campsite inspo
Lmfao what happened it used tto look like my forest. No no it's not an item issue it's a terraforming issue wtf
You need wya more area /cliffs and water @gentle acorn are you kidding me
i like smol things
@valid gate wanna see my ugly grandiose campsite?
Of course i do @woven drift
Well idk if @gentle acorn actually liked it but it is not a natural campsite it's just a decorative one
@valid gate Here's a photo of my campsite 🙂 Hope it helps.
If you're looking for a natural one maybe someone like @storm bluff has a better one
it's so colorful!! i have kind of a natural campsite but i'm thinking about trying something more stylized
@bleak wind how did you get a reddish market flag
@valid gate my campsite is on the beach if that helps?
@storm bluff goals
@woven drift It's from pocket camp. I have a few spare...hint hint
that's a great idea!
But mine are fully yellow and not nearly as reddish? Are there several colors? I've seen blue white on reddit
Is it some filter?
it's so colorful!! i have kind of a natural campsite but i'm thinking about trying something more stylized
@valid gate give like, 3-4 spaces in front and have it by a beach in bot left/right corner. put terraforming behind it and make waterfall, and surround that lil corner with water. put couple coconut trees by the front and add campfire, wood stools, etc with a radio and stuff. by the capsite, add barrels, lamps, turtles, etc. connect your campsite with a bridge
The person who posts the blue ones says in her posts that they’re edited
@woven drift I guess I just have the yellow and red ones then, idk 🤷🏻♀️
I need some campsite inspo
@valid gate my campsite is really big, and it's connected to the Hollywood sign haha
@plain forge I love this did you make the signs???
make your hollywood sign with perspective landscaping @plain forge
thatd look super nice
This is the most natural looking holly wood stuff I've seen and I'm not from the us haha
Is perfect for campsite
@woven drift I assumed red and yellow was the default colour tbh lol
I really like the idea of something like this!! Credit to magicalcrossing on instagram (if pinterest is correct)
Ohhh @bleak wind I just checked and we have the same. The others photoshopped it
@plain forge can I DM you a question?
@woven drift yeah I made it! @gentle acorn I'm tearing the area down so there won't even be a sign anymore haha
@woven drift Silly fool 😂
@azure sparrow ofc :>
I just notice southern river mouth is either straight or curved , wish mine was curved it looks better , imo
I just captured my campsite at golden hour I think??? It may not be natural but I like ut
The campsite is right next to a cemetery so that's not very cheerful I know
Bridge vote please 
@charred grove number 2
is it okay if my opinion is a biased one?
my island only has the second bridge because it just looks good to me lol
thoughts on this darker path? i think it’ll look so good when autum starts, i previously had the original one which i love but it’s looks a little dry? idk lmk
@@gentle acorn everyone's opinion is biased . I only like zen and stone bridges. And onlt stone inclines
@charred grove definitely the second bridge, if you’re going for a more natural approach to your island
@raven granite looks good!
i try to have my opinions unbiased one when someone is asking for an opinion
@gentle acorn but opinions are always subjective >:( shhh just gib opinions or work on ur island
Thrieididjdiisowowkwks @j000000n
I think they mean they generally prefer a certain bridge , but in this case they think the other one suits better
I hate pink and I'll never be positive about any island that is mostly pink but okayb
@woven drift the more i look at it the more i like it, i mean it’ll look gorgeous once fall starts and everything changes
Then answer the question and say that you actuslly prefer your own choice of bridge @thin folio
No need to ask for peoples permission to give an opinion is what I'm saying!

any of you guys have farm areas? i have a fruit tree section of my farm and a duck pond so far on mine
you pinged the wrong user @woven drift
love you too seal baby, have a good sunday :)
can i see someone's perspective landscaping? i have mine, but it looks okayyy
YOU TOO, let's cuddle @thin folio
@gentle acorn to be reallt fair unless you take your pics like according to how forced perspective pics are taken I dont see how it is perspective landscaping. Show it again
Or I just dont see how off centering the pagoda is in any way related to perspective landscaping
Yeah I dont see it really
It looks okay in its own right.
So i am back from half an hour ago at least and i am almost done relocating flowers and then i gotta do my trees
But nothing perspective related .... @gentle acorn
i think this type of landscaping is pretty challenging
im going to see if i can do it
Not sure where to ask this so I'll ask here, does it matter what time you upload dreams? Like if I upload at night will it be perpetually night in the dream?
Yes @ornate rover I chose to upload mine at 11 pm because I like glow inthe dark stuff and it gave everyone and their dog claustrophobia sigh
@ornate rover Yes, it will be perpetually night time until you update the dream the next day
So my next update will be at 12 pm damn it
Aww okay, will upload it tomorrow then haha. Thanks :)
((((Or tt but let's not discuss that)))))
I often upload mine just as the sun is setting because it gives my island a gorgeous glow 😄
@bleak wind Fan of the mythical golden hour I see. I like my island best at noon :)
WIP exterior of my house 🥰
@ornate rover I confess, I am quite the fan XD
@west olive beautiful, i love any fancier theme with statues outside and lots of white!
@fiery geyser sameeee. 70% of my island will be white 😂
@gentle acorn do your water like this on the cliff
Make it go past your pagoda! >;( No such thing as a tiny pond generating that waterfall
gotta move it foward, but idk
Move the entire cliff forward yes
You can move your 2nd pagoda on the right backwards but you can only moge your left pagoda towards
and whats weird about terraforming in ac is you cant put real life physics/perspective to it. or it looks weird
sometimes
I disagree I think it looks way weirder how your super tiny pond on the cliff generates so mcuh water downstream?
How can it start from where you started it?
i have to change my entire island if that were the case
You dont have to of course
Just make this area bigger. Invest dome space into the areas you feel ambitious about
Do you know how much space this took?
i think ac physics/perspective is hard to work with. and i like my island smol lol
@woven drift i think it’s fine, a lot of people have tiny waterfalls on their islands generating rivers and stuff. it’s just aesthetic, doesn’t have to be realistic about how much water it would produce
Yes but he is asking for our feedback and that is mine
I didnt mean to bash anyone sorry
3 tier landscaping is by far the hardest.
It took me a long time to put books and stuff outside lol
But hes my friend and I'm always 10000% honest with him hahahab
it requires sooo much room
He doesnt have to do things in a realistic manner. But he wants to I think
@woven drift you’re good lol, didn’t think you were bashing anyone just offering a different point of view too
Or why discuss "perspective". To me perspective is rooted in perception of some sort of reality haha
@fiery geyser oh thank you I really didnt mean to harm anyone :D
i like constructive criticisms. but for the sake of the community, i think its best to dm me instead of writing it. some may see it hostile and i wont be okay with that
Okay okay I shall
Make sure to bash you in private my friend <3 @gentle acorn you are so good compared to many so im very strict with you
I understand that doesnt work with everyone haha. I also dont write the same things I write to you to others; difference in experience eh
Able sisters area, anything to add>
potted plants on either entrance
ok thx
@azure sparrowPotted plants in either side of the door maybe?
i like the idea of adding a little sign post with a custom design that says “SALE” in front of one of the shops
ok
how do yall decorate your museum ughh i want it to be grand
@gentle acorn oi what did you come up withb
@coarse drift not to brag but I think I have one of the largest museums here wanna see it
yess sure gimme ideas
The museum is the favorite part of my island. You're very welcome
And if you want to customize it to your own theme I can help!
@plain forge thank you queen 🥺 (I’m at work all day lol) @vagrant cosmos if you want I can dm you my DA and you can visit!
Anybody know a amazing city like layout?
how do yall decorate your museum ughh i want it to be grand
@coarse drift mmk you want something grand?
put 3 spaces behind museum and terraform up behind it. then add 6 piece fossil behind it and then make that raised terraform go around the museum and make waterfall. then make 2 rows of gold roses and add fence. the waterfall goes down and goes behind your roses down in a straight line. then add a fountain in the middle with 2 of every flower mirroring it. then add sculptures, lights, benches around it.
Wow jun that sounds amazing
I would love to see any city/market areas - especially areas that have a more veritcal orientation
niceee omg ♥️♥️💕 tysm!
@gentle acorn I mean must you use fossils? I used to have huge fossils but I just feel like it is overused at this point!
itll take a huuuge spot. but if you want something grand, be bold!
I had the deer one
@gentle acorn I mean must you use fossils? I used to have huge fossils but I just feel like it is overused at this point!
@woven drift yeah tbh... because itll be just a deadspace. nothing shows behind a museum
and you wont be able to see it unless you look for it
Took sooo much space for what it is worth. Ah yeah but you can make the space behind the museum be walkable
Like accessible. A little path that connects to the other parts of your island?
I wish we could get more inclines and bridges... I could use maybe 10 inclines versus the 8 they allow us to have
If you're gonna go all out place your fossils more in front!
Omg jun is my dearest friend here why am I always disagreeing with him. I hate me >:(
How many inclines can we have? And how many bridges can we have?
That's not bad
I already used 4 inclines to make my museum entrance look fancy
How do I send videos here?
so like, something like this.
@coarse drift the second part of this video shows my museum! It’s decorated a bit different since this video but the layout is still the same!
I took a video of my museum for @coarse drift
@gentle acorn
im just gonna use 2 inclines for my museum
@ornate rover I took a video off my switch, sent it to either fb or twitter and then screen record with my iPhone. And then crop it and trim it
I used 2 too!! @coarse drift
For anything grand I recommend using at least 1-2 for the museum
For videos, I just have a second Twitter account that I send all my screenshots/videos to and link the upload tweet
@coarse drift Here is part of the area around my museum 🙂 WIP
holy crap that is suuper grand!! it looks great 😍😍 @vernal oxide
Did it!!
@coarse drift thank you!! The museum and my entrance were the only places I kept when I tore down my whole island to redo it 💀
A little janky but hope it gives you some inspiration. The front bit is like a museum garden reception party area @coarse drift
My museum isn't 100% done but I like where it's at for now
tysm for everyones ideas omfg 💕 now i realised i need to have a much larger space ffs its gonna take me hours lol
i just finished doing my living room, how does it look (stalls are there to store my wood so my storage/pockets can be full more)?
@woven drift house interiors should be posted in #happy-home-designs!
oh! sorry! (im sorry I forgot)
My Late Night Library off to the side of my museum... which might also need edited to fill the space better
@coarse drift can I share a video of my museum?
of course !! we’d all love to see it
I made a concert area for the cutie bubblegum sisters! Hope that one they I can actually catch them sing here LOL
- i need inspos lol!
That's so cute Peanut!
I love the different creative solutions people come up with... although I wish the framerate didn't lag so much the more you put down
Very bad timing and weather but I tried I tried to capture my museum entrance which I cant do via pics. Ignore how it fails to align lmao @coarse drift
Wow Seal it's lovely!
Thank you!!!
tysm for the effort 😂😂♥️
;___; yeah I did not really know how to upload it here sorry
I feel like I have no idea what I'm doing the moment I see someone else's island lol
Museum entrance are so hard to design! Mine is still empty. It looks great
Well I had 1.1k hours if not more to get a feel for it @prisma gyro
I really like the bushes around the museum building. I may steal that idea 👀
It's not stealing it is very much a feature of the game!! @prisma gyro go for it
after 3 days of trial and error I finished this 😀
Haha I know. Most of my island is tweaked from other peoples' ideas and then tweaked for myself
Wow I didnt know you could make the whole house be blue that's so lovely
Blue paradise
@tidal wyvern it looks great!
I didnt know the house can be entirely blue either hahahha
Blue andpurple are my favorite colours so I love this sooo much
It's very blue, blue!
my islands name is “blue” anyways
Gotta love the mush lamp
What the heck I want a 3rd house so I may steal this ahhaha and I've never really stolen something except for @storm bluff 's leaves with her permission
My island's color scheme is pink, white, and gold. Although my library is very much not following that color scheme (yet haha)
he's blue dabadeebadadow
for me it’s blue and white, but mostly blue because some of my villagers and their houses are blue and white 😀
I recently realized I purged every yellow flower from my island and I have to borrow flowers from friends to make some DIYs lol
I don’t want flowers on my island, I’m too afraid for them to multiply when I’m not looking
True - I had an entire platform covered in white mums for a while
it helps to put markings or paths on the ground around them to keep them contained
I’ve posted this before, but thought I’d post again (for advice)! The area behind this is a based on kikis delivery service’s city which is full of black street lamps... should I replacemy white ones with black ones?
I like the white ones, but I think it's up to how you feel. Very nice use of those columns, and I like the overall turquoise feel
Oh thank you so much! Yeah I was wondering if it would make the areas more tied together? And haha those were a lot of snowflakes :’) I’m glad it was worth it 🥰
I can’t explain how much I want to steal that but it wouldn’t fit my scheme 👁️
I need to get better are being creative with the panels. Everyone is using them so impressively
fr I only have one panel
Aww I’m super flattered haha! My island is covered in panels so the lag is insane
Hey guys! Going through a hard time and decorating my island as a distraction! Would it be okay to share pictures of it?
omg the lag sometimes is crazy
baloo I have a switch lite and I thought i was the only one lagging on it when I’m at very detailed islands
@eternal stream you better share pictures or else!
Hehe, okay! :)
@woven drift I’m too broke for that anyways
@tidal wyvern Omg it’s crazy on the switch too, I’m pretty sure for this whole section (behind too) I’ve used like minimum a 100 panels so when they lag and pop into existence I get sad :’)
my islands completely flat because I have no creativity, and it’s to prevent lag as well
I don’t make spots like those for my villagers 😀
I dont usually either but I had loads of space lol :)
daisies you have a grey lite and you can’t say otherwise
@tidal wyvern hey I have no care for texture because my paths are missing and I only really use cliffs for illusions :’) maybe I’ll add some more natural studio ghibli sections
Your island is looking very cozy Daisies
Daisies indeed has a grey lite and cannot say otherwise> daisies you have a grey lite and you can’t say otherwise
Woah I effed up that lol
@eternal stream I like how simple and naturey that is ♥️
Awwwh thank youuu :))) @rich tree
@slender vapor omg that’s gorgeous
The wedding set is soooo beautiful!
yea
Has anyone turned their museums into a dump? I’m sick and tired of its dimensions and had to tear down my old one that I put a lot of effort into 😡 so now I want to turn it into an abandoned wasteland 😅
I never even made a spot for mine lol
I skipped the whole wedding event... Gonna have to go back and TT to June sometime
@tidal wyvern Lol that’s alright I despise the museum so I wish I could delete it off my island 🙃
I only TT’ed to June for the wedding tuxedo and shoes
Need tips to fill this little space 🥺
Seafood restaurant/cafe. Because that's what I am currently working on :p
@brisk perch maybe removing the path and placing trees down with a picnic blanket? or if you wanna keep the path then maybe add some garden benches with some other furniture for a neighborhood hang out area
Any suggestions
@icy flint I’ll totally would try that right now thanks! 🥰
@brisk perch np glad to help! and @woven drift maybe since the space is close to your orchard try to give it some stalls or place some cardboard boxes to make it seem like your packing them to sell if that makes sense
I’m actually trying to redo everything on the right
@woven drift small market place? Like a farmer’s market?
@brisk perch make a cuter flower market than I have
Make it smaller than mine but cuter. Go!
Ok thanks for the suggestion y’all
@woven drift that’s crazy good! 🥺
No it's just me spamming all the items
But it's a beginning!
I actually made a flower market too 😂 but I was like where did I found it from cause I was really sleepy that day
seal i swear ima go to your island and steal everything
Your flower market looks amazing
Go ahead I dare you @icy flint I'm very okay with that
👉🏼👈🏼 we should all have a hang out omg
I barely started actually decorating mine ‘=v=
I have immensely bad adhd so I make super cluttered stuff if anyone can actually copy something or be inspired by it I'm super happy
So tell me a theme (I got almost all themes) and I'll post it
No it actually look really nice
Doesnt make it lag any less apparently lmao. I'm immune to it haha
I ended up finishing Gonzo’s yard! It’s my first complete yard I’ve made and I’m pretty proud of it:’)
I got a good entrance, park, zen rock garden, pirate cove, fairy forest just ask!
@arctic nimbus omg yes the log set 🥰
I’m actually trying to urbanize most of my right island since it’s feels really rural there
What is not good is villager's gardens but I'm working on tharn
Does anyone here got a autumn island that could post some photos? i need inspiration for mine 😄
"clustercore" is becoming more and more used now lol prob becuz of seal
Here my park I was thinking maybe a arch
@woven drift I actually like it without an arch!
@woven drift this small shrine?
Thanks
OoO I like that
@icy flint hahahaha I doubt it
I made this small embarrassing shrine mostly because I love the mushroom items. It's not realistic or that cool but I love it
can't wait for November for the mush items feel like my ruins island will be more nicer
Honestly I felt you put a lot of stuff together but you really know how to make it look good, like if I don’t look at the detail u really can’t tell everything all together
@woven drift tysm it looks so pretty omg!! now its time to get some acorns and pine cones lol
Thank you @woven drift it means a lot because the fall items are some of my faves.
dont wanna say its a cluster but i feel like adding more of different things around or the same thing can go a long way imo
My favorite are the bamboo and blossom items
Thats my theme so I’m trying not to add anything in the fall season since it would not fit
Oh I love bamboo too @woven drift
@scenic blaze kept posting pics with her bamboo trees and next thing i know i have more bamboo trees than any tree lmao
Wow that look nice
the bamboo partition is amazing tbh
i love using bamboo in regular forested areas
Same
@scenic blaze I still love mothra's artisanal bug cage area
That was you right, mothra????
I will check ur island out after I get home. I really like your designs
@scenic blaze haven't finished my other forest area but adding more bamboo trees and adding small 1x1 items are a game changer imo
To me it is mothra's most exciting area other than the most recent green bed custom pattern area
Everyone knows how long THAT area took because the moment I saw the bed cover pattern I wanted to know if it wws an in game item omfg
@icy flint it looks so good!! the bamboo really adds something, i agree
@woven drift also when i can get the mushroom diy ima change the stone table to a mushroom table
i use the bug cages a lot, do you mean my big market?
Hmmm the place with the termite nest
Any ideas for this tiny area by the park? I was thinking a small seating area but I don't want to keep using log / natural garden furniture
ohh mothra wanna see my mid progress redds marketplace?
I'm hopefully not confusing you with may because you two are one of the 3 people whose island I've visited via dream world hahahah
ohh well here it is anyways i added a path underneath just didn't take a pic of it yet fully finished @scenic blaze
I'm always doing a huge makeover on my island so I dont have that much time to check everyone's island ;-; and I get lost all the time unless I'm given a tour
Okay so i am back
@woven drift recommend dream islands it saves time
ooo nyack it's coming together!! i like those shingles a lot
well seal you aren't that busy when you're coming to my island for that flower resupply haha
I have visited exactly 3 dream islands @woven drift hahahaha
HAHAHAH NYACK I COULDNT HELP IT OMG SHHH I RAN OUT OK @icy flint
@noble vigil Perhaps a playground?
Like the kind of island you have probably would get like 10 people visiting in a hour 😂😂
Here is my island. The easy parts are done. The worst part of this is doing the rivers
wip of my market street/museum area
im sadly coming to a realization that i might need to redo my zen garden for kabuki since i wanna get more custom slot spaces for a swamp area
I'm so surprised that I have 470 visitors to my dream island I never expected that
“Pretend to be shocked”
Why dont all these people just dm me ;___;
I never opened up my dream island yet
Just saying ur island too good 
@woven drift different time zone?
if i was seals one out of 3 dream island visits then i might have one person then haha
@bitter inlet this is so cute! i love the touches of pink with the cherry blossom stuff. really great eye for color
nope seal did not visit my island smh
I'll try to reach 10 by the time I go to bed. I'm very picky haha
Those little rivers must have taken ages!
ty :> @scenic blaze
quick question for the people who didn’t put their villagers in a “neighborhood” type thing do y’all have like a lot of other types of areas or am i just dumb. bc giving them each their own yard is taking a l o t of space and i don’t think i’ll have room for my other ideas
feel like my island is lacking rivers lmao
@woven drift Btw how can u tell how many visited ur island
I got the game on my birthday so I missed the chance to get the cherry blossom recipes
Mine has 0 rivers
Mines alway lacking with rivers
rivers take up space for building so
@cursive smelt i spread all of mine out from my map pic layout and give them a decent amount of space and sometimes i have enough space and sometimes i need more space but i feel like it depends on what you have on your island already
still in the worlds of adding rivers
It depend how u wanna do it tbh
@night fjord I am about to begin building my rivers to split up the 4 areas
if i even have enough room
If u do Cottage Core river will make your island really nice
@woven drift check your passport via nintendo app
@woven drift also to check how many people came to your island through a dream you have to go to the nintendo switch app on your phone and then go to animal crossing and then passport
It 's cottage core, fairy core and also kind of natural...yeah the terraforming progress was really hard and took ages.. especialy because my island was flat @delicate star @woven drift
@woven drift
I never shared my island so I’m not sure but let me check out 😂
@cursive smelt you can make areas that’s connected with their house. Like if you want a library and a villager likes reading, you could make it their library.
Oh this is only via the dream address! Sorry.
Also my name is baby seal its seal baby currently lmao
Alright! Back to normal
Anyway I've demolished huge neighborhoods surrounding my villager's houses what you see on my island is not nearly representative of how good it is now >:( mandatory disclaimer
Gimme like 1 day to make it right ;-;
I switcheroo'd everyone's house omg
only nice part of my island
Just 4 😂😂 @woven drift
I not done with my island so I’m really not sharing it
That's ok we all know @gentle acorn who censors his nice island
My island is SO far from done and I have like 1000 hours in this game lol
Ok only 600 I guess, but still... I should have an actual island at this point
I only really started putting effort into it now that dream codes are a thing
I'm trying to think how i am doing my rivers
It’s alway best to make your island layout before starting anything
I have 1.1k hours like you @prisma gyro but I spent most of it on my map which I've changed a lot of today but it wont show when you visit me cause I'm not comfy with sharing yet ;__;
This current map is different from the Dream Address for a good reason!1
That's ok we all know @gentle acorn who censors his nice island
@woven drift woah there :<
I barely have 200-300 hours on my island 😳
I guess I have a long way to go
It's TRUE though. @gentle acorn you're less confident than I am even
240 hours: f l a t
They take too long for us to flat the map @tidal wyvern
It take me 100 hours to do it
I've never even flattened my map before
yes this is what I call no 👁motivation👁
Why would you remove all your progress?? Just clear out one area at a time
The only issue I had in the beginning is the flower infesting
I got a time lapse of my map's progress
i need dom hard inspo
@woven drift those heart lakes type of thing looks soo cutee.. i once tryed it and it took me over 3 hours to get how it works... like damm
Keep the oil barrels or add wood barrels? I can’t place stuff on these rusty bois 😞
I've never even flattened my map before
@woven drift don’t do it it literally made me cry when i went to build
@woven drift the 2nd heart, double heart structure took me 4 hours
I stated to decorate mine, starting with the museum, it’s not the best though and the museum hasn’t relocated yet
My nature river was honestly really bad
y’all have good islands and mines flat 👁️
I had a natural heart pond before I flattened my island
What they come naturally???
So my default river was going down to down
I made my 2 hearts from scratch. 1.5 hours for first heart and 4 hours to incorporate the 2nd heart. What the hell? I never restarted my island and started from launch
I have 350 hours @Hun
I got it right at 12 am my time ;__;
And played until I fell asleep omg. I cant imagine restarting at this point!!!!
I don’t wanna restart because I have a blue airport 👁️
