if u have space, u can probably install a fairy light pattern to put on simple panel
Fun times having to get rid of all these white spaces from deleted custom designs 😣 and I have these custom designs in so many places around my island 😂
@burnt osprey Make the pattern entirely see through and they will prevent weeds!
@sturdy jackal good idea but still need to replace them all with the new custom design
@burnt osprey OOOH Oof.
I guess you still need the white design @burnt osprey ?
clown hours b wasting 400k on a bridge to make it 1 tile smaller
so i finally finished off my entrance(cottagecore and if you have any suggestions for it i’d be happy to hear them ) and im super happy with it but i’m not sure if i want to do the cottagecore for the entire island so does anybody have any suggestions of a theme that would go well with the cottagecore but is a lot more simple?
you could just do a natural theme i guess?? or mix cottage core with another theme
i’ve seen cottagecore mixed with rustic and industrial themes
What is the path that he/she used?
@royal fjord you can ask for paths/patterns in #custom-design-help🎨! 
Ok
@trail crystal i swear everything you make is beautiful
@lusty radish oh fancy seeing you here 
haha
Restarted my game recently, this is my new entrance 💞
teal windflowers 
@sturdy jackal
Sorry to hear about that. But to make the most of it, try to incorporate as many zodiac items as you can and maybe use some other white/ gold items to make up for it. Maybe also add in some white/yellw/gold/pink flowers to accent it better.
Also you could break up the whole are making a dedicated place for each of the imtes and making each area themed around it.
I hope this helps
- they made the white incline work
- desperately needed this for my island (everything is diagonal lol)
@errant otter I'll keep those suggestions in mind! Thanks :)
Pro tip: best way to make bright colors work is to provide contrast. so stone and white incline with a normal fence would also work. just leaving my two cents on the matter.

@brittle isle purple!
boujee
Any good ideas on how to design rocky areas on beach?
@tawdry hornet do you mean putting rocks like garden rocks on the beach or designing the rocks that are default on the beach?
I think they mean the second one
For designing rocks on beaches I have a rock that has a laundry area, a cafe and a spot to sit and relax
I have a dj dance club, a golden throne seating area, a bonsai nursery, and a shrine
Replacing my dirt paths with cobblestone 😤
looks much better imo
Thank you both 💖
Love the green benches in there
@austere fog I'm not sure if i'll stick with the green ones yet or replace them with the blue and pink ones
i like how people are slowly transitioning to the more foresty nature themes, like not even cottagecore just like...forest
Ooo I am a big fun of rainbow and colorful areas, so I really like the pink and blue ones
i would say try it and see how you feel about it, but right now, the green benches work beautifully and blend really well with the other colors you have in this area (the reds and yellows)
@austere fog The pink and blues ones are what I have in my ATM machine, so I might have them on display because...colourful, duh...and then I'll have the green ones blend in with the forest areas 🤔
That’s a good idea!
🥺
what can i add?
I like the look of weeds, so I would add a few weeds here and there
a drinking fountain somewhere would also look nice
@safe thistle More flowers maybe or, as @austere fog said, the weeds look nice right now 🙂
Autumn weeds are so pretty

Finally finished terraforming my entrance, forest theme/cottage core. Thoughts? 😊 Not decorated yet, but will post when its done. Just wanted to know if you guys think this is a good entrance? Or if you got any pointers. 😊
OOOOH! I love the way the water flows!!!
I kinda wanna just do all palm trees on my island but you need cedar trees 😦
@errant otter Tysm, I love it too 😭 so happy with it.

@solar saddle Not sure if you're referencing the cottage core style or something else, but you can fill your island with coconut trees (mine is). Just need to lay down a square of sand path before you plant.
I’m going for a tropical theme which means mostly coconuts and the occasional fruit tree but that really limits what I’ll have cause I won’t have many non fruit trees let alone pines
This is true. I set up a farm/orchard on mine where my fruit trees live. Also the highest inaccessible peak is where I'm keeping my cedar, hardwood, and money trees. It's to the very back of the island so unless you know where to look, they don't show. The rest of my island is coconut trees with some bamboo groves more inland.
Yeah I might just keep some by my house but it does make it more difficult that’s for sure though I’m liking how it’s coming
Now that I think of it, I may try scaling down how many fruit trees I have to just one of each fruit, and just store fruit for later if I ever want to plant more. Would give me more slots for bamboo and coconuts without harming my 5 star status. It's hard to fill big spaces though! I'm slowly running out of ideas that fit my tropical/realistic theme.
I filled mine with water lol
Haha! If I had the fortitude I could try for a volcano but man that's a lot of reworking my island from its current state
Mines 1/3 water lol
hi friends! so i'm working on planning out my glamping site with a beach bonfire hangout area. do you think the tent should be closer to the beach? once i place the tent (campsite), the next thing i'm placing is an incline to a waterfall viewing area 🙂
@red folio current water on my island. I don't think it's a lot of water but that's like looking at your big dog and thinking they're the size of a terrier.
Oh I have way more lol
That looks really good
Yours is nicely planned out though
Use the boba website
Here's a little before and after!
wow!
@ionic raft I personally love campsites on or close to beaches. Depending on what you're including though for glamming, I would leave enough space for non-beach friendly furniture for in front of the campsite if you had any you were planning to use like an outdoor kitchen
And thanks! None of it was planned. It's all been a work in progress from the beginning but it's starting to really come together after hundreds of hours
Wish I planned my island lol prolly would have been faster 😂

@rare basin ooh thank you! i wanted basically just like a big cute bohemian chill spot with a blanket and a bunch of plants and cushions 🙂 and over to the right, a little table and chairs in the lavender field, so since that's going to be horizontal, the campsite can go closer to the beach!
does anyone have any ideas as to how i can improve this his part of my island😄
Bushes!
lavender picnic inspo
ooooo thats sc
glamping inspo
sc
@arctic agate flower gardens look much better on dark brown dirt than grass
i wanna do that but i dont have the skills
😱GENIUS
i think flower fields look really pretty on grass though tbh
tysm!!!
Fields, sure, but little garden/patches should be on dirt. I have both :3
When it's a big area, I use grass
@ionic raft Ooo I like that! Yeah close to the beach as possible. You'll get the added bonus of height differences between furniture on the sand and the campsite on the land
is there a good way to do like a fork in the road without using custom paths? i feel like it just looks blocky and weird, but i want to save space on designs so im not using "the path" rn

@slim topaz here's a really really good guide on laying paths! https://twitter.com/sleepyluck/status/1288499121528029189
@ionic raft Ooo I like that! Yeah close to the beach as possible. You'll get the added bonus of height differences between furniture on the sand and the campsite on the land
@rare basin thank youuu! the land in this spot is so oddly shaped, i'm trying to figure out a good spot 😦
thanks so much!
I've struggled with laying paths too. I'm relying heavily on a scattered stone custom path for my island because of how frustrating it was to do diagonals. Though maybe be able to pull it off by having your separate paths go vertical a few squares, horizontal, vertical, etc. to get where you want. If you can hide some of the weird bends with trees/buildings/furniture/bushes, it may look more natural?
i'm playing with the idea of doing the in game dirt path as a main walkway and little wooden planks as secondary walkways!
yes im thinking of downloading a more city like path, the diagonals really mess me up too. i don't love that they don't show on map though
Right! Though if that were the case most of my island would be brown
I use a sand path and it’s made my island so much more tropical looking
need help redoing my island, will pay, dm me
Flower Fields (big areas) on grass vs flower patches (little areas) on dirt
Not unhappy with it, but still a lot to go on rebuilding the entire island from scratch
I'm getting a "It's a Small World After All" theme, but with flowers!
I’m collecting villager photos this island is gonna be all about them
got 21 so far only 400 and something to go 
Do you think this weirdly shaped patch of land could work for my campsite?
alrighty what i'm going to do is place the campsite and cross my fingers and hope i can make that weird patch of land work with the furniture 🙂
I think you could make it work, yes!
you probably can. If ur unsure u should do the pathing and furniture first and see how it'll look.
yeah you're right. i was avoiding it because my pockets are full of flowers lol but you're right. i need to visualize it first to make sure before i place it 🙂 the reason i flattened in the first place was because i wished i planned more/used an actual design process (i do this for a living)
Lol I'm working on my island too and it's as flat as plank
Does anyone have any campsite inspiration
Anyone have Leif on their island and willing to let me visit?
I do!
Yay!
I'll open in a second, I'm working on paths
Cool thank you
Anyone got map inspo!
@raw spade my rly simple campsite | @mystic lance wip map
Tysm!!
Dam looks good
My residential areas so far! 2 more houses to go!
Looks very elegant, I like it.
That’s amazing!
Thank you! ; _ ; The next two houses I have left will be tough. The next villager home is Sterling and his house is directly opposite my predominantly blue/white aesthetic x__x
@heavy cobalt @violet gale fix it LOL
@urban venture minsuya is you? I see you like everywhere on instagram
update: still brainstorming on what kinda furniture but i'm happy with the placement of the campsite ❤️
Start of the Halloween festival area which I’m building. Pumpkin flower mural is work in progress so it’s not here but I’ll share a pic of it later
@ionic raft this is what I did with my campsite, I feel like you used as much space as me so I thought I’d share
It’s gorgeous! I just made mine small because I’m lazy 
@ionic raft this is what I did with my campsite, I feel like you used as much space as me so I thought I’d share
@covert summit ooooh good job! i'm adding a little picnic in the lavender field next to it. i'm so excited to see if i can pull this off!
Small but beautiful campsite 😌✨
@ionic raft I think that would definitely look good and it’ll also help with the empty space around the campsite
Since we’re posting campsite pics here’s mine lol
I keep seeing these caves, I want one. It’s so pretty
I saw it a few months ago and really wanted to incorporate it somehow
If I don’t Idk where on my island to put it
I definitely want a cave. Maybe a smuggler's area by my secret beach... 
I feel like I might not have enough space once I finish placing all my villagers where they be long
Omg @cloud marsh you just have me and idea
Oooh do tell
Lmao I can put it by my secret beach too 😂
Omg bloop how is my baby Teddy doing 😭
My rocks area 😊
everyones campsite lookin nice and mine looks like poop
He’s good, I’m currently working on his tree farm. He’s my little lumberjack @golden nest
That whole corner of my island is avandoned since I moved my house back to the front of the island.
Haha he’s got an orange tree farm on my island too :)!
Awww that’s cute
This is my concept for the entrance to my Chinese district
Can’t wait to finish it, he has his own space on a cliff, that’s really my baby @golden nest
So happy my original teddy has such a good home:) @covert summit
I appreciate you letting me adopt him, took me forever to find him ♥️
This is what his house looks like! Ignore the empty cliffs this was an old pic
It suits him well I think
It definitely does, it gives me Goldilocks vibes lol
You’re so right haha
@ionic raft I think that would definitely look good and it’ll also help with the empty space around the campsite
@covert summit oooh yes for sure! don't worry, i refuse to leave empty space 😉 it'll be all decorated. i'm just so slow, so when i actually finish an area, it's a huge celebration for me hahaha
I’m the same way, it’s always take me more than 3 days to finish an area on my island. Taking your time is good @ionic raft
https://twitter.com/pickles_ac/status/1304469628656259073 this might or might not have taken me a week or 2...
Omg that’s so gorgeous
thank youuuu 😭 that's why i take so long. i have to relook, rethink, and play with all the ideas
Yeah it all works out in the end
it does 🙂 usually after involving other people in my brainstorming
Pumpkin patch is complete🥰
😮
That looks so nice 😍 😍
Love iiit!
That is too cute for my own health lmao
yaaassss killed it! @mighty field
Thank you guys🥰🥰
Why do I feel like other people have more custom design slots than me?
I can’t be the only one who feels this way 😭
@covert summit I feel the same 😭
ughhh move the campsite to the right a little to fit more trees by the incline or nah?
I am always struggling with custom slots. I try to only use designs I can use in at least three seperate places/ways. But it's tough
Yeah that’s hard to do
@ionic raft i think that could look nice but it's by no means necessary <3
98% completed gruffs yard, anyone have any ideas with what I can do on the right side besides the instruments? Where the pan flute and ocarina are. And then there’s bobs not even started yard 😂
Kabukis new yard let me know what u guys think :)
Does anyone have any inspiration for a front entrance with a very close plaza? I can’t even fathom how I’m going to make it look okay 😭😩

hello! does anybody have any ideas for this area right here? It's one giant section, I just formatted it like that because it wouldnt fit into one picture 😔
Up top is Nook's cranny and to the left with the little bit of path showing is suppose to be a Café
@median ridge I made it like this lol
My orchard 🙂
does this look okay?
Just finished up the market area for my island town, not sure what to put in the middle though. Was thinking a tree and some bushes but I’m not sure
Fountain could look good
I tried that, doesn’t really fit the island vibe since I’m going for a laidback kinda in the past vibe
Could do the barrel and ironwood cart with some random items on them and maybe a brown street lamp
Can houses be placed directly besides beaches?
Street lamp wouldn’t fit but the barrels aren’t a bad idea!

@red folio did you try recoloring a fountain... the red might be nice...
or like a mossy garden rock.. the rusty oil barrel looking thing..
@woven drift there is a list of things you can build in that area in pins.
Ohhh I don’t think I have the rock or barrel but that’s smart! I’ll look at the fountains
Anyone got any farm themed yards for their villagers? Im tryna do sherbs yard and make it farm themed
I second the barrels and boxes and the big bug enclosure you get from bug-off events. Make the center a clutter of recently delivered goods or goods to be exported. Can include fruit.
a well could look nice too!
I have oil barrels and rock DIY's I can send you if you're goint that route
Ahhh yes a well may fit well, I’ll try the trees and barrels first etc and see how that looks. Think I’m lacking on the oil barrels though
@red folio id say maybe do a 3x3 cliff and a tree ontop for some height
I don’t want to add too much height since the area is already surrounded by cliffs on each side but I may use that elsewhere
@prime loom Not mine and not yards but maybe inspo for some farm-yards.
There’s no way to get pre grown bushes is there?
I don't think so. Just got to grow them yourself
@rare basin thank.you, but i feel like imma end up doing something like a sailor themed yard for sherv
No problem!
@untold lily Oh okay! I'll have to check it out! (So sorry for the late response-!)
Just finished up the market area for my island town, not sure what to put in the middle though. Was thinking a tree and some bushes but I’m not sure
@red folio u can try a simple well, it'd match the stone fence u have in the back
should I use hedges or the stone fence for these houses?
My town hall is really close to my airport. Does anyone have any inspo or ideas for a cute entrance with limited space? 🙏🏻
This is my entrance! (The RS is right behind the waterfall)
Using the slide at my new tiki pool 😁
Not 100% happy with it, but it’s nice for what I have on hand atm. Once I get some rusty barrels I’ll add those in and I have to change the wooden sign with a custom idea
Anyone got any farm themed yards for their villagers? Im tryna do sherbs yard and make it farm themed
@prime loom made this. Is just simple. I dont have any desing slot for farm. So have to make it simple.
Final product 🥰🥰🥰 I’m so happy with how it turned out, I just need one more aloha doll and it will be perfect.
This is my entrance! (The RS is right behind the waterfall)
@plain tusk thank you!
lil snack area update
@median ridge and whoever else needs inspo for close RS and airport! 🤗
@odd walrus I love your entrance!!!
@median ridge tysm!
My entrance is 6 spaces away for the close RS thread lol
This is my entrance, I think it’s 10 spaces away from the res services
It’s a little bit more updated now with flowers, the lower level looks so plane in this picture 😭
my island is slowly coming together 🥺👉🏻👈🏻
campsite progress from earlier! i think the placement's finally working, so now i can fill it up!
This is my Entrance!
So this is maples house with her honey farm that’s on the cliffs but now I’m not sure what to put near her house, what should I put there for her?

@covert summit she has the education hobby so maybe a mini library and some cushions?
Ooh yeah, thanks!
My new blueberry farm! Once I get a couple more mush diys I’ll time travel so that the “blueberries” can grow
do you think these yards need to have fences? i’ll have to move all the houses out and in again if so since the fence doesn’t have room to reachthe back
Idk should i add more flowers at the entrance?
Maybe some white tulips?
Anyone have any residential area ideas because idk what to do with their houses anymore and I’m starting to hate my island
I need help pls guys. Made this villagers area but I don’t know what to put in the space where the trees are. Trees are only there coz I want to keep them but no space in pocket or place to put them yet. Help please
Maybe add some snack stalls or something?
@brisk ingot I used to have a neighborhood layout and it made me hate my island so much, I spread out my villagers houses and it made it easier to customize their yards to fit their personalities
i think i might have over prepared for my lavender field 👀
Idk should i add more flowers at the entrance?
@arctic oasis Anything purple would look lovely
What do u guys think
@golden nest ooh see I like yours! How did you even start to plan it out ? I do like it spread out better.
What a good personality for Raymond
@woven drift Smug
He has a science-y house so maybe some telescopes and stuff outside?
I really just started terraforming for one house and then once it was done I continued shaping the terrain to fit other houses until I liked the way it looked! ^Here’s some progress pics for example! I also would recommend moving the houses to the beach or one small area so that you have a flat space to work and not have to worry about anything getting in the way @brisk ingot
Who’s house? Oh...right Raymond
You could do an art gallery or reading nook for Raymond
Do a office or a library
@golden nest i am going to have to restart lol ugh here I go
Noooo can you not flatten it
Where could I get those things?
@woven drift those things being?
Can someone show their residential areas / layouts/ yards need some ideas
@ashen geyser here's an old collage of my neighborhood yards! map at the top left so you can see how the houses are placed~
can someone help me with an idea on how to decorate my rock garden?
Filling out more of my castle town and the bridge was worth the struggle
which should i go with?
i say the brick
Brick looks cleaner and more aesthetically pleasing!
I can send the qr code for the outline I use
i wish we could use saharah's rugs outside
@woven drift for Raymond I gave him a bookstore/art store!
my plaza and entrance I finished last week, what is everyone's thoughts on it?
not fully decorated though 😩
ughhh I wish my entrance lined up with my plazaaa
But it doesn't
😳
I'm so rude I'm sorry
it took me like 2 hours of resetting to find a map I liked
so uh.... thoughts on the video lmao
@past jetty it looks really good!!
thanks 🥺
@past jetty I think we have the same island lol
hey, anyone need help with their islands? always available to help hons
@past jetty it’s beautiful! 🌸
@austere fog ikr, love how acnh lets people explore aesthetics and creativity
@stable quarry yeeees! i love all the creativity and diversity ☺️
@limber ginkgo that's so adorable! lucky would be loving that paradise
Very cool @limber ginkgo !! i love those little aliens, so cute!
@austere fog agreed, animal crossing has alwayz been a game nobody can recreate, it has that special charm that makes you return for more and i still to this day wonder what it is that keeps me coming back
💯💖!!!
but yeah, anyone needhelp with their islands/parts? bored, just tell me ur aesthetic and ill give u some ideas
can anyone give me some ideas for this lil spot behind my plaza...i'm going for a seaside/witchy town thank you *i'm also an uncreative bitch so help
@woven drift ooh, you. could try sorrunding the back of the plaza with cedar trees, one of tnem has a gap and maybe there can be a little ritual/witchcraft area in the wood behind ur rs

@woven drift i might know a couple ancient patterns on pinterest if ur thinking of doing that
@limber ginkgo you have a monitor sensor camera or a chip on lucky change my mind haha
@icy flint Poppy too
w ay too cute
I haven’t seen this picture yet! So cute!
I have upgraded my little puppet show area! 😊🌈💖
@austere fog love it!!!
Thank you!!! 🥺 @stable quarry
Charlie ngl ima be the same when I finally finish the swamp and get ribbot
my entrance atm!! flattened my island and in process of making a rainbowcore entrance.. (ables isnt open yet ☹️)
Charlie ngl ima be the same when I finally finish the swamp and get ribbot
@icy flint I don't do a lot of terraforming these days so most of my time in-game is stalking villagers
the brown tiles are where everything has to go so it looks ugly atm > my entrance atm!! flattened my island and in process of making a rainbowcore entrance.. (ables isnt open yet ☹️)
@stable quarry
True but I needa get the swamp done since it’s a lazy way for me to finish up my map since this area is kinda big
And today is my first day free of homework and work so time to try to get ribbot!
@stable quarry ooo! i am so excited to see how it will look once finished!
unrelated but i ran into that robot emu (forgot the name) yesterday on a villager hunt, tangy, and that really creepy hamster 3 TIMES
@austere fog ty <3 will keep u updated
whenever I hunt I always find tipper
have fun on zoom or atleast try to lol
omg charlie im so happy first try the villager i want gone wants to leave this is gonna be a good night - oof nvm she wants to give me something rip
So this is teddy and he’s orangeades lumberjack, should I put the wooden incline to make it seem like he built it or should I do natural? I think they both would look really good but idk which to choose help pls

@covert summit I think the wooden incline would look really nice with his house
Ooh yeah true, I didn’t think of that
i did the same idea for erik and i gave him a natural ramp since it was in the mountain area
I like natural inclines but that’s just me
I did one of those wooden ramps next to his house too, I think it matches really well @covert summit
Same, every single incline is natural on my island except that one
Yeah I decided to do wooden and same lol
Trust me it will look so good! I love how it looks so far
Ooh I just noticed it would match your bridge as well
Ooh it really would, yeah the wood stairs would flow nicely
Here’s my entrance for inspo I think we have the same entrance tbh lol
my lil rock garden in front of my secret beach :)))
I need help with my Island! I want to keep the original river sorta the same. I've started doing things here and there but I don't like any of it 😦
@limber ginkgo debating on if zucker should leave marina rn (but i wanna get rid of stitches and tia tho)
I'm letting Audie go to my cousin's island so I'll be hunting sometime soon too
i hate trying to get rid of villagers because all the ones i want to stay want to leave instead and its a huge process for me
same tbh, originally poppy & lucky were the only villagers I never wanted to move now that list is like 6 villagers at this point
can someone give me some advice on how i should fix up my rivers.
I can pay nmts 
yess some charlie luck rubbed off and stitches wants to leave
I got Audie's photo though so when she moves out I can put it on the memorial
@alpine quartz imo trying to make rivers i would recommend adding some curves to it and building it in different ways towards the end point
@limber ginkgo i want to do that so bad for coco's graveyard but i didn't know about the photos in the beginning so ima just grind those nmts
I got my first photo before my first moveout so I kept it in my mind with every villager since, only one that moved out without giving their photo was Ankha
also i only had dobie, tammi, renee, t-bone, and now stitches leave my villager
I moved villagers a lot a couple months ago because I have all the amiibos ||via illicit methods I'm not allowed to mention here||
I did the wrapped bell trick back then to get photos faster too when I wanted a new villager
New and improved area!
I made a little cafe OwO
when you finish paying for a bridge but you thought of a better spot for it
no the worse is when you realized you wanna move it by one space so you have to redo it twice
Haha yeah lol
this bridge placement is 1 away from where it was before 
I'll probably just leave the bridge until I know what to do with the big awkward area in front of Ables
Anyone have an area with the fountain for inspo
WRONG IMAGE, LMAO used that as inspo, but i spent t o o much time on this bridge only to see no diff from the bridge i tore down from before
@limber ginkgo 70 nmt and a dream to find ribbot
newly finished hidden onsen on my island 🎋
Gorgeous as always @woven drift 
Nice
Wow so pretty
What should I put in Fang’s yard?
Duck pond! 🦆💕
that was so soothing omfg ty @vernal oxide
@timber breach literally was so soothing to do especially prepping for my classes to start. I went back to cherry blossom season (early April) and put the time to around 5:30pm to have it at sunset and set the nook phone camera to frame it short like that. Definitely recommend!
would anyone let me come to their 5 star island? i need some ideas! i’ll pay. message me x

@tacit locust you can always do dreams address...
So currently my island is about like this. In the center theres a three layer waterfall with a block jump path (+ vault pole section at the end) that leads to my secret beach. I kind of want to remove it but i dont know what to put there! Thoughts?
its 17 blocks/spaces wide.
Market Street?
Any ideas I can do for my island?
nope, no ideas
Add star frags mixed with a diner or market
@night merlin Star frag lake or sum
Alright thanks
I like that
@sinful kindle ohh maybe. I kinda have a market w stalls next to Able’s and Nooks and the campsite and my rock garden.
Anybody have a museum entrance layout?
@wheat glacier i did a maze with statues inside
struggling with my campsite just a little. i wanted to have a bohemian glamping feel and i feel like it's missing something (besides bushes, flowers, and more custom patterns). anyone see anything i don't see yet? maybe the tent should move backwards?
For those at #acnh-chat⛱️
That subtle smiley face
@wheat glacier the first pic is my museum entrance and then I have a trex, inclines on either side that leads up to the second pic!
Had to take a picture of this. This view is juts breathe taking in my opinion 
I demolished this bridge immediately after this ceremony
Pekoe’s wip telescope view 😼💅
@limber ginkgo i feel you haha! just changed my theme from cottagecore to rainbow core, so yeah lots of demolishing to do
@limber ginkgo lmao I felt that statement
Can you guys show me your shops? I haven't found anything I really like!
@thorny nebula ooh,! i sadly cannot show you atm, but whats your theme? i could possibly assist ^^
@thorny nebula
Cottage core for the most part!
Here’s a photo I just got that I particularly like. Don’t mind the Harry Potter outfit, it’s from the cinema event. These are my royal palace gardens.
Love the red theme @limber ginkgo
That’s not the best picture but that’s why my shops look like
Love the red theme @limber ginkgo
@thorny nebula ty! I change the color of the labelle set every now and then
Love that path!
I got tired of waiting for Brewster to appear, thankfully #misc-pattern-codes had my back
Any suggestions?
@covert summit 😧😥🥺😭 no u
@thorny nebula my shop area!
@plain forge LOVE
Wow your island looks amazing ✨
@soft plaza do you happen to have the code for the path?
My valley lake is coming along better than I thought
@urban vigil whoa what does the bottom of the stairs look like?

Thanks so much!
Before and after
Today’s before and after, wish I had a before of the original dark dirt path
So I became convinced by pictures from here that I needed a cave, but design slots are too tight to spend one on a single-use pattern, so my cafe is now spooky 😂
@red folio that looks amazing! I love the tropical/pirate vibes.
It’s coming along but it’s been a slow process, taken probably 50 hours over the past 5 days
Oof. I feel that. All of my areas take absolutely forever
Yeah redoing the path has been a pain
What should I do

hay maze 🍁🍃🎃 (reposted lol)
Depends on what your theme is @teal narwhal
Which color should I go for ? Or should I use a green streetlamp ?
@red folio I'm going for cute and witch
Hmm def out of my area of expertise but maybe a small hidden forest?
he’s so photosynthesis 🌱✨
redid my entrance! trying to turn my island into a witchcore/cottagecore theme.. any tips?
definitely add more plants and make the area a bit messy so it’s not overly organised
There’s a new band in acnh
Its called the scarecrows 😎😎😎
my rainbow bridge coming together yall
My nook's cranny layout next is able sisters.
Dark or orange bench?
orange!!
Green or black ?
I'm looking for an inspiration for my right side beach anyone can show me their beach area 😄 ?
these are my beaches ; but my whole island is overgrown:)
https://twitter.com/pickles_ac/status/1306111467893280768/photo/1 WIP but I'm excited about this!
hi
The Moon Cult has acquired a cannon.
Showing off my brand new pagoda in the background
mini santoriniiiiiiiiiiiiii
super happy with how this spot is turning out
I got bored with my entrance and wanted to go with something more romantic and simpler I guess. Now I’m unsure which I like better (yes I’ve tt to see how it looks with cb) first photo before second is after
there are parts i like in the past entrance and there are parts i like in the new one tbh
@manic sigil I think I’m the same which makes it hard 😂
Trying to work on my island entrance. I've been struggling a lot since my airport is really close to my plaza. Does anyone have any tips for me or critiqe, I would like to know what others think of what I've got so far :0
@woven drift i really like it 
can anyone show their rock garden?
can anyone show their rock garden?
@neon current ignore the crying me
Does anybody know someone that designs islands for people please? I’m having trouble with designing mine on the website.
Not sure if this is allowed here but if not can someone please tell me which channel to go to?
@woven drift u can look on nookazon, ppl charge to design ur island map
the actual website, search up island on the searchbar and itll come up
Okay I’ll check it thank you
does anybody have any suggestions in what i could put in this area??
How bout a playground or a diner?
i tried both of them but it just didn’t look right with the theme, there’s three villager houses behind it and i’m going for cottagecore
A mini park?
perhaps
This is how I feel like right now 😅
true 
mood
shmood
Any ideas?
How about some more flowers that aren’t mums?
ooo yeah like cosmos, and hyacinths?
Yes purple hyacinths maybe go back to get some azaleas
and some blue roses?
Oh yes indeed
tyvm 🙂
Finally changed my cafe and I think I like it a lot more first pic is now second pic is before
yeah i like 1st pic a lot more 
mfw pekoe and molly were sitting tg and as soon as i walked next to them to get a better pic they walk away
yeah first pic is good! and I like it alot more gj 
hay maze 🍁🍃🎃 (reposted lol)
@woven drift how do you get that grass colour? does that depend on seasons?
Thank you!
hate it here
@manic sigil Thank you so much! ❤️


But any idea for here?
i am looking for an area to put all my villagers, please pm me
please someone help im stuck for ideas
i am looking for an area to put all my villagers, please pm me
@lament spindle Send a pic of the map
@scenic siren woah, had to take a second look there. Your shop has a similar setup as mine, so while just scrolling through this channel I glanced of your pic and got confused for a sec xD
Anyone got cafe inspo
Can someone give me a Japanese idea or ideas for the entrance of my island please?
Anyone got cafe inspo
@tacit smelt
Anyone got cafe inspo
@tacit smelt
I have one but it’s bad
Why is everyone’s island so much better than me 
@rancid salmon @limber ginkgo it’s fine just keep working on ur island till ur happy with it lmk if u need inspo I will be happy to give u a tour of my work in progress island. thank you guys
why is there a 5 item limit for cataloging, i need so many simple panels lmao
Can someone give me a Japanese idea or ideas for the entrance of my island please?
@rancid salmon sorry for the mini image dump, these are pics of my bamboo/Zen area!
the flowers have been going crazy, I've had so much rain lately
Thanks 😊
Does anyone have any pastries or an idea about how to do pastries for my cafe?
I'm sure you guys prob get this question a lot, but do you guys know what all the options are for furniture or placeable items that can stand side by side without any gaps left in between them? I know of simple panels, bookshelves, and box sofas. Are there any others or a list of them somewhere? Google is failing me 😅
@barren frost Please get the trade role here #721542917264638002, read the rules and tick the green checkmark ✅ . Afterwards you can look for turnips here -> #daisy-nookling-ads / #turnips-looking-for 
any tips to improve this area??
@blissful socket more pandas! big pandas! and some leaf piles for them!
@barren mesa I would try checking #custom-design-help🎨 ! I used different things for my bakery and used custom designs!
Picnic area behind my plaza 😊
What do you guys think?
It's very cute!
a little seating area I put together while watching youtube videos all night. not completely sold on the theme just yet so it could be completely different 24h from now 
Does anyone have any pastries or an idea about how to do pastries for my cafe?
@barren mesa late response, but you can use custom hats with food designs on them! There's lots of great pastry designs if you look up acnh food hats on pinterest or utilize the search in ables. There's also mom cakes & birthday cupcakes in-game
@plain forge thank you
Can anybody help me im doing a theme good vs evil but dont know any good furniture and any evil furniture
Library inspired
good furnitures- valiant statues?
evil furnitures- jail bars, iron + stone fences
So I think I want to flatten my island and start over but I need tips so I don’t feel so anxious 😂
I’m not good with designing I love playing around with my island but I’m terrible I was just wondering if anyone have any advice for placing out houses I have spent so many bells placing and re placing
@woven drift if you want a neighborhood, here's a good guide to help you plan the structure 👇 if you want them scattered, I would start sectioning off general areas where you'd like your villagers to be and decorating around it
Thank you so much!
@zenith ginkgo rather than flattening your island and getting overwhelmed by the giant space (as many people do), I'd suggest to work on one section at a time. For instance I always start on my entrance and work my way upwards, so I'd only destroy/flatten the bottom, or 30-40% of my island and start building
what should i do for dizzy and sherbs yard i have a quite large space
and doms is empty too idk what to do
and i wanna redo lollys it’s so bad, but idk what to do someone help
@primal tartan for sherbs yard I’ve seen people make the moon furniture (nova lights, moon, and crescent moon chairs) with overall blue/white furniture and flowers but I’ve also seen people make playgrounds. For dizzy I would make elephant slides and kidcore items. For lolly I would put the cat tree, cat grass, and maybe the pet bed with gray/pink furniture, and for Dom I would make him like a pink aesthetic gym!
omg wow tysm! wow that is awesome i’ll see what furniture i have. could someone list like 3 different types of flowers for lolly, dizzy, sherb, and dom? ty guys!
and what gym items are pink though idk where to find them
Updated my picnic area 👌🏻
oh wow that’s cute
@primal tartan Idk if there are many pink gym items but maybe make it white and pink? Also for sherb I say hyacinths and mums, for dizzy windflowers, lolly maybe lillies, and for Dom maybe like hyacinths again
yeah that’s awesome! i have a main flower for my island being the white hyacinth so i’ll add those too. tysm!
@primal tartan also the elephant slide, scooters, and climbing walls have pink variation btw for Dom but I’m not too sure about any other gym equipment
oh wow yeah! maybe for dom i’ll see other ideas, gym equipment isn’t really the best for a pink aesthetic
@primal tartan According to Nookpedia Dom's favourite colours are 'red and colourful', so maybe try searching for furniture like that?
@primal tartan Exercise ball, Kettle ball, protein shake mixer and mountain bike for fitness items
perfect i’ll see rainbow and red items ty guys!!
I personally always try to decorate my villagers gardens according to their favourite style/colour
And I often place similar items outside their house as they have inside their house
Rather than going off of their personality type alone
But that's just me 🤷♀️
yeah i was thinking that but having more cute sky blue items outside would be repetitive
what fence would you use for sherb
@primal tartan For the lazy I have I've gone for the vertical board fence
I figure being lazy they don't care too much about having cool looking fences
It's really hard trying to figure out how I can make a cliff here. I always worry about the view being blocked.
Not sure if I should leave it blank for now and move on or work on this area.
Edit: i might have figured out what to do!
@primal tartan For the lazy I have I've gone for the vertical board fence
I figure being lazy they don't care too much about having cool looking fences
@bleak wind ty!
@primal tartan The stone wall might suit Sherbs house though, because his roof and front steps are stone and all
I figure stone would be better cause it requires less work to maintain
Redid my entry plaza.
That’s so pretty!
Thanks.
Anyone know any furniture items relating to planes/piloting apart from the DAL model plane (doesnt have to be super obvious)?? - trying to redecorate Apollo’s exterior and I don’t want it to be just clothing🤣🤣 appreciate any help!! 🥰
@elder roost Although might I suggest that you do a border of a different kind of path and in the middle then u put the moon path
Like a stone path and then inside a stone path border out the moon path
All right, I can fix that.
@woven dew there's the pilot uniform, shades, and hat from ables and custom designs you can put in panels or shop signs; you can also make it into a pilot/plane command center by putting desks & office items like computers! @icy flint has one on their island that you can search up from their previous posts
@plain forge oh my gosh I never even thought of a command centre!! That’s super creative I’ll definitely check out their post to see how they’ve used it! Thank you so much!! 🥰🥰
When mockingjae mentions your work

what would be cute to put in front of the museum? it's not quite wide enough for a full fossil set
I also made the window panel it’s A1 duding golden hour so lmk if you want me to send the code
@raw steppe a whole lot of coprolite
@raw steppe a whole lot of coprolite
@stiff mulch the heck is that 😂
Fossilized doodoo
Fossilized doodoo
@stiff mulch to google
?
Fossilized doodoo
@stiff mulch 🤦♀️ lovely. hard pass
Haha 😂 but honestly the sabertooth tiger is a two part fossil that might look good
i had the t-rex but it's three parts
Ye
Or maybe make the outside into a space theme? On top of my museum I placed down an astronaut suit and the clothes as well
@icy flint , out here with the ACTUALLY creative ideas 😆
This is kinda what I mean with the suits
I need Judy yard inspo 😦
I need help with my new island name
Or maybe make the outside into a space theme? On top of my museum I placed down an astronaut suit and the clothes as well
@icy flint i wish we could make planets 😭
@raw steppe a friend of a friend is making the solar system on the island but it’s not the same tho haha
@raw steppe a friend of a friend is making the solar system on the island but it’s not the same tho haha
@icy flint celeste should have recipes to make the planets. that'd be EPIC
@raw steppe moons and asteroids could work would be basic but still a+ for creativity
Thanks
So Im trying to go for a Caribbean beach for my island entrance and Im struggling with the stage.. anyone have any ideas?
some simple panels that could act as a wall or maybe a curtain?
Anyone have some good clothing store layouts? Looking for some inspiration
So cool! Thanks for the inspo 😄
So cool! Thanks for the inspo 😄
@worn jay nppppp
@echo anchor there’s mine it’s on a heart shaped bit in the middle of my river
@echo anchor I dont have a recent picture (I did some changes after this was taken) or map but i have my Ables on 2 floor and Nooks on first floor. 😄
My nooks looks like this, and I’m trying to connect my ables next to it
But it’s an open plot of land...so I want to make the most out of it
@echo anchor maybe a flower garden next to it or like a little mystical area if u have free space
Or just terraform that’s what I did
does anyone have a list of kidcore kinda furniture? not the wooden ones i want some for a playground kinda yard
I’ll take a screenshot of it later, but I’m conflicted if I should use the stalls as a bit of a small shop. Don’t want to make the theme repetitive
@echo anchor maybe put like expensive looking things in the stalls, I put rings but u could put the crowns
I’m building a cemetery and was wondering if anyone give me any more ideas to put in there?
Anyone wanna play later? I got a switch and animal crossing on saturday and I need some tips and tricks and stuff so dm me if you wanna play 👍
Idk if it's the fencing or the flooring that seems off.
my island is a real mess and this is the only area that is done
Ideas on what I can do !
@mystic lance library, enchanted forest, picnic area, flowery area with the furniture, a cemetery, pool area, woods with dinosaurs in it
Ok ty !
finished my campsite entrance!! nothing much but i rly like it!
Didn’t the path come with an original picture?
Yeah
Check that out
But I can’t find it rip
Search for it in the magnifying glass and describe it like the colour and stuff and see if it comes up
Where's the Halloween vibes at. .-.
Is the there a small object that resembles a boat. I used throwback container for trains, dal planes for planes. But what is a good boat..
ship in a bottle?
I found it
@frozen granite that’s soooo cuteeeee
I don’t thijk I did it right
Just play around with it cause it doesn’t have to look exactly the same
Hey my resident services is super duper close to my airport, how can I make a nice entrance with that eyesore so close?
@stiff mulch try to terraform, and make mountains?
Yes I could but I don’t have a lot of space to do so
@stiff mulch this person's RS is 4 spaces away from airport
That’s super pretty but I mean, the rs is RIGHT in front, like 4 spaces directly in front of the airport
Hm- maybe do somewhat of the same thing, if it matches your theme, just straight?
Has anyone gotbsome simple entrance deigns
If you want simple you can do a quaint little bridge over a river or maybe a nice shrub path
You cna also add in a nice archway with a custom path
Ok
Has anyone else leveled their island and then immediately regretted it? I reallllyyy messed up.
This what i have atm lol
Wait no its not a good design
I need to make it beeter idk how tho
@weak bone I haven't but just wondering if there is a way to get your old island back using the backup??
@knotty wing I never made a backup 😭😭😭
Oh nooo! 😢
@knotty wing if I can’t fix it I’ll take everything I want to keep and drop it on someone else’s beach and start over. 😬😬
@weak bone yeah good idea. Or if you have a picture of your old map we could help you terraform it back?
@knotty wing are other people able to terraform on your island?
@knotty wing I’m going to try to terraform each place at one time, instead of trying to do it all at once. Like start with my entrance and decorate and everything and then move to the nooks & ables, maybe it’ll help keep me from being overwhelmed.
@weak bone I might consider doing that. Just to get a fresh perspective and such.
I feel like I've kinda plateaued in the game and the best part of it was setting up and terraforming the whole island.
Maye I'd move the whole neighborhood somewhere else. Focus on either 3 small spaces for the whole island insted of my poorly thought up scattered thoguhts
But I always find myself unhappy with most of my other ideas.
@errant otter im not good at imagining how@to design a spot so I’m going to use a lot of inspiration from other but I’m hoping it’ll make the game a lot of fun for me, I Leveled it all Bc I felt like I got burnt out on the options I had, so hopefully i find a new love for it!
Either it's due to the flowers I've placed or of the poor use of my custom paths
I hope everything goes well for you
@errant otter I feel you, I wish I was better at the decorating aspect 😂
Do you plan on posting your progress at all?
I think my biggest mistake was my theme park area. I didn't have the best ideas for it and in the end it just winded up looking like a waste of space.... I'll post up my pics after my work.
Do you use Pinterest or anything to help with ideas?
Mostly this dicord and some twitter pics
How do people make those cool looking maps of their island. They all seem to be the same style. Is it an app?
Try Pinterest and reddit.
any ideas for sherb and dizzys yard? it looks a bit empty i need more furniture. tomorrow when ables opens i’ll get some kidcore patterns and put them on the floor
why did you delete it
what 😀
Here's the new one, I noticed it was a older picture, so I needed to take a new one and update the dream address, sorry😅😅
0_0
yes that one
I commend your dilligence in making this!
the InSpIrAtIoN
@tired breach @errant otter it took forever 😅😅
i just need to finish paying my house off then the real construction begins
@tired breach how much more u need?
not much like 1.3 mill
Last upgrade I'm guessing?
I completely demolished my old island
thats what im gonna do
im going to move all building to the beach
and then my imagination takes control
I used island designer to help for mine
is it hard to use?
Not really, just make sure u save what u did
Wide angle shot of my entrance + rock halo (done by stitching together 8-9 pictures in Clip Studio Paint)!!
This what i have atm lol
@dreamy zealot hey if you're still looking for ideas you could add fencing that leads to a bridge or add little falls/cliffs beside your entrance so it doesn't seem so empty! You could also do a little airport waiting area thing with chairs and a stall/clock/vending machines
You could also do a field of flowers and a fountain
im shookth
@urban venture THAT LOOKS AMAZING!!!
Hey guys! I'm kinda new to this channel :)
These days i've been working on terraforming my whole island... i didn't like the urban theme and so i decided to make something that looked natural!
Sadly i'm not good at waterscaping, so i would be thankful if someone can give me some ispo :)
Thank you!! ; _ ;
yall are soo talented!
im jealous
I could use some ideas and feedback on sherbs yard
Amazing @urban venture !! 
@tired breach thank you,but i feel like its missing...something
Sorry if it’s too late but for happy island designer I’d just recommend figuring out which block is which and take your time with it and have fun! Also, happy island designer is a great way to plan out sections for your island but also sometimes it won’t be 100% the same since you might wanna change things in a certain way while working on that section if that makes sense
@prime loom Any idea on what you wanna put on the left side? Was gonna suggest adding maybe some bushes and more trees so the fencing doesn’t look plain imo
@tired breach log stool and wild logs are a go to imo for forest areas as well as bamboos lol
I dont think trees are the prob bc i used (basically) the same layout for faunas(imma post so u van see what i mean) area and i really liked the results of faunas yard,i jist feel like sherbs yard is a bit bland
i dont know anything about decorating. Im going to start decorating in a week or so
anyone have tips on terraforming
Wasn’t saying to add more trees but I was trying to maybe make a fence pattern like you did with faunas yard like 1 fence, then 1 bush and maybe a tree
Ah ye, i tried that but not like full around his house,i dont really like how it looks but im gonna try it and see hownit looks :) thank u!
Np! My bad for not being specific on the first message lol but send a pic of the finished product
This is alsp kabukis yard
how do you guys know what to put everywhere?
It’s not done yet, probably 90% for paths and 50% for decoration and trees etc but here’s how my island is shaping up
I know it’s really nothing special but I worked so hard on this today
how do you guys know what to put everywhere?
@tired breach i usually base it off the villagers pure aethetic
Bad pic but I’m currently redoing kabukis place by adding a dojo and some bamboo trees
Like if its a very realistic/natury villager like fauna or beau etc i try and do a forest theme
Playing for a long time and you can get 3 a day from villagers crafting
i seen a video and they said only 2...my life is a lie
It also depends on the theme in my opinion since My theme is ruins/ abandon so I use certain items
how did you guys know where to place your houses
does anyone have a nice functioning orchard? i’m not sure how to set up my trees but my space is very large. i still want to be able to harvest the fruit and catch bugs on the trunk so not sure how to set it up maybe
xoxox
oxoxo idk
U are guaranteed 4 diys a day, 1 beach bottle and 3 crafting villager
o
U can obviously get more from balloons and stuff
@left zealot if you have a lot of room maybe do 5 rows of a certain fruit tree (that’s what I did beginning of the game) but now I just have 3 trees in a triangle formation
Bugs
@tired breach if you have common acnh questions then I suggest going to #acnh-chat⛱️ or #game-help-questions❓ so you don’t get a strike, but I do turnips
@tired breach need some help with bells I don't mind helping
Lucy the saint out here helping people haha
no I just wonder how people get so much money so fast
@icy flint It's how I am I can't help but ask @tired breach I was just wondering
is 50k in 20 minutes a lot?
@wispy jay Ik Ik not the first time I’ve seen ya help out haha
😅😅
I've created the weirdest waterfall ever-
Any entrance ideas for this?
someone pls give me ideas? i’m looking for a kidcore style in dizzys yard and a nova light blue themed
That bypassed fast lmao
Maybe add a hammock?
Also a tree could really h elp with giving a nice shadded feeling, like a cozzy feeling. Also in you have the recipe use some building blocks and color accordingly
What fences go good with marshals house?
@primal tartan you could probably put down the sand path over a section of the yards since the playground items you have rn look better on it than on grass (imo)
hm okay ty guys! i’ll do some kinda path and add some chalk drawing
Hi everyone 👋 ! How does this soccer goal look here?
Anyone have any good entrances? I am in need of some entrance inspo.
@woven drift I’ve seen people make a library space/ office for Raymond as well as a coffee shop @calm narwhal how far is your entrance from RS?
@bleak wind maybe suggest putting it the other way around? Don’t wanna kick the soccer ball over the net and have it be swimming haha
@calm narwhal
short entrance gang
Some stuff I was working on !
@bleak wind maybe suggest putting it the other way around? Don’t wanna kick the soccer ball over the net and have it be swimming haha
@icy flint That's a very good point 😂
Wow !
My ruins mountain lol
@icy flint
@calm narwhal you have a lot of space I suggest maybe terraforming cliffs around the entrance so you can make it into a 2 way pathway one to the RS and the other tunnel to another place if that makes sense (can’t help much since I only have a short entrance haha)
Here is part of my island which could be a good entrance ! @calm narwhal
This is my entrance, about 17 spaces away from airport (right under the dirt path), with a medieval theme going on. From your map it looks like you have a lot of space to do a variety of things; grand waterfalls, lots of cliffs, a separate plaza from the RS, etc! @calm narwhal
Started to build with Stonehenge
Prince Zuko??
I also found this really neat short entrance with a bridge & cliff for anyone who needs inspo. Possibilities are endless even with entrances less than 10 spaces
@plain forge love how Raymond just slowly walks into the frame and started walking up
My short entrance for inspo
@icy flint he's in literally every vid/pic I take bc he's an attention seeker
peep him in the plaza of my flyover
Last night I was looking for Ribbot and I came across Raymond I was debating for like 20mins but didn’t get
him nor ribbot yet
@plain forge It's like he knows he's being watched 🤣
@bleak wind I was just about to say that he has some cameras hidden throughout the map and is waiting for his chance to show off
Nyack big rip
if u had Raymond u could've traded him for any character in the game
Can anybody help me find an idea for what can go in this area of land its waaaay tooo big
Newly redecorated plaza (feat. Pudge)
@plain forge I have like 30 NMT left so if I don’t get ribbot then I’ll regret it haha but I was feeling good vibes coming from the game so I thought I was gonna get him (swamp can’t be finished without him)
Imagine having this much land and not knowing what to do with it
@vague garden there's lots of ideas in the pinned section of this chat!
Hi can I have some ideas for my entrance
I know I want to add a bridge but idk what else
@past anchor scroll up we just had a small entrance posting session haha
Thank you i didn’t see that
Does anybody like my island layout also where the pin is i need ideas for that area
@plain forge it’s time to see if I’ll get ribbot or regret not getting Raymond for an easy flip - in my defense I thought Raymond was so overrated that his value went down by a lot lol
@icy flint ooo you got this!! Lmk and I can donate a stack of nmt for ur efforts huahaha
Can anybody come to my island in like 30 mins to come see what i can do in the area with the orange pin
Any good outdoor pool ideas? At me if u do.
I figure Id use the shower booth, pool, and lifegaurd towers and mabey a beach chair,
@icy flint still hunting? good luck 
@limber ginkgo well about that I’m tryna get rid of the new villager now since Agnes came along and I never seen her at an island nor campsite so I’m annoyed

Yeah it’s one of those days
Island life do be hard
I used to have Agnes a thousand years ago ||she's sweet though I might eventually get her back||
It really do especially when Tom nook doesn’t ask you and just invites them to stay
Yeah plots don't really stay open more than 24h
An arcade area I tried to make. I think I should spread it out more TBH.
@limber ginkgo don’t get me wrong I like her house color but I already have coco for the graveyard so it wouldn’t match my theme
@icy flint Nook is keeping your character prisoner, I'm convinced of it
Also fyi I don’t count this as a villager for my graveyard @limber ginkgo
Here’s parts of my theme park area. If anyone has advice I’m all ears.
does anyone have any gothy islands?
@green kite I have a gothy part to my island, I can get some images
@green kite I have a gothy part to my island, I can get some images
@night fjord yesssss please
working on my rainbowcore entrance. any more ideas? :)
Maybe have different flowers making up the entrance.
yup! i planted some red lilys and hisbiscus bushes they'll bloom tomorrow
good idea!!
just a small simple park i’m working on! what should i put in that empty space where i’m standing?
@thorn ginkgo maybe an elephant slide with some mountain bikes and some soccer goals would look great
@thorn ginkgo maybe an elephant slide with some mountain bikes and some soccer goals would look great
@stable quarry the mountain bikes would be great! i already have the slide in the corner tho
alright! i'd put the mountain bikes a bit scattered around the park so it looks like some kids maybe just stopped there yknow
its little elements that really improve the area
genius!thanks!
np :)
Finally cleaning up my island to get it ready for a dream
Whoah!!! That’s a lot of recipes
Here’s the map of my island. I’ve got all the residents living side by side and made sure the shops were close together. I do feel like my park all the way to the left and up is taking up a lot of space.
@green kite far from completed, but this is my goth area for Mathilda, Apollo, and Cherry https://twitter.com/Onalonelyscreen/status/1306347046303981568
hello everyone! send me a message if u need help with your island! whether it's a dm or a tag, i'm here to help! tell me the theme and you'll have a decorated area :)
Got my first dream uploaded! Well first one I’m happy with lol. The very first one was just a test 😂
@red folio congrats!! whats ur dream address so i can visit?? :)
I sent ya a pm
I changed my path for fall! ✨ 🍄
Cool!!
Can someone send me cool pond looks for my island? Like shaped ponds!
@errant monolith What vibe are you going for?
I mean its in a forest but something that looks nice maybe its shaped like a real thing? I dont really have a "vibe" or maybe a heart shape bigger than 5×5?
Yeah looks nice I'll give it a try
👍🏽
@errant monolith a friend has this pond in the bottom right of her island
it's a double heart, not sure if it'll be too big for what you're aiming for though
@night fjord wow that looks rlly good
and then that's a shot of it. Again, not mine it's Baby seal's
I have about this much space for a pond ideas?
Those are good tho I need to figure out grid
hmmm
should the stone fence go all the way to the path or is it fine as is?
pee
maybe a star shape pond? like a curved 4 point star one?
I’d go with a rounded shape maybe?
Maybe a crescent moon?
I found one I really like but idk the instructions
I think i can make space for it lmao
Ooh thats cutee
that's simple enough to make
I finally finished my rock garden
pretty
does this paving work for merry’s house?
I dont know if its my screen but for me its a bit bright and pastel for her house, which looks a bit old timey! <3
I feel like it’s a little bright. Imo
idrk
Okay ty! I may just use the terra-cotta
@blissful schooner maybe a pink brick pattern would like nice
i like the look of this
Could anyone with a resident services close to the airport show me what they’ve done with their new entrance? I also have the double river mouths on the bottom of the map and I’m totally lost at what to do
same
@blissful schooner yea i like that 😁
@wild flax This is my entrance, I hope it helps it depends how close your RS is
epic
Ty 😅
What’s a good way to plant flowers in a villagers yard without giving them room to breed?
that looks good @austere fog
You can place custom designs (or paths that are not dirt) around them, that way they dont have space to grow
@vapid hemlock I used invisible custom designs to stop mine breeding
Thank you @vale jackal 
Ahh gotcha. Thanks
:)
You're welcome 🥰
@boreal terrace @austere fog thank you for sharing! Those look great!
Needs more palm trees I think. Anyone else agree?
@wild flax this is mine. If anyone has suggestions lmk. It doesn’t fit in the picture but hope you can see. Also ignore the random look of my map I have a LOT to work on 😅
@red folio yes! 🌴
Does anyone have any ideas for Muffy's yard? I've got the flowers down so far-
@junior sable that’s so pretty! My river mouths have been driving me crazy 😂
Not sure where to put the palm trees though it’s all water 😂
@wild flax same here!! Def wish I picked another layout but it is what it is 😅
@junior sable I thought this one would be the best bc it’s symmetrical! Now I wish I had a different one lol
Some photos of my dark/haunted forest
I completely flattened out my island so I could make my dream island but now I have no idea where to start ✌😎
beach by the ... beach
does anyone know what's a good chair for an outside theater?
i was thinking zen pillows but there's also director's chairs and the sofas that can look good
which would be good for the theater?
What flowers should I use in Coles yard?
yellow and green ones ^
Does this look okay? I'm really bad at decorating...
Should I add something? Flowers?? a tree idk..
@olive belfry looks great!! I would add a couple of trees and some shrubs
I love it! I'd just reccomend to maybe add some plants! <3
@wispy tiger @ebon kite Thank you for the feedback
Np! Absolutely love it doe <3
Marshals new yard
A rough draft of my island layout. I am going for a half urban half natural type island. What do you think of my current layout?(sorry for shitty quality😅)
Can I see any of your guys' blue rose, or purple hyacinth/"lavender" gardens? I want inspo because I love the flowers but their colours are so harsh!

@woven drift also if you have an urban theme for your island i would appreciate a picture of your map for inspiration!
anyone have any ideas of what I could add here it's not that big of an area and I dont have any ideas
Maybe some little chairs and tables like a coffee stand area
i already have a cafe almost right next to the area
My house layout so far! Still have 4 more to move around
you nakey 👁️ 👄 👁️
😳
Outside of ables looks like this-how to improve?
Any tips on how to decorate a beach?
@echo anchor I think the decorations around ables look great! I'd start filling the area now with trees, cliffs, and/or other structures, and add pathing for a fuller look!

@echo anchor My shop itself is pretty empty but I put a Labelle garden beside it
Anyone have tips on getting 3 stars?
place furniture all over the place and you'll eventually get 3 stars, once you get terraforming you can clean it all up
@glacial narwhal From playing on my own time and blind. What I found out is that you need 10 villagers to get above 1 star. I also had no issue with the flowers because I had already begun breeding for hybrids, so that's an easy way to get the flowers. Fruit trees are great for adding more trees and it doesn't take a lot of furniture to reach the requirement from my own playtime
Video of my entrance + rock halo garden with moving waterfalls and looping music 🥺🥺🥺
dream address?? 😍✨
@mild flint none yet! 😭😭 Deff dropping it when I’m about 80% complete!! I’m at 40% so far 😭😭
That’s such an elaborate and beautiful entrance 😭

@urban venture ooh okayyy :')) well please let me know once you have one!
Of course! Would love to have u over!!

@urban venture wow that entrance is incredible
@rich briar thank u! ; _ ;
Made this new botanical garden I really like how it turned out 🥰
HOL- can I pay you to decorate my island 😭😭
That looks amazing@rich briar
Do you accept NMTs
@glacial narwhal aw tysm ❤️
That’s such an elaborate and beautiful entrance 😭
@golden nest
Right?! Mine is trash
@rich briar I was planning on making a botanical gardens but now after seeing yours I'll never be able to make it look that good
@glacial narwhal aw really appreciate that, but honestly just try it you might surprise yourself and make a really pretty garden
You can also look at Pinterest for inspo to just get an idea of how to create it
does anyone have some city inspiration or maps for a city?
ill post my dream link in a couple days
Does this look bad for a start on my front entrance to my island? I’m going to add a rainbow flower look with the moons and put a fence around the whole little area
Your enterance looks beautiful!
light or dark dirt?
@ionic raft the light looks good!
I agree with Vampy!
With getting to 3 stars, if I just plant flower seeds will that count as flowers?
Sorry wrong channel
how can i make this look better?
omg i just spent like an hour trying to make an area cooler on my island but now it’s just worse😭
ughhh it happens 😦

@uneven knot I have 4 star with 8 villagers....
Really? That's kinda weird... I could never get above 1 with fewer than 10. But the day I got 10 I was instant 3 stars
I was stuck at 2 stars. Got my 6 or 7 villy. Got 3 the same day nothing changed on my island except villy. Same for 4 star. Got it the same day as 7/8 villy
Does anyone here design maps ? I have a creative block rn and I restored and would love if someone could design me a map.. I have a few things already that I want included 🥺 ..l will give 10 million bells and 400 NMT as a thank you! ... show me your work please ( I want something like this pic ... )
Huh. That's very interesting. From my talks with Isabelle she always said I was at 1 star and always said the island needed more villagers. Kept it clean, kept breeding flowers. wasn't cutting any trees down. Had furniture here and there. Even at 9 villagers, 1 star. But it's interesting to see that. Congrats on 4 stars btw. I can't stick to a single plan and I'm probably 2 or 3 stars right now with my half-destroyed island XD
lol 4 stars is going to take forever for me. i have so many dropped items
@uneven knot if you're interested, there's a island star guide in the pinned section of this channel! 8 villagers is required for 3 stars, but there are other requirements such as specific amount of unique furniture/flowers/trees etc 🙂
Ahhhhhh ok. Thank you!
Re -doing my market. Love how it’s turning out
i’m trying to do cottage core
What if it rains?!
Progress pictures! That I’m not so sure if I like them or not 😅😭
any ideas on this awkward spot behind the campsite?
She’ll be voided so I set up a little funeral for her 😋💅🏽
lol! who is that?
Judy
why would you void Judy?
More specifically why do you have the demon on your pfp
loool im dead
^^^ don’t void her 🥺
Some people see voiding as an interpretation of "death", ive seen people have graveyards of the villagers they got rid of and its sad and cool at the same time
Anyone wanna share there campsite layout area? I need some inspiration. Would really appreciate it
Hello how I fill my island with objects there are ideas
@opaque jay this is late, but this is my campsite
@opaque jay still a WIP but this is mine so far
