[woven drift]

Abandoned cafe

[clear vale]

Does my entrance look good?
@hearty gull I love it!! I would just add some decor on the path

[hearty gull]

@clear vale What would look good?

[clear vale]

Nova lights, moon chairs, those mushroom umbrella things for sure

[daring sundial]

That looks romantic @woven drift

[woven drift]

@daring sundial aha thank you!! It’s suppose to look abandoned bc of the floor and the dried bamboo chairs

[clear vale]

@hearty gull this in any color!

[calm narwhal]

This is my entrance so far. :) currently considering changing the stool I am sitting on to a black street lamp. Opinions? Also, currently working on adding second and third cliffs to entrance.

[daring sundial]

I like urban exploring so I suppose it would be romantic to me lol

[hearty gull]

@clear vale I have mush parasols other places on my island, but wouldn’t that take up all the room on the path?

[woven drift]

@daring sundial aha yeah I get what you mean tho

[clear vale]

If you put it on the bottom right I don't think it would, i just think the path is too open

[covert summit]

I put Henry near dobie because of the green but I really wanted to add yellow flowers for Henry but I’m hoping it transitions well. I just need a second opinions and if you have any ideas pls let me know

[clear vale]

Rip fragment trees 💀

@misty raft You do?? may i come over? how much do u want

[tidal pebble]

I always get to this point where I try to make what I did better then way overdo it and make it look terrible

[magic fulcrum]

I have this empty space right behind my plaza that I walk through but I want to put some stuff in it. Any ideas?

Ive been thinking maybe just some seats

[covert summit]

@magic fulcrum a seating area would be nice or even reading are with a tiny library or something

[tidal pebble]

Seats are always good

[magic fulcrum]

okay:) lemme go do some crafting

[outer lichen]

do cliffs for a fall themed entrance look good or should i keep it mostly flat?

[zenith dust]

Does anyone have a star gazing area or library behind their museum that I can get inspo from .3.

[whole wind]

i need help how do you add pathways that people have made

[covert summit]

@outer lichen definitely do cliffs, I think they look really good in general

@whole wind you need to have add it to your custom design by going to the able sisters and using the kiosk

[whole wind]

ohh ok thx

[vernal oxide]

My entrance ft Ankha and her adorable self 💕

[outer lichen]

okay cool. i'll try and figure something out. Thanks

[daring sundial]

I cannot wait to get that pumpkin stack

[covert summit]

@outer lichen this is what I did for mine but you can do more if you have more room than me

[barren mesa]

how do you guys decide to put flowers, i am also trying not to get overwhelmed by them. any tips and suggest would be helpful

[daring sundial]

Where are you guys getting these muchrooms? Those look so good

[whole wind]

@covert summit how do i add the code on the kiosk

[outer lichen]

that looks really good. i think i struggle the most when it comes to shaping cliffs

[vernal oxide]

@barren mesa i use mine sporadically. Especially to add colors in areas

[woven drift]

just finished the campsite and nooks cranny area 🥺🥺🥺, i love how the star gazing area turned out

[covert summit]

@whole wind ill dm you

[whole wind]

ok

[nimble smelt]

Is my island entrance good?

[barren mesa]

@vernal oxide is there anyway you can post a few photos? i might be struggling because my island is still a very much work in progress

[covert summit]

@outer lichen i play around with the shape of them till it feels right and it looks good

[whole wind]

brb

[outer lichen]

yeah i'll do that then. thanks a bunch @covert summit

[waxen charm]

thanks @misty raft

[covert summit]

Yw! Good luck @outer lichen

[vernal oxide]

@barren mesa I just showed a picture of my new entrance. These are some old photos! I also used specific colored flowers to go with specific areas.

[barren mesa]

@vernal oxide Thank you!!

[burnt osprey]

Reposting, but I love this carriage it’s so cute😊

[languid iron]

I added more gravestones and blew thru my stockpiles, but I’m happy with how I filled this space. It’s a open area between my villagers houses. So cemetery it is and memory garden.

[nimble smelt]

How can I improve my starting area?

[half peak]

ty for the inspo earlier! this is what I have so far for my beach

[viscid patio]

Wow!

[ashen geyser]

Are we allowed to share other people's designs with credit?

[magic fulcrum]

Pretty satisfied with it! Thanks guys!

[woven drift]

Trees prevent rocks from spawning right?

[ashen geyser]

@woven drift yes

[woven drift]

Sweet. Might be moving my rocks soon

[vernal oxide]

@ashen geyser if it’s to help someone else with inspo, yeah!

[carmine epoch]

@covert summit Did you see the lost item in your third picture, bottom right? Looks like it'd be a pain to get to, but just in case you weren't aware.

[limber ginkgo]

@vernal oxide is there anyway you can post a few photos? i might be struggling because my island is still a very much work in progress
@barren mesa I chose a small handful of flowers and stuck with them. my zodiac/rock garden is exclusively white/gold roses, alien park is just LotV and white hyacinths, campsite is grouping by color (though they're overgrown at this point) and bamboo is pink lilies and green mums, also very overgrown 😅 going to have to cull some flowers after work

[covert summit]

I put it there on purpose lol @carmine epoch

[vernal oxide]

@limber ginkgo still obsessed with your island
All my flowers are slowly being moved to my beach as I redesign my island. I hate it 😂

[ashen geyser]

@limber ginkgo how did you get the aliens? Custom pattern?

[covert summit]

@magic fulcrum that looks super cute 🥰

[limber ginkgo]

@vernal oxide tysm
I wanna get my DA updated once I finish & get Ankha moved in! and yeah moving flowers is such a pain

@limber ginkgo how did you get the aliens? Custom pattern?
@ashen geyser yup, they're on shirt designs. I searched alien in the search terminal to find it

[wheat yacht]

This is a little area I made that leads to my house 😃

[limber ginkgo]

@misty raft Celeste DIY!

[steep light]

Does this look ok? Its not done yet i still need to add flowers and lamps

[carmine epoch]

I put it there on purpose lol @carmine epoch
@covert summit haha, I had no idea that was possible! Well at least you know lol

[ashen geyser]

@misty raft you can visit other people's island for Celeste

[covert summit]

Yeah I just thought it looked cute so I dropped it there @carmine epoch

[ashen geyser]

Yeah if you got it already this season

[spark jay]

I made some nice roads and side walks. If people want them i will make them into codes.

[gilded flame]

can anyone give me ideas for this cottage core beach

[tropic delta]

Judy's house area

[surreal gazelle]

My Halloween themed front yard so far : )

[barren mesa]

anyone have a star gazing spot they love? looking for inspiration

[tropic delta]

Nope srry

[half peak]

my flea market !

[gilded flame]

what is a flea market?

[potent schooner]

A place where people sell all kinds of stuff

[urban sinew]

I like it but prefer it to be more messy

[daring sundial]

what about some blankets with stuff on it too?

[potent schooner]

And different code on the ground not just the same one

But otherwise it looks great!

[austere owl]

what is a flea market?
@gilded flame

[vernal oxide]

@barren mesa I turned Judy’s yard into a stargazing area but I hope it helps with inspo!

[half peak]

@potent schooner I agree ! But I have yet to find one that works well

[urban sinew]

@vernal oxide that is exactly what i did

[potent schooner]

I like that😂

[urban sinew]

You should put the contestants near their build and the judges by the winner

[daring sundial]

Mario sunshine! love it

[urban sinew]

up to you

[woven drift]

@barren mesa dm me!!

[brittle pine]

[gilded flame]

ooooooh

[woven drift]

That looks so nice

Abandoned music area

[night gorge]

This my map rn, any idea how I can extend the river to reach the back? or should I just make a new river at the back?

[austere owl]

I-

[woven drift]

@night gorge I would make a new one and then connect it to the front ones

[night gorge]

Okii, thanks! I’ll just make a new one:)

[odd walrus]

Cocoa tree or no cocoa tree? I know this is so simple but it’s a hard decision 🤷🏼‍♀️

[wind wind]

cocoa tree

[odd walrus]

I just was worried if it looks too “tropical” but I like it too!

[wind wind]

Nah, I think it fits perfectly

[woven drift]

@odd walrus what’s it planting in the first pic

[odd walrus]

Thank you @wind wind and it’s just a custom code @woven drift

[wind wind]

No problem!

[frozen tartan]

where can i get bells

[woven drift]

@odd walrus then yeah do the cocoa tree

[odd walrus]

I am!!!! 🙂 @woven drift

[safe lodge]

I’m about to decorate marinas house! Any ideas?

[odd walrus]

One more question! Empty, or left or right path? I kinda like it empty but I also lightweight want a path!

@safe lodge I recommend doing something like this:
That’s what I did for allll my villagers

[gilded flame]

i am thinking of doing something for norma, what should i do for the yard (its a commun)

[viscid patio]

Flowers or a pool

[sullen crown]

i built sort of a garden/farm thing for marina’s house once @safe lodge

[viscid patio]

Cool

[gilded flame]

where'd you get the windmill or the thing behind it

[sullen crown]

windmill?

[gilded flame]

yeh the tall thing behind marinas house

[sullen crown]

ohh if you’re talking about the silo (the pink and blue tower), it’s a diy recipe you can get from the nook machine

[gilded flame]

oh thank you

[sullen crown]

yee

a before and after of my orchard. i can finally see the ground again 🤡

[gilded flame]

yasss

[viscid patio]

Epic gamer moment

[sullen crown]

yee yee

[woven drift]

It looks so niceee

[outer lichen]

would the default wooden path be good for a fall island? I plan on using the dirt path too

[hybrid gust]

JADIE

[gilded flame]

do you know what path code you got it fro,

[woven drift]

JADIE
@hybrid gust yes

[austere owl]

All the anime pfps are taking me out lmaoao

[woven drift]

🤪

I kinda wanna know what everyone’s most used flower on their islands are

[blissful schooner]

roses, windflowers, and black cosmos

[austere owl]

Cosmos and hyacinths in white

[sullen crown]

cosmos

[woven drift]

Ooooo

[neon glen]

tulips cosmos hyacinths

[austere owl]

Im trying to get rid of my roses

[woven drift]

I use white and black roses and pansies

Im trying to get rid of my roses
@austere owl what kind?

[austere owl]

White roses

[plain forge]

Currently roses, only bc I accidentally let the blue ones clone during a week of Redd farming lol. Hyacinths r my faves tho

[woven drift]

Oooooooo

I find that red and white pansies are the most aesthetically pleasing pansies

[plain forge]

blue ones are cute too

[proven latch]

hey so i have a shop on my island and i need some ideas for my lobby dm me with ideas

[plain forge]

I think the fog might rly be my fav thing in the game next to the 5pm autumn lighting

[austere owl]

Thats spooky as hell🤣

[woven drift]

@misty raft yessss

[delicate sand]

Sooo friends… I’m making one of my houses a spooky house and I need some ideas for the rooms. 👀 The main room looks like a church. The basement will be a dungeon. I kind of want a fortune teller room and a haunted hospital but idk

[outer lichen]

Should I put a pumpkin patch here or does it seem too close to the rc

alright i'll give it a shot

i tried making my entrance spooky as well lol

of the pumpkin patch or entrance?

[potent schooner]

Bigger or smaller custom border?

[proven latch]

hey so i have a shop on my island and i need some ideas for my lobby dm me with ideas

[limber ginkgo]

I think the fog might rly be my fav thing in the game next to the 5pm autumn lighting
@plain forge I only ever had fog once, I might go back to take pics

[outer lichen]

alright, i'll let you know once i'm done @misty raft

[potent schooner]

How do you get fog?

[neat gyro]

I'm really praying they dont add a extra shop because my map is covered in exhibits and custom places

[limber ginkgo]

Completely random, have been playing since launch and my first fog was 2 weeks ago on Sunday morning

[hard kettle]

I completely nuked my island after 1200hours. What's the best map to start with??? Double south rivers or one in the south and one in the west/east?

[plain forge]

@limber ginkgo I believe fog only appears oct-nov in the morning (for north hem at least)

[lapis valley]

I don't think fog is season specific

I'm pretty sure I've had it during summer or spring before

[plain forge]

I think heavy fog is season specific, I might be off on the months but it's def not year round

[neon glen]

i want fogggg

[viscid patio]

It looks sort of empty

[proven latch]

hey so i have a shop on my island idk what to do for the outside and my lobby

[kind grove]

i think there needs to be room for trees and flowers and shrubs

[plain forge]

@proven latch are u talking about nooks and ables or a self built shop

[proven latch]

btw its my own shop not nooks or ables

[viscid patio]

@proven latch what’s kind of shop is it

Asuna add spooky items

Those are great

[proven latch]

my own store where i sell cloths and items for a cheap or market price

[viscid patio]

The entrance should have spooky items

[proven latch]

yeah idk what to do and i still need a new floor and wall for my lobby

[viscid patio]

Idk sorry

[outer lichen]

Here is the start of my pumpkin patch. I’ll add a few more things as I move on

[viscid patio]

Add the spooky scarecrow it’s the best for pumpkin patches

[outer lichen]

alright

[woven drift]

this makes me feel like i havent grown enough pumpkins i only have like 10 pumpkin seeds growing :(

[outer lichen]

i didn't buy enough either honestly

[viscid patio]

My whole family plays on the same acnh island and we each have a pumpkin patch with about 10 pumpkins

But I’m planning to expand mine

[runic granite]

Plz come to my Disney island

[woven drift]

Plz come to my Disney island
@runic granite THAT IS SO COOL

[viscid patio]

@runic granite Star Wars is Disney too so if your making a Disney land island you should add a Star Wars themed part it would EPIC

[upbeat crag]

Put in a little hay maze at the back of my island

[viscid patio]

@upbeat crag you should add a reward at the end of the maze

Or maybe like a statue or something cool at the end

[upbeat crag]

@viscid patio I plan on it. Just deciding what still lol

[viscid patio]

Hmmmm

Maybe have a bunch of gold items and statues and stuff

[upbeat crag]

@viscid patio maybe 👀

[woven drift]

My new spooky graveyard area

I phone 10, I can’t upload the videos I record in the game:(

I’m sorry

[viscid patio]

I have iPhone 11 pro

[vague wolf]

@misty raft on regular switch or switch lite you can record, just hold down that square button on bottom left joycon

[viscid patio]

Yeah but how would you upload it on discord after

[vague wolf]

oh nvm you mean download. connect to a throwaway twitter account or microsd card

[woven drift]

Yeah it’s a lot of extra work

Lady Gaga made a music video on iPhone 11

[desert geyser]

@honest egret

[honest egret]

[neat gyro]

I think my layout is pretty open

All my sidewalks are 2×2

[honest egret]

[neat gyro]

I'm just happy nintendo finally added viewable paths

You get them from may day

[desert geyser]

[covert summit]

Henry’s place

[ionic linden]

Does anyone have an idea of how I could decorate for Tex´s bday he is my favorite villager

[daring sundial]

woah thats so pretty

@ionic linden What kind of ideas are you looking for? I know you can buy balloons and you can use codes to make cake

you could do a custom happy birthday sign too

And maybe set up a dj booth, dance floor, buffet of food, etc

[ionic linden]

@daring sundial yeah thats what I think im going to do the problem his house is surrounded by about 75 flowers

[daring sundial]

do you have a plaza to host it in?

or maybe a beach party

[ionic linden]

Ooh I might just make a plaza for the party

[winter kernel]

WIP but a forest area I'm working on!

[daring sundial]

How do you get those glowy ones? I love those

[winter kernel]

ohh which ones

the mushroom or the hyacinth

[daring sundial]

is that a flower?

the flower

[winter kernel]

it's a diy!

you need picked purple hyacinth flowers and some clay

[rustic rover]

@covert summit sorry I'm late to see it, it's an amazing area! Henry is one of my top 3 fave villagers

[covert summit]

@rustic rover thank you! He moved in today, super happy to have him on my island

[golden nest]

Just took this pic. Quite happy with how this area turned out!

[woven drift]

Cuteeee

[hot silo]

Whitney seems to like my new entrance 🥺

[willow crater]

mine is ugly

[covert summit]

@golden nest so pretty, giving me fairy garden vibes

[willow crater]

still

[outer lichen]

my entrance is spoopy

[paper tendon]

can anyone show their entrance close to plaza still having issues with mine ;-;

[median nymph]

I'm so excited for this weekend. I'm gearing up for the fishing tourney by setting up a pop up bait shop! I think it looks cute!

[lapis panther]

It does look cute omg 😭 💗

[spark merlin]

Not too happy with how the jungle flows into the little carnival dock. The colored panels look festive but may be too loud and too stark from the jungle, the lattice and leaves are more subdued and helps the flow while making the white stalls pop? What do you guys think? Or should I just use a darker color scheme as a whole?

[woven drift]

Can I see campsite inspiration pls

[mental cipher]

Any entrance ideas? My island is gonna be a sci-fi theme

[brave bay]

@spark merlin try finding a white/light brown lattice vine pattern for the panels! It’ll match the stalls/floor better 🙂

[calm narwhal]

My entrance is finally done! And I am so proud of how it turned out!

[outer lichen]

that looks sick

[zinc fog]

Ugh that’s so cool omg

I literally just got the game and can’t wait for my island to slap

[severe raptor]

good luck @zinc fog !

[zinc fog]

Any advice would be greatly appreciated

[severe raptor]

hm. it's late, and i'm sleepy, but i'll gladly compile a list of small tips for tomorrow to dm you if you want

[viscid patio]

Hey I made an Italian restaurant on my island and I don’t know what to add to it do you guys have any Italian restaurant ideas

Stalls?

Wdym

[knotty peak]

Anyone have any ideas for this tiny space between my cliff and park/garden?

My town is european inspired so anything of that sorts would be amazing

[woven drift]

https://gamewith.net/animal-crossing-new-horizons/article/show/17195 @viscid patio

@knotty peak maybe do a sitting area with some stalls?

So it can be a tiny food marketplace

[blissful schooner]

WIP but molly’s yard is coming along

[viscid patio]

Nice

[blissful schooner]

i wanted to add a pond since shes a duck, but i also like the red leaves where they are

[woven drift]

@blissful schooner maybe instead of a pond you can add a plastic pool

[viscid patio]

Is this nice?

[blissful schooner]

hmm thats a bit too cutesy for my island theme but i could consider it?

[woven drift]

So you can still have both

@viscid patio that looks amazing!!

[viscid patio]

Thanks

[woven drift]

@blissful schooner what’s your island theme?

[blissful schooner]

its a mystical forest, with a few town areas like a magic academy and a market and stuff

so while im okay with cutesty more cottage-core areas i dont want like super modern stuff

[woven drift]

That’s true

[blissful schooner]

i could do the frog stone pond?

i may experiment with what fits since she has a big yard

[woven drift]

Yeah just experiment with what fits what

[solar light]

anyone know of any forest inspired layouts? w pics pls

[rose onyx]

Hello everyone. Let me explain: I am doing some work on my island, and since I have no inspiration, I would like to see the photos of your map if possible. Could you share them with me please? I'm looking for ideas 🎃

[woven drift]

Tips on how I can make my zen garden even better?
@arctic hull paper lanterns. maybe bamboo around the borders of it

[tidal pebble]

A stone path would look nice even just one design spread out a bit

[cedar mountain]

Heii... do u guys have any tips to terraform a cottagecore Island?

[tidal pebble]

A little layout inspo never hurts

[clear vale]

A little layout inspo never hurts
@tidal pebble what do those flower path type things look like in C5-D5?

[tidal pebble]

I get a pic

Put me in zen mode making them

[clear vale]

Whoa that gives me so many ideas

[tidal pebble]

Oh good!!!

[woven drift]

same

But doesnt really match my theme

[clear vale]

I have cottagecore/fall so it matches perfectly :D

[woven drift]

mine doesnt suit any theme tbh

[tidal pebble]

I like the way they show up on the map I don’t like open green space. Which why I had dirt path under my design pathways

I have cottagecore/fall so it matches perfectly :D
@clear vale
Oh it should look nice!

If you happen to visit my island is no where near done buuuut what is done looks nice 😂

[woven drift]

I wanna make a lake but..

theres no space

[clear vale]

Lakes look so good but take up so much space

[woven drift]

Twiggy was just facing the corner

..?

Idek if shes ok

[pseudo ledge]

Does anybody have a list of furniture that looks good on a cottagecore island?

[woven drift]

garden bench?

[tidal pebble]

They really need to implement a “flower-be-gone” kind like the stuff for weeds but for flowers 😂

[pseudo ledge]

oh yeah, garden benches work great

[clear vale]

I would love a list for ideas, I just know log furniture and log stakes look great

[woven drift]

I dont have online tho

[pseudo ledge]

I have a garden bench outside my pumpkin patch and it’s g o l d

Not literally

[stable adder]

for my entrance i have a lecture hall bench and a park clock

looks pretty good in the style

[dusty fjord]

@pseudo ledge i dont have a list, but i would say all the wooden items and stone items, just things that look natural

Wooden DIYs, Stone DIYs, bamboo stuff, garden wagon, clothesline, all kind of flower decoration like mossball, mini cactus etc

[stable adder]

Also the classic pitcher customized

[pseudo ledge]

@dusty fjord Thanks for the advice! I can add those things

[dusty fjord]

These items here for example

[stable adder]

the pitcher 😍

[pseudo ledge]

Ohh, that looks great

[clear vale]

Omg i didn't know that pot could look so good customized

Oh to have the hyacinth lamp diy 😔

[stable adder]

I have DIY for the garden wheelbarrow

[pseudo ledge]

I can make a lot of that stuff

So yay

[sudden grail]

i wish for the log table....

the round one..... i love the log diys and only have he bench, stool, stakes

but they use SO musch hardwood...

[stable adder]

yep

[pseudo ledge]

Nice person gave me the tea table DIY

[clear vale]

[pseudo ledge]

For the time being, I’m going for Halloween cottagecore

This is what I have right now

The spooky tower really works great, so I love using it

[primal tartan]

hi! i just got my dear tipper do you have any inspo for her yard? thank you!

[woven drift]

Looking for cozy cottage core style items dm me. Willing to pay anything!

Also selling these DIYS!

[thick vapor]

Any ideas what to do with this little corner behind Walker's house? There's a cemetery above so putting in an amusement park would feel wrong. 😂

[brazen horizon]

lmao I thought this place was for showing off our islands not selling stuff

[steep rose]

@thick vapor an amusement park would be funny tho

[humble needle]

t. sizes

Anyone have a grid view of the island with dimensions

[tidal pebble]

Like the map?

[wide wraith]

Any ideas what to do with this little corner behind Walker's house? There's a cemetery above so putting in an amusement park would feel wrong. 😂
@thick vapor
maybe you could put like a little pond and some garden benches

[prime harbor]

guys anyone put their house close to the entrance or plaza 😮 ! looking for inspo 🙂

[nova vale]

A little duck pond could look nice

peaceful

[humble needle]

what are the dimensions of the airport?

[neon glen]

@humble needle i'm not sure what u mean. do u mean the airport walkway? if so, that's 2 tiles. i'd imagine the airport dimensions wouldn't matter bc you cant move it anyway

[humble needle]

I'm trying to make a physical map to plan my island on grid paper

[foggy hound]

My Halloween store 😌 Let me know any improvement ideas y’all have

[nocturne thicket]

Luckys and Annkhas house (it’s an oasis) 😉

Puts my attempt i just done for 2 houses to shame XD

Yw :)

[nocturne thicket]

Hahahah

[tidal pebble]

I love doing my yards!

[neon glen]

@tidal pebble what's the code to those stairs? :0

[tidal pebble]

@neon glen

[humble needle]

btw if anyone ever needs it the plaza is 10x12

[tidal pebble]

Unless you wanted the wood starter which I can’t find the code for 😭

[neon glen]

tysm!!!

[steep ibex]

My updated pumpkin patch! Feel free to leave some suggestions! Please @me in case of a response

[neon glen]

no it's ok !! i wanted the stone stairs

[tidal pebble]

Oh good 😊

[coral siren]

Where should I put the pumpkins? I currently have them in front of Able's but don't want them there anywhere. My island is still freed up

[earnest moon]

Im trying to remodelate the entrance to my museum, does anyone have any suggestions?

[humble needle]

Does anyone have an island layout where both the river streams exit at the bottom? 😅
@earnest pulsar I do, why

[cedar mountain]

Which stairs do u recommend for a cottagecore Island?

[woven drift]

Which stairs do u recommend for a cottagecore Island?
@cedar mountain log stairs are what I used during my cottage core island phase

[humble needle]

I'm currently mapping out my plan physically lol

[hardy lance]

joining in on the pumpkin patch trend.

[woven drift]

anybody have any advice on what i could fill the sides of res service with?
It just feels empty to me 😔

[hardy lance]

STALLS! esp if you have a dream address it'd be a great place to put the tools/clothes your dream visitors could take. and given you're already making it Halloweeny, probably like pumpkin or candy stalls

[compact umbra]

I need help in designing my island. I did stuff to it and I really don't like how it turned out and now I need some ideas on what I should do

[coarse crater]

Finally got ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🥳🥳🥳

[errant otter]

@coarse crater WAHOOO! Congrats!

[hardy lance]

now fill it up with dropped items and drop your rating back down to ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for aesthetics!

[coarse crater]

Omg IKR. I had to pick up stuff to get it XD Best part is half my island is a mess of flowers

[nimble smelt]

My town hall is so bland. What could I fix about it?

[silver sorrel]

I kinda like it ngl, i think it just needs some stuff around it, like cliffs or a river just to add a bit of scenery

also check the bulletin board lmao

[neon glen]

birbs

[manic sigil]

omg so many new messages

[solemn fulcrum]

I want halloween costumes how do I get them

[flat lily]

@solemn fulcrum You can check in #694794156697976934 or in #clothing-trade ! Or if you're wanting clothing design codes, you can scroll through #clothing-codes

[solemn fulcrum]

Im in the early stages like I don’t have Able sisters yet

[flat lily]

If you don't have them, you can probably find them in #clothing-trade and #694794156697976934 to get them from other people. This channel is for sharing island layouts

[unkempt crypt]

How do you guys like my entrance so far? Don't pay attention to the map (Island is being redone)

[silver sorrel]

i dig it

[rare jewel]

ok

[neon glen]

@nimble smelt u probs just need to add more things to it. i decorated mine w trees and fences, the left of town hall is my market area and the right to my town hall is my cafe street

[flint obsidian]

Do anybody have a market and their island that they can post.(I need examples)

[paper path]

@flint obsidian try use the search bar

[unkempt crypt]

Well yeah im going for a forest theme Im also looking for mushroom diys to help make it look nicer and, I only started the entrance lol. Little by little it will progress

[paper path]

got a tiny bit of room here in front of nooks any idea what i could do?

[outer lichen]

@unkempt crypt i'm also going for a nice forest theme. good luck to you

[woven drift]

got a tiny bit of room here in front of nooks any idea what i could do?
@paper path maybe add more of that wood on the ground (I forgot the name) add benches and fencing

[paper path]

@woven drift ty ill play around and see how it goes

[woven drift]

@woven drift ty ill play around and see how it goes
@paper path Okie

[plain forge]

One of my favs areas 🦌

[woven drift]

Does anyone else not have a special entrance to their island?

[outer lichen]

hm, do small cliffs look nice in front of the resident services?

[paper path]

@outer lichen i have a small bit there but i’m not sure what it would like covering the full thing

[outer lichen]

ah okay. i was looking at doing something similar to what you have, like in the corners of the plaza. thanks for the reference pic

[paper path]

no problem!

[outer lichen]

cliffs are usually a problem for me cause i want a fall/forest theme, but i don't want to go too crazy and end up with cottagecore

[bitter inlet]

what’s the difference from cottagecore and a fall/forest theme @outer lichen

[outer lichen]

are you asking for my personal opinion or just in general?

[bitter inlet]

either?

[storm bluff]

@outer lichen i think terraforming for both forest + cottagecore are similar if not exactly the same. they're both based off more natural landscapes. what makes them different is how you use paths and how you decorate your areas in my opinion

[kind seal]

Any one have a good villager layout

[outer lichen]

uhhh well that curved path is usually a pretty big indicator and decorating cliffs with items such as the mushrooms and other items with an outdoorsy vibe

i'm not hating on cottagecore or anything, it's just not my style. I know it's pretty similar to a forest theme though

[storm bluff]

@outer lichen doesnt seem like you're hating at all !! my island is super foresty and natural, definitely not cottagecore lol

[outer lichen]

okay good. i didn't want to seem too rash lol. I've only completed my entrance so i've got a ways to go

[silver sorrel]

to me cottagecore is a more artificial forest with an emphasis on furninture while foresty towns are more nature oriented

[outer lichen]

i'd love to visit or see some reference pictures sometime! Sounds like it could be a big help, if you're cool with that @storm bluff

[storm bluff]

@outer lichen if it helps, my RS is surrounded by cliffs! i added another small one at the bottom left of RS that isnt seen on the map. it’s hard to take photos of but my DA is there if you’re interested~

[outer lichen]

awesome i'll definitely check that out. the map already looks really promising! @storm bluff

ohhh and you have coco! I've been trying to find her, but i eventually gave up

[cedar snow]

My perfectly normal house

[static tusk]

Hello

[cedar snow]

I see nothing wrong with where my house is compared to the arch and bridge

[gaunt bison]

what should i do with june’s home?

[opaque vigil]

i made a video to show off my island. you can watch if you like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NYXjC8YXEPE

[safe lodge]

What should I put in this area

[storm bluff]

@outer lichen she was my first normal!! i still have the default normal interior haha, i dont have the heart to let her go

@gaunt bison ooo maybe put some sand paths down around her house and plant some palm trees? the shell lamps are already such a nice touch ♡

[zealous gust]

My little home near the beach

[safe lodge]

That’s so pretty woahh

[barren mesa]

Does horizontal or vertical look better?

[sharp hull]

Horizontal imo

[night creek]

Horizontal!!

[barren mesa]

Thank you

[sour kelp]

[lusty radish]

[gaunt bison]

@gaunt bison ooo maybe put some sand paths down around her house and plant some palm trees? the shell lamps are already such a nice touch ♡
@storm bluff this is what i did :))

[nimble smelt]

I love that board walk pattern you have lol

[gaunt bison]

thank you!

[outer lichen]

Just finished visiting your island @storm bluff It was super nice and I think I got some good inspiration. Thanks a bunch!

[storm bluff]

@outer lichen ahh thank you so much! i hope it helped 🥰

[outer lichen]

I'm always blown away when people can create such natural looking cliffs. And you were right, Yours is much more of a forest vibe

[versed wadi]

Cliff building was the highlight of the game for me

[outer lichen]

yeah they look so satisfying when they're done

[clear vale]

Why past tense?

past tense as my cliffs are all pretty much final now

[warm marten]

oh i didnt mean how to terraform 👉👈 i meant the specific setup

but thank you i think i got it

[sour sluice]

I put my museum on a medium sized island and it has a large amount of space on both left and right sides. Besides fossils, anyone have ideas that could go there? I already have a cafe next to the island

[clear vale]

oh i didnt mean how to terraform 👉👈 i meant the specific setup
@warm marten I have a similar one and I think the base is a 2 block wide 10 block cross and the slant to each is 4 blocks

[alpine smelt]

If you would like a haunted tour please come to my island now!!

My dodo code is :4568P for any haunted inspiration

[clear vale]

@warm marten like this if it makes any sense

[woven drift]

What can I put on the left hill??

[jovial verge]

Terraform

[cloud iron]

I decided instead of a generic beach or forest camp set up I wanted a science camp next to my museum

[woven drift]

I like it

[jovial verge]

Cool

[warm marten]

does this look centered to you guys?

[jovial verge]

The pond is centered

But the right side looks a bit shorter

[warm marten]

i know it really does but i dont think it is

[jovial verge]

Maybe it’s the way you’re sitting

[cloud iron]

One side has more tiles. It’s centered to the path tho

[warm marten]

i think its just the perspective that or i just cant figure it out

[cloud iron]

Oh. No yeah it’s the angle of the picture you’re good

[warm marten]

yeah the map helps me out i hate that it just doesnt look centered at first

[thorn dirge]

Everyone is so good at designing/terraforming their islands. I would try but I'm afraid of messing it up. It inspires me when I see are the creations, too afraid to act on it.

[stark cobalt]

dobie at my entrance (:

[odd walrus]

Has anyone attempted to make this? I’m kinda in the process lolol

[gaunt bison]

just me and coco 💘💘

[pine geyser]

@odd walrus yes something similar

[odd walrus]

@pine geyser how did u go about it? Do you have any pics? 😊

[pine geyser]

@odd walrus here you go. I didn’t have much space to work with but it worked

[odd walrus]

@pine geyser ty! I’ll post some pics when it’s done! I’m thinking going a little bigger 🤣 not as much water gap tho I think

[sinful thicket]

can someone pls tell me how you can film on the switch

like record a video

[pine geyser]

@odd walrus yeah I couldn’t decide how big of a water gap I should have. Im redoing most of my island so might change it again

[odd walrus]

@pine geyser yeah it’s kinda tricky! I like how it looks I’m the original one I saw but honestly it’s hard kinda and frustrating but I’m sure it’ll be worth it in the end! And heck yeah good luck!!!! I have a few more areas to do and I’m finally done after remodeling my island for like months 🤣

@sinful thicket u hold down the button that you would normally take a picture with and yeah 🤗

[sinful thicket]

thx

[covert summit]

I wanna make a new entrance. I need some ideas please. I also need beach area ideas. I have a few sections of my beach that are cute but lots of empty space still.

[sour kelp]

also guys, how do you deal with flowers? obviously I try to keep as much different kinds as possible around, so I can craft and stuff, but wherever I put them it just looks so ugly lol

[paper path]

anyone know what lighting i could use outside in my cottagecore theme?

@biancalovexo#1048 this is my entrance

[leaden vortex]

Is there a landscape services thread? I need help clearing and organizing trees. I can offer NMT or Bells 😫

[odd walrus]

Bottom one for sure! unless you plan on decorating right there @barren shadow

[vernal oxide]

@frosty fjord try using #flower-plants-trade. You’ll have to get the trade role from #721542917264638002 !

redid my island into a zen theme, not sure how i feel about it yet 😬 need more inspo

[coral creek]

Feeling pretty proud of my pumpkin patch area, just thought I’d share

[pseudo ledge]

Wow, it looks great!

So quick question- where do you enter the codes for sign and rug designs? And I’m in need of some nice rug designs, so does anybody have some?

[coral creek]

Thank you! Also you enter them at Able’s

[pseudo ledge]

Thanks, you’re a lifesaver

[pseudo ledge]

Oh my god. I LOVE IT

So as I said... does anybody have some nice rug codes?

[inner surge]

Till death do us part 💔💍

[knotty peak]

I need an opinion on something. I have a european inspired-ish town but im going back and fourth on the pathing. Do you think the stone arched path or just the normal stone path is more european?

im using the regular stone path rn because i feel like it gives off a more cozy village feel, rather than the arched one which feels more fancy idk

[sly verge]

I did stepping stones for my town. Idk if that's European tho

I feel like the regular stone path would work as it looks more historical too

[void verge]

WIP mountain... still need more termite mounds T-T

[silver sorrel]

Thats dope, trying to do a similar thing on my island to make a volcano, but the lack of termite mounds is unfortunate

[void verge]

I have two mountains with a bridge in between so double the termite mounds 😵

[wheat glacier]

Anybody have any ideas on what I should put in the brick patch?

[pseudo ledge]

My new cottagecore picnic area💙 The rug pattern isn’t mine! (My idiot self lost the creator code already, but I’m trying to find it already so please don’t give me another sting)

Thanks!

[pseudo ledge]

Trying to build 'fake buildings' for my marketplace, but idk if I'm doing it right xD
@fast vale Hmm... looks good, considering the limitations. You could also move some of your villagers’ houses near the area, but that costs quite a few bells

[fast vale]

@pseudo ledge Yeah, most of my villagers have a spot already. :/ Maybe I'll try placing more panels all the way around, so that it looks a little better.

[woven dew]

Trying to make this area a bit less naff, it’s two 2x6 spaces - any suggestions super appreciated, preferably item/theme based rather than just adding more water/terraforming🥰❤️

[pseudo ledge]

Any ideas on how I should decorate these houses? I have minimal space, unfortunately

[wheat glacier]

Flowers, bushes, and fences

and maybe bits of furniture based on the villagers personality

[violet wigeon]

I was bouta say that 😂

[wheat glacier]

lol

[desert geyser]

quick question, what path should i use for a little campsite?

[wheat glacier]

dark dirt

[desert geyser]

like this?

[wheat glacier]

yeah

[desert geyser]

oki thx

[wheat glacier]

except maybe a custom path that is mainly a path

[clear vale]

I just got vesta and now my island will be even spookier ☆

[woven drift]

Any suggestions on how to make my island a tad less messy? I wanna keep my entrance, grave yard (upper left to my town hall) and probably at least one of the heart ponds and I'm a tad bit iffy on moving my moon lake but besides that I'm okay with moving anything else!

[violet wigeon]

Maybe just a lil less water and paths in general?

[woven drift]

Less paths and water?

[barren mesa]

i am trying to make my entrance, can any one share the entrance so i can get some inspiration

[violet wigeon]

@woven drift , maybe somthing like this?
💚 = grass
💙 = water
Tan = path

[woven drift]

Ooh maybe! Tysm!

[violet wigeon]

Yw!

[pseudo ledge]

Okay, so I took you guys’ advice, and designed this little spot between Francine and Amelia’s houses. They’re both snooty villagers, so I thought they’d appreciate a little spot to wash their clothes.

[spring knot]

finally terraformed my entrance, map looking cute i think

[pseudo ledge]

Yes

[desert geyser]

i just made a little campsite

can anybody come to my island for some feedback?

[pseudo ledge]

You can always send a pic

[desert geyser]

i dont have a phone rn

[pseudo ledge]

O

[desert geyser]

nor a camera

lol

[final plank]

Can someone help me with a layout !!! For my island I have to no clue what to do !!??

[vernal oxide]

@desert geyser i think you can take a pic from your switch, upload to fb or twitter, save it to your computer and then share it here

[woven drift]

i finally decided to download some path codes but now i have to say goodbye to my brockhampton mural 😭😭

Can I get some feedback on this cliff I just built? Kinda my first time getting into cliffs. I plan on adding trees once I’m happy with it.

[desert geyser]

i like it

[outer lichen]

thanks! I was kinda nervous cause I don't usually try too hard on my cliffs, but i wanted to do something different

[lime frost]

Any ideas on how to make this haunted mansion look more realistic?

[storm bluff]

@outer lichen looks good! excited to see how you decorate~

[silver sorrel]

@lime frost add some darker colored furniture in the back, like antique wardrobes turned around, or maybe a wedding organ in the center between the two silos, it looks really good though

[outer lichen]

Thanks! I'm starting to feel more confident in it now lol

just taking it one step at a time

[lime frost]

Ooh I didn’t think about the antique wardrobes! @silver sorrel

[iron pulsar]

@bleak portal i have a spa but its not on the beach

[bleak portal]

@woven drift Id love to see it

[woven drift]

Ok i need to turn my game back on

[neon glen]

going to be tearing down the left side and redoing it a bit but for now i’m happy w the changes ! im most done redoing the right side

[woven drift]

Hey guys, i have four empty corners by my entrance on either side of the ramps there.. what should I put there?! It doesnt have to be halloween theme!

[prime harbor]

@neon glen it's gorgeous ! it's really fits the style i'm going for my island 🙂

[woven drift]

@bleak portal

[prime harbor]

anyone has their house close to the entrance / plaza 😮 ?

[neon glen]

tysm !!

my house is rly close.. to the right is the entrance

[bleak portal]

Ooo that has a really fun paris city vibe

[prime harbor]

@neon glen do you have a dream address I would love to visit. You seem to have the same aesthetic that I want to achieve 🙂

[neon glen]

@prime harbor not yet !! 😭 my town isnt done

[woven drift]

Trying to build an alleyway, what do y’all think

[urban sinew]

I think less stalls and more trash and skecthy things

[woven drift]

Yah I want to spread the stalls out more

Wasn’t sure what else to put though

[jovial verge]

Sorry to bother @iron pulsar but In that picture what diy is that large Star fragment

[urban sinew]

Put bug toys on the ground

[woven drift]

I do have a few of those left

[urban sinew]

i did that with my alley

[woven drift]

I have some smaller alleys but they aren’t as elaborate

[neon glen]

@woven drift add scattered papers, trash bags, oil barrels, maybe a wooden sign customized to the caution sign

[woven drift]

@neon glen i have enough oil barrels on my island

Looks better so far

I’m going to order the other kind of bins as well

@urban sinew what do you think

[grim bolt]

caught pinky eating a donut by the secret beach 🥺

[iron pulsar]

@jovial verge lol you r def not bothering me, thank you for asking! it is called a nova light diy! i hope this helps :))

[jovial verge]

Thx

[woven drift]

@jovial verge i think I have some spare ones made if you want them

[vernal oxide]

@bleak portal I made a nail salon using the mermaid furniture if it helps!

[kind egret]

does anyone have any good trading areas? i wanna have a spot for trading and such, but i dont know what to do. . .

[prime harbor]

anyone has kinda of a tiny urban garden

Something like this

[zenith dust]

Need inspo for a cute campsite ,3, preferably fairycore

[vernal oxide]

Adding little by little but I looove it. So spoopy

[dusky wave]

This is my small library, what can i do to improve it?

[icy juniper]

@dusky wave more clutter or small decorations. maybe a rug too? what ever you think looks cute :)

[glass kestrel]

does anyone have any ideas on how to decorate an entrance with an island that has residents service super close and not aligned to the airport ? i’m gonna change my entire island to redecorate/terraform to match my halloween/autumn theme

[barren mesa]

@dusky wave maybe some scattered papers

[void verge]

Diagonal bridges usually look good with a close resident services

[glass kestrel]

Diagonal bridges usually look good with a close residence services
@void verge thank you !! do you have any photos or references since i’m not entirely sure how i’d do it (: !

[void verge]

I dont have any photos but im sure theres youtube tutorials on how to decorate areas with a close resident services that include a diagonal bridge ^^

[prime harbor]

@glass kestrel what bout this 🙂

[glass kestrel]

thank you sm !!!

[bleak portal]

https://youtu.be/QbiMWZTUefU

[prime harbor]

Guys i'm working on a new entrance and i'm not sure what to do in the upper corners left and right where the 6 trees are just n front of the plaza

[polar raft]

Need a lot of help/ feedback on what to do with my island. I definitely want like a cafe and maybe an carnival/arcade somewhere but idk. I’m stressing myself

• 🧡-Where I want to move my campsite
• 💙-Flower garden
  Feel free to DM me

[umbral lodge]

How would you rate my island entrance ¿

[vernal oxide]

@polar raft you could always do a beach cafe!

[real tapir]

@prime harbor a picnic area would be super cute!

[polar raft]

@vernal oxide Tysm. Do you have any other ideas because I have some decor on my island but the majority of it is blank

[twin spindle]

@vernal oxide woah! Thay's a cool path!

[red pier]

hey yall does anyone have a pumpkin patch idea thingy

[woven drift]

My island looks like trash compared to these

[dusky wave]

@umbral lodge i loveeeeee!

[vernal oxide]

@polar raft you can kind of place it anywhere tbh. I always like having seating sort of areas in between different types of areas. I also even put a small cafe with my library so that could also be an option!

[dusky wave]

Guys how can i improve my pumpkin patch/ pumpkin carving area?

[woven drift]

Looking to rearrange my island into a large city, what fencing would be best?

sitches and frank's shared clifftop 🍓

[lusty radish]

love it

[polar raft]

@vernal oxide Tysm

[icy flint]

@dusky wave sorry for the late message but imo for the pumpkin area maybe spread out the harvest so you can be able to walk without stepping on them? Small spot but I feel like it’s pretty good with what you have maybe suggest an apple tree next to it?

@woven drift for a city theme I’d suggest adding simple panels with designs such as windows or walls to cover up more space

[dusky wave]

@icy flint thank you

[dusky echo]

I’m struggling to choose between these paths. I want to like the top one, but I still think I like the bottom. Help? 😩

[limber ginkgo]

I’m struggling to choose between these paths. I want to like the top one, but I still think I like the bottom. Help? 😩
@dusky echo I like the bottom one too

[ionic dragon]

I like the top one!

[dusky echo]

I think the top is so pretty! Def my favorite off the ground lol But I feel like it’s too much. Idk 😩 maybe I have to sleep on it.

[tidal wyvern]

bottom, it matches the color scheme you’re going for.

[midnight dawn]

Before shot!

After! A abandoned train track!

Let’s throw in a map update too

[old jetty]

I’m remodeling parts of my island, I’m not sure what to do with it, any advice?

[faint cairn]

In the bottom right of my map I have a huge spot of land idk what to do with. I have plans for a cafe, a cemetery, my orchard, a zen garden and a park for the residential area. The bottom right and top right are empty and need love. Any ideas?

Dms welcome

[urban sinew]

@woven drift Sorry for not responding but it looks goodd

[woven drift]

I need help with my whole island really, it doesn’t quite have the feel I’m going for

[rich thicket]

I'm looking for help with able sister decor inspo with a forest theme if anyone have any?

[woven drift]

oh this is nice

but i need stuff for camp site and rest but i have nooks crany abel sisters and musiem were i whant them

and I LOOKED EXICTLY LIKE THAT FOR HOLWEIN EVENT

[split void]

Hey does anyone have one of those islands thay look like one of those simple Japanese residential areas? And would anyone mind if I toured it? I love the look of them

[tired ravine]

Any tips on what to put for my entrance?

[split void]

Oh I would recommend staircases and flowers, maybe stone arches or something like that

Also water!

[limber ginkgo]

I wonder who's moving in

[bitter acorn]

this is my information centre in front of resident services! what can i do to improve it?

[tired ravine]

I was thinking about putting a stone arch right when you walk onto my island but I'm not sure of where to put the staircase and water

[split void]

@tired ravine I would put the stone arch in the center, and then on either side put the staircases and water going in a circle around it

[gaunt bison]

what should i put for decoration here for my bakery?

[iron pulsar]

what do u guys think of this cafe/juice bar by my fruit orchard?

[tight abyss]

OKAY HII!!! So basically I want a cottage core and really cool island and uh i am in the process of making rivers and cool mountains so does anyone have advice as to how I should do it and like where? I want my island to be barricaded with fountains and stuff like that but its so nakey right now

[rich sail]

Not done but I’m happy, is the same colour scheme in different areas too much?

[iron pulsar]

lol @tight abyss we’ve all been there!! idk if this will help u or give you inspo but here is my islands map, i’m trying to keep all the landscaping the way it is (ignore the weird house layout)

[tight abyss]

@iron pulsar tysm wkskskskens okay! I see your island format.. i want a lot of water but like at the same time i dont? Honestly I am not sure what I want but i’ll be sure to frequently post here for advice. I appreciate your help and the image of your island map! I do have a couple of ideas :-)!

[woven drift]

I’m unsure if I like this, what could I do differently?

[iron pulsar]

@tight abyss ok ok- what if, you did a lake- in the middle- (or somewhere) on your island??? and then like trees surrounding it and stuff to make it all cottage-corey? i think that’d be sooo cool but it’s totally your opinion and your island 😎 also btw feel free to dm me if u ever need help with your island, i can help u out!

[rich sail]

@ mike Have a second cliff to put stalls onto as well so it gives it more height? Also there’s the climbing walls you could use the behind of the plain one to add a little height without having to add another cliff

[woven drift]

There is a cliff behind it, I’m just unsure about putting the stalls in front of the panels

[iron pulsar]

@ mike Have a second cliff to put stalls onto as well so it gives it more height? Also there’s the climbing walls you could use the behind of the plain one to add a little height without having to add another cliff
@rich sail that’s such a good idea oml 😨

[rich sail]

If you put the same panels on the upper cliff you’ll be able to see them n it’ll add extra height too!

@oak tanglemeadows thank you!!

So they’ll look like more realistic buildings

[iron pulsar]

There is a cliff behind it, I’m just unsure about putting the stalls in front of the panels
@woven drift omg what if you used the cliff, and then, added two levels of panels and changed them all to like windows so it looks like a building!??? does that make any sense 🤭😓

[rich sail]

Yesssss

[woven drift]

Yah I just saved some roof designs for the upper level

[tight abyss]

@iron pulsar oooh! I like that! I was thinking maybe i could have water leading up to this like big lake thats covered in trees and mushrooms! I will also like add a whole bunch of mountains to make it hidden you know? Okay have you like seen the background of uh.. whats that dude? The one who like takes pictures?..? Harvy? I dont hecking know but he has a foresty vibe behind his house and i adore it

[rich sail]

You could do a lake in the middle with a crescent moon island in the centre where you could do a rock circle or something in the middle Idk if that’s too fairycore or not though

N like the villager houses surrounding it

[iron pulsar]

@iron pulsar oooh! I like that! I was thinking maybe i could have water leading up to this like big lake thats covered in trees and mushrooms!

@tight abyss that’s such a good idea omgggg and yes it is harvey- ahh my island is so trashy compared to all of yours 😭😭

[craggy junco]

the Cottagecore cheat-sheet (for those in need)

[tight abyss]

Omg i love you

[iron pulsar]

that’s soooo cute omg 😍

[rich sail]

Is there a fairycore one too? @exotic onyx LOL

[craggy junco]

I saw one on twitter, let me check

[rich sail]

Thank you!!

[iron pulsar]

OH PLEASSSE mine is fairycore 😍

[woven drift]

Is there a cheat sheet for city as well?

[rich sail]

Omg can I come to your island sometime 😭😭 LOL

Honestly they have some awesome city dream addresses you could check out to steal ideas from 😂

[iron pulsar]

LOL

[tight abyss]

I literally love all of you guys what the heck this is so amazing 🥺

[woven drift]

Honestly they have some awesome city dream addresses you could check out to steal ideas from 😂
@rich sail i have visited many, its implementation of the ideas on my island that aren’t going well

[iron pulsar]

ikr 🥰🥰 can y’all accept my friend requests

[woven drift]

With a roof, what do yall think

[iron pulsar]

OML- we should all play animal crossing together sometime

[tight abyss]

Boutta go to harvs island so i can steal his island ideas 😼

[craggy junco]

Soo I don't have the post anymore but on this one you see basic fairycore stuff like:
mushrooms / mush items, white and pink hyacinths, lamps, white items, flower/shimmer custom paths, gnomes, bug (butterfly) models, etc etc (and obviously statues)

oh my god that is beautiful, my fairycore island does not compare to that at all 😭😢😩

[craggy junco]

it's cute!

there's always room and time for improvement, the more you do the more you learn

[iron pulsar]

tyyy is there anything i should add?

[rich sail]

Sorry @mike you could do a forced perspective with fake apartments/a city on rocks maybe or somewhere where there is a view. Idek what the thing on the bottom right is but it looks like apartments with the lights on from far away

Thank you omg moonlight is so pretty

[craggy junco]

the server you mean?

[neon glen]

@iron pulsar if you're doing a fairycore island, i think you could make the paths less straight and more winding

[woven drift]

Yah I’m trying to avoid using the servers, they are expensive

[plain forge]

@tight abyss my island isn't cottagecore but I have natural looking rivers and lots of cliffs and pathways between cliffs (typical of cottagecore) if it helps you any~ get custom codes (such as "The Path") to make your paths winding and natural looking works well too - I personally don't use it since I use the in game ones plus a few separate codes to not take up too much designer space

[iron pulsar]

@neon glen oh ok i’ll try to see if i can work on that! but thank you :))

[rich sail]

Yessss

I can buy you them

Gimme a dodo sometime I’ll bring over some tell me how much you want

[craggy junco]

that map is just

[woven drift]

Honestly i prefer using the panels, I’m just unsure how to use them properly

@plain forge aaaah! Tysm! As of course, i do have “The Path” you’re layout will be a lot of help and i appreciate it so much! I am really striving for a natural look

[neon glen]

@woven drift https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8nxtj2VIO0&t=1206s&ab_channel=Tania-HeathHorizons dont rly know what theme you're going for, but the creator of this island has a lot of nice buildings

[iron pulsar]

what do you guys think of the area around my house? i need more opinions lol

[woven drift]

@neon glen I’m trying for a new york city type feel

[rich sail]

Yes the roof is cute!! N I’m down 😊

[neon glen]

u could prob use inspiration from her island since it's rly modern imo!

[rich sail]

I’d say get lots of the poles then

From redeem nook miles

[woven drift]

Light poles?

[craggy junco]

again for fairycore fans:
DA-3328-3405-6427 ... a literaly dream and pure inspiration (sadly didn't take screenshots when I visited)

[rich sail]

Nah the other ones sorry I’m bad at names

Omg thank you Luna!

[craggy junco]

utility poles?

[rich sail]

Yes!!

[iron pulsar]

tyy luna!

[tight abyss]

@rich sail i could use my wife’s account

[neon glen]

this one in particular looks rly nice

[rich sail]

Yes do it!! It’s awesome

[woven drift]

This looks better, but those windows that are half hidden are killing it

[rich sail]

I know you’re not gonna do servers but look at how cool 😭

N I love that!!

[woven drift]

I mean they do look good at night

[rich sail]

Righttt

[woven drift]

It’s during the day I dont like

[rich sail]

True idk I just time travel to night usually bc I find things prettier then 😂

[neon glen]

what area is this for? is this a market type area?

[woven drift]

This area’s a street market

[rich sail]

If you did a forced perspective it could literally just be on a rock on the water n so it’s not like out in the open idk forced perspectives are fun and can add a lot to an area

Ouu lemme look up stuff

[iron pulsar]

omg that’s so cool!

[simple spoke]

anyone have any ideas for a carnival?? pls i rlly need help and design inspo im not sure what items etc or what to do. so if you have any pics pls show me them!!

[neon glen]

i think you'd have an easier time if you separate the buildings and place the stalls like this? and instead of the phone box u could put stalls side by side.

[rich sail]

Omg @ebon panther that’s so cute!!!

[woven drift]

i think you’d have an easier time if you separate the buildings and place the stalls like this? and instead of the phone box u could put stalls side by side.
@neon glen im not sure if that’ll work in this area because of how close i am to the back of the island

[simple spoke]

@toxic oar oooh omg its rlly well done i like the idea

[ebon panther]

You @'ed the wrong frank but I'll take the compliment 🥴🥰

[neon glen]

aweofjewof

[iron pulsar]

idk if you guys already know this but o just thought i’d share it- so if you have spooky carriage, you can put springy ride ons in front to make it look like they are pulling it

OMFG JDGDHFKGK LOL

[neon glen]

^ it also works w garden wagons too if you're short on space

[rich sail]

What colours are you thinking of doing sasa? Like which teacup ride are you wanting to use and everything? Do you have Pietro?

That’s so cute

[woven drift]

hihi!!!

[iron pulsar]

oooo that’s so cute!

hiii :))

[woven drift]

[kind egret]

[iron pulsar]

dannnnng i really need to step up my decorating game 😓

[woven drift]

how do i tack pics on labtop

[paper tendon]

that looks nice!! and lil kiki looks adorable too 🥺^^

[woven drift]

@woven drift i uploaded them to twitter and then downloaded the photos

[marble onyx]

Anybody got any spooky or Halloween entrances for their islands?

[simple spoke]

@rich sail yess i have pietro and i have the cool teacup one the black/red one basically the colors for my island are red and black anyways so it fits. i wanted it to be like a carnival not sure if i shuld also add fires n arcades games too

[plain forge]

This looks better, but those windows that are half hidden are killing it
@woven drift it's a little hard to see but it's the only pic I have with me atm, but to solve the half hidden window problem you can use fencing between the two stacked panels (i.e. I used the hedge) and it'll block the bottom window on top while simultaneously add depth to the structure
