[pearl frigate]

enchanted forest entrance 🥺

[nocturne anvil]

You can make like a honey farm with that space

[errant chasm]

Day 5 of my rose farm

[upper bane]

Cute!

I feel like there's too little space, actually XD

[left shore]

Pls give me some ideas to make this look nicer! Thanks 🙏

[blissful schooner]

why not combine them?

pink cosmos would fit fine

[blazing cedar]

thoughts on my house?

[twilit wren]

[mellow bridge]

please get the trade role from #721542917264638002 first, then you can go to #690093605821480980

Evergreen’s campsite~ 💚

[slender breach]

Im looking for something Egypty to do for Ankha and Lucky, anyone have any ideas?

[worthy bison]

anyone have terraforming ideas? I dont want my island to be completely flat, but I dont want to spend hours terraforming either...... just sort of small ish areas :)

[quick lake]

Finished ALL my villagers yards as well!
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/383693339678998549/817156661093203998/Villager_Yards1.png?width=720&height=302

From left to right we have Freya, Flo, Hamphrey, Puck, Rory, Piper, Maddie, Coco, Drago, Skye

[desert summit]

Guys I have trouble making my terraforming look natural any tips?

[floral knoll]

Is anyone good at decorating an island

[limber shadow]

i feel like the space in front of my villagers houses is awkwardly wide, what should i add to make it look better?

[kind grove]

a fountain or well would be a nice centerpiece to kind of break apart the huge path!

[nocturne anvil]

You can add some trees, bushes and some benches. Leave a straight grass line and put that there.

[real granite]

I can’t remember who made this originally (I’d love for them to speak up! I would never take credit for your hard work and I want you to be acknowledged!!!) but I’m frustrated as to how to get the borders of the simple panels I’ve been using to turn brown as well?

[nocturne anvil]

Like this. Not mine btw

[real granite]

Also I’d love to know if that cobblestone path is a custom design or if you can buy more paths slots for in-game available paths?

[nocturne anvil]

You have to catalog all diferent colors pf simple panel, you cant customize in game sadly

[real granite]

Wdym by catalog? Are there different colors of panels?

[nocturne anvil]

Yeah. A lot of different border colors. Catalog mean ask someone who have all the colors and pick them up and them trow them. You now could buy every color with the app or the machine in the resident

[nocturne anvil]

Yeah. You can buy that cobble in game it is in the resident with nook miles.

[nocturne anvil]

Or witch one do you mean?

[real granite]

The small square cobblestones. I’d also love to know how some people get borders on their original paths

[nocturne anvil]

If it is the image you post, no thats a custom path. The borders you can brows them in pinterest and scan the qr code in abble sister or your phone if you hace the nintendo app

[hard inlet]

Beau’s house

[compact pewter]

I’m trying to decide what to put here. I had gardens (black, purple, orange for Halloween) and it’s time to change it. Should it be a garden, if so what colours, or what are your other ideas???:)

[marble surge]

Maybe pink and white flowers for spring colors?

[tired eagle]

[void geyser]

[bleak wind]

It's a website for trading items

[rich cove]

so nookazon is a website and app for animal crossing that you can sell and but stuff for items, bells, or nook mile tickets

and buy*

[woven drift]

Let’s keep the conversation island layout related, thanks guys

[bleak wind]

Sorry!

[empty dust]

The entrance is being worked on. I have cliffs on the sides that I still need to decorate

[woven drift]

Does anyone have any cool junglecore layouts I could use for inspiration?

[woven drift]

Oh v nice thank you.

[untold lily]

I wanted to put my nook's cranny and able sister's near my entrance with 2 inclines in between them along with a bridge going across. I'm not sure how much space I need to do it.

[coarse cedar]

thats super cute!

[regal storm]

Can someone help

I need cottage core ideas what items should I put

[scenic siren]

Finally done, I had an idea for my entrance and after getting mad I finally leaving it like this. This is day and night

[scenic siren]

@woven drift when I was starting I usually started with my entrance or resident service because they are the ones you can't move , then I move to how and where I wanted my nooks and able located. I wanted them close to my entrance

[desert summit]

Where did you get those cute mini buildings?

[silent stirrup]

the yards around my houses are super small which really limits me adding anything cool.. i’m wondering if anyone has any ideas for what to add?? the house in the picture is dobie’s so i’m wondering what would work for him?

[scenic siren]

@desert summit they are the dollhouses

[desert summit]

Omg thats genius

[sterile crest]

Lopez

[scenic siren]

@desert summit thanks 😊 saw someone once put a dollhouse on the grass and a small tree next to it then I got the idea to do this on my entrance

[pliant leaf]

What would look better? Stone or wooden pathways?

[dry acorn]

Has anyone tried placing a festivale stage under the floating blocks?

[burnt gorge]

@pliant leaf what island theme are you going for

[pliant leaf]

Urban

Something simple

[regal storm]

PLEASEEE help what do I add here?!

[livid jasper]

someone with a mushroom forest? i need inspo so ping me

[regal storm]

God I just want to give my dang switch to someone who has so much good building skills and they could just decorate my island :’)

[sour brook]

Was trying to make a post office but ended up with a fairytale themed bookshop. :T

[regal storm]

Cute

[silent stirrup]

since the theme is cottagecore... maybe add some picnic tables?? maybe use either the log dining table, or the log round table! for chairs you can use the log bench or stool! customizing them all could also work as well!? idk lol

[regal storm]

Ooooo I think I can get a cloth table and put a custom design and some wooden stools thanks!

[silent stirrup]

that sounds awesome!! glad i could help

[desert summit]

Does anyone have any ideas how I can incorporate the mario pipes in my zen/natural garden themed island? I love the warp mechanic and want to utilize it but I can't find a way to incorporate them without it clashing.

[upper tapir]

here are some mushroom forests I found within this channel ^^

[gentle tiger]

Can someone dm me so they can come to my island and help me get ideas on what to put on my island. I’ll pay

[silent stirrup]

i’m super stuck with figuring out what to add to these small yards.. any ideas??

[livid jasper]

ty!

[reef solar]

Any ideas on what else to put in this area? It still feels a bit empty...

[regal storm]

Can someone come to my island and give me cottage core ideas- make sure to bring a ladder (and maybe bring some cottage core items I can pay you 80 nmt)

[woven drift]

flowers??

[silent stirrup]

omg why didn’t i think of that lmao, what kind do you think will work???

[woven drift]

hmmm... are there orange cosmos?

[silent stirrup]

yep! i tried it out and it looks super nice! tysm

[desert summit]

Try putting some benches around the fountain

[sterile crest]

is it just me but when I play at this hours in animal crossing there’s nothing else to do

[grim halo]

I made a picnic area for Candi and Nana

[subtle flower]

wow

can i get ur dodo code

[subtle flower]

i wanna see ur island

[grim halo]

My dream address is DA-2694-0162-7721

[subtle flower]

?

[subtle flower]

i am new and i dont understand lmao

i only know that i need a dodo code

[grim halo]

Oh, if you have a bed, you have to put it in your house, lay on it, talk to luma, enter the dream address and you'll be at my island. But I'll dm you a dodo code anyway

[subtle flower]

ok

[toxic oar]

Idk if anyone responded but you can surround the pipes with cliffs to make them seem more "hidden." They're still usable from the upper layer. You could also hide them behind buildings.

[desert summit]

Thx

[real pine]

does anyone have kidcore forest island inspo?

[real pine]

o

ty

[uncut karma]

I created a little sew/craft station out front of mine!

[left shore]

Pls give me some ideas to make this look nicer! Thanks 🙏

[sharp sluice]

well, you can put a campfire right next to it and some flowers with weeds here and there

[last basin]

My newly created strawberry farm and Sherb was kind enough to stop by just as I finished 🙂

[sacred siren]

I like how it’s on the beach, it’s pretty

[last basin]

was too much hassle on land as the flowers kept growing back

[sacred siren]

Fair enough

[sharp sluice]

Guys I have an area with mushrooms etc but it is at the upper corner if the island, I was wondering if some cliffs with a small waterfall would make it better.

[icy star]

pic?

[sharp sluice]

I already made it

[icy star]

map update! i made a few small adjustments and i marked where i want to put the houses

getting dangerously close to my incline limit

[sweet otter]

Lmao great island name

[icy star]

thank u it took a lot of thought

bonus gif! so much has changed!

[sweet otter]

Does anyone have advice on what to do/watch on yt before terraplanning the island? I personally only bought one bridge n cheap stairs cuz I know it's gonna be teared down anyway

I know this a very vague question, but I just wanna avoid doing something what might be a bad choice in the end. I got all the building permits since yesterday.

[sweet otter]

Wow whats your hour count? Also, Drago is loveeee/life

[icy star]

if you want to see how a terraforming thing looks, try using the 3d island planner

i think im at 360 rn

[sweet otter]

Is that something in-game?

[sweet otter]

That's 2x my time

Tried to speed run the game lol I got the concert ready within 10 days

[icy star]

no the 3d island planner is a computer app u can find online

it has a web version but it's super laggy on some computers, so i downloaded it on mine

[sweet otter]

Kk imma check that out ty

[sharp sluice]

what can I add?

[drifting plover]

When you terraform and your campsite fits just right 👌

[upper tapir]

trees, bushes and flowers to fill up more space, and some more furniture (rocks, logs, ect.) could make it feel a lot nicer!

[sharp sluice]

rocks?

what do you mean?

[upper tapir]

https://catalogue.ac/i/d49 https://catalogue.ac/i/d647

garden rock and flat garden rock could work as well

[dusky vector]

my current map :3

[upper tapir]

looks clean!

[dusky vector]

ty!

[left shore]

Thx, sorry for the late response

[limber obsidian]

Thanks for the idea!
I'll start by gathering items related to sewing/crafting and then I'll see what I can do with them.
I also decided to remove the little cliff as it was getting in the way.
Your photo also reminded me that we can place clothing as furniture on the island. 😅 I'll place some clothes that Label gave me. 😊

I'll update you whenever I finish it. Thanks again.

[dusk robin]

Has anyone got/seen an island layout with cliffs going all round the outside? My island is 80% complete and already thinking of flattening it and starting again 😑 (for the third time)

[last basin]

anyone with any out of the box ideas for stalls. I have all the main types of stalls you would expect already.

[bleak wind]

I've hidden one of my pipes around the back of Nook's, if that helps? It works pretty well I find

[solar marten]

Can I visit your island via DA?

[tardy fossil]

I’m having such a hard time deciding what to do for Norma’s house.

[stiff thunder]

For the dairy farmer, you could make a little cow barn (like the horse stables you see online) and some tin buckets. You can also just have a mini farm by her house. It really depends on the rest of your island's vibes

[tardy fossil]

That would be kinda disturbing having a cow with a cow farm 😂

[stiff thunder]

lol again depends on your island vibes. If you don't want to be disturbed lol then you can make a basic pumpkin/flower/honey farm or just a nice reading area.

[fiery tendon]

Some ideas from mine; café/seaside bakery, botany/witch hut, flower grove ✨

[tardy fossil]

@fiery tendon your character is so cute 😂

[fiery tendon]

Thank you! He's always dressed to impress

[last basin]

Just realised I have 6 different markets on my island. Oh my >.< that is alot of stalls...

[north folio]

I've recently flattened my island and spent this morning decorating the entrance.
Rudy and Molly seem to be enjoying it

Any suggestions for improvements are welcome

[steep bluff]

Does anyons have suggestions for my museum entrance?

The vertical space is limited but horizontal space is not a big deal

[limber shadow]

anyone have any inspo for like a little fishing area next to a river

[tardy fossil]

Do a fishing dock! With a cooler, benches, and a fishing pole rack. Buckets are also good for this

[limber shadow]

thank you!!’ i just made a fishing port and i kinda hate it lol i like that one better

this is what i came up with and i don’t really like it

[bleak wind]

You're welcome, @limber shadow 😊 I find that contained areas work better sometimes than larger ones!

[limber shadow]

what should i do here? my fishing area is behind me, beach is to the left and my neighborhood is to the right

[subtle cedar]

Can someone help me build my island I’ll physically give 2 million bells

2-20 million bells

[last basin]

My fish market is almost complete :) just need to add in my custom pathing

[inland furnace]

My lil entrance

[bleak wind]

Unfortunately other people can't terraform or decorate for you, it's not an added feature yet

[subtle cedar]

Oh that sucks :(

[tired eagle]

imagine howd it would be if 2 players could terraform at the same time

[bleak wind]

Omg it would be soooo amazing 😭

[tired eagle]

and place furniture and paths

[balmy comet]

I saw this a while ago and I was just trying to make sure this is actually yours

[inland furnace]

I got inspo from this!

[balmy comet]

Looks dope

[last basin]

Fish market is done! 🙂

[upbeat lodge]

Any ideas on what to fill the empty spots on my island with?

[rare lotus]

Has anybody got a farm/barn area they could send over for inspo? 🙂

[woven drift]

wow

[coarse cedar]

hope it helps :))

[rare lotus]

Thank you both @last basin @coarse cedar

Both great 🙂

[coarse cedar]

anytime!

[winter ice]

Field trip to the museum with my favorite gangster swine

[waxen halo]

Here's my map so far today! Before and after.

[coarse cedar]

ooo! pretty!

[pliant cipher]

looks neat! Are the brown patches the areas you are going to put the villager houses?

[waxen halo]

They are! I have the placements for anger houses, inclines, and my own house

[lethal thorn]

This is what the space leading up to my warp pipe looks like. How can I improve it without changing the space it takes up.

[spring parcel]

can anyone give me some spring ideas? i have a lot of space around my island i want to set new things up! 😊

[north folio]

What about a bee/honey farm?

[brittle jewel]

Anyone have any ideas for the main entrance + Tom nooks building ?

[shrewd ermine]

What do y’all think about my camping area?

[scenic siren]

@solar marten hi sorry I dont have one i just finish with my entrance and finish a villagers home and just working on trying to finish the nook shop, able sister and my garden field. Idk if that all you want to see. 😪

[woven drift]

any idea what to do in front of the plaza?

do you guys have any tips for for saving custom designs , given that we aren’t given a lot of space for saving them

[woven drift]

make sure you need every design you have, if you have designs that only works for some seasons don’t keep them all the time, privilege designs you can use on multiples areas instead of design you only use once or twice

[nimble tartan]

Some ideas for spring! This isn’t mine

[buoyant light]

Where should I put my rock garden? I was thinking in the upper right corner where my bamboo grove and campsite are, or on a floating island between my town hall and the shops behind a waterfall

[boreal flower]

Smol beach design

[buoyant light]

Are those beach towels made from custom designs?

[boreal flower]

No from ables designs, talk to sable alot and she will give you more designs

[robust quest]

Playground maybe? Dog park? Fresh farmers market or fish market would work great too to bridge neighborhood and beach

[vocal tinsel]

I'm doing a library for my island and I cannot decide which pathing to use, I want one of the standard game ones. Does anyone have any suggestions?

[onyx crown]

This is my little playground.

[limber shadow]

yeah i was thinking a playground but i already have one. i think a farmers market would look awesome tho, tysm!!

[limber shadow]

is that a custom design on the ground? if it is do you have the code?

[limber shadow]

mine has the wood plank one

i mean it’s not really a library but

[onyx crown]

@limber shadow I'll look and see if I have it quick

[limber shadow]

tysm!

[vocal tinsel]

it looks great thank you

[jade oar]

I also used the dark wood path!

[coarse cedar]

cozy!

[onyx crown]

Only area of my Island i'm super proud of tbh

[vocal tinsel]

ty! it looks amazing!

[jade oar]

If anyone has any beach inspo i'd appreciate it! hahaha looking for more of a natural/laid back vibe but i'm super stuck with what to do

[onyx crown]

It looks really cool at night

[calm otter]

used the floating blocks in my greenhouse! ✨😌

[onyx crown]

Also like the little area I made that leads to my plaza

[calm otter]

Love this

[teal lagoon]

thats so pretty

[teal lagoon]

WOAH

[gaunt oriole]

finished the first part of my neighborhood

btw ignore the massive chunk of empty land next to the first house

i'm still wondering what to put there

[solar marten]

if you're not ready don't worry!! i'm also in the progress of redoing my whole island. it's a whole mess right now hahahah. but your pictures look so lovely

[scenic siren]

@solar marten yea same I have a mess but once am done hopefully ill remember to tag you

[spring lark]

Anyone have any ideas on what I should make my entrance

[azure prawn]

I could get inspiration from this

[real orbit]

Any advice on what I can add to improve this area? This is the plaza leading to my museum

[coarse stirrup]

I think my island is coming together

[violet wing]

Oh cool!

[coarse stirrup]

the outside of my arcade

[uneven knot]

I'd say some bushes and benches. Maybe more statues. I think I have some inspiration saved if you'd like them

[real orbit]

Yes please! I’d really appreciate some inspiration :)))

[uneven knot]

Sweet! Just a second, I'm searching through I think I have one in particular that best describes what I said

[quick iris]

i have a question for anyone who can help

i need to pay off my house debt

does anyone know how i can do that semi-quickly?

[uneven knot]

Aha! I think this is the one! Not mine, and not the same colors but I think you can see what I mean

[quick iris]

thats beautiful

[real orbit]

That’s so cute I love it

[uneven knot]

And luckily I could find the creator. It's from u/mewmewfoofoo on Reddit

[hot dome]

Anyone got a sec? Would love some help trying to redesign my mid-island river. It looks... bad. Any ideas to make it nicer?

[obsidian falcon]

Loving my island so far

[worn tide]

Does anyone have a man cave/ arcade I can come see I need inspiration

[solar marten]

oke no worries!! excited to see either way

[solar marten]

omg i love it, do you have a DA?

[azure prawn]

You could make it a little less thin and add some 45 degree angles to make it natural

[hot dome]

Thanks, I've got a big idea now :3

[azure prawn]

NP

[obsidian falcon]

Thank you! And yes I do c:

[azure prawn]

Actually if you have some nice places do you mind if I come see ur island in game?

[hot dome]

It's still kinda a wip and I'm gonna make a fountain area but sure yeah if you wanna come take a look around :3

[azure prawn]

K I'll visit

[inland furnace]

How 😩

[azure prawn]

@hot dome you have to give me the code to visit ur island tho

[obsidian falcon]

Haha wdym

[inland furnace]

So gooooood

[hot dome]

I was gonna PM you a dodo once I get it 😛

[azure prawn]

[azure prawn]

[astral jetty]

Anyone wanna play with me I’m bored

[azure prawn]

That was fun palkia

[hardy willow]

If you want to visit an island or have visitors to your island the correct channel is #690093605821480980

[woven drift]

is it any good?

[azure prawn]

Ye

[woven drift]

Idk if this is a thing or not. But I'm looking for someone to help me with my island.

Someone was trying to help me plan my orchard but the trees are over crowded and some of them didn't grow.

Like if you're able to come over and let me know what I need to do to make it look prettier. And help me with he orchard😓

[azure prawn]

I could help

I have an orchard

Its not the best but

[woven drift]

i think i can help about tree growth

[azure prawn]

You have to grow them 2 spaces away

[woven drift]

yeah

[azure prawn]

From echother

[woven drift]

not only each other everything needs to be 1 space away from the tree

They seemed like they knew what they were doing so I didn't bother them when they planted

[azure prawn]

They were wrong tho?

[woven drift]

Yeah

There's a bunch of trees

And I'm thinking maybe the area we put them in isn't the best place for it to be?

can you invite us to your island?

[azure prawn]

I cant do it rn

[woven drift]

Yes I can

[azure prawn]

Sad

[woven drift]

I'll dm both of you

ok

[woven drift]

Any one have any ideas/ suggestions to what I should do to my idea like design wise

[azure prawn]

I can do it in a little bit

[cold vine]

so this is my layout and i really don’t like how the houses are pretty much all over the place. i think i might just restart my whole island 🥺

[solar marten]

tyyy i'll visit soon hehehe

[cold vine]

any recommendations ^^

[bronze timber]

What else could I add here?

[icy star]

not everything. only water, cliffs, and other trees

[icy star]

hedges and stalls might be good

[woven drift]

i thought when growing nothing should be near it

[solar trellis]

Agreeing with the user above maybe make a stall that hands out the museum pamphlets?

[icy star]

nope just the 3 i named. i grow tons of trees

u can put items, furniture, flowers and bushes etc

oh also houses. u need to be 1 space away from a house

[warped shale]

opinions on this spot for a campsite? i kinda like it but i keep telling myself that most of the time the tent won’t be there to look cute halp

[azure prawn]

Yes

[bronze timber]

I like that spot

[warped shale]

oki i’ll give it a try wish we had an option to keep the tent up 🥺

[woven drift]

🌸

[wary crown]

not sure if best channel but trying to get ideas for best villagers for a neon/cyber themed island

can @ me if have ideas!

[woven drift]

whenever someone says cyber islands I always think of Ribbot so maybe he’ll be a good villager

[exotic tinsel]

Ribbot and Sprocket are good villagers for cyber theme

[azure prawn]

I saw Lopez in the background toyboat

[exotic tinsel]

Oh yeah haha he is

[coarse gate]

haha yes I love him

[zenith roost]

As you should

[rigid gorge]

Anyone have any ideas or suggestions? I don’t know what to do with my island

[gentle fractal]

Decorated my campsite today, here’s the entrance to it 🏕

[robust quest]

Finally happy with my playground/park area ☺️👌

[hard flare]

What should I put on this rock?

[robust quest]

Maybe a lighthouse, picnic blanket, telescope, cushions, star fragments, etc? Could make a lookout scenic spot, a star gazing spot, little fishing nook, or pirate treasure stash spot lol

Got this little strip of my park-bordering street done too ^^

[timid cipher]

Anyone know of an item to place in front of a simple panel to fully block the bottom half? Trying to do storefront signs and hide the repeated bottom part

[boreal flower]

Garden wagons maybe?

[uneven knot]

The first thing that comes to mind are stalls, den desks, or fireplaces. If you mean a 1x1 I know there's a lot of options but my mind immediately thinks podium

[boreal flower]

Or ive seen people use carboard boxes

[uneven knot]

Oooo if I may add onto that. Perhaps a cardboard box with something small on top? Like a mini cactus for a garden shop?

[timid cipher]

Thank you guys

[woven drift]

Some shots of my island 🙂

[pliant cipher]

woah looks so nice!!

[wicked blade]

Just wanted to share that I got my island layout to how I wanted 😄 just some tweaks here and there and furniture items 😶

[bleak flume]

WOAH THATS SO SICK

[woven drift]

Thanks

[wicked blade]

Ayyy thank you!

[bleak flume]

goals

[jagged laurel]

I’m wondering on what to do with Pietro’s yard any ideas

[lone talon]

Bike rentals at broccolo’s hehe

[steel ore]

Maybe a mini festival themed cafe?

[spare cargo]

Does anyone have an oceancore entrance?

[woven drift]

Making this was a pain 🙈

[smoky thorn]

A little calming garden area I did by my neighbors homes 😍

[icy star]

make them have a source and make it a little wavy instead of straight the full way

i have many rivers/streams on my island and they look pretty natural

[tranquil narwhal]

Any tips for a natural entrance idea this is how much space I have for one

It’s been driving me crazy trying to make a good one

[reef cobalt]

Working on my forestcore island.

[thorny dust]

cute!

[azure prawn]

@reef cobalt do you mind if I come see your island for ideas?

[coral trail]

Can anyone help me design my island map? Not sure if this is the right channel for that but I can give bells and nmt in return

[green cedar]

new area of my island

[reef cobalt]

Its not done, but sure!

[azure prawn]

K

U can dm me the dodo code

@reef cobalt I'm ready when u are

[coral vapor]

Looking for some ideas and advice for my town! You can see where my horse farm was and im moving it toward to orchard, and goinng to try and put a diner/arcade spot beside the library. would love thoughts!!

[hard inlet]

Does this stone path look good or should i change it for something else?

[azure prawn]

@reef cobalt what happened

[scenic blaze]

please dm them instead of posting here since it clogs up the channel, thanks

[reef cobalt]

I recommend the dirt path!

[icy star]

i used that stone path before! it looks really nice but i think it looks better layered on top of dark dirt

[hard inlet]

Ok thanks! I think I use the dirt path like the rest of my island

[icy star]

the dark dirt turns the stones darker too and it looks nicer that way

[sharp hazel]

Chief's yard so far; tips/advice appreciated!

[elder ether]

A ruins rock garden temple theme for my tropical island !

[icy star]

i like the path u used. maybe it will look good with white street lamps

[woven drift]

Bird bath maybe

[icy star]

[sharp hazel]

Thank you! I've got a theme going where the street lamps lead up and along the pathway, but I've got some Nova lights on the edges owo/

[woven drift]

[sharp hazel]

[sharp hazel]

Uuuuh XD

[woven drift]

[sharp hazel]

I wanted to keep the yard themed to the villager, so I based it around their interests/hobbies if that helps provide context ^^;

[woven drift]

mhm

what type is the wolf villager/cheif

[sharp hazel]

Cranky

[woven drift]

hmmm

maybe

idk it looks really good already

[sharp hazel]

Aww thank you ;w;

But I'll keep the tall thing in mind for sure, thanks! @woven drift @icy star 💖

[icy star]

no prob!

[woven drift]

nb @sharp hazel

chief is very lucky

[icy star]

[woven drift]

[sharp hazel]

Awww thank you ;A; 💖
He's my best boy and deserves a good yard >w<

[woven drift]

[rigid gorge]

Hey guys I have no ideas what to do with my island can someone give me ideas or suggestions?

I also just unlocked terraforming

[sharp hazel]

Is there a specific them you're wanting to go for?

[icy star]

i recommend completely removing the river so u have more space to think

[rigid gorge]

Okay thanks

[icy star]

and then u either start at the entrance or at resident services

[rigid gorge]

Not really but something that I want is a town for my villagers

[sharp hazel]

Yeah good idea! Or you can keep it and try to work around it, maybe something natural-looking

[woven drift]

zerx maybe make a vibe area

[icy star]

think about where u want ur shops first. close to rs or far away?

also since ur rs is straight across from the airport it is perfect to make a grand entrance!

[scenic blaze]

I have chief and this is what I did for his house area!

[icy star]

cute!

[rigid gorge]

Okay thanks

[sharp hazel]

Omg it's fantastic!

[scenic blaze]

we have pretty different styles but i figured it might help you think of items! yours is extremely cute too!

[icy star]

what are the furnitures u used to stack the bowls on top of?

[woven drift]

u should put fencing and space stuff out a bit (no disrespect) but but that its very cute

[sharp hazel]

My style is "throw everything together desperately and hope it works" XDDD 😭

[woven drift]

i feel nice in this server none of my friends play acnh and i can be my true self in this server thanks everyone

[icy star]

i like both styles

[scenic blaze]

this one? it's the back of a turkey day fireplace

[rigid gorge]

Same

[icy star]

ahh i c. thanksn

[sharp hazel]

Ya'll are so nice and this is my first day in this server 😭 💖

[woven drift]

like i never use the word cute infront of my friends but i feel confident to say cute and im not being like annoyed so thx

liek someof them are like ar in 🥶 the boyz

[scenic blaze]

thank you for the feedback! This is the style for my island haha. It's very crowded and that's how I like it lots of people prefer more open space but I like it to be crowded

[icy star]

using taller items that can have items on top are a great way to add dimensions to ur island!

that really sucks. i dont think u should talk about that here tho

[woven drift]

so yeh

yeh

[scenic blaze]

i'm glad you feel comfortable here, but this isn't the right place to talk about that

[woven drift]

u right srry

[scenic blaze]

it's okay!

[icy star]

bookshelves also let u put stuff on top of them btw

[woven drift]

cool

[sharp hazel]

I love your style! It seems very natural and zen~
I guess my style is garden chic? Not sure how to describe it without just showing it <XD

[rigid gorge]

Yeah sometimes you just need somewhere to be yourself

[icy star]

mothra is the other thing on the side of chief's house a vending machine?

[woven drift]

mhm like streamers they make me feel myself

[icy star]

with the other bowl

[scenic blaze]

yes!

i forgot that was there lol

too many items to keep track of

[icy star]

oh cool! i didnt know u can put things on top of them

[icy star]

cute!

[nocturne haven]

What is this channel for? Where do I go to share my dream adress / get a critique?

[icy star]

it looks like a beach boardwalk!

[scenic blaze]

this is in front of chief's house, you can see it in the top left just a little

[icy star]

dream addresses go in #dream-addresses🌜 but u can post pics here and ask for feedback!

if u want u can add that ppl can dm for ur da maybe, but there's a mod here so they might have a better answer

[scenic blaze]

you got it, bipo

[nocturne haven]

thank you! I don't mind sharing my DA theres no personal info. I'll go that route since getting pics off my switch is a pain.

[icy star]

i recommend adding in ur post that u would like ppl to dm u feedback

[nocturne haven]

Got it! Thanks a lot!

[quiet wadi]

beachside able sisters

[reef cobalt]

I think it looks good as is!

[minor stone]

I just made this little area, really cosy and chill :3

[mossy glade]

Hello. I am having a hard time trying to figure out to do with a part of my island

[toxic oar]

Do you have a picture of the area or a theme you're going for?

[hard flare]

Any farmers market ideas?

[quiet wadi]

hope this helps

[sharp hazel]

TYSM! 💖

[fierce snow]

#dream-addresses🌜

[green cedar]

made a little convenience store (?)
think it turned out well, i just crave decorating lately

[woven drift]

Does anyone have any inspo for a cottagecore or forestcore entrance that has a long resident services?

[zenith blaze]

Slowly coming along!

[rugged cobalt]

mkay, so im trying to make a cottagecore island thingy and my island looks pretty horrible. any tips?

[bold vale]

audie and tom’s barcade! i still need to put something where the blue roses

[bold vale]

my rainbow beach

[silent stirrup]

so right now i’m trying to make a chain link fence for my island.. i’m really stupid on how to make it nicer since right now it isn’t.. does anyone got any ideas or tips?

[sullen crescent]

THAT LOOKS SO COOL

[bold vale]

maybe some hedges, street light and trash can?

[bold vale]

thanks!!

[silent stirrup]

omg i thought that i tried every single fence i legit forgot about the hedge fence! tysm! those things will definitely make it more natural

[upper egret]

Add some bushes. also it looks better when you use the other tree types instead of the triangle ones

[silent stirrup]

tysm!! i’ll grab the other ones to mix in! 👍✨and i have bushes in my storage to plant!

[upper egret]

I also suggest some of those poles too with the streetlights! and maybe somewhere to sit in front of it so it blends in

[silent stirrup]

perfecttt! that’s for sure to look super natural ty again!

[tepid swift]

I- nee- he^^^^^p

[buoyant light]

I feel dumb, I don't know how to turn this chunk of land into a star shaped island

[stable grove]

does this look okay so far? and if not what should i change

[rugged cobalt]

oo, that looks great!

[stable grove]

ty!

[rugged cobalt]

:>

oo forgot this is my favorite part of my yard b]

[ebon verge]

can someone with a forrest core or mushroom fairy forrest kinda vibe could post their island map it would really help me out i need ideas for terraforming

[spice rock]

does anyone want to actually help me make paths in my island? I suck and have given up on paths... going for a horror/Victorian themed island

[icy star]

try asking #custom-design-help🎨 maybe. they might have suggestions

[spice rock]

oh true, thank you!

[wooden hearth]

Almost finished my junglecore island! Ignore DA lol

Im gonna change up the middle right bit a little to make it more accessible ;-;

[icy star]

i love all the water! the map definitely gives me jungle vibes!

maybe even some swamp vibes because of the lake shapes

[wooden hearth]

I love my map sm haha

[icy star]

i love ur map too! i love a good waterscaped island

[wooden hearth]

the waterscaping is my greatest achievement

[icy star]

do u have a viewpoint where u can see it from high up?

[wooden hearth]

some spots yeah, and the other spots are viewable from ground level

I'm out of inclines sooo 🤷‍♀️

[icy star]

ah i see. im almost out of inclines too lol

how many was the limit again? 9?

[wooden hearth]

8

[icy star]

oof im closer than i thought

[wooden hearth]

I only have 5 bridges so I'm gonna add some more because the right side of my island is v confusing in this one particular spot

[sharp hazel]

Slightly updated Chief's yard <XD

Not super drastic but I tried to take into account the advice and added more light sources!

[icy star]

ooh! it looks much better already!

did u mostly change the top left?

[sharp hazel]

Yeah! You were on the nose about too many small things so I replaced the fireplace with a bookcase since it's much bigger

[icy star]

that looks really good!

[sharp hazel]

TYSM! ;w;/

[woven drift]

Great job! Looks great! Something i could never do lol

[icy star]

do u still have music playing there?

[sharp hazel]

Thanks so much!! Nonsense! I'm the worst decorator there is so you could def do something like this no problem <XDD

[wooden hearth]

s w a m p

[woven drift]

Lol, I’m not any better

[icy star]

that is really cute!

[sharp hazel]

No unfortunately 😭 Had to take it out to replace it with something that gave off light

[icy star]

i see. im not sure if ur able to turn on radios that are on top of bookcases but maybe u can try?

im pretty sure ur allowed to place things on top

[woven drift]

Every jungle core island always NEEDS to have a swamp! It’s looking good 🙂

[sharp hazel]

I tried to with the big bookcase but it wouldn't let me :c

[icy star]

ah i c

was it turning on music or placing items that didnt work?

[sharp hazel]

Placing items

[icy star]

thx i'll keep that in mind

[wooden hearth]

random but these warp pipes are so good, decorating has never been easier

[icy star]

is there space behind the simple panels on the top right?

[wooden hearth]

Don't have to run back home every minute through the maze of trees

[woven drift]

I agree! Warp pipes make moving around so much easier!

[icy star]

doesnt have to be visible but it'll help to have sounds there

[sharp hazel]

I'm still going to keep tinkering with it cause I'm not 100% satisfied but I think this is better 😄
There isn't ahaha behind there is bushes

[icy star]

i see. i think ur on the right track!

[sharp hazel]

It's thanks to your advice!

[icy star]

happy to help! i love seeing island designs!

my current island doesnt have room for big yards but that makes me want to make some lol

maybe i'll do that for a future build if i decide to reset

[toxic rapids]

Am I allowed to repost 👁👁
I’m just really proud of this
(also I need mushroom forest inspo if you have that)

[icy star]

i repost all the time. it should be fine if u want more comments

[sharp hazel]

It's beautiful!

[icy star]

i love that!

[wooden hearth]

omg you can put stuff on small mushroom platforms whatttt

[sharp hazel]

You should definitely try out villager themed yards bipo! It's fun 😄

[icy star]

it wont fit my theme, but i'll probably still something around for their houses

i dont want civilization to take up too much of my island

[sharp hazel]

Ooo I see, that sounds nice 😮

Is it cottagecore or smth similar?

[toxic rapids]

If you need it I can post the villager yards I have!
Though mine may not translate if you have a different theme

[sharp hazel]

Go for it!

[wooden hearth]

This is drift's little area I made, coz he's a frog I thought he deserved a personal sunken lake

Lmao it looks so yellow on my phone camera

[sharp hazel]

Omggg how are you guys so good at thissss 😭

[icy star]

no it's just a forest with a big lake. i want it to be mostly natural

once it is finished i will share pics! but so far i only did mostly terraforming

[sharp hazel]

Please do! It's sounds lovely 💖

[wooden hearth]

Amelia's house, my island is pretty natural too !

[icy star]

im not online rn but i'm gonna play soon and i'll show a few progress pics

[wooden hearth]

Mines literally a jungle so very natural lol

[icy star]

i love that wood step path!

[wooden hearth]

It's so useful

[icy star]

also that's the same dirt path i use!

[wooden hearth]

It has 10 parts though ;-;

[sharp hazel]

I love the little tiki torch XD

[wooden hearth]

the planks^^^ have 10 parts lol

[toxic rapids]

Diana’s yard and the frog swamp!

[icy star]

cute!

[wooden hearth]

Cute

[toxic rapids]

Sorry that the pics are so dark lol

[icy star]

it's ok!

[sharp hazel]

Lovely!

[icy star]

i love the moon! is it a celeste item?

[toxic rapids]

Yeah!

[icy star]

[sharp hazel]

I wish I was smarter with the Celeste items; idk what to do with them 😭

[toxic rapids]

If you need one I can craft you one :)

[sharp hazel]

Aaah thank you for offering! I have heaps of star frags so it's fine, but thank you anyways! 💖

[thin canyon]

Does this iconic historical scene look familiar?

[wooden hearth]

I really love the background in this pic I took w my friends on my island lol it do be jungle

[toxic rapids]

aa so cute! Jungle islands look so cool but I don’t think I could ever make a successful one 😔

[icy star]

i need to plant more bamboo hmmm

on my island i only use hardwood and spruce trees

[woven drift]

Finished my canal area!!

[wooden hearth]

This is what I've done today! Last photo is what I'm working on right now

[icy star]

wow! hmu if u need fossils! i have like 100 in my inventory

[wooden hearth]

When I switched from cottagecore to junglecore I removed all my hardwood trees lmaoooo I have none left

[icy star]

lol

[wooden hearth]

lol I actually have the whole area around it filled w fossils, dinosaur park 👍👍😈

[icy star]

nice

[toxic rapids]

I should use bamboo but I never do
I’m just hoarding the trees to get the young spring bamboo but I never use them in builds

[woven drift]

Everyone started doing Jungle Core once spring hit!

[icy star]

spring just hit tho

[woven drift]

I mean right before lol

[wooden hearth]

ive been working on my jungle for months lmaoo it's getting more popular these days though

[icy star]

i think it's more that ppl post pics more because the season's right

[wooden hearth]

Im in fall rn coz southern hemisphere 😭

[sharp hazel]

Our island was originally Silent Hill themed but we scrapped that idea

[woven drift]

Most people started a while ago because they were preparing for spring but idk since my island isn’t jungle core lol

[icy star]

i'll be back later with some island pics!

[toxic rapids]

Tbh I love the grass colour now
Nice and natural
Early spring/late autumn grass is gross though
The grass rly fits my theme I think :)

[woven drift]

Early spring is nasty. It’s literally brown lol

[sharp hazel]

It's got a yellow-y color to it ;;

[wooden hearth]

I wish it was summer again 😭

[woven drift]

You could always time travel lol

[wooden hearth]

Not looking forward to winter in a few months, I hated the snow last year

I did that last winter lmao, I had it permanently in spring

[woven drift]

Lol

[toxic rapids]

While we’re here:
Any inspo pics for fairycore residential service?

[hardy willow]

<@&494448231036747777>

[night cradle]

ty for the ping!

[woven drift]

Do you have a dream address? I’m doing a jungle-ish thing and could use some inspiration!

[wooden hearth]

not yet! but very very soon

I could upload one for you, its just the beaches wont be done and one teensy area. I also want to change this other little bit

[wooden hearth]

it's presentable

[woven drift]

That’d be awesome if you could! I don’t mind waiting though if you want to keep working on it first!

It looks awesome just from your few pics so far!

[icy star]

@sharp hazel here are some pics of my island! i have gotten around to much of the item decor yet lol

and here is the map so far. i'm gonna redo my bottom left area

the brown patches are marked areas for houses, though i might move some

[sharp hazel]

It's awesome!!

[icy star]

thank u!

[sharp hazel]

I love the third photo especially! That landscaping is going to look so good once it's finished!

[icy star]

that's my fav part of the island too! here's a pic from the lower side!

[sharp hazel]

Aaaah it's just so pretty 💖

[icy star]

some waterfall stuff too

[sharp hazel]

I bet it looks great during meteor showers XD

[icy star]

i have barely placed any furniture lol

i have a meteor shower spot too but i might replace it since the lake is better for viewing those lol

[sharp hazel]

Yeah, this is seriously going to turn out awesome

[icy star]

thank u!

im pretty done with most of the right side, so im going back to the left side

[sharp hazel]

Give me your terraforming skills 😭

[icy star]

here's the last pic i didnt show yet

[fierce surge]

woahh thats so awesome!

[icy star]

i have 325 hours in the game and i think i spent 250 of those hours terraforming

[sharp hazel]

I can believe it; it's so detailed!

[icy star]

thank u!

i'll show more pics when it is done!

[wooden hearth]

natural islands own my soul

[sour thistle]

Jungle Tropical

Floating Mystic Statue 💙💜💙

[short raft]

I'm working on a Middle earth themed map but my progress is very slow 😄

[rich tree]

Ponyo inspired fishing village ♥️

[pliant leaf]

What should I do with this empty space behind my little shopping area?

[rocky sparrow]

cafe, park, library?

[pliant leaf]

I alright have a somewhat park in the upper section of my island, although a cafe sounds very interesting

But how would I do it?

[rocky sparrow]

here are some examples, i found them on google!

[strange cave]

wow 👏

[pliant leaf]

Ooo those are really nice!!

[rocky sparrow]

goodluck, im sure it will turn out great !

[strange cave]

They are kool looking photos

[pliant leaf]

And fairly easy to get furniture as well

[frigid tree]

Do you guys think that this would be a good cottage core or no?

[rocky sparrow]

aaaw, its cute!

i love the heart river

@sick silo hiya, regarding your post in #happy-home-designs:
#happy-home-designs message

i found these on google, the might help you!

[sick silo]

Thanks a lot! Im so in LOVE

[pliant leaf]

Hmm... I'm attempt the outdoor cafe, but sometimes is off/mission

And I'm not sure what it is

[rocky sparrow]

a little fountain would be cute !!

or,, you can add redds statues.

[earnest tartan]

i need help to design me island pls

[pliant leaf]

Redds statues?

[rocky sparrow]

yup! redd art.

[steel ore]

An open kitchen or bbq grilling station would look good too imo

[pliant leaf]

Hmm I don't have any art pieces lying around since I'm try to fill the museum

I can definitely try that! Although what should I do in the corners? Also I tried putting up some stone fences, but it didn't look right

Also the empty space is a little bothering

[steel ore]

Potted plants maybe? Like a cypress plant at the corner then surround the area with hedges fencing

[pliant leaf]

Those definitely do look very nice

I'll look into it once hedges become available to purchase on my island

[old briar]

Only parts of my island I really tried on

[lusty badger]

looks amazing, I’ve had a cottagecore island I would say make the rivers more natural and curvier. Also have little areas with things like barrels, wooden stools and cottagecore items

[frigid tree]

What should be in uchi, lazy, jock, cranky, and snooty yards?

[buoyant light]

Does anyone have tips for making a star shaped island area?

[uneven fulcrum]

Hi everyone! I was wondering if a island layout with the bottom right corner like this was even possible? i have my rivers positioned this way, but my airport and townhall are inside of the corner bit

[pliant cipher]

sure you can terraform the rivers so it's only one river linking the two river mouths, but the airport and resident services buildings cannot be moved

(also love your pfp and status lol, I got her yesterday )

[uneven fulcrum]

Yaaaas she is queen! If you want to play together anytime lmk, i can share my UID @pliant cipher

[faint snow]

Peanut’s yard🌸

[rugged cobalt]

oo that looks cute!

[woven drift]

I need some creative outlet 😭

I'm working on this atrium

What can be placed around the fountain?

Are these flowers okay?

[rugged cobalt]

that looks great ✨

[woven drift]

Ty, but idk what to improve on. This doesn't feel right

Would two stone statues side by side be more appropriate?

[leaden hatch]

Anyone got a pretty outdoor library?

[rugged cobalt]

oo that would be nice, great idea

[silver harness]

i've been browsing here for like 20 mins just saving inspo

nono, not inspo for myself or my own island
just saving random colourful ideas here for my sister's island i'm never gonna help her with again probably due to my planning skills-

help

[pearl nimbus]

I really hate my island and I feel like it’s beyond fixing so I want to restart but I don’t want to lose all of my stuff. I just don’t know what to do

[silver harness]

same, i wish we could just choose a new layout and keep the villagers we want and all our stuff

petition for multiple islands on one switch sign here

[pearl nimbus]

Exactly! It’s just so overwhelming trying to make my island perfect

[silver harness]

when my sister started her person on her account, i thought it would make a new island and was really disappointed that it just said it was going to mine

[odd ermine]

Lol that happened to my sister too xd

[boreal flower]

Train in the making

[silver harness]

DUDE. THAT IS TOO WELL PUT TOGETHER

[boreal flower]

Thank you xd ive got soo many pics of my earlier tries and they were Just horrible difntotj

[silver harness]

haha i get that. tbh i wish we could have infinite storage to keep trying

i want better building layout

[boreal flower]

If u put everything outside you have enough storage inside

[silver harness]

big bran

[rugged cobalt]

bro this makes me sad- this is my friends house and i feel bad for her because this bridge REFUSES TO BE EVEN

HJKS

[woven drift]

bridges are always such a burden smh

[rugged cobalt]

yeah

[woven drift]

literally the death of me

[vernal ginkgo]

i’m pretty sure bridges don’t have a middle

[silver harness]

some do, some dont?

idk tho

[rugged cobalt]

ye some do

its just annoying

[silver harness]

can my island just.. expand?

[tough verge]

not sure how many times i’ve flattened & redone my entrance at this point lool, but i think i’m finally satisfied

[obsidian hound]

Need some island ideas

[silver harness]

specifically?

[lilac topaz]

I need island ideas too

[silver harness]

specifically..?

[lilac topaz]

To fill up empty space

[stable dragon]

Made this little kitchen area, at the back is the tables, planning to make the library on the left

[lilac topaz]

For example I'm building Bowser's custle but I have a small area before the entrance of the custle and I don't know.

@stable dragon very cool

[stable dragon]

Send some image and how much you worked on? Maybe it will be easier for the others to help

[stable dragon]

thank you

[lilac topaz]

I have been working for about 5 days

From march 1

Shall I send some images ?

[cobalt dirge]

i might just do a zen garden

or a flea market

cause im currently trying nookazon

[lilac topaz]

Any ideas what should I build in a small area before entering Bowser's castle?

[frigid tree]

I need help on what to do for my villagers yards I have one side that is 3x1 and the other side is 3x2

[pine pilot]

Try having frita be a restaurant and Pietro could be a carnival

[frigid tree]

Ooo I never thought of that

[thorny dust]

maybe make teddy's a little fruit shop? or tutu's a big garden with flowers as vegies and stuff

and sylvia's could be a playground for her kid

[short plover]

So I have this as my village layout is there any place that I can find layout ideas

Is there any specific wording for my specific layout or do I just type in acnh layout ideas

Ok Ill try that thanks

[empty dust]

The main part of my desertcore entrance so far, any ideas on what to put next to the black rose?

I considered putting a palm tree there but I don’t want it to block the seating area

[bold vale]

kinda late to the stall/panel game but im really liking how these areas are turning out! i’m kind of obsessed with the festivale garlands lol

[native steppe]

Ok

[rugged cobalt]

alright, so im trying to make a cottagecore island, any tips?

[silver harness]

failboat gang

[spiral dove]

I've got Mario levels on my island with little scenes to showcase the Mario items!

[regal storm]

Does anyone have ideas on what I should put on my cottage core island?

[golden cloak]

Can anyone help? I'm clueless on what to put on my main plaza/entrance area

[bright dune]

hi! does anyone have ideas on what to put on a cottage core/ european looking island? please dm me because i need suggestions. the pic is of what i want my island to look like

[pliant cipher]

Maybe a lava moat with custom designs? and add rows of stone lion-dogs on the sides of the walkway to the entrance (if you have enough stone to craft them that is)

[spiral dove]

Check out my post a bit above. If you turn the mountain standee red, it looks like lava in the right context!!

[pliant cipher]

oh I didn't get it at first but makes sense now lol

[spiral dove]

Lol

[native steppe]

Hello people

[normal creek]

Hi!

[tacit gyro]

Hello!

[shadow abyss]

Hi! Not sure whether to use mum cushion or the floor light for my entrance, please advise?

[forest quest]

i would do the mum cushion

[shadow abyss]

Thank you! I was thinking if I did that to add scorpio lamps maybe on top

[plucky moat]

you could try putting a fountain with some seating around it, maybe some snack and drink machines too if it fits your theme to make a little public park type thing

[shadow abyss]

My resident services is way too close to my entrance so I made my entrance area to hide that not sure how to integrate it from here

[solar trellis]

Is this an awkward transition? Lake is still a wip but does it look out of place?

[shadow abyss]

Maybe angle the corners? Looks fine to me

Of the water not the path

[solar trellis]

Oh ok ty!

[shadow abyss]

Np hope it helps

i think if you added some more trees around the edges of the pond it would like nice

Octavian’s new home

[nocturne anvil]

Thanks for sharing your photo it gave me a good idea what to do there 😅 btw I have Zuckers and Marina at the beach too~

[flint obsidian]

It only makes sense to have them on or near the beach

[midnight trail]

Any suggestions on what to do here?

[flint obsidian]

You could do a star gazing with a picnic

[pine pilot]

Maybe put a villager house there?

[candid kindle]

I would suggest looking at what items you currently have in your home storage and seeing what sort of areas you want on your island that you have the items and space for on the cliff

Unless there’s an incline somewhere there or you are willing to build one there, I wouldn’t recommend placing a villager home up there

[shrewd ermine]

maybe a cafe or something

[flint obsidian]

Does anyone have a Japanese themed yard they can show me

[hardy willow]

entrance

[silver harness]

here's the little restaurant/food stand i made on my sister's island. it's part of her theme/amusement park i'm working on

tips for exterior? :3

(i also moved the chair on the right table to be symmetrical to the other table)

[woven drift]

I introduce
Spider crab bay!

[silver harness]

ah that's a nice petting zoo

[woven drift]

Lol

[patent geyser]

yes

[limpid glacier]

Any suggestions to improve this small beach area? I'm stuck :/

[forest quest]

palm trees

more custom designs

[sacred siren]

Palm trees will fix some of it for sure

Fencing as well

With some random things

[limpid glacier]

Alright, I'll see how some palm trees look for sure! And test out some fencing :) thanks!

[silver harness]

can you sit on the seat on the seat?

[woven drift]

Yeah I think with just some palms and maybe some country fencing it's entrance will do you some good

it already looks good

My little indie hang out center 💞🙌

[fiery tendon]

The finished orchard ✨

[timber forum]

[silver harness]

or theme park ideas

[fiery tendon]

Thank you!!

[wraith flare]

Drake in his yard

[woven drift]

That's such a cute house area!!

[spiral dove]

My Zucker runs a food market! 🙂

[wraith flare]

ty ! He's one of my favorites so had to give him lots of space

[flint obsidian]

If I ever got zucker I’d probably do something similar

[spiral dove]

Ribbot's workshop!

[fiery tendon]

First time seeing my island in the rain 🌧️ 🌿

Thank youu! I took a hiatus and came back to some beautiful spring rain

[north folio]

My old rock garden

[spiral dove]

oh that's a great layout for the rocks. Well done.

[flint obsidian]

Gladys new yard. Are there ways I can improve it

[silver harness]

ty! love the vibe to it

[soft shale]

Looks cool! I’d say fill in some of the empty space some more- maybe with flower/grass/rock design thingies. Or maybe a fence around the back?

[fiery tendon]

Here's what I did for stitches if you want zen yard inspo

White lilies, stone stools and pots help make a zen garden imo!

[soft shale]

Omg that’s so pretty, i love the path

[fluid lake]

Only a fraction of what im working on but it looks great so i wanted to show it off

[fiery tendon]

Thanks! I'm glad I never replaced it with zen cobbles like i was planning to

[soft shale]

np!

[pliant cipher]

I want to do the same layout, but you need to remove the central mushroom in order to get all of the drop from the rocks right?

[north folio]

Yeah, I didn't add any furniture until I got the rocks in place

[woven drift]

Anyone have a zen sand garden?

[north fable]

Hey guys, I'm not sure where to put my neighbourhood, my campsite, or my Museum. Any ideas? Also, river ideas would be great too!
The area at the back is an orchard and marketplace, so not there.

[vocal locust]

gonna rework my islandddd

gonna have to move the buildings around but ill make it work

[vernal ginkgo]

anyone got any market pictures i could use for inspiration?

[native steppe]

Hello

@fiery tendon do you have a code for that path? 😍

[woven drift]

Do you still post on your Twitter?

[tardy fossil]

Does anyone have recommendations for hamlet’s yard? Idk what to do for him that isn’t a gym

I feel like hes more than a gym.

[pearl vessel]

does anyone have a cool idea for a subway station using the mario pipes? i’ve seen a lot of people use inclines for it but i’m at max capacity for inclines so i need a different idea :3

[flint obsidian]

Gladys house is finally complete

[silver harness]

kiddie area (probably) done :D just need a few more diys for the outside/rest of it

[woven drift]

CUTE!

[woven drift]

OMG that’s my favorite time in AC when the sky is like pink, it looks so beautiful 🥺

[silver harness]

sprocket gang :0

because this is the wrong channel lmao

[bleak wind]

This is not a general chat channel

[bleak wind]

Gotta love that little robot 😄

[modest oak]

nothing will ever compare to ac sunsets 🤍

[modest oak]

that little stone path is so cute !!! do you happen to have the code for it ?

[silver harness]

i truly love the industrial/steampunk city look to it. my favourite island themes! (besides cottagecore/naturecore)

[bleak wind]

I do! The creator code for it is MA-7011-8313-9106 😊

[modest oak]

thank you so much !!!

[bleak wind]

You're very welcome ❤️

[rare lotus]

Anybody any suggestions as to what I can put in my farm area to fill spaces more? Not sure what I’m doing with the stall as of yet haha. I will also move the rocks away from here. Any help is very much appreciated

[flint obsidian]

What should I do with this area

[steel ore]

Maybe u can add a seating area near the stall? Or include a chicken farm? Here's an old barn I used to have

[rare lotus]

That’s really cool thanks :), will do something similar!

[steel ore]

Pandas / bamboo shelf / deer scare / cherry blossom items / outdoor bath would compliment that pagoda, imo

[mint swan]

does anyone have any ideas on how to use a mush table ?

[bleak wind]

You could use it as an actual giant mushroom maybe?

[flint obsidian]

Does anyone have a Japanese themed town I need ideas for small areas

[solemn condor]

Thoughts on my campsite 🙂 ?

[bleak wind]

This is what my little farm looks like 😊 I hope it helps give you inspo

[silver harness]

it looks alright, but i think it's too messy and scattered. there's just weeds and unevenly placed items everywhere, and it's just difficult to get through most like. try adding paths, or sort all the items maybe? (hope this isnt too harsh, not the best on sharing my opinion)

oops semt late

meant that for @solemn condor

damn you slow discord

[solemn condor]

Well I don’t have anymore room for paths because I used it all for my studio ghibli area and how do you think I should sort it out?

[silver harness]

i'd say just pluck the weeds and plan out a path from the entrance to the campsite, then put all the items farther to the side of them and go off from there? if that makes even a bit of sense

[solemn condor]

I did kinda just leave the weeds there because I was lazy so my bad haha and honestly i DIDNT want a set path because I like the scattered nature of it which is a to each their own thing but I like the way I placed the items because again I don’t really want a path

[rare lotus]

Thank you that looks great!

[silver harness]

nw, i'm not the best at critique to agree with

[solemn condor]

I guess it’s a to each their own thing hahah thanks for the advice though. A lot of my friends and people who’ve come to my island like my campsite but I do my best to improve it

[silver harness]

i hate decorating the more i play acnh. and yet here i am doing all my sister's work

[prime loom]

[prime loom]
