Topic: Animal Crossing: New Horizons

Been super overwhelmed with wanting to make some major layout changes after getting my 5 star rating! I hate tearing up everything I worked so hard on, but I guess that is all part of the experience, right!? I keep telling myself this, and yet, it's tearing me apart undoing the 300+ hours of work I have put into it thus far! Anyone else feel more frustrated than liberated when it comes to all the options and possibilities on what you can do with your island, or is this just me? Lol

@foxyflimflam I have five stars, but I have a feeling my island isn’t the best it could be. I’m not sure whether I should work around what I’ve got, or completely move everything. There is also two bits of land that I just don’t know what to do with...

@foxyflimflam
I have yet to hit 5 star, been at 4 star for weeks. I got very bored and unhappy my island layout, so I tore down more than half of what I completes, moved all buildings, trees, hundreds of flowers so many times, I sometimes wonder if it’s all worth the aggravation. In the end, it is, as long as it makes me happy and I’m enjoying the end result when I attempt and succeed to create something I believe looks even better than I imagined or thought I could possibly create as I am not the creative artist in the family.

YOU PLAY FOR YOU. WHAT’S THE RUSH? It’s supposed to be fun, right?
Pour a very tall glass of vino before you play, you’ll be glad you did! I know I am 😝
CHEERS TO YOU! 🍷 🍷 (ting) ❤️

@foxyflimflam Not limited per say, but I totally understand not wanting to tear apart something you put hours and hours into. There are a few places on my island that I kinda want to redo but at the same time are my favorite parts of the island... If I did it, it would be a major project that would probably demand several days of play or more of reworking.

I’ve just thought of this great idea for my island, but if I put it into action, I’ll have to cut down a few trees and possibly lose my five star rating. I’m not sure whether I should do it or not.

@Gret8888 I wish I could, but I am 22 weeks pregnant so prob not the best idea! 🤣 I will, however, enjoy a nice big glass of juice while you sip your wine! Going to just dive in and hope it turns out how I am envisioning!!!!

@Ronniego sounds good. We are both on UK time so should be easy enough to coordinate. Let me know what time works for you. I’m quite flexible at the moment.

@foxyflimflam
Congratulations!

@Gret8888 Thank you! 😊

@Gret8888 sorry must have misread your post
@cooldude99 thanks so much
@Ronniego thank you

@foxyflimflam Congratulations! I wish you magical and memorable years of upcoming babyhood.

I don't know if I'll be getting the game this week or the next one, but I finally ordered it. I hope to play with all of you soon, this is my first Animal Crossing game.

Anyone have any spare bamboo DIY? I'm will to pay in bells or nook mile tickets. Or my limited selection of hybrid flowers.

@Heavyarms55 I don’t at the moment, but I get spare ones often, so I’ll let you know if I get one.

@cooldude99 please do! I seem to get nothing but wreathes. XD

@Heavyarms55 is it just me, or is it that during nature day you get more ‘nature themed’ diy recipes?

@cooldude99 No, a lot of people have mentioned that.

@Heavyarms55 oh. It just seemed that whenever there’s a bottle on the beach or a villager crafting, it always seems to be more nature themed (flower wreathes, fruit rugs) but maybe it’s just chance.

@cooldude99 I mean it could be. I don't have actual data. But others have said the same.

I just want more bamboo stuff... lol

I am also looking for the Ironwood Dresser DIY. I need it for 2 other items I want to make. >.<

@Heavyarms55 I don’t have a spare ironwood dresser recipe, but I could make it for you if you want

@Heavyarms55 are you free this morning. You could quickly pick up from my island: bamboo partition, bamboo wand, bamboo noodle slide, bamboo shoot lamp, steamer basket pack. Not the best but better than nothing.

Also have angled sign post, orange wall clock, log bed, shell bed.
