WOW! Your island looks amazing! I especially love the elves working away. You put a ton of effort into it! I didn’t even get half the decorations, including the reindeer and the trees. Something to look forward to for next year I suppose.

Christmas Tree Farm


Santa's Post Office


Fairly basic ice rink (was handy to fill up some space)


Santa's workshop with some hard working elves


Fairly happy with how my house looks


Jingle and Eugene hanging around the plaza


Christmas dinner table, I imagined if each villager brought their own chair and it was a mix


My forest lights walk (used Wild Lights at Dublin Zoo as inspiration)



My Tiki Bar turned into an Ice Bar for the winter

Wow!! That looks fab, very imaginative.

Princess Peach

So nice! Wishing I saw earlier to steal your Christmas dinner area idea

I think mine will stay up until next weekend, or until I can decide what to replace the areas with! Thinking a frozen bar and maybe a tiny town with the dollhouses. I love my Christmas market area though.... Might stay until the snow melts!

RedRochey

Thanks all!! No idea what to do now, there's going to be a lot of empty space around my island

Have a spare Gift Pile DIY and Garden Wagon DIY if anyone wants them?

Plotting out where to put the 3 houses at the start - can I move these at a later stage or level cliff-faces if I wanted to keep them nicely lined up? Houses #1 & #2 are all ready to go but house #3 is giving me jip!

Yep you can move them later

Yes, but it'll cost you, and if you only want to move them a small bit, you may end up having to move them twice (as you can't lay out where you want the house to be if the house is in the way!)

TherapyBoy

Ah...

Well, the plots are laid out now anyways. I’m fully expecting to be ridiculously wealthy when house-moving time kicks around & I’ll probably end up changing my mind & sticking all the buildings somewhere at the other end of the island anyway! Fun & games!

Princess Peach

And now to share FunkyTown's festive season, since I spent way too long on this

Christmas Market and seating area



Christmas Tree Farm and reindeer stables


Festive front yard


Christmas living room


Star Lord's yard


Happy Birthday Santa!


Star Lord's Christmas living room


Party room!

I can't get on tonight but any chance you could keep the pine bonsai diy and an Informative statue for me please? If not, no worries.

Done.

Hey, just sent another request. I’m about a week or so into the game so everything is new to me. Would appreciate anything you think might help a beginner?

Come on over. Going to be away myself for a little bit but feel free to look around. The free DIYs are in the shops bit and the art etc is up behind resident services. I’ll leave out iron, stones and clay for you

Only suggestion is only take 1/2 bits of art

Could I take the Calm painting and the rock-head?

TherapyBoy

Thanks again! A Da Vinci, a Van Gogh & a Cézanne! You’re a star!

What were the 2 sea creatures you’re looking for? It’s unlikely I’d find them but I’ll keep a eye out

Dodge

I forget their names. Only available from March I think

If you still have the Great statue, I'd greatly take it off of your hands!

I bet ya it's that bloody firefly squid was available in the southern hemisphere the last few months and I spent ages travelling to people's islands and staying way longer than I should have had still didn't find it

I’ve sent you a request if you’re still online, any stars shooting yet?

Accepted and the gates are open

Hey! I’ve met a few of you in the game now & seen some of your incredible islands in the last week or so & just wanted to thank you all, mainly for your generosity! Had my personal inventory filled up by everyone I’ve visited so far with everything possible from diy tutorials & art to flowers & fruit!
Finally feel like I’m gaining control of my little island & starting to breed the flower varieties & roughly plan things out. Never played any of the Animal Crossing games at all before but I’m wondering now what I was missing out on!
