i like the seasonal items the best. they’re usually easy to harvest and are unique/cute. wood is probably my staple resource since i like all the wood furniture.
I would say my favorite stuff to craft is anything bamboo-related. It kind of also makes me think of certain survival island games using bamboo as a crafting material. lol
star fragments and both of the bamboo types. love all the different star signs and colours of the star fragments. i use a lot of bamboo to craft bamboo lanterns too!! got lots of them in tan around my island
I picked seasonal and other. Seasonal, because it never feels boring to collect them. Cherry blossoms, ornaments, and feathers are something I can always use more of, and pumpkins are fun to collect.
For other - vines and glowing moss. I really love crafting the glowing moss stuff, but also like just having it on the ground. And the giant vines have to be one of my favorite things to craft. They have such a neat look.
In terms of the items I can craft with them, my favourites are the flowers, star frags, baubles, peaches, snowflakes, glowing moss and mushrooms!
In terms of aesthetic (and my favourite raw materials to decorate with), my favourite are the star frags! The maple leaves, pearls and pinecones are nice to decorate with, too. :’)
