I don't really farm balloons. I don't have the patience for it. So far I have the small tree, acorn pochette, yellow leaf pile, tree's bounty lamp, and the mobile.
I have no idea how many DIYs I still need. It feels like I have them all, since I always get dupes and never get new ones...but then I'm constantly seeing cool items online and learning that they're DIYs that I just never got for some reason. I kinda hate it. Lol. And...I mean...just for regular DIYs in general. I didn't even know their were fall DIYs...all I got was yellow leaf pile. If there is more fall stuff...then I'm really getting nothing. Hahaha.
i have all the autumn diys available since june/july i think. since i tt, i was able to get them earlier lmfao.
the autumn stuff are one of my favorites in the game so i just had to get them asap.
Southern Hemisphere player here. I remember back in April/May I didn’t farm the balloons (especially since Bunny Day overlapped) but I managed to get all the diys from just normal gameplay (popping a balloon when I saw it). Pretty sure I got some from the bottles too, but that might have been changed since.
I remember FINALLY get the big tree’s bounty on one of the last days of autumn. So my advice is be patient! As long as you regularly pop balloons you will get them all.
I have exactly one fall recipe and that’s the one Isabelle sent me. I have yet to find anything in any balloons, and I honestly was surprised when people were saying they got any recipes from balloons. To be honest I didn’t have a lot of luck with the cherry blossom DIYs either.
Sorry! Just wanted to add: I noticed a lot people saying they haven’t been able to get pine cones/acorns. The trick is to continually shake a tree (change up the angles every now and then), and pick up the sticks to clear the way. I usually tried for 10 pine cones/acorns from each tree a day with continued shaking. It takes patience but it’s better than buying them for crazy prices imho!
I have all but the arch and big tree... i think those might not come out till we get maple leaves though. I didn't farm as much as I had to for the cherry blossoms, I do keep an eye out while I play though
