Nov 1-4th : Welcome Tucker, a completed bridge


It’s been a busy couple of IRL days so here’s a recap of the last few days.
I finally used my nook mile ticket that Nook had left at the airport. He had said it would be a great place to get materials and I might meet someone while I was there.
IMG_0013.jpeg

Wilbur explained the rules of the island. Basically you can gather materials but anything left on the island stays there forever. He also said that if I needed a tool I couldn’t craft he would sell them for miles.
I was collecting some extra materials when I came across Tucker.
IMG_0014.jpeg

He asked about life on the island and seemed to want to move to Crescent.
IMG_0022.jpeg

He accepted my invite and I let him know he should contact Nook in order to finalize his move.
IMG_0019.jpeg

I met C.J. When I got back to Crescent.
IMG_0024.jpeg

He has this contest he calls his seasports challenge. You have to collect three fish in a row. I figured I would give it a try.
IMG_0029.jpeg
IMG_0030.jpeg

He even bought the fish I caught plus other fish I had for a great price.
The next day Tucker was moving in.
IMG_0032.jpeg

Welcome and I hope you really like it here.
I finally was able to pay for the bridge to be completed.
IMG_0064.jpeg

We had a ceremony for its completion.
I was also able to get my hold loan paid off so I could get another and get more storage space.
IMG_0047.jpeg

This time I picked a purple roof.
I placed another housing plot to see who will move in next. Excited to meet a new friend.
IMG_0068.jpeg

We did have a campsite visitor on Sunday but they decided not to move to Crescent. Maybe another time.
IMG_0039.jpeg
IMG_0041.jpeg

We did finish another fossil for the museum.
IMG_0073.jpeg

Spork wanted to give me a beach chair in hopes it helps us get K.K. Slider here.
IMG_0069.jpeg
IMG_0070.jpeg

We had a visit from kicks on Monday.
IMG_0062.jpeg
IMG_0063.jpeg

Excited to see when someone will move into the new plot.

Nov 6th :
Today Mabel and Sable’s sister Label was here for a visit.
IMG_0110.jpeg

I took down the Halloween decorations and started to decorate the entrance.
IMG_0112.jpeg

Still a lot to of work to do decorating the island.
I was so excited to see if anyone had decided to move into the plot I placed the other day. To my happy surprise it was Tasha that decided to move to Crescent.
IMG_0111.jpeg

I then went over to say hello to label.
IMG_0113.jpeg

She explained that she has been traveling and training to become an independent designer. She asked if I would help her out. She said she would give me a theme and done clothes if I would model for her. She wanted me to model a sporty outfit and then gave me an open track jacket. I don’t have much in my wardrobe so this was what I was able to make.
IMG_0118.jpeg

She really liked my outfit and said it was superb.
IMG_0119.jpeg

She then thanked me for my help and said she would be sending tailors tickets in the mail. She said that you can exchange them for items that cost less than 3k. She also gave me some Labelle sneakers.
Just Mitzi enjoying the flowers

Nov 7th : Welcome Tasha
Tasha has arrived on Crescent
IMG_0124.jpeg

I went over to welcome her .
IMG_0125.jpeg
IMG_0126.jpeg

It’s so nice to meet you .
I met Blathers little sister Celeste and she said she was here to see the stars.
IMG_0129.jpeg
IMG_0130.jpeg

I didn’t see any starts but I did get the dIY for a star wand.
IMG_0132.jpeg

I called and invited Sprinkle to visit our campsite
IMG_0127.jpeg

She was pretty happy about the invite.
IMG_0134.jpeg

IMG_0133.jpeg

Sprinkle asked for a shell bed and gave me the DIY gif it. It was pretty easy to make .
IMG_0135.jpeg

Can’t wait to invite her back .
We were able to complete another fossil before heading off to bed. Goodnight 😴
 
Nov 11th: placing the last plot

It’s been a quiet few days. Trying to decorate the island. Tucker ended up with a cold the other day so I brought him some medicine.
IMG_0248.jpeg
IMG_0249.jpeg

Thankfully he was only sick for a day and is now feeling better.
IMG_0251.jpeg

I went over to see Spork and Shep was already there for a visit.
IMG_0253.jpeg

I talked to Nook about setting up another housing plot for Sprinkle. He let me know it was so the last one. Kinda sad we won’t be able to place any more.
IMG_0255.jpeg

Truthfully I think we can place at least two more but unfortunately Nook makes the rules.
I invited Sprinkle back to the campsite.
IMG_0258.jpeg

This time she wanted a full length mirror and I thankfully already had the materials for it.
IMG_0260.jpeg

She was very excited when I invited her to move to Crescent.
IMG_0261.jpeg

Sprinkle’s house is going to be a part of the castle .

IMG_0257.jpeg

I finally went over and visited Harvey on his island . Turns out he owns a photo studio .
IMG_0264.jpeg

I guess I waited so long he almost forgot my name.
He explained how his studio worked and how you can set it up.
IMG_0267.jpeg

Sounds like it will be a fun place to visit.
When I got back to my island Harv called since he forgot to tell me something.
IMG_0268.jpeg

He let me know I can now buy posters of those I have invited to his island through Nook shopping.
 
Nov 11th continued: an exciting opportunity

I received a phone call from Nook awhile ago. He had wanted me to meet him at the airport to introduce me to a friend of his. His friend Lottie was starting a new business and needed to find one last person to be on their team. Nook told me that he recommended me for the position. I finally had some time to fly out and learn more about this new job.
IMG_0270.jpeg

When I got there I was met my Niko. He is a member of the team I would be joining.
IMG_0271.jpeg

He showed my the way to the office.
IMG_0273.jpeg

Lottie then introduced everyone. My job will be to decorate vacation homes . Niko’s job is to help guide me to make the best vacation homes for our clients. According to Lottie he is an expert to all things local. Wardell is in charge of managing furniture procurement and other things. Lottie let me know that they have a uniform . So I went upstairs to get changed.
IMG_0276.jpeg

When I came back down she let my know that the goal of Paradise Planning was to help clients find their perfect vacation home.
IMG_0278.jpeg

Our first client came to us at the end of our meeting.
IMG_0279.jpeg

She was really excited about getting a vacation home.
IMG_0280.jpeg

We had a nice chat about how she wanted her home to look. She decided her theme would be a relaxing reading room. Sounds like a room I would like. She also let us know she knew exactly where she wanted her home to be .
IMG_0282.jpeg

Niko took us over there in his boat. When we got there Eloise was surprised that there were already items that she had wanted for here home.
IMG_0308.jpeg

Niko explained that they send the items over ahead of time. He explained where I can find a list of items that would go with Eloise’s theme. There isn’t a lot to choose from at the moment but more options would be available soon.
Eloise seemed to be happy with her vacation home. I might change it a bit once I have more items to work with.
IMG_0283.jpeg

Once we got back to the office Lottie asked how everything went. Niko told her that the client was thrilled and he was impressed with my work. Lottie was so happy to hear that. She paid me with 6k in Poki since they use Poki instead of bells.
IMG_0284.jpeg

I used some of it to buy a new plant.
IMG_0285.jpeg

Lottie said my next task was to learn about sales. She said most clients we will have to go out and find.
IMG_0286.jpeg

So I headed outside to see Niko waiting for me. He told me that I could find our next client if I took a walk on the beach. I headed that way and found Willow who wanted a vacation home.
IMG_0287.jpeg

IMG_0289.jpeg

She wanted a vacation home were she can relax and enjoy her coffee.
IMG_0290.jpeg

This time I was also able to decorate the outside of the house.
IMG_0291.jpeg

Now for the inside
IMG_0292.jpeg

She seemed pretty happy and asked if I would take a photo before I left.
When we got back to the office Niko said that the client was pleased and had me show Lottie the picture photo we took.
Lottie let me know about an app called the Happy Home Network that we can use for our photos.
IMG_0293.jpeg

IMG_0294.jpeg

She also gave me another 6k in Poki for a job well done.
She then asked if I would go and take a photo of the house we did for Eloise so we can place that on the app as well.
IMG_0296.jpeg

Our next and last client of the day is Allie. Allie wanted a mushroom forest theme.
IMG_0297.jpeg

Outside
IMG_0298.jpeg

Inside
IMG_0299.jpeg

When we got back to the office Wardell had been cleaning and everything was all shiny. Lottie and Niko both said Wardell does a great job cleaning and that he usually cleans when everyone is out of the office.
IMG_0301.jpeg

IMG_0302.jpeg

Lottie like me likes to put off cleaning to the bottom of the list. It’s definitely not my favorite thing to do.
IMG_0303.jpeg

I got paid for my last vacation home and called it a day. It’s been so much fun learning new ways to decorate. I went over and got some souvenir chocolate to take home to my friends. I plan on making each one of them their own vacation home. I think they will really like that.
IMG_0304.jpeg
 
Nov 12th : Welcome Sprinkle and three stars ⭐

Today Sprinkle moved in. She is our last village for awhile. I plan on having a party soon now that everyone is here.
IMG_0311.jpeg

I checked my mail when I left the house and there was a surprise letter from Nook. Looks like Lottie decided to pay for my pro decorating license. That so very nice of her. Nook gave me back the miles I had used to buy it.
IMG_0312.jpeg

I went over to welcome Sprinkle to Crescent.
IMG_0316.jpeg

I wish you good luck with the unpacking.
IMG_0317.jpeg

I remembered Nook saying that Isabelle will be helping out with island evaluations so I went over to se her.
She let me know that evaluations are scores out of 5. That points are awarded based on a few things.
IMG_0314.jpeg
IMG_0315.jpeg

Th system used is based on how many villagers, natural beauty, development and decor. I was a bit worried we didn’t have enough natural elements since I am just now adding more trees and flowers. To my surprise we are now at 3 stars ⭐️.
IMG_0318.jpeg

We even received feedback from K.K. Slider himself.
IMG_0319.jpeg

Nook recognized it right away but it took Isabelle a moment to realize who it was from.
IMG_0322.jpeg

We finally achieved our goal. Nook said he was going to call K.K. Slider and ask if he wanted to visit. I wonder how he got his number and why he didn’t just call him sooner if he could.
IMG_0324.jpeg

According to Nook K.K. Slider could be here as early as tomorrow.
IMG_0325.jpeg

Before l left I decided to pay off the rest of my home loan so I could get a bit more storage space.
IMG_0332.jpeg
IMG_0333.jpeg

I also picked up a bridge kit so I can build a bridge to get to the museum easier.
IMG_0334.jpeg

I have been making sure it say hello to Sable when I see her in Ables. Today she remembered my name and thanked me for coming to visit.
IMG_0377.jpeg

IMG_0381.jpeg

I talked to Tucker about a dream he had .
IMG_0374.jpeg
IMG_0375.jpeg

That sounds like a pretty good dream to me.
IMG_0376.jpeg

The last thing I did was pay off the bridge thanks to selling off a good amount of duplicate fossils.
IMG_0383.jpeg

Excited for to see K.K. Slider.
 
Nov 12 continued: work day two

I decided to invite Bangle as the first on my island to get a vacation home. She was so excited to go to a resort.
IMG_0327.jpeg

IMG_0328.jpeg

She decided that her vacation home should be
IMG_0330.jpeg

IMG_0331.jpeg
I was almost done when Niko came in and said he had something he wanted to talk about.
IMG_0336.jpeg
He wanted to teach me a technique that Wardell showed him. He calls it operation sparkle. It’s a trick to getting furniture to shine.
IMG_0339.jpeg

Thanks so much Niko. Bangle liked her vacation home.
IMG_0340.jpeg

When I got back to the office Lottie thanked me for my hard work . She paid me 6k . She said it’s not good to overwork ourselves so I should take a break and walk around the island.
IMG_0344.jpeg

I went for a nice walk and Willow , Eloise and Alli were enjoying a bbq.
IMG_0345.jpeg
IMG_0346.jpeg

As I walked back to the office I spotted Lottie lost in thought next to a building.
IMG_0347.jpeg

She said before she got here someone was developing the island but stopped for some reason. She said she was trying to decide how to use the unfinished buildings.
She is thinking of making this one into a school. That we would have to have more clients first.
IMG_0350.jpeg

So off I went to find our next Client. I found Bruce and he wanted a vacation home to play board games with his friends.
IMG_0351.jpeg
IMG_0352.jpeg
IMG_0353.jpeg

When I got back to the office Lottie let me know that Niko was waiting for me. So I went to go meet up with him.
IMG_0356.jpeg

He said he had found a note in a bottle and wanted to know what it was.
IMG_0357.jpeg

I let him know it was a DIY and he was really excited about it. He thanked me for letting him know by giving me the DIY.
IMG_0358.jpeg

It was for a glowing-moss stool.
When I got back to the office Lottie asked what Niko wanted. I told her we talked about DIY’s . She didn’t know that I like Niko I also likd to build things. She said that she had ordered a workbench and was asking Wardell if he knew when it would arrive.
IMG_0363.jpeg

According to Wardell it will arrive soon.
I wanted to get one more vacation home done before going back home.
I found Claude and he wanted an arcade vacation.
IMG_0366.jpeg
IMG_0367.jpeg
IMG_0368.jpeg
IMG_0369.jpeg

I can’t wait until I have more options for decorating. It will make it easier when I have more options for wallpaper.
When j got back Lottie thanked me for my hard work. She said I was doing a great job. She gave me the title of Promising Designer which came with a pay raise.
IMG_0370.jpeg
IMG_0371.jpeg
IMG_0373.jpeg
IMG_0372.jpeg

Thank you so much Lottie .
 
Nov 13th : K.K. Slider Concert

Today is the K.K. Slider is coming to give us a concert 🎵.
IMG_0407.jpeg

It was so nice of him to agree to come and play for us. Everyone was so excited.
IMG_0408.jpeg
IMG_0409.jpeg
IMG_0411.jpeg

We really appreciate you coming and everyone really enjoyed the show.
IMG_0412.jpeg

After the concert I had a chat with Nook who gave me a copy of K.K. Sliders song Welcome Horizons.
IMG_0414.jpeg

He said that K.K. Slider enjoyed his time here so much that he will be back every week to hold a concert. Mostly on Saturday night at long as no other events are going on.
IMG_0416.jpeg
He also told me about an app he created to make designing the island easier.
IMG_0418.jpeg

He explained about having to buy permits in order to make paths , fix rivers and cliffs.
IMG_0419.jpeg

Time to go over and see what kind of permits I can get. Luckily for me I have been saving up my miles .
IMG_0421.jpeg

I definitely have enough for all of the permits.
I stopped my Mitzi’s on my way to see Samson. We talked about books and which types would be best for a deserted island.
IMG_0422.jpeg

I decided on comedy and Mitzi agreed.
IMG_0422.jpeg
IMG_0424.jpeg



Work day 3:
I decided to take Samson with me when I went to work this evening. He was pretty excited to get to go.
IMG_0427.jpeg

The original plan was to get him a vacation home when I got there. That plan changed when I went to the office and Lottie had other ideas.
IMG_0428.jpeg

She said we got permission to build the school. So we will be working on that first.
IMG_0429.jpeg

Starting with the outside :
IMG_0430.jpeg

Then of course to the inside . Where Lottie taught me how to make the building a bit bigger so we had more space to work.
IMG_0431.jpeg
IMG_0432.jpeg

It was a lot of fun designing the classroom. We picked Eloise as the teacher.
IMG_0433.jpeg

Lottie wanted a photo of everyone outside the school.
IMG_0435.jpeg

We then went back to the office. Everyone really likes the look of the school.
IMG_0437.jpeg
IMG_0439.jpeg

Niko asked about Lottie teaching me about room expansion and then said he just had a really great idea.
IMG_0441.jpeg

Everyone would love to hear about his big idea but we will have to wait and see what it is. In the meantime it’s time to make a vacation home for Samson.
I wasn’t sure what kind of home he was looking for but this one kinda confused me. I was expecting more of a gym exercise house since he loves working out. I think I did the best I could for the moment and will probably change it at some point.
IMG_0442.jpeg

He wanted a treasure packed gym but there wasn’t much gym furniture to choose from.
IMG_0444.jpeg
IMG_0445.jpeg

tomorrow is another day hopefully will have more time for working on vacation homes.
 
Nov 14th : Introducing Ordinances

Isabelle had a few announcements this morning. She said we can now enact ordinances. In order to help with everyday life.
IMG_0465.jpeg

She also said that this job would fall on me since I am the island representative. I will have to think about which one might be best.
IMG_0466.jpeg

She also announced a new boat tour. She said a captain at the dock would take us to uninhabited islands and there would be plenty of materials to gather.
IMG_0469.jpeg

Sounds like a lot of fun and can’t wait to go on my first trip.
I had two letters in my mailbox.
The first one was from Harvey saying he had something to talk to me about.
IMG_0473.jpeg

The second was from nook ink saying that there are now new items available for nook mile points.
IMG_0474.jpeg

I went right over to R.S to see if cooking was finally available. So happy that is was. Especially since I saw that Mitzi was cooking today.
IMG_0475.jpeg
IMG_0476.jpeg

My next stop was to start giving daily gifts out to my friends. Sprinkle was visiting Samson so I gave her some souvenir chocolates. She was so excited to go to the resort.
IMG_0477.jpeg

When we got there I noticed Leif was walking around and seemed lost.
IMG_0482.jpeg

Leif needed help finding the school. He was asked to teach a class on hybrid flowers.
IMG_0483.jpeg

So excited, I love learning about flowers Leif taught us about how grow and use hybrids in designing vacation homes. Thanks so much for the lesson.
IMG_0485.jpeg
IMG_0486.jpeg

Now I can use hybrid flowers when decorating.
IMG_0487.jpeg

After the lesson I stopped by the office to change into work clothes. I bought an afternoon tea set with my Poki since it will be a nice addition to Sprinkles sweet treats shop I’m making.
IMG_0489.jpeg

Lottie asked if I noticed anything new. She said a relative of hers had sent her a gift to congratulate her on her new business.
IMG_0492.jpeg

She said we can use it to invite clients to the resort. We can even invite VIP clients once we get a bit more experience.
IMG_0493.jpeg

Until then it’s time to make Sprinkle a vacation home.
IMG_0496.jpeg

Decorating the outside
IMG_0497.jpeg

When we got inside there was something new. It was a partition. This was what Niko’s big idea the other day was.
IMG_0498.jpeg

He said we can use partitions to create more rooms inside the house.
IMG_0499.jpeg

IMG_0502.jpeg
IMG_0501.jpeg
it was definitely a great surprise
IMG_0503.jpeg

When we got back to the office Niko said he had a gift for me. He gave me the DIY for the partition wall so I can make them for my house.
IMG_0505.jpeg
IMG_0507.jpeg

I can’t wait to see what else Niko decides to make.
I went back to my island for a little while and when I came back to the resort I brought Fuchsia with me.
IMG_0508.jpeg

I wasn’t entirely sure about how she wanted her house so I did the best I could with what I had. Will go back once I have more options of furniture.
IMG_0510.jpeg
IMG_0512.jpeg

Tomorrow is another day and I will try and get to Harv’s studio to see how I can help him.
 
Nov 16th : Some exciting news :

I didn’t get much accomplished yesterday as my IRL job was 12hours . We did have Sasha as a campsite villager. I hope he enjoyed his time here.
IMG_0518.jpeg
IMG_0517.jpeg

I did go and see Harvey to see what he needed help with . He introduced me to his friend and explained that he wanted to build a co-op .
IMG_0520.jpeg
IMG_0521.jpeg

It would cost 100k bells for each co-op. I had been saving to build an incline but decided to use those bells for a fortune teller instead.
IMG_0523.jpeg
IMG_0522.jpeg


This morning Isabelle announced that Nook’s cranny would be closed tomorrow for renovation.
IMG_0525.jpeg

I went over to see Timmy and Tommy and they shared their good news.
IMG_0534.jpeg

Their shop is going to be upgrading to have more items to sell.
I went over to meet our new fortune teller over on Harv’s island.
IMG_0527.jpeg

She said she can tell you your fortune and also see your friendship level with villagers.
I started by asking about my fortune.
IMG_0528.jpeg
IMG_0529.jpeg

An increase in health is always a good thing. I then asked about my friendship with Fuchsia.
IMG_0548.jpeg

She says that I am important to Fuchsia and she wishes to get even closer.
Katrina then offered a blessing that would help .
IMG_0531.jpeg
IMG_0532.jpeg

I then went over to see Blathers about some fossils and I found him lost in thought. He was trying to find new ways to bring visitors to the museum.
IMG_0536.jpeg

He wants to build a cafe but the problem is his friend has gone missing.
IMG_0537.jpeg

He wanted to know if I would go look for him. Of course I will . Blathers said I could find him if I talk to the boat captain. He also gave me Brewster’s photo so I know what he looks like.
IMG_0538.jpeg

I went over to see the boat captain and his name is Kapp’n
IMG_0539.jpeg

It cost 1k in nook miles to go to another island. I found Brewster at the back of the island after I gathered some materials.
IMG_0540.jpeg

I explained that I was sent by Blathers to find him. That Blathers would like to open a Cafe and needs his help. Brewster told me to tell Blathers that I hear you.
IMG_0541.jpeg

He then gave me a gyroid fragment and told me to bury and water it.
IMG_0542.jpeg

I went back home to let Blathers know I had found Brewster.
IMG_0543.jpeg
IMG_0544.jpeg

He was happy his friend was found and that he was coming to help.
IMG_0544.jpeg
IMG_0545.jpeg

Blathers said he needed to get things ready and that he would need to close the museum tomorrow.
IMG_0546.jpeg
IMG_0547.jpeg

Both the museum and shop will be closed tomorrow but once they reopen we will have a cafe and a bigger store. So exciting.
 
Nov 16th: work day 5: A new title , a restaurant and more

I decided to invite Spork over to HHP to get a vacation home.
IMG_0550.jpeg

He wanted to read books in an autumn forest which sounds pretty good to me.
Outside
IMG_0552.jpeg

Inside
IMG_0553.jpeg

When I got back to the office Lottie was on the with some clients. She said that she has been getting calls from happy clients saying how much they love their vacation homes.

IMG_0555.jpeg

She also said that the last vacation home I did was a milestone. It was the tenth vacation home I made.
IMG_0557.jpeg

Lottie , Niko and Wardell wanted to have a party to celebrate 🎉
IMG_0559.jpeg

IMG_0560.jpeg

I really appreciate the party. They thanked me for my hard work and we had a nice party chatting and spending time together.
IMG_0568.jpeg

I made a vacation home for Tybalt before I went back home for a bit.
Tybalt wanted a vacation home he could play baseball at.
IMG_0563.jpeg
IMG_0569.jpeg

The next vacation home is for Tucker so I went back home to get him. He was excited about his vacation home.
IMG_0570.jpeg

He wanted an archaeology dig.
IMG_0573.jpeg

While I was decorating the inside Niko cane in and wanted to teach me about different effects that you can use while making furniture sparkle. He said he learned it from Wardell and that Wardell had asked him to teach me,
IMG_0575.jpeg

IMG_0576.jpeg

When I got back to the office Lottie gave me a new title. She called me a breakout designer and thanked me for my hard work with a raise.
IMG_0566.jpeg

Thank you so much .
I went back later in the day and brought Mitzi with me. When I got to the office Lottie said we had permission for not one but two different facilities. She said we could build a cafe or a restaurant and asked me to pick one.
IMG_0580.jpeg

I went with the restaurant.
IMG_0581.jpeg
IMG_0582.jpeg

IMG_0583.jpeg
IMG_0584.jpeg

Now for the last vacation home of the day .
Mitzi wanted a mountaintop eatery.
IMG_0586.jpeg
IMG_0587.jpeg
IMG_0588.jpeg

I had a nice chat with Lottie before I went home for the day. She said that Paradise Planning was going to team up with Happy Home Academy to share design portfolios.
IMG_0589.jpeg

That I could post them in the app if I wanted to
IMG_0594.jpeg

It’s been a busy day and I am sure tomorrow will be just as busy.
 
Nov 17th : closed for remodeling

Isabelle reminded us that both Nook’s Cranny and the museum are both closed for remodeling. She said we will celebrate both reopening’s tomorrow.
IMG_0596.jpeg

I got a letter in the mail from Wardell. He congratulated me on my 10th vacation home with a nice rug.
IMG_0597.jpeg

Placing it in my home reminded me that I really haven’t spent much time in my own home.
IMG_0598.jpeg

I went over in the evening to see if Shep wanted a vacation home and found him not feeling well. I was about to go to the store to get medicine when I remembered it was closed. So off I went to go make some.
IMG_0600.jpeg
IMG_0601.jpeg

He seemed to be starting to feel better when I left.
IMG_0604.jpeg

Hope you feel better soon. I went off looking for either PeeWee or Tasha since they still needed a vacation home. Peewee was busy with his flea. For some reason he was digging through garbage.
IMG_0605.jpeg
IMG_0606.jpeg

Most don’t it’s where the fleas are.
I found Tasha near the fountain in front of the castle and she was so excited to get a vacation home.
IMG_0608.jpeg
IMG_0610.jpeg

I went to the office and Wardell told me about a new service that was being offered to those that worked at HHP.
IMG_0616.jpeg

Thanks Wardell that will be a big help.
Lottie said that our restaurant is going over well and that we might find some new clients there.
IMG_0611.jpeg
IMG_0612.jpeg

Making a vacation home for Tasha. She wanted to be surrounded by orange furniture.
IMG_0617.jpeg
IMG_0619.jpeg
IMG_0620.jpeg

I went over to the restaurant and learned how to make a new recipe.
IMG_0621.jpeg

When I went back to the island I talked Isabelle about ordinances. I have been thinking about which one to get. I think for now I will go with the beautiful town ordinance. I trying to grow more flowers and hopefully this will help with that.

I went over to get a cup of coffee. Blathers thanked me again for finding his friend.
IMG_0664.jpeg

Brewster thanked me for giving Blathers his message.
IMG_0665.jpeg

Happy to help you both.
IMG_0666.jpeg

Actually I would add lots of cream to the coffee.
I then went over to see the new Nook’s Cranny.

IMG_0796.jpeg



A lot has happened over the last few days. Both Fuchsia and Samson gave me their photo’s .
IMG_0781.jpeg
IMG_0789.jpeg

I moved Samson’s house from the beach.
IMG_0783.jpeg

I invited Friga to the campsite twice and made her some souvenirs.
IMG_0788.jpeg

Spork ended up getting a cold
IMG_0779.jpeg

Thankfully he is feeling better now.
I started work on my project for the middle of the island. I paid off my incline. Thinking of which bridge I would like to build next.
Maybe the one to the campsite.
Tucker came over for a visit .
IMG_0782.jpeg

Isabelle announced that Turkey would ge on the 28th. That they even brought in a chef .
IMG_0786.jpeg

We welcomed Tortimer to Harv’s island
IMG_0812.jpeg

I had a cup of coffee at Brewster’s and he told me starting tomorrow I can get coffee to go.
IMG_0790.jpeg

It’s been a busy few days and the next few will be just as busy. Will update HHP progress tomorrow. 😴
 
Nov : HHP

I haven’t had a lot of time to work on vacation homes . I did make vacation homes for Peewee and Shep. They were the last two villagers from Crescent that needed one.
I completely forgot that I hadn’t uploaded pictures of Shep’s house and accidentally deleted them when I was going through looking to delete some pictures since I had too many. So I went back to his house to take new ones.
IMG_0821.jpeg
IMG_0822.jpeg

I talked to him before I left to see how he was doing. He seemed kinda sad and lonely so I am glad I checked I checked in on him. Now that I can help with roommates I will have to think about who would make a good roommate for Shep.
IMG_0827.jpeg

I made Peewee his vacation house. He wanted a gym.
IMG_0773.jpeg
IMG_0772.jpeg

Since I didn’t have much time I stopped by one day just to see what Wardell had for sale. When I got there Niko said he wanted to teach me some new DIY’s. So we went to the school for a class in DIY’s.
IMG_0776.jpeg
IMG_0777.jpeg

Thanks so much for the class and DIY’s.
I missed a couple of days. When I went back Lottie said that she and Wardell had been waiting for me. Sorry about that I would have come sooner had I known.
IMG_0797.jpeg

Wardell wanted to know if I could help Niko out with his DIY’s. He asked if I could help out with materials and that there was a list of materials needed upstairs in his box.
IMG_0798.jpeg

IMG_0799.jpeg

I went back downstairs to start work and Willow came into the office.
IMG_0800.jpeg

Niko had found her outside and she wasn’t sure if she should come in. She explained that she wanted to try out a roommate but didn’t know how to go about it.
Niko and I offered to help her. So I picked Baabara as her roommate and they hit it off pretty good.
IMG_0803.jpeg
IMG_0804.jpeg

I made a few changes to the inside so that could both have their own rooms.
IMG_0805.jpeg

I then went back to the office to talk to Lottie about making the cafe. This is where she mentioned that we would be able to give future clients roommates if we wanted to.
IMG_0807.jpeg
IMG_0808.jpeg
IMG_0809.jpeg

IMG_0810.jpeg

IMG_0811.jpeg

I finished the work day by placing the requested materials in Niko’s box. I hope they are very helpful to him.
IMG_0813.jpeg

Excited to see what he comes up with.
 
Nov 25th : celebrating the new incline

Today was a busy IRL day so not much got done. We did celebrate the new incline going up to the shops.
IMG_0875.jpeg

It’s right in the middle of where gingerbread village will be for toy day.
I picked a spot and by the end of the day was able to pay for the new bridge. This will make going to the campsite easier.
IMG_0876.jpeg
IMG_0902.jpeg

I went over to HHP and Niko was so excited. He had made some new DIY’s .
IMG_0868.jpeg
IMG_0869.jpeg

He was also excited that someone was placing materials in his box. He thinks it’s Wardell and that’s ok.
IMG_0871.jpeg
IMG_0872.jpeg

I went over to the office and was buying a few things when Wardell let me know that I can now order items .
IMG_0873.jpeg
IMG_0874.jpeg

I put in an order for some items for gingerbread village.
I went to check Niko’s box to see if he needed any more material. Thankfully I already had what he wanted.
IMG_0878.jpeg
IMG_0879.jpeg

I thought about it for a bit and decided to have Marshal be roommates with Shep.
IMG_0881.jpeg
IMG_0883.jpeg

I completely redid the inside so that each can have their own bedrooms. They seemed to really like it.
IMG_0885.jpeg

The next vacation home I made was for Buck. He wanted a locker room. I made him an outside gym and a place he could relax inside.
IMG_0886.jpeg

IMG_0907.jpeg

IMG_0887.jpeg
IMG_0888.jpeg

Back at the office Lottie said that Wardell had been praising my work. That was so nice to hear .
IMG_0889.jpeg
IMG_0890.jpeg

Lottie said that Wardell was probably taking a break near the ocean. That we should probably take a break too.
IMG_0891.jpeg
IMG_0892.jpeg

Wardell may not talk much but he has some really great advice.
IMG_0893.jpeg
IMG_0895.jpeg

He is definitely right about that
IMG_0897.jpeg
IMG_0898.jpeg

Back on Crescent I invited Friga back to the campsite made her an aroma pot. Then was able to invite her to live on Crescent.
IMG_0877.jpeg

Unfortunately that also means saying going to someone. I wish you the best Fuchsia.
IMG_0899.jpeg
IMG_0900.jpeg

I ended the day by getting my friendship checked with Tasha
IMG_0903.jpeg

Katrina said the she could feel our friendship growing stronger. She then blessed our friendship.
 
Nov 28th : Happy Turkey Day

Friga moved in yesterday and unpacked this way she could join us for Turkey Day.
IMG_1083.jpeg

I went to R.S to meet our world class chef. It was a little early and things were just getting set up. I was able to give a few gifts to the villagers. Tucker gave me his photo.
IMG_0972.jpeg

Since it was still a little early it was a good time for some aerobics before a nice meal.
IMG_0973.jpeg

Franklin is our chef for today. It was so nice of him to come and cook for us.
IMG_0976.jpeg
IMG_0980.jpeg

Don’t worry it will all be ready soon.
IMG_0981.jpeg

Franklin explained that even though he brought enough ingredients he would really rather use local ingredients instead. He also said that he’s assistant didn’t show up and he would need some help gathering ingredients.
IMG_0989.jpeg

For the first dish we are making clam chowder:
Ingredients:
3 Manila clams and a scallop
I went in search of the ingredients. The Manila clams were pretty easy to find. The scallop took a bit longer and when I finally found who Pascal showed up.
IMG_0986.jpeg

Sorry my friend but maybe I can find you another one later.
Franklin was pretty happy with the ingredients I found for him.
IMG_0990.jpeg

The next dish was pumpkin pie.
Ingredients:
One of each color pumpkin.
That was pretty easy to get since our veggies are now all grown.
IMG_0999.jpeg

Third dish is gratin :
Ingredients
Oyster, mussel and Dungeness crab
While I was looking diving for them I found another scallop this time I did give it to Pascal for the Mermaid table DIY.
IMG_1010.jpeg

IMG_1005.jpeg

The last dish was the main dish meunière.
For this one I needed to go fishing for a
Sea bass , dab and barred knifejaw. While I was fishing I was able to come up with a few recipes to use with the fish.
IMG_1012.jpeg

IMG_1026.jpeg

Franklin was so happy with the ingredients and how all the dishes came out. He said we made them a little bit different than he usually does and thanked me for the extra ingredients.
IMG_1015.jpeg
IMG_1028.jpeg
IMG_1016.jpeg

We definitely make a great team and it was so much fun. Thanks so much.
Franklin gave me a cornucopia and a bunch of other gifts for my help. He even gave me recipes for the dishes we made. Also DIY’s for some turkey day furniture. He said he really isn’t good with furniture so I should have them.

Nov 26-28 HHP

It’s been fun helping Niko out with materials. He gave me a few new DIY’s. I haven’t made a lot of vacation homes but I did make some for Flora and Pancetti.
IMG_1085.jpeg

For Flora’s house she wanted it to be a lot of pink .
IMG_1090.jpeg
IMG_1091.jpeg
IMG_1092.jpeg

When I had gotten back to the office after finishing Flora’s vacation home. Lottie let me know I could start offering two story vacation homes.
IMG_1093.jpeg
IMG_1094.jpeg

I was walking around when Buck gave he a gift for making him a vacation home.
IMG_1086.jpeg
IMG_1087.jpeg

For Pancetti she wanted a place for the best rest.
IMG_1046.jpeg
IMG_1047.jpeg
IMG_1048.jpeg

Back at the office Lottie thanked me for my hard worked and gave me the new title of Famous designer.
IMG_1049.jpeg

IMG_1050.jpeg

Lottie said that she had a new challenge for me . That business isn’t always about what they want but what they didn’t know they needed.
IMG_1052.jpeg

IMG_1051.jpeg

Her new challenge is to try and look for clients that don’t know what they want in a vacation home. That I now can ask VIP clients if they want a vacation home.
IMG_1102.jpeg

This is so exciting since I already know who I will invite first. It will of course be Franklin since he was so kind to cook for everyone for Turkey day.
 
Nov 29th : the first snowfall

I got a very late start to the day . When I walked outside to my surprise it was snowing.
IMG_1105.jpeg

It’s our very first snowfall. Can’t wait for it to stick and can make snowman.
I had a nice chat with Shep. He wished he had wore socks. He asked me if I was driving a car where would I be driving it.
IMG_1107.jpeg
IMG_1108.jpeg
IMG_1109.jpeg

I invited Chabwick back to the campsite. This time he wanted a garden rock.
IMG_1111.jpeg

He was really happy when I crafted it for him.
IMG_1112.jpeg

Now he is going to be moving to Crescent.
IMG_1113.jpeg

It will be sad to see Samson leave but maybe he will come back one day.
IMG_1146.jpeg

I went over to HHP to make Franklin his vacation home. When I got there Niko had some new DIY’s to share.
IMG_1114.jpeg
IMG_1116.jpeg

I wonder what he has decided to make now. I went to the office and checked his list of materials he needed. He needed gold nuggets and iron ore. Thankfully I already had the gold nugget since I found one earlier when making the garden rock for Chabwick. The iron ore will have to wait until later.
Franklin was so surprised when I called to offer him a vacation home.
IMG_1118.jpeg
IMG_1119.jpeg

It mentioned he wanted to come up with some new recipes. The best way to do so would be with being able to use fresh veggies.
IMG_1121.jpeg

Inside I made him a nice kitchen and a space where he can sit and create new recipes.
IMG_1124.jpeg

He was happy with the results.
IMG_1123.jpeg

When I went back to the office Lottie was on the phone.
IMG_1125.jpeg
IMG_1126.jpeg

Apparently the caller had seen some of the pictures of my vacation homes and wanted one. Lottie then said that the house I made was my 20th vacation home.
IMG_1128.jpeg

She said they decided to celebrate by going to the restaurant for a party.
IMG_1129.jpeg

Everyone congratulated me on my 20 vacation homes.
IMG_1130.jpeg
IMG_1131.jpeg

We chatted about everything we have been able to do since we started. Niko mentioned that he hoped Lottie wasn’t working too hard and to make sure she gets a break.
IMG_1134.jpeg

She appreciated the thought and said she would rest soon. There was something she wanted to do first. She explained her plan to hold an event.
IMG_1136.jpeg

She explained that an event of this size would need everyone’s help. Niko volunteered to find the venue.
IMG_1141.jpeg

It’s my job to continue making vacation homes. Lottie said we would need 10more.
IMG_1140.jpeg

Wardell’s job would be to get feedback on some details about a bunch of stuff.
IMG_1143.jpeg

Lottie goal is to make everyone happy .

IMG_1144.jpeg
It was a nice party . When I left I went out in search of some iron ore. I went to a mystery island and a Kapp’n island and finally found enough.
IMG_1148.jpeg

IMG_1268.jpeg
IMG_1269.jpeg

I have been buying flowers and bushes from Leif at Harv’s island and when I went there the other day.
IMG_1314.jpeg

That’s so nice of you to say . Leif wanted to thank me for buying from him and gave me a new DIY.
IMG_1315.jpeg
IMG_1316.jpeg

Thank you so much .
So happy to have been given so many photos
IMG_1253.jpeg

I have spent most of my time making some new patterns and decorating the island for toy day. Hope to make a few more patterns once I figure out the best way by to make them.
