I'm behind, and I saw something about red gnome on the previous thread. I would love a red gnome(I don't think I have any). Just sent the Garden gnome - Passionate gnome. Thank you so much!

I have Celeste and shooting stars, and I think I've managed to trap her. She's up on the top level on the west side near the orchard. BUT -- before you come visit, you should know that I'm in December so there's snow on the ground! If you don't want to see that yet then don't come.

Man, thank goodness for expanded storage! The winter clothes are so cute. I am on December 11 and snow is sticking finally. I think I have my terraforming done, so next leap is to the 15th and hopefully o get some Diys so I can decorate!

Thank you monklady123! I had so much fun! BTW, I dropped a tambourine on your track. I either had to drop my snowflake or something else. I wasn't giving up on my snowflake.

Closing the gates now because it's way past my bedtime. Thanks for the nice comments from those of you who visited. I've had a lot of fun doing winter stuff. I love winter! I love cozy clothes, and blankets, and hot drinks, and snow... etc.

Have any of you done the jail bars for balloons yet? I made them and lined them up on my beach, I watched while eating dinner and I did get one balloon, but it seems like there should have been more. I will keep it t a few days, but I so hate the way looks! Just wondering if any of you had success or not?

Made sure I watched to see if any snuck through and they do because I have a cliff with my house that is in the way so if I’m lucky I get roughly 70% of the balloons that I think I should be getting if I’m actually sort of watching for them. Nice thing is I don’t have to run up beach and back again I can just run over to the end of the bars at approx the time it should be there and have managed to get quite a few balloons. Funny enough 🤪 most balloons are not diys. Sigh. Lol. It’s like it knows I’m cheating. Haha. Is it really cheating though or is it innovative?? 😂

I just wanted to let you know where it came from.

I have noticed--and I could be totally wrong as to the reason--that I have better luck when balloons don't hit a house or store, etc before hitting the jail bars. My Able's is right next to my jail bars: I noticed that any balloon flying eastward towards the store and the bars flies right over. Part of me would love to terraform my Island so it is all one level and so I can have the bars along each side of the beaches in order to catch balloons. But I'm not that obsessed...yet, lol

During evening from left side go all the way across to right beach where bars are and not as predictable so I think you have a point.

I set up bars on my right side and I think that will work best because evening is when I have time to sit and watch while doing other things. I did end up getting a lot of balloons, only two holiday diys, but for one night I am ok with that. I got holiday rug and light up present. The one I really want is the tree and snowflake so those I will probably never get, ha! Glad to hear other people’s experience though.

Also, good thing I don’t love the ice block diys and feel like I need them all because I will never be able to make a perfect snow boy, I did exactly as the video said, but it is super difficult to figure out the angles to measure by and they must be super picky because I was pretty dang sure I had it correct and didn’t get it at all. I will keep trying, but I hope that it gets easier.

I will keep trying, but I hope that it gets easier. It will! Did you see my post from yesterday morning where I said that I had made THREE PERFECT ONES IN A ROW! lol... The trick is to stand next to the head snowball and tilt the camera down so you can see your ears. Make sure you're looking straight on at your ear next to the snowball. The head snowball has to come up to just the bottom of your ear. Get it positioned right next to the base before you start, measure by your ear, then push it over. Unfortunately I can't find the video I used. But basically the guy paused the video and drew a line straight across from the top of the snowball to the bottom of his ear. (this is the head piece). For the bottom piece just make it as big as you can, which will be when your character slows down while rolling it. If you accidentally make the head too big (you can tell it's too big when you stand next to it and measure) just roll it up to a building or into the river to destroy it, then run into a building. When you come out you'll have a new snowball. Also, my video guy suggested opening the camera to do the measuring because you can zoom in easier. There is hope! And when you do make a perfect one don't forget to play for the next couple of days in order to get another large snowflake from the melting snowboy. Even if you're not interested in the ice furniture there are still some fun ones -- a snowman head for you to wear, a snowman you can make... Also, the ice tree and ice pillar look cool in the dark with lights near by. GO, GO, GO, you can do it! SO frustrating. ugh. It took me many tries, and lots of time traveling, and I still can't do it every time. But I can make a perfect one now more times than I can't.

evnimom Snow angels! But unfortunately we can’t make them ourselves. 😜 Beautiful! But wouldn't it be fun to be able to make one ourselves? I really had a ball last night on your island. Your snow took my mind off the fact that I got another wand. LOL. (I think that's the last wand) Off to find that code!

Unfortunately I didn't think to write down the code. Just search for "snow angel"....there were several but this one looked the most realistic I thought.

Good morning! I am having a path crisis. There are so many cute things I want to do, but the custom design slots are TOO FEW. I'm considering kicking up all my path edging in sacrifice, since there are so many adorable holiday designs to use, and who really cares about path edges? Will I regret this? Maybe. LOL I got all mad and kicked up some of the holiday light path I had put down, too. CRANKY! My gates are open if anyone wants to come catalog that winter clothing from yesterday. I also have the little mini circuit car tracks out. dawnnikol , will you come hang the cute striped heart sweater in my Ables some time? I want my villagers to wear that! You can replace the fall fairisle one! ETA: Nooks is boring - LCD tv, utility sink. Black and white mama panda is outside for cataloging. Able's opens in 45 min. Turnips 136.

Good morning ladies!! I haven't been on much the last couple of days. Family time and all.
I am going to play a bit before ODS wakes up and then be off this afternoon headed home. But for now I am cleaning up my pumpkins. Remind me, better to pick each pumpkin to sell, then dig up plants and sell?

Is yours a 4-slot design? I picked that one up. Then I went looking for a 4-slot design for a poinsettia. I had no luck.

But for now I am cleaning up my pumpkins. Remind me, better to pick each pumpkin to sell, then dig up plants and sell? Even better than picking them and then digging them up would be to pick them and then leave some of the plants to grow more. I kept a small patch up near my orchard as another money-maker. They sell for 350 each and if you water them every day you'll get three pumpkins per plant. Not too bad bell-wise.
