this Ignoring easter baloons and just waiting for regulars when the 4 appears on the minutes side of the clock
some recipes where also in blue (that usually contains materials) and yellow so never skipped one
at some point got also a double of the vase
I'm sorry, it sucks. I felt that way, but after investing THE WHOLE DAY in this eventually my balloons started carrying recipes. I'm getting like one recipe every hour. Don't get discouraged! eventually you'll get them
Including Isabelle’s given recipe, I have gotten the following items:
Outdoor Picnic Set
Cherry Blossom Wand
Cherry Blossom Umbrella
Cherry Blossom Pond Stone
Cherry Blossom Petal Pile
Cherry Blossom Trees Wall
Cherry Blossom Tree Branches
Sakura Wood Flooring
I got all the items except the wand just today. I basically paraded around ground level catching the petals and bugs while checking what balloons are flying in from the coast when I hear the sound.
This is honestly wishful thinking, but I felt like I was getting more cherry blossom recipes from catching all the petals. I didn’t pay attention to the balloon color because I felt pretty lucky to be getting recipes from most of the balloons I popped
Managed to grab 8 recipes so far, plus a dupe of the cherry blossom wand and some other random bamboo ones. Just spent the last half day getting the latter 6 - no help from Isabelle yet but people say when you have no announcements she will give you a freebie recipe? I think with another day's grind I should be able to nab everything.
It is very grindy and tedious gathering the recipes, but not hard once you get used to balloon spawning patterns and have a good route going for spotting them. People who are struggling - don't give up hope! Stick to patrolling your beaches and ignoring the easter balloons. I haven't noticed any sort of pattern with balloon colours either, I have had recipes spawn from all colours. It's not like ignoring the balloon will make another one spawn faster either, and I've gotten a nice stack of iron plus a gold nugget from them. It will take a lot of hours but they are achievable.
I got the outdoor picnic set from a balloon but I lowkey wish it was a different recipe since I know that Isabelle sends it out eventually :')
I've just been standing by the beach the whole day popping balloons,, I usually get clay or bells rip,,
I had to spend the last couple of days actively hunting balloons, but I finally have everything but the wood wall and floor, which are the two I care about the least anyway. I'll still try to get them, but I needed the other ones for my bathroom.
OK, so I started catching cherry blossom petals, and the next two balloons i got were cherry blossom recipes. Maybe it's more likely if you have cherry blossom petals in your inventory?
Whoa whoa wait- there's other sakura recipes??!?!?
Yeah, no, I've gotten Zip(per). I've only just learned about watching balloon color for different things so I'm going to start being a little picky with what balloons I shoot down from here on. I really would LOVE some cherry blossom recipes and at the least I want to give some to my mom (she loves sakuras and just got the game) but I can't do that if they don't show up.
No one talks to you about it. You have to catch the pink petals and pop balloons in the hopes you will get recipes to craft pretty cherry blossom furniture.
Do I need to update my game for these balloons??? I do not have wifi!!! Therfore have not ever updated.. also tom nook gave me a picnic set I dont even know where isabelle is the picnic set from tom is not sakura themed WHERES ISABELLE
Took a lot of sitting on the beach. Almost 4 hours, but I just finished my Cherry blossom DIYs. 14/14. Last one was the picnic set that Isabelle never gave me
