Hello everyone! I'm hoping to turn this thread into something bigger at some point, and if it works out, to make it all nice and pretty, but for now, I'll get down to the dirty details.
I'm starting my island over again, and while I'm bringing a lot of my old items over, I realized I'm losing so many DIYs, and there's some items I don't have ordered I'll be losing because I just don't have the energy to order 5 items at a time. I also find I can get very introverted when people come to visit my island, and feel quite shy, haha. So I thought it would be neat instead if I could add some friends who might mail me some furniture on letters or through their catalogue, so I don't have to go to their item, say thanks and then run away at top speed to their airport and wish I didn't feel rude doing so.
So! A proposal to everyone:
Say you add someone here, you become mutual friends, and then each day, you select an item in your catalogue, an item from your Nook's or Able's, or a DIY card you have laying on the beach or when your villagers are crafting, and you mail it to that person. If they already have the item/DIY you send, they now have an item to trade, or an item to forward on to someone else they may have decided to penpal with! Having multiple friends ensures a wide variety of items, helping people fill their catalogues with new color combos and and flesh out their DIY logs to let them create a bunch of new things.
If you're interested primarily in clothing, DIYs or furniture only, you could specify as such so people will only add you if they're able to meet this request. We could also use this to send friends a few fruit once in awhile, to get some fruit diversity going around! ' v' )9
If you'd like to try this out, just leave your in - game name, your island name and your FC here. If you have any specifics on what you would like to receive ( please try to be as vague and encompassing as possible rather than saying ' stuff from the cute set ' or something, as this would be more fun as a long - term thing and not just sending like 5 items and never doing it again ), also note them! And as a last note, if you're comfortable with people visiting your island randomly whenever your gates are open, you can also say people are welcome to come over at any time without inquiring first, or you can say you would rather they don't.
As for me:
IGN: Taelia
Island: Mimosa Bay
Native Fruit: Cherries
Friend Code: SW-7121-4016-9053
Wishlist: Extra DIYs, and soft / light colored furniture and clothing, but anything at all is neato!
If my gate is open, you can come over, but bls forgive me if I do not talk or follow you around much! I have no set rules on my island; once my gate is open I've finished my daily shopping and picked any fruits I chose to pick, so you can help yourself to any leftover fruit and shop items! You can also pick any flowers not behind fences!
