DIY

DIY is a new feature to the Animal Crossing Series, introduced in New Horizons. The player, upon receiving their Nook Phone, will be able to find the DIY Recipes app on the home screen. This app allows the player to catalogue the DIY Recipes they receive, as well as the materials in their inventory. This app works with any DIY Workbench and allows the player to bookmark recipes, track which recipes they have crafted, and which crafted items are already in their pocket.

Materials
Materials are natural resources that can be found around the island. The player can obtain raw materials from hitting Rocks and shaking Trees around the player’s island. These resources can be crafted into items from DIY Recipes or sold to Timmy at Resident Services, though crafted items sell for more Bells than raw materials.
