Sprite for the DIY Recipe app on the Nook Phone.

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 allows the player to catalog 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.

Initially, Tom Nook allows the Player to use his DIY Workbench, which is located in the tent that Tom and Timmy share. Upon interacting with it for the first time, Tom Nook teaches the Player the basic mechanics of crafting. Tom Nook also teaches the Player the DIY recipe to make their own workbench. The Player has the option to craft in Tom Nook's tent, or their own workbench; each workbench allows access to the Player's DIY Recipe catalog.

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, though crafted items sell for more Bells than raw materials.

Material	Location	Sell Price
Clump of Weeds	Ground	10 Bells
Tree Branch	Tree (via shaking)	5 Bells
Stone	Rock (via Axe or Shovel)	75 Bells

Recipes

Recipes are the largest part of the DIY system.The DIY Recipes allow the player to actually craft items. The player doesn’t get many DIY Recipes to begin with, having only received a handful from Tom Nook after taking DIY workshop. As the player progresses, they will encounter more methods of obtaining Recipes. The player can receive recipes in the mail and from villagers on the island. They can be bought from Timmy at Resident Services or through Nook Miles +. The player may find a glass bottle on the beach and discover a DIY Recipe inside. Fishing trash out of the ocean and rivers might inspire a stroke of genius and reveal new Recipes. The possibilities are endless. So to any Resident Representative, Tentative Remodeler, and Seashore Seashell Seller, creativity waits behind every tree, under every rock, and maybe at the end of a fishing line.
