minor dni! thank you! 🙇🏽♀️
another thing to note: DIYs are not limited to one color! I keep seeing this claim everywhere! No! That's not true!
I've gotten recipes for ALL of the colored balloons (red, blue, green, yellow)!
Now for the regular balloons (red, blue, green, yellow), those spawn for me once every 10 minutes, with the minute ending in either 5 or 0. Example would be one spawning at 1:10, the next one at 1:20, etc
Disclaimer: not sure if this will help everyone, but it certainly helped me. This is just a way for me to inform anyone on how I managed to do it. :) So...sorry if it doesn't seem to work for you! >.<
Address the glitch first, which is part of the reason why I'm making this. I believe a few days ago, people on reddit started noticing a problem with balloons spawning; once you pop 300 balloons, they won't spawn anymore. Not everyone has the glitch, so keep that in mind.
If you've noticed, balloons will spawn on one side of the island during the day, and the other side when it is nighttime. Every island is different, I believe, but for reference, my island does right side spawning during the day, and left side in the night once it hits 6PM.
Another thing: apparently Isabelle gives you one of the recipes? She gives out the outdoor picnic one?? I didn't get it from her smh, I got it from a balloon LOL how cruel
Important to note: the egg looking balloons do not give out the sakura DIYs, they only give out bunny day DIYs or sky eggs. So with the glitch not being patched up yet, I would advise to simply ignore them. They spawn more often than the regular ones as well, I get like 3/min.
With this in mind this is how I did it: I actually had a meteor shower last night and I stood on the side where balloons spawn for me during the night (left side), and I was on one spot either making wishes or keeping an eye out for balloons.
DIYs won't be given to you back to back, you just have to test your luck and see if you manage to snag one from the balloons, but it can happen! I got the clock and the pouch back to back, so be wary of that. Patience is key!
Sometimes they switch times, though I don't exactly know the circumstances, it does happen. Today my spawning jumped from 12:20 to 12:30, skipped 12:40, and spawned again on 12:45. Not really sure how that happens, unfortunately. ;;
forgot to mention: it IS possible to get multiples! I've gotten 3 of the sakura umbrella DIYs yesterday lol. sooo if you do get an extra, it might be nice ti give it away to a friend or trade! :)
CONFIRMED: The latest update to Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Version 1.1.3, fixes the Balloon Present glitch where balloons would not spawn after shooting down 300 presents.

umm I think that's it! basically just hunt down the REGULAR balloons, spawning every ~10mins, and be patient! they will eventually get to you! Happy hunting!! any q's pls dm me or let me know and I'll be happy to answer them. :)
so I would stop from making wishes and check for the balloons on 9:10, then again on 9:20, etc. When I didn't see one for the next spawn (ex. 9:30) I would wait 5 more mins to see if it alternated to 9:35, of not, I waited until 9:40, and so on.
I did ignore the egg balloons and kept an eye on the clock as well to keep up with the minutes. particularly watching when the end digit would land in 0 or 5, since it seemed to alternate, but was mostly ending in 0.
Also important to note: not sure if this is true, but I've seen people claim that balloons won't spawn if you're waiting right along the beach/the edge of the island. I didn't particularly wait for them on the edge, but I was next to the sand, since both sides--
extremely late my bad fkshdjdj but make sure there’s a spot where your present can land! if there isn’t, it’ll just shrink and disappear!! make sure it can land on the ground as well. I’ve had some accidentally fall in the river/disappear bc it landed on boulders.
plus something else I’ve noticed! egg balloons fly a bit faster than regular balloons. probably helpful cus you can kinda tell which they are from a distance (at least I can)... 😅
I’m sorry but I just don’t understand the concept of calling people out for something you personally don’t like. If you don’t like hurt/angst then just mute/block. There is no reason to harass people over content that you don’t like. You are responsible for curating your feed.
dont buy it y’all... itll start a domino effect where media will start to be exculsively behind a paywall... also the main actress supports the police brutality in Hong Kong
a few people have asked me if it was okay to qrt the post to link it to others — and my answer is yes!! you don’t have to ask!! that is the point of the post! 😊 just don’t qrt to say something rude — I can’t personally do anything if you aren’t getting any ;;
I ranted abt this in priv but reposting someone’s fanfics and claiming them as your own is a terrible thing to do. 😔 nothing is worse for writers than seeing someone reposting them and taking credit for them too 😭😭😭
villagers really go ???🤔🤔??? when you walk into their house to check if they’re crafting a DIY and then immediately leave but if you talk to them they get passive aggressive with you. “oh, you’re back. again.” yes judy my bad girl im looking for the DIY smh
some kid stole my brothers iPhone yesterday and I tracked it down to the address and my mom went to get it and she was gonna catch fade with the kid’s mom 💀
wait what if we did a write this in your style for creek prompt, imagine reading the same prompt over and over again by diff authors and seeing their own portrayal 😭
so glad I’m not the only one experiencing the glitch where a villager will will make the thinking noise and the chat bubble appears right after I talk to them 😭
