Preparing Plots for New Villagers

After the bridge is built, Tom Nook will ask you to prepare three plots of land for new villagers. He'll give you three housing kits. For each plot, you'll need to craft specific furniture items (three indoor, three outdoor) and place them on the designated plot. The required items vary but are usually simple DIY recipes you've already learned or can easily acquire. You'll also need to gather a certain number of flowers. While preparing these plots, you can visit Mystery Islands using Nook Miles Tickets to invite new villagers. If you don't invite anyone, random villagers will move in. Once all three plots are ready, new villagers will start moving in over the next few days.
