June is officially here, and for players in the Northern Hemisphere, it marks the start of summer in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Along with a new assortment of bugs and fish to catch, you can find a new type of crafting material called summer shells washed up on the beach in your town and on Mystery Islands.
Summer shells are a distinct blue color, and much like the cherry blossom petals you could collect in spring, they are used in crafting special seasonal DIY recipes. As before, these recipes will only be available for a limited time, from June to August (or December to February in the Southern Hemisphere). Acquiring them also relies quite a bit on chance, as you’ll primarily need to shoot them down from balloons or find them washed up in bottles.
Since the summer shell recipes are only around for a brief period, you’ll want to get your hands on them while you can. To help you out, we’ve rounded up all the summer shell DIY recipes we’ve found–along with the materials you need to craft them–below.
