One of the hot new features in the Animal Crossing: New Horizons summer update is a new set of Mermaid DIY furniture recipes. The set includes flooring and wallpaper, and each recipe requires at least one pearl and some different shells.

While you’ll want to make beach-combing a regular habit if you haven’t already, our handy Animal Crossing Mermaid DIY recipes guide is here to show you which shells you’ll need for each New Horizons Mermaid furniture piece.

Hit the Beach and Make Some Waves

Before you can even snag your first Animal Crossing Mermaid DIY recipe, you’ll need to update your game and buy a wetsuit. Then it’s time to start swimming and searching for scallops.

If you’re lucky, Pascal will show up and ask for a swap: your scallop for a Mermaid DIY recipe. It’s completely random when he shows up, unfortunately, but he can show up more than once per day. Just keep at it.

And keep diving, since you’ll need pearls. Don’t forget as well that shells regularly wash up on the beach throughout the day.

If you clear them out, check back in 30 minutes, as many players have reported up to 16 new shells re-appear every 30 minutes. Or you could just gather what’s there and sell them while you wait for the refresh too.
