Use Them for DIY crafting!

How do you find materials?

The quickest way to get materials is by hitting the various objects throughout town (trees and large rocks) with an axe (or shovel, if hitting a rock) to make them drop materials. These objects will give you up to 8 materials per day.

In addtion, you can also get materials like weeds by simply picking them up. Villagers will occassionally give you materials, and you may even find them by shooting down balloons with a slingshot.
