Behind the Scene: Planning and Visualization Step
This is before I (very recently) found out how to use Stardew planner v3... (instead of clicking upload picture, I always clicked upload save, and get very confused when the picture doesn't load)

But drawing it like this on my phone gallery, I think, has more freedom than just using the planner, especially if I am going to incorporate a lot of modded items/structures. That said, I admire people who can masterfully and creatively decorate in the planner! I've seen inspiring works posted in the community.
Usually, I start by going "shopping" through my Happy Home Designer catalog, and place the items I think would suit the area, but not in an organized way yet. After that I freestyle the placement a bit, before actually planning out my layout. And sometimes, I scrap or alter the design. I'm still struggling designing my cellar... Send some links to your favorite cellar design please heheh. For the areas I didn't like after actually putting it in-game, I usually paint the screenshot over and sketch over it.
For bigger maps I can even make a gif of the progression, because I draw and progress bit by bit 🫡 it's not done yet though, just a bit more to go!
Did I do a good job in bringing the vision to life? 😅
