@moretea I've just read that if you have more than 9, it brings the island rating down quite annoying when you just want to share!
I have also just read though, that you can store them in the recycling box! That might be worth doing.. even though I'm ridiculously proud of my help yourself diy area!
Apparently, on each 8x8 tile area; if more than 45 tiles are covered in furniture, you will slso be downgraded. I have just spent ages trying to make a nice market square area.. which will definitely have used loads of squares and furniture! Hmmm, perhaps I'll just live with bring a 4 star establishment lol!
