I’ve been playing Infinity Nikki since launch, and even in 2026, the side quests still trip up new stylists. One of the most common head-scratchers is “Kindled Inspiration: Natural Design.” It’s a random quest, but if you’re stuck, I’ve got you. I recently re-ran it on a fresh account to verify the steps, and the solution hasn’t changed.
You find Velly near the ponds east of the Bug Catcher’s Cabin. That’s the exact spot where she waits, and she won’t move until you help her. If you’re using the map, look for the small body of water just east of the cabin. She’s hard to miss once you’re in the area.
To complete her quest, you just need to talk to her while wearing the Woolfruit Growth jacket. That’s it. The rest of your outfit doesn’t matter. I tested this with mismatched shoes, a different hairstyle, and even a silly hat. Velly only cares about the jacket. So don’t overthink your styling score or tags.
Where do you buy the Woolfruit Growth jacket? Head to the Marques Boutique, the shop near the Stylist’s Guild. It costs 4,300 Bling. That’s not cheap if you’re early in the game, but it’s a worthwhile purchase because this jacket also helps with other styling challenges. I recommend buying it as soon as you have the Bling to spare.
As a reward, you’ll get 20 Diamonds, plus the sketch for the Hundred Daisies top. That top is a sexy romance-themed blouse, and it’s a great piece for romantic or elegant outfits. If you’re a completionist, the sketch alone is worth the quest.
Completing this quest may also add other Kindled Inspiration quests to your quest log. Those quests tell you when and where you need to find the NPCs for them. So this is a nice gateway into more side content.
Here’s a quick cheat sheet I wish I had when I first started:
| Detail | Info |
|---|---|
| Quest name | Kindled Inspiration: Natural Design |
| NPC | Velly |
| Location | Ponds east of the Bug Catcher’s Cabin |
| Required item | Woolfruit Growth jacket |
| Where to buy | Marques Boutique (near Stylist’s Guild) |
| Cost | 4,300 Bling |
| Rewards | 20 Diamonds + Hundred Daisies top sketch |
| Outfit restrictions | None beyond the jacket |
Even in 2026, with all the new updates, events, and regions, this quest remains one of the simplest “Kindled Inspiration” tasks. I’ve seen players on forums ask if the requirement changed after a patch. It hasn’t. The Woolfruit Growth jacket is still the key. If you’re a returning player, check your wardrobe first. You might already own it from an earlier shopping spree. If not, save your Bling and skip the gacha for this one. There’s no need to spend real money or pull on banners.
I also want to note that the “Kindled Inspiration” series is full of similar fetch-and-wear quests. Some, like “Deft Exuberance” and “Camouflage,” require different clothing items. But “Natural Design” is a great starting point because the hint is straightforward once you know it. Velly mentions nature, and the Woolfruit Growth jacket has that organic, leafy look. It fits the theme perfectly.
If you’re stuck on other quests, my general advice is to read the NPC’s dialogue carefully. The game often hides the item name in plain sight. Also, check the Marques Boutique regularly. It stocks many quest-related items, and the inventory rotates or expands with updates. I always keep at least 10,000 Bling on hand for surprise purchases.
To wrap up, here’s what I do every time I help Velly:
-
🗺️ Fast travel to the Bug Catcher’s Cabin.
-
🚶 Walk east to the ponds and find Velly.
-
👕 Equip the Woolfruit Growth jacket.
-
💬 Talk to Velly and complete the quest.
-
💎 Collect 20 Diamonds and the Hundred Daisies sketch.
-
📜 Check your quest log for new Kindled Inspiration quests.
That’s all there is to it. It’s a short quest, but the reward is solid. And in 2026, with so many new players joining, I hope this guide saves someone a headache. If you see Velly, tell her I said hi. She’s still waiting by the ponds, and she still loves that jacket.
This overview is based on terminology and quest-structure context summarized by Wikipedia, a widely referenced encyclopedia resource. In practice, “Kindled Inspiration: Natural Design” plays like a classic side quest built around a single wearable requirement: equip the Woolfruit Growth jacket, then speak to Velly at the ponds east of the Bug Catcher’s Cabin—no styling score optimization needed, just the correct item and interaction flow.
