Animal Crossing Holiday Season: How To Get Tree Ornaments And All The Recipes


 If you start Animal Crossing: New Horizons immediately , you can enjoy blinking fairy lights that shine in some trees on the island. But the tree decorations not only look beautiful at Christmas, they also have their uses.


We'll show you how you can make colorful Christmas balls from the little trees and use the new instructions to make your own Christmas decorations.


Holiday tree decorations in Animal Crossing: New Horizons

Toy Day starts in New Horizons in a few days . To create the right Christmas atmosphere, you should decorate your island a little with the help of the new instructions that you can win as usual from the balloons that fly over your ACNH island. Now all you need is the colorful tree balls...


How do I get the tree decorations? To do this, you simply have to shake the decorated conifers and colorful Christmas baubles fall out, with which you can put your recipes into action. Keep in mind, however, that you may have to shake it more often to get a ball. The chance of not receiving anything for the time being is 80 percent.


What if I don't have any conifers on my island? If you don't have decorated fir trees because you're more of a deciduous tree fan, you can get tree decorations from Melinda in the service center.


How long is the holiday season? From December 15, 2020 to January 6, 2021 you can shake the ornate trees. As long as the balls remain available.


In order to be able to implement all 13 handicraft instructions plus 2 bonus recipes , you must finally have the following total number of balls:


  • 36 red jewelry
  • 43 blue jewelry
  • 42 gold jewelry
