One of the appeals of Nintendo's Animal Crossing series is its real-time weather and seasons. From December 15 through January 6, the festive season will be taking over player islands, regardless of which hemisphere they live in. Any pine trees on your island will be decorated, and shaking them will get you different colored ornaments you can use for crafting. If you want to get your island into the spirit of the season, several festive DIY recipes are now in the game and you can use said ornaments to make them. To get these recipes, you will need to shoot them down from the balloons that float over your island. Here's a list of every festive recipe.
