Highlights
- Animal Crossing: New Horizons offers several seasonal furniture sets, but the Bunny Day series is the only one that includes all four essential furniture items for a fully furnished room.
- The Festivale series, Cherry Blossom series, Festive series, and Tree's Bounty series all lack essential furniture items, making them less practical for outfitting an entire room.
- Each furniture series has different methods for obtaining the recipes and materials needed for crafting, such as buying recipe booklets, shooting down presents, or interacting with special characters.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons continues to surprise long-time players as they find more furniture items to craft, especially as the seasons change. From the cherry blossom series in the spring to the frozen set in winter, there are several different seasonal furniture sets to find — but which set is the most practical in terms of outfitting an entire room?
Best Xbox Games To Play If You Love Animal Crossing: New Horizons
Animal Crossing: New Horizons has enjoyed a great run on the Nintendo Switch. Xbox-only owners craving life sims have a few options.
A full furniture set consists of a table, chair, bed, and dresser, all from the same series. As long as players have one of each in their house, the Happy Home Academy will rate them well. Out of the ten different seasonal furniture series, which one is the closest to getting the bonus for a full set of furniture?
10 The Festivale Series
The Festivale set is available to players during late February or early March. While this set is colorful (and highly customizable!), it doesn’t feature any of the four essential furniture items to constitute a fully furnished room. But hey, the confetti machine is fun, right?
Where To Find The Festivale Series
Players can craft the Festivale furniture by buying the booklet of recipes from Nook’s Cranny, except for the Festivale Float, which Pave gives out. All recipes require Festivale feathers to craft.
9 The Cherry Blossom Series
The Cherry Blossom furniture is the series that players are always eager to find during the spring (the first ten days of April or October for the Northern and Southern hemispheres, respectively). However, this series doesn’t have any essential pieces; no bed, chair, or table to be seen. There are three outdoor items and some lovely plants, though.
Where To Find The Cherry Blossom Series
Players can find the recipes for Cherry Blossom furniture by shooting down presents with their slingshot. All recipes require cherry blossom petals to craft.
8 The Festive Series
Deck the halls with the Festive furniture series, only available during December. This series features three festive trees of different sizes and several large, illuminated decorations — but no essential furniture pieces. This series is good for players who want to decorate their islands for the holidays, but not so much their houses.
Animal Crossing Player Creates Neat Christmas-Themed Neighborhood
In typical early-November fashion, one Animal Crossing: New Horizons player has fully abandoned spooky season and is ready for Christmas.
Where To Find The Festive Series
Players find the Festive series from recipes gifted by villagers, either by visiting them while crafting or finding messages in bottles, and also by shooting down presents with a slingshot. The Toy Day stockings and the sleigh are both gifted to the player by Jingle on Toy Day on December 24th.
7 The Tree’s Bounty Series
The Tree’s Bounty series is the epitome of fall: leaf piles, acorns, and maple leaf accents make this series a staple for any autumnal island. While the wallpaper and flooring options can bring the outside in for a fun fall vibe, there’s only one essential furniture item in this series — the Leaf Stool. At least players can sit and bask in the Tree’s Bounty series in their homes, even if they can’t do much else.
Where To Find The Tree's Bounty Series
The Tree’s Bounty series requires acorns, pine cones, and maple leaves to craft with, found during fall (September 1 to December 10 for the Northern Hemisphere, March 1 to May 25 for the Southern Hemisphere). Recipes are found by shooting down presents with slingshots.
6 The Turkey Day Series
The Turkey Day series revolves around the Animal Crossing equivalent of Thanksgiving, taking place on the same day for players in the Northern Hemisphere. Turkey Day works as an introduction to spring for players in the Southern Hemisphere, and Franklin the turkey comes to players’ islands to cook a feast. The furniture series associated with Turkey Day comes with a grand total of two essential items: a chair and a table, ready to sit down for a grand meal.
Where To Find The Turkey Day Series
Players can buy a recipe book of all the Turkey Day crafting recipes from Nook's Cranny the day after Turkey Day, until the end of November.
5 The Mush Series
The Mush series is exactly what it says on the tin: mushrooms galore for the cottage-core fans. This series was revamped for Animal Crossing: New Horizons to include more outdoor furniture, including the Mush Parasol and the Mush Log that add some fairy-tale whimsy to any island. This series is also very customizable, with each of the furniture items having five different color variations. The Mush series boasts a stool and a table that both look like giant mushrooms. Perhaps a mushroom-themed bed would’ve been too big of a mushroom to even contemplate.
Where To Find The Mush Series
The Mush series is available via crafting with mushrooms, only available during the fall (November for Northern Hemisphere, May for Southern Hemisphere). The recipes are shot out of presents using a slingshot or found in bottles that wash up on the beach.
4 The Spooky Series
Boo! The Spooky series is only available during October for Halloween and features plenty of pumpkin-scented furniture goodies. From a massive carriage to a trick-or-treating basket, the Spooky series helps players decorate their island homes for a truly terrifying Halloween season. The Spooky series has a chair and a table that both look like halved pumpkins — perfect for some carving, candy-eating, and costume brainstorming!
Animal Crossing: New Horizons - How to Grow Pumpkins
With the arrival of Fall, leaves aren't the only thing changing in Animal Crossing: New Horizons with the addition of pumpkin gardens.
Where To Find The Spooky Series
The majority of the Spooky series crafting recipes are available to players from talking to crafting villagers, finding messages in bottles, and shooting down presents. The recipes for the Spooky garland, table setting, wand, and carriage are given to the player by Jack upon gifting him Lollipops during the Halloween event.
3 The Frozen Series
Brr… The Frozen series is made of massive ice cubes and features several different ice sculptures and outdoor items to dress up any winter-themed island. Each of the ten ice-themed furniture items has seven different color variations, and even the Three-Tiered Snowperson has a collection of different hats it can wear, so players can create a true winter wonderland with the given items. The Frozen series has a grand total of three essential furniture items: a chair, a table, and a bed. They might be a bit chilly to sit on for too long, though…
Where To Find The Frozen Series
All the Frozen furniture items are obtainable through crafting recipes, gifted to players by making perfect Snowboys during the winter (December to February for Northern Hemisphere islands, May through August for Southern Hemisphere islands). Each of the items requires Snowflakes to craft, which are caught on snowy days outside.
2 The Stars Series
The celestial Stars furniture series is perfect for any players who love space, astronomy, and even astrology, as there are twelve Zodiac-themed furniture items included in the set. There’s also a grand total of three essential furniture pieces in this set: a closet, a table, and various chairs to sit on and gaze up at the stars.
Where To Find The Stars Series
The Stars series is one of the most elusive furniture sets, only available during clear nights with shooting stars. Celeste, the astronomer sister of Blathers the museum curator, gives out the Stars recipes when the player interacts with her. All the recipes require Star Fragments to craft, found washed up on the beach the day after the shooting stars.
1 The Bunny Day Series
The Bunny Day series is another spring set, only available during the weeks leading up to Bunny Day, which happens on a Sunday in spring between March 22nd and April 25th. Even though a lot of players weren’t big fans of Bunny Day (or Zipper T. Bunny, its mysterious mascot), the furniture series is one of the most colorful, on-brand collections in the game — and also the only seasonal series to feature all four required furniture items to constitute a fully-furnished room. With the Bunny Day bed, chair, table, and wardrobe, bona fide Bunny Day fans can sit back and admire their pastel dream rooms, full of eggs and chocolate.
Where To Find The Bunny Day Series
The Bunny Day series is available via crafting recipes given by villagers, balloon presents, and bottles with a colorful band with letters from Zipper T. Bunny inside. All the Bunny Day items require eggs of various kinds to craft, which are found around the island.
