A fan of Nintendo's Animal Crossing: New Horizons shares that their wife created adorable clay ornaments as an early Christmas present for them. For members of the life sim's fanbase and community, producing handmade items based on Animal Crossing: New Horizons is probably a great gift idea for the holidays.
With Christmas and New Year fast approaching, the gaming community seems to also be getting into the holiday spirit. Online games have already rolled out their seasonal Yuletide events, and fans have been gifting their friends with items from their shared fandoms or decking out their homes with video game-themed decorations. The Animal Crossing: New Horizons community seems to be no exception. Some decided to celebrate the holiday cheer in-game by re-decorating their island home in a Christmas theme. Others, such as this fan with the holiday clay ornaments, chose to display their love for ACNH in their own living space.
On Reddit, user kinglucent shared a photo of the Animal Crossing: New Horizons ornaments that their wife gave to them as an early Christmas present. In the image, the Redditor is holding three clay ornaments in one hand. Each of the ornaments represents iconic images from the life sim. This includes the Animal Crossing: New Horizons leaf logo and the faces of the famous DJ K.K. Slider and island assistant Isabelle. Avid fans of the Nintendo title will instantly recognize these items, given how accurate and detailed they are, despite seemingly being handmade.
Unfortunately, kinglucent did not share how their wife crafted the Animal Crossing: New Horizons Christmas ornaments. So, fans will not be able to replicate the items. There was also no indication from the Redditor that their wife was planning to sell these ornaments in the future. However, this may change if the game's community expresses more support and interest for the Redditor's wife's clay-sculpting endeavors. A comment on the thread said that the ornaments look amazing, and that the Redditor's wife has a lot of talent for being able to make such items.
Hopefully more of the Animal Crossing: New Horizons community members upvotes and comments on kinglucent's Reddit thread. Detailed, hand-made items like these clay ornaments deserve more recognition, and the life sim's fanbase would probably love to see more of these kinds of items. With a large roster of Animal Crossing: New Horizons villagers, hopefully the Redditor's wife will be inspired to make more clay ornaments based on the Nintendo video game.
Animal Crossing: New Horizon is now available for the Nintendo Switch.
