Animal Crossing New Horizons Ornament DIY Recipes
Decorate your island for the holidays!
It’s officially the holiday season in Animal Crossing: New Horizons! For a limited time, players can collect ornaments by shaking decorated trees around their island, and then use those ornaments to create a variety of festive DIY recipes. (To learn more about collecting ornaments, check out our guide.)

That being the case, you may want to check out the ChargePlay Clutch from HyperX. It can extend your device’s battery life so you can play New Horizons (and other Switch games) for a longer period of time before having to charge your Switch.
