Halloween Event in Animal Crossing New Horizons

Pumpkins – DIY crafting recipes

As I mentioned, there will be pumpkins – loads of them. Check out our ACNH Pumpkins guide to know the details of how to plant, grow, farm and harvest pumpkins just in time for spooky season. You need to buy Pumpkin starts/seeds first and then go ahead with the process of growing the Pumpkins. You will find all the steps for that in our linked guide.

With pumpkins made, you can even use them as crafting materials in Pumpkin DIY recipes. You can even change the Pumpkin colors if you’d like. The items that you will be able to craft with pumpkins are Spooky Set items and furniture like a Spooky arch, carriage, fence, garland, lantern and more. Use these to decorate your island and get ready for Halloween festivities.
