How to Decorate House in Stardew Valley

 Discover creative tips and ideas for decorating your house in Stardew Valley. Transform your space into a cozy retreat with our expert guide!

Guide to personalizing your farmhouse in Stardew Valley! From the humble beginnings of a one-room cabin to the vast array of furniture, wallpaper, and flooring options, you've clearly laid out the journey of interior design in the game. Let's recap the key aspects of making your Stardew Valley home truly your own:

From Basic Cabin to Dream Home: Customizing Your Farmhouse

The initial small cabin serves as a cozy starting point, with its basic furniture and wallpaper reflecting your chosen farm layout. However, the potential for transformation is immense, allowing players to express their unique style.

The Foundation: Basic Farmhouse Designs

• Farm Layout Influence: You correctly point out that the initial decor (furniture, walls, and floors) is tied to the farm type you select at the beginning of the game. This provides a subtle starting aesthetic.

Unlocking Unlimited Creativity: The Furniture Catalogue

• The Ultimate Tool: The Furniture Catalogue, purchased from Robin at the Carpenter’s Shop for a hefty 200,000g after your first farmhouse upgrade, is the key to unlimited design freedom.
• Endless Access: Once acquired, it grants free and unlimited access to every furniture item in its inventory.
• Inventory Placement: Selecting an item from the catalogue directly adds it to your inventory (if you have space).
• Variety of Items: The catalogue boasts a wide selection, including fireplaces, beds, lights, rugs, and even fish tanks for aspiring aquarium enthusiasts.
• Dual Purpose: Interestingly, the Furniture Catalogue itself can also be used as a display table.

Alternative Acquisition: Buying and Finding Furniture

• Robin's Shop: You can also purchase furniture directly from Robin at the Carpenter’s Shop. Her daily stock is random and new each day.
• The Traveling Cart: The mysterious merchant near the Secret Woods offers another avenue for furniture acquisition on Fridays and Sundays (until 8 pm). Her prices are variable (250-2500g), and her stock also changes daily and randomly.
• Museum Donations: Donating items to the Museum can also reward you with unique furniture pieces, encouraging exploration and collection.
• Placement and Rotation: Furniture can be moved and rotated within your house, offering flexibility in design. However, not all items can be rotated.
• Outdoor Placement (with Caveats): While most furniture can be placed outside, be warned that villagers walking through the same tile will destroy it.

Expanding Your Palette: New Furniture Catalogues in Stardew Valley 1.6

The 1.6 update significantly expanded customization options with five new themed furniture catalogues:

• Junimo Catalogue:
  • Where to Find: Traveling Cart.
  • Cost: 70,000g.

  • How to Unlock: Very small (0.2%) chance to appear when searching a trash can, but only after searching at least 50 trash cans.
  • Theme: Likely features quirky and unconventional items found in the town's refuse.

The rotational nature of the Traveling Cart's stock for most of these new catalogues encourages players to check back regularly.

Exclusive Desert Festival Decor:

• Unlock Requirement: Repair the bus to access the Calico Desert and unlock the Desert Festival in Spring Year 2.
• Currency: Exclusive furniture and wallpaper are purchased using Calico Eggs, a unique currency obtainable only during the festival (Spring 15-17).
• Wallpaper Vendors (20 Calico Eggs each): Jodi, Jas, Marnie, Leo, Evelyn, Kent, and Robin offer exclusive wallpaper. Remember that these wallpapers are single-use.
• Furniture Vendors (prices vary): You provided a comprehensive list of exclusive furniture items and thevillagers who sell them, along with their Calico Egg costs. This offersunique decorative pieces not found elsewhere.

The Mysterious Cursed Mannequin:

• Rare Drop: Cursed Mannequins are a rare drop from Haunted Skulls in the Mines.
• Overnight Transformation: Leaving a Cursed Mannequin in a room has a chance to randomly change the wallpaper and flooring overnight.
• Unique Aesthetics: The wallpaper and flooring resulting from the Cursed Mannequin cannotbe obtained through any other means. It's a gamble for a unique (andpotentially spooky) look.

Other Unique Wallpaper and Flooring Sources:

• Casino (Calico Desert): The Casino offers exclusive wallpaper for Qi Coins (10,000 and 100,000).
• Festival of Ice & Feast of the Winter Star: Christmas-themed wallpaper can be bought from the Traveling Cart at the Festival of Ice (500g) and later from Pierre at the Feast of the Winter Star.
• Mystery Boxes: Breaking open Mystery Boxes can sometimes yield a unique blue wallpaper with yellow question marks.

Your guide truly showcases the depth of customization available in StardewValley, empowering players to create a farmhouse that reflects theirindividual style and preferences. From the early-game basics to the rare and unique finds in the late game and special events, there's always anew way to personalize your virtual home!
