Animal Crossing: New Horizons has been keeping many of us sane during lockdown, and I went down a bit of an Etsy rabbit hole this morning, amazed at the range of Animal Crossing inspired items you can now buy from some super talented UK sellers.
I’ve selected some of my absolute favourites to share here on Mama Geek, and a few of these may have also fallen into my virtual basket as I made this post! Let’s face it, many of these are pretty irresistible…
Jewellery
I love a good pair of unusual earrings; I have multiple LEGO pairs, some made from pebbles, and the most gorgeous pair of enamelled angel wings from a local seller. So, when I saw the range of different Animal Crossing jewellery pieces you can get from Etsy I was so excited. Here are some of my favourites:
These gorgeous Bag of Bells Earrings by seller Monsieur Matanee Gifts are handcrafted from polymer clay and then painted with acrylic paints. I think these are so cute and whimsical!
Beka also makes Animal Crossing inspired pin badges, necklaces and magnets, along with Disney inspired bracelets and custom painted shoes.
This Animal Crossing badge bundle by seller Hatti Tattoo features simple but effective illustrations of the Nook leaf, fossil, turnip & peach, each on complementary solid colour background.
Hatti also has some really lovely prints of her Animal Crossing inspired illustrations for sale which are really fun, so check those out too.
I love these 3D Printed Fossil Earrings from seller MarshMakes. They are available in multiple colours, and as danglies as well as studs.
Marsh also sells decorative models of fossils and pin badges, as well as a super funky Gyroid which you can use as an indoor planter.
These simple but effective acrylic Animal Crossing Leaf Earrings from Beth’s Gift Shop are really sweet, and also available as danglies in addition to studs.
Beth also creates a whole range of quirky jewellery, much of which is Disney inspired. I’m definitely adding her shop to my favourites list! I may have already made a small order… shh, don’t tell James.
This Stitches Wooden Charm Necklace from seller Lisa Kelsall Design is so sweet! Stitches just moved onto my island so this one definitely caught my eye.
Lisa has a whole range of stickers, pin badges, key rings and necklaces in her Etsy shop with products inspired by Harry Potter, Star Wars and Pokemon as well as her Animal Crossing range, along with some cult classic and nostalgia themed items.
If you want something a little more detailed than Beth’s earrings above, these Animal Crossing Inspired Leaf Earrings from seller Jess Adams Design are really pretty.
Jess also offers a whole range of nature inspired jewellery, including lots of pieces featuring Monstera leaves and stars.
In addition to the earrings, Jess has this gorgeous matching Leaf Necklace available to buy.
Jess has also created a keyring using this design, which is available in her Etsy shop.
These adorable Animal Crossing inspired Handmade Clay faces from seller Possum Crafts can be orders as pins or necklaces, allowing you to show some villager pride! The Celeste one is so sweet, personally I’d love that on a necklace.
In addition to her Animal Crossing themed items, Atlanta creates & sells a huge range of jewellery including cosplay pieces, D&D themed items, and lots of great statement pieces.
Seller Boo Ba Loos has a whole range of Animal Crossing inspired earrings, allowing you to get your favourite villagers and characters as both stud earrings or danglies, or even on a charm bracelet or hair grip.
This seller also designed and listed a pair of Animal Crossing coloured joycon earrings at my request, and I love the way they turned out! I’ve got my order in and can’t wait for them to arrive.
In addition to the huge animal crossing range, they have loads of different pieces available including loads of animal designs – they are definitely worth checking out.
Stationery
I am an unashamed stationery addict. This is not a surprise to anyone who reads my blog, at this point! There are some really lovely Animal Crossing inspired stationery products on Etsy – here are a few that I liked the best:
I’m a big kid when it comes to stickers and love to collect them, use them in my planner and notebooks, and decorate my iPad case too. These Animal Crossing inspired sticker sheets by seller The Dew Drop Designs are really cute, and a lovely selection of iconic items from the game.
Georgia has a huge range of adorable stickers, pin badges, and other items all illustrated in her cute style.
I love this Personalised Animal Crossing Inspired Birthday Card from seller Peach and Mimi. You can customise the card to include the recipient’s name, age, birthdate, and island name, so Tom Nook can wish them a very happy birthday.
Amelia has a whole range of really lovely cards, stickers, and other stationery.
This set of Animal Crossing notebooks from seller Sticker Mc Stickerface (Amazing name!) are really sweet – and I always need more notebooks, no matter how many I have hidden away in my office.

This Animal Crossing Positivity/Motivation Sticker Pack Set from seller Sleepiest Designs is really fun & cute – and full of good vibes and affirmations.

This Bulletin Board Notepad from seller Natterboxx Store is really sweet, with Isabelle featured in the corner, leaving plenty of space to jot down notes.
Natalie also sells a variety of enamel pins, stationery, and accessories on her Etsy store, including some pretty adorable washi tapes and zipper pouches.
This Animal Crossing Sticker Sheet by seller Amy Lesko is really whimsical and sweet, and includes some really fantastic illustrations of iconic Animal Crossing characters and items. This is one of the items that managed to fall into my digital basket as I browsed the site!
Amy also sells a whole range of products using her enviable “funky girly illustration” skills, including enamel pins, button badges, and sticker sheets.
Nooklings Tommy and Timmy are featured on this Animal Crossing Birthday Card from seller jmsillustrations, and it is pretty darn adorable. Their signature trait of repeating/echoing the last word the other says is included, along with some AC balloon gifts.
Jennifer also sells Animal Crossing stickers and takes custom commissions so you can get your own in game avatar as a print and/or sticker – she can even illustrate your real-life pets in the Animal Crossing style.
This Animal Crossing Sticker Sheet from seller Luna Creations is packed with loads of different items and bugs from the game – there is even a pitfall seed and every type of fruit. These small stickers are perfect for planners or bullet journals.
Sorrel sells a variety of colourful gifts including greetings cards, stickers and earrings.
The girls and I love to collect interesting and unique washi tape, and this Animal Crossing washi tape collection from seller Jesse Illustrates is amazing! You can buy them individually, or as a bundle of 5 rolls. I managed to resist… for now. I think these will be coming to live in my collection at some point!
Jessica also sells badges, keyrings and pocket mirrors in her store, as well as a very funky AC inspired tea towel which is featured later in this post.
These Villager Sticker Packs from seller Chanel Draws are really sweetly illustrated and perfect for sticking on laptops or cases to show off your favourite villagers. You get 8 stickers per pack, with two of each featured villager.

I love the watercolour fruits on this Animal Crossing Fruit Pencil Case from seller Sasha Stowe, which would be an ideal gift for both fans and non-fans of the game.
Sasha also offers the same design on a range of products including a mug, tote bag, and necklaces. In addition to these AC inspired products, she sells a large selection of gifts and artworks featuring her illustrations and some really gorgeous glass pieces too.
Keyrings
Keyrings are such a fun little gift which can double up as charms – I love to add them to the zippers on my handbags, as well as my keys. I also display my favourites Harry Potter ones on my noticeboard in my office! Here are a couple of island inspired keyrings I was ever so tempted to buy:
I really like this dangling Animal Crossing Present with Balloon Keychain by seller Sahara Sundays, which has a really simple but effective aesthetic to it.
Grace sells a range of clothing, gifts and artworks including quite a few Animal Crossing inspired items. My favourites from her range are the confetti, leaf trinket dish, and Dodo airlines keychain.
As the mother of a penguin obsessed nine year old, these Animal Crossing Penguin Acrylic Keychain by seller Pingki Penguin caught my eye immediately. These keychains feature Roald on one side and Aurora (who is currently living on the girls’ island) on the other.
Sarah also sells some other penguin goodies, as well as Roald sticker sheets.
These Animal Crossing Keyring Plush Toys from seller Arjun Creations are adorable, and available in a number of designs; Tom Nook, Leaf, Bass, Bell Bag, and Turnip.
This seller also has a number of different 3D printed Animal Crossing products in their store, along with a whole variety of gaming and movie related items.
As any dedicated player will tell you, every morning each user can get a message bottle in the game, and now you can have a miniature one with you at all times with this New Horizons DIY Recipe Bottle Keychain from seller Kawaii Krafts Designs.
Jade actually specialises in PokeBall terrariums which are amazing and cover all sorts of themes such as Disney and Spyro, in addition to having Pokemon themed greetings cards and custom painted plant pots in her store.
These Animal Crossing Amiibo Keyrings from seller Lou Draws Creations look great but also allow you to have your favourite residents visit and move into your island, as they work as amiibos in the game.
Right now, these are the only products in Louise’s store but with such a cute style of illustration let’s hope she expands her range soon.
These Miniature Nintendo Switch Game Keychains from seller Misfit Toys are so ridiculously cute. They are available in all sorts of designs and, although these ones are purely decorative, you can also get some that can open up and store your game cards.
If your favourite game isn’t available, the seller is happy to take requests, too. They also sell miniature PS4 and xbox game keychains, and you can even get a pair of mini Animal Crossing game earrings!
Other Gifts
There are a whole range of other types of gifts available, in addition to the above – everything from mugs to t-shirts can be found on Etsy, and pretty much everything in between. There are some amazing pieces of art, useful items, and even make it yourself items. Here are my top picks:
The Able Sisters are a daily stop for me in game so I can check out the different outfits they have in store – what better way to show your love of the pair than with this Able Sisters Tote Bag from seller Frisky Business?
They have all sorts of other Animal Crossing goodies in their store too, including mousemats, mugs, phone cases, water bottles, and even air fresheners for your car!
This Custom Animal Crossing embroidery piece by seller Stitch in the Sky is just amazing – what a gorgeous piece of art for your wall! The listing includes some other examples of different villagers they have done also, and you can commission whichever villager you prefer.
In their store they have a few ready-to-buy pieces too, of some of the most popular New Horizons villagers.
These sweet (& useful!) little Illustrated ACNH Pocket Mirrors by seller Illustrated by Aimee feature fan favourites Daisy-Mae, Isabelle and K.K. Slider. With free UK shipping, this one slipped into my virtual basket too – oops!
In addition to the mirrors, Aimee sells a wide range of art prints, greetings cards and badges, including a whole collection inspired by the game.
I love a good mug to drink my coffee in, and we have a growing collection of geeky mugs in our kitchen – this Personalised Animal Crossing Town Mug from seller Max Print Designs would fit right in! Customise it to your island with the name, island fruit, grass type, and start date. You can even buy the matching coaster.
In addition to this fab mug, they have a whole collection of Animal Crossing inspired mugs, coasters and mouse pads in their store, alongside a number of other humorous & geeky designs.
If you’re anything like me, you have a growing collection of Dodo Airlines merch in-game – and now you can get something in real life, too – this Slim Dodo Airlines Phone Case from seller What Agenda. It’s available for loads of different phone types, too – not just iPhones.
This seller also has a variety of colours available of their Dodo design, alongside a whole range of Animal Crossing inspired products such as face coverings, lunch boxes, AirPod cases and clothing.
For cross stitch fans, this sweet little Animal Cross Leaf Cross Stitch kit from seller Little Stitch TX is beginner friendly, and comes with the needle, cotton and Aida needed to complete the project – which would also make a nice greetings card.
Saffron’s store is full of quirky cross stitch patterns and kits, as well as some funny modern needle minders.
If you want to experience the tropical smells of your island, this Animal Crossing: New Horizons inspired scented candle from seller Beacon Candles might be ideal for you. Decorated with colourful wax melt shells, this candle has a beach scent with main notes of mango, melon, pear, strawberries and coconut
Loz makes “scented candles for nerds, by nerds” with candles inspired by some of the biggest games out there including final fantasy, breath of the wild, and more.
For crochet fans, this Celeste Animal Crossing Crochet Pattern from seller Kittens and Mittens lets you create your very own star gazing friend. My Amigurumi skills aren’t great but maybe I can convince my Mum to take a crack at this one!
In addition to Celeste, Diana has Amigurumi patterns for Gulliver, Isabelle, Raymond, and many more – including both Animal Crossing characters and other popular faces from various games.
Another product from seller Arjun Creations, these Animal Crossing Storage Boxes are fun and practical. These boxes are available in three sizes; 5cm, 9cm, and 12cm.
Their store is full of great movie & game related items, including some fab Animal Crossing goodies like cookie cutters and star fragments!
These wooden Animal Crossing Custom Amiibo figures from seller WdByMe not only look amazing but work as Amiibos in the game so you can invite your favourite villager to visit you & live at your island. I love these!
WdByMe also sell personalised football plaques.
This AC tea towel from seller Jesse Illustrates is so cute it earned her two entries on this list! It’s also a practical product, which makes it ok to buy, right? It can also be hung up as a wall hanging if you can’t bear to hide it away in your kitchen.
Jessica also sells the Animal Crossing washi tapes featured earlier in this post, as well as a variety of other accessories.
If you can’t get the hang of crochet yourself, you could always commission a Custom Animal Crossing Villager from seller The Reluctant Spoonie, with 10% of sale proceeds going to a disability charity – meaning you get to feel good and get something cute!
As well as doing Animal Crossing commissions, Katherine crochets sweet decorative stars and sunflowers.
So there you have it – over 35 Animal Crossing inspired gifts. Any of these would make great presents for anyone who has spent their lockdown earning bells to pay off Tom Nook. If you’re the Animal Crossing addict in your household, why not treat yourself to something to show your AC love?!
These are fabulous! I’m going to get my girls to take a look tomorrow (they are in bed now) and let them choose something. I’m betting they’ll go for stationary. I like the Celeste Crochet pattern…
Oh I know, I had to restrain myself *so much* when choosing all these items for the list.
