Essential Tips for Upgrading Your Home in Mirthwood

Starting your journey in Mirthwood, you might find your initial farmhouse lacking in charm and comfort. The structure shows clear signs of neglect, featuring crumbling walls, a damaged roof, and a worn-out floor. Fortunately, you won’t be stuck in such disrepair for long. This guide will walk you through the essential steps to upgrade your farmhouse into a space that feels a little more like home—without expecting an opulent overhaul.

Upgrading Your Farmhouse

To begin the upgrade process, look for a modest wooden sign situated to the right of your farmhouse door, just adjacent to your letterbox. Interacting with this sign will present you with a crafting menu specifically designed for home improvements.

Gathering 50x Wood and 50x Stone can pose a challenge, particularly as these materials are needed for various other recipes on your farm. It’s worth noting that prioritizing essential upgrades, such as better tools or a Furnace for metalworking, might yield quicker benefits for your farming efforts.

Customizing Your Farmhouse Appearance

Once you’ve successfully upgraded both the interior and exterior of your farmhouse, you can further personalize it according to your aesthetic preferences. Interaction with the Home Upgrade plaque, located on the left wall as you enter your home, enables you to modify floor and wall textures.
