Decorating DIYs #14
Hello! I’m King, and I’m back with another decoration to share!
I used Liza’s Garden to achieve a small indoor garden den. Bright, pink trees matched with the grays, greens, and oranges of the rest of the decoration really stands out among those neutral colors.
That’ll be it fun from me for now! See you next time.
Decorating DIYs #13
Hello! I’m King, and using the past Wild Weekend’s shop designs, I created a very secluded beach shop!
I have used a blue, orange, white, and yellow scheme to make this den come life. Multiple different decorations, like the kite, torch, and teacups, all provide a relaxing atmosphere. If you want to create a shop den yourself, make sure to use shops that match the den’s theme. Also, adding decor to the den draws customers in to browse your stock!
Anyways, that’s it for now. Play wild!

Decorating DIYs #12
Hello! My name is KingJamaa, and today I’m back with another Decorating DIYs post. Let’s get started, shall we?
I decided to create a home design this week. By using shoji screens, a phantom tree, seesaws, and a chimney along with an antique rug and wood step ladders, I was able to construct my base. Then, I used several other items to decorate the outside of the house to complete the decoration.
Anyways, that’s it for now. Have an awesome day, and be sure to play wild!

Hello! I’m King, and today I’ll be bringing you the eleventh edition of Decorating DIYs. How about we get started?
I created a pet skate park by using the brand new skateboarding ramp items in Jam Mart. By incorporating pets and plants, I added some extra life to the decoration. Additionally, I think that the addition of the sewer cap and skateboard add for a bit of decor to the den.
Anyways, that’s it for now. Farewell, and play wild!
3 Healthy Trading Strategies
3 strategies to keep in mind while trading in Animal Jam!
Trading is an exceptional way to spend time in Animal Jam, you can collect new wacky/popular items, unpopular items to stand out, explore the map for your journey to find the perfect item, socialize with other members of the game, and etc. With that said, although trading can be an excellent way to spend time in AJ. It can also cause quite a bit of stress and/or frustration. The last thing the community needs is negativity caused by trading in the game. Therefore, here are 3 healthy strategies that you can use while trading in Animal Jam!
1. Scheduling break times.
After trading for a long time, if not completely successful it can become very frustrating and potentially toxic. If this is something you find to be quite common when trading in Animal Jam, it is OK to take breaks. In fact, I’d recommend scheduling breaks ranging from at least 5 minutes or more to re-gather your thoughts. There are plenty of other things to do in Animal Jam, which you can read more about in other articles on the AJA, such as
https://www.animaljamarchives.com/home//top-5-things-to-do-in-jamaas-oceans
or
https://www.animaljamarchives.com/home//5-things-in-aj-to-do-to-keep-the-new-year-interesting
2. Do NOT engage with arguments about worths.
There will be times where even if a trade you’ve offered a person is fair, they may decline. Although it might be frustrating, engaging into an argument with them about what is fair and what isn’t is not worth anyone's time. Not only does it take the time that could be used to move onto trading with someone else, but it only fuels the anger and negativity around trading and the community. If you are in a place where after fairly trading or even overtrading with someone, you still get declined. It would be healthier to simply move onto someone else or take a break. Millions of people play Animal Jam, and plenty of trading goes on all day every day.
3. Have fun! It is a game after all.
It is easy to become overly attached to trading, but it is also easy to get blind-sided by the eagerness and competition of it. There are ways to find fun and positivity in trading by being kind and understanding to others, taking time to trade for silly items as a way to change the routine, traveling to different parts of Jamaa and meeting new people, and etc. It’s okay to reach and work hard for your dream items in AJ, but just remember it’s a game, after all, it’s all about having fun!
Decorating DIYs #10
Hello! I’m King, and today I have another edition of Decorating DIYs. Today, I have a cute little decoration to share!
I have a nature-y bedroom design situated around my main character, Explorer, whom is a deer. His primary color schemes aren’t green and white, with a hint of red, so implemented those into my den. If you want to create a den resembling your character, make sure you pay attention to their colors, species, and things they might like to have in a den. Be sure to have a close eye to detail, as well. For example, I created a detailed bedframe using a wooden couch and lucky bench, along with pixelated fences. I also used a Sigurd statue and deer topiary to resemble his species.
Anyways, that’s it for now! I’ll see you next time.

Hey Jammers! It's Cuteypie here, taking over Decorating DIYs for the week for King! Today we have a den inspired by the American holiday approaching on Monday, Memorial Day!
This den is a cookout inspired by this American holiday that honors the men and women that died in service. In my family, we always go camping and have a nice, big cookout on the fire with family and friends. I tried using red, white, and blue (America's colors) as my scheme, but I left a few other items their original colors. I thought the new Beach Cooking Pot item would match the cookout theme perfectly! Jam On
Decorating DIYs #8
Greetings, Jammers! I’m King, and welcome to Decorating DIYs. Today, we have an inspiration den I created using Liza’s Garden!
The den revolves around a recreational room, and is based on the new ping-pong table in Jam Mart. I used green and red as my main colors, with brown, yellow, and white as accents. Adding pets also keeps the decorations lively!
Anyways, I’ll see you all next time. Happy jamming!
