Discover all the Decorations you can craft in Fallout 4! Learn the materials needed for Flags, Mounted Creatures, Paintings, Signs, and more to customize your settlements.
Alright, let's talk about making your settlements feel like home in Fallout 4. Decorations are key to that, and thankfully, there's a decent variety to choose from. You'll be using your workshop to place these, and most of them are wall-mounted items. Think of it as decorating your own little slice of the wasteland.
First up, we have the Flags. These are pretty cool for showing off your allegiance or just adding some color. You've got flags for the Brotherhood of Steel, the Institute, the Railroad, and the Minutemen. To craft these, you'll need 5 Cloth. Keep in mind, for the faction-specific flags, you generally need to have progressed a bit in their questlines and even be a member yourself. The standard U.S. Flag is the easiest, requiring just 5 Cloth and no special prerequisites.

Next, let's look at the Mounted Creatures. If you're going for that rugged, post-apocalyptic hunter vibe, these are perfect. You can mount the heads of a Brahmin, Mirelurk, Mole Rat, or even a Radstag. Crafting these usually requires Wood, Cloth, and specific creature components like skulls or meat. For example, the Mounted Brahmin Heads need Wood (1), Cloth (2), and Brahmin Skull (2).

Now, for the art lovers out there, you've got Paintings. These are pretty straightforward – just 5 Wood for each one. You can place a bunch of these to really liven up the walls of your settlements. There are quite a few of them, so you can mix and match or just fill a whole wall if you've got the resources!

Finally, there are a couple of Miscellaneous decorations. You can craft a Basketball Hoop, which needs 4 Steel. There's also the Eat-O-Tronic, a wall-mounted vending machine, which requires 4 Steel and 2 Glass. These are a bit more unique and can add a fun touch to your settlements.
