Christmas Expansion
by GDwok
Christmas Expansion brings holiday-themed decorations, tools and items to NeoForge, with snowy bricks, string lights, a letter-to-Santa mailbox and Jingle Bells.
What it does
Players get a set of Christmas blocks and decorations, including snowy bricks and string lights, along with festive items such as candy canes. A right-click with the letter to Santa is one of the ways the mod's content is used, and the mailbox and Jingle Bells add to the holiday set. The mod runs on the client alone, so servers do not need to install it. It is published for NeoForge across 4 release versions, 1.21.8 – 1.21.11, and is released under the MIT License, but it is not open source.
