The whole shop is gorgeous -- great colors -- but the wall
hangimg is especially cute. This one has a book in the middle, but the book
is the topmost layer and you can replace it with the veggie of your choice
for a "kitchenier" look. First, as always, you need to gather some matrials.
NOTES:
--You also need fishcakes and a small table, but these will not appear in the finished hanging. They will just make building it easier.
--Do not buy a cabbage from the NPC farmer. You have to dig it up yourself at the Skara Brae farms or it will not stack correctly.
--The fish trophy APPEARS to be 2 tiles wide, but it is actually only one tile wide. If you build into the square occupied by the red table, all your deco will end up BEHIND the fish. :) Build everything into the square occupied by the BLUE table. This is also the square you target to place the trophy.

--The Pumkins are the large stolen pumpkins. There are two
types. One stacks far BACK in the square.The other stacks far to the side.
You can tell which kind is which by placing them on a small wooden table.
Only the ones that stack far to the side will work.
--You might want to make your house private for an hour or two while you make this to avoid vandals eating your fishcakes and wrecking the design.
1) Place your fish trophy where you want yout wall hanging to be.
2) Place a small wooden table in the same tile you targeted to place the fish trophy. (Where the blue table is in the illustrations.)
3) Stack 7 fishcakes on top of the table. Do not lock down the fish or the table.
4) Now we need to cover the fish. This wall hanging relies on The Spell Book Trick. If you don't know this trick, you might want to go read about it now. The first thing you need to do is organize your materials into pairs. Pair one is the shell with the red ball and the shell with the striped stick. Let's call them Red Ball and Stripey. Then pair two is the cabbage and the plain shell. Pair three is the nightshade and the pumpkins. The book (or whatever fruit or vegetable you decide to use) is alone. POOR BOOK!

5) Place Stripey on top of the pile of fish.
6) Place Red Ball on top of the pile of fish.
7) Pick up Stripey and try to load it into your spell book, as if it were a spell. Red Ball will drop into Stripey's place. Stripey will "bounce" off your spellbook and land in the same "layer" that Red Ball now occupies. Lock both shells down.

8) We are going to do the exact same thing with the next
pair. So, stack the plain shell and then the cabbage on top of the fish. Grab
the plain shell and try to load it into your spell book. The cabbage will
drop and the plain shell will snap back into place. Lock them both.
9) We are now going to repeat this with the third pair. Load first the pumpkins and then the nightshade onto the top of the fish. Grab the pumpkins and aatempt to load them into your spellbook. The nightshade will drop and the pumpkins will snap back into place. Lock them both down.

10) As you can see, this combination of items absolutely
covers every bit of the fish! Now you have one space left on top to
put whatever you like--it's a free space to play with because the other objects
have done all the fish covering work! Go by the farms and by the NPC farmer
and get nice plump fruits or veggies and try them out in this slot until you
find one you like. The squash and guords both were kinda interesting. Carrots
were definately a LOOK, hehe. Turnips stacked too low for my tastes...Heck
try the kind of magic fish you can pull out of the ocean! GO NUTS! This little
corner in my house is part of a library, so I am going to follow Adorable's
example and use a book in this slot. Now take your chosen object (in my case
a mining book purchased from the gargoyles) and pop it up on top. Lock it.
11) Go bank sit, or hit dungeon Doom and die a few hundred
times, or work your tailoring skill. In about an hour, the fish and the little
table will poof, and you can make your house public again and show off your
brand new wall hanging!
