Strings & Things does not require any mods to work.
There comes a time in every survival playthrough where you want to decorate your abode, but a search around for building inspo leaves you unsatisfied. Anything survival friendly just takes up too much block space.
This pack was born from this frustration I had while playing on an SMP, wanting an option that didn't require modded items to use. Previous packs achieved custom models with Optifine or CIT (which is defunct).
Thanks to 1.21.5 pack changes, custom models are now much easier to implement into vanilla gameplay.
The pack currently features 85+ custom items to choose from!
Pack Features:
- String lights (Fairy lights) add a touch of detail to your base, while still fitting into vanilla survival gameplay.
- Extra decorative items and accessories to discover! (use the pack README to find them all!)
- Strings are accessed by renaming glowstone dust in an anvil. Hats are accessed by renaming a carved pumpkin in an anvil. This means the pack doesn't replace or interrupt any normal gameplay.
- Regular and Glow item frames have been made mostly invisible, besides a small border indicator
Use the README in the pack to get the names required to activate the desired item
If you encounter any issues, please visit the Discord Server!

Strings are now more modular than before, with the ability to create strings that span a single block or wrap a corner (no more measuring in threes!).
# Strings:
_Please use the updated README to make sense of the options, the list is getting really long..!_
- Added mini lights that surround pillars and posts (SLM "WRP" for wrap)
- Added mini lights that string across only a single block, great for use around windows and corners! (SLM "I" for individual)
# Things:
- Wear the wrap pillar string as a hat (using a carved pumpkin)!
# Tweaks:
- Corrected issue with pack version in 4a in newer pack versions, (there is some kind of minecraft bug that makes the pack break when textures arent assigned to faces) version bump to 76 (1.21.11 and latest snapshots)
- Adjusted a couple string positions so they fit in with the new additions
- The ReadME is now a bit more clearly layed out for using each piece modularly
- Removed SLMULTI (I want to revisit them later)
