Feng Shui

Feng Shui is a popular element in Animal Crossing and Animal Crossing: Wild World (it's also featured in the real world, though the AC versions are dimmed down quite a bit). Mainly, what you do is place certain colored items in a certain corner of your house (see the chart to the right), giving you good luck. Very few items, called "special Feng Shui", will give you luck no matter where you place them in your house.

Many items don't have Feng Shui value, though ones that do generally are either yellow, red, orange, or green.

Special Feng Shui
As mentioned above, some items are Special Feng Shui, which means they'll give you luck no matter where you put them in your house. Obviously, these items are rare, and ones you certainly don't want to blunderingly give away.
