What “Return as Collectibles” Means for Midnight Housing
In Midnight, “collectible décor” isn’t just “buy furniture from a vendor.” The best version of housing is when décor comes from the same places you already love playing: quests, reputations, dungeons, raids, achievements, seasonal events, professions, and even older expansions you haven’t visited in years. Blizzard has talked about housing rewards as a long-lasting journey and emphasized that décor should come from core gameplay styles, not only housing-specific activities. That philosophy is exactly why a “returning collectibles” list is exciting: it implies the world becomes relevant again.
When we say “return,” we mean any of these:
- A classic world prop becomes a placeable furnishing (instead of something you only see in a zone).
- A seasonal or toy-style object becomes a permanent décor unlock for your house.
- An iconic aesthetic (Kirin Tor, Gilneas, Suramar, Ardenweald, etc.) gets expanded into full sets so collectors can build complete themes.
- Older content becomes worth replaying because it feeds your home’s look, not just your transmog closet.

How We Picked These 50 Items
This list focuses on items that hit at least one of these “collector goals”:
- Instant theme identity: One item can define a room (a fountain, a chandelier, a shrine, a dramatic lamp).
- Set-building potential: The item has natural companions (matching shelves, tables, fences, banners).
- Repeat placement value: It’s something players place in multiples (lamps, signs, benches, fence segments, baskets).
- Lore + nostalgia: The object screams “WoW” the second you see it (Dalaran, Shattrath, Gilneas, Suramar, Pandaria temples).
- Social usefulness: Perfect for guild halls, RP venues, open houses, or screenshot spaces (campfires, cooking props, string lights, seating).
Most importantly: every pick below is meant to be collectible-friendly — something that feels rewarding to earn and satisfying to place.
Top 50 Housing Items We Hope Return as Collectibles
- Kirin Tor Sun Chandelier
- If Midnight housing has one “instant identity” item, this is it. A Kirin Tor chandelier makes any room feel like Dalaran: polished, magical, and prestigious. The collectible dream is a chandelier family — bright “library” lighting, softer “tavern in Dalaran” lighting, and a slightly cracked “post-war Dalaran” version for storytelling. Chandeliers are also perfect because they’re one of the few items that can anchor an entire room’s lighting plan without needing ten smaller lamps.
- Kirin Tor Glass Table
- Collectors love pieces that feel rare without being obnoxious. A glass table that reads “arcane craftsmanship” is perfect for mage towers, research labs, and upscale apartments. The best part is how flexible it is: one table in a study looks refined; four tables in a guild hall looks like a council chamber. We’d love variants with different sigils or slightly different shapes so builders can create matching sets without the room looking cloned.
- Dalaran Scholar’s Bookcase
- If you’ve ever tried to build a believable library in WoW, you know the pain: you need bookcases, and you need lots of them. A Dalaran-themed scholar bookcase is exactly the kind of repeat-placement collectible that makes housing feel like a real system rather than a single trophy room. This should be the “library backbone” item with small, medium, and tall versions — because collectors don’t want one bookcase, they want a wall.
- Dalaran Street Sign
- Street signs are underrated décor. They’re small, they add realism, and they let builders create a neighborhood inside their neighborhood — tavern lane, mage lane, market lane, “guild hall entrance,” “do not enter,” and more. A Dalaran street sign also fits both cozy and fancy themes. Collectible signs are especially great if they can be dyed or have symbol variants so you can point to different wings of your house for tours and events.
- Silver Dalaran Bench
- Benches are social décor. People stop, emote, pose, talk — and that means a good bench is basically a housing “engagement tool.” A Silver Dalaran Bench is perfect for gardens, hallways, city courtyards, and gallery rooms where you want visitors to pause and take in your trophies. As a collectible, it also begs for variants: gold-trim, slightly worn, and “Kirin Tor crest” versions.
- Dalaran Post
- Posts are pure utility for builders: they frame paths, support signage, mark entryways, and create the sense that a space has rules. A Dalaran post is especially useful for creating a magical courtyard or “city district” vibe inside your plot. It also pairs perfectly with lampposts. For collectors, the dream is a modular set: post + chain + lantern + sign bracket so you can build custom streets.
- Kirin Tor Crate
- Crates sound boring until you build a lived-in house. Then you realize crates are storytelling. A Kirin Tor crate instantly turns an empty corner into “someone just moved in,” “artifact delivery,” or “guild supplies.” Collectors also love crates because they stack and scale well, making them perfect for advanced building. This item is also a great candidate for achievement or profession-based unlocking since it’s a “common object” that still feels themed.
- Gilded Dalaran Banner
- Banners are identity. A gilded Dalaran banner belongs in mage towers, libraries, guild halls, and any room meant to feel important. Collectors don’t just want one banner — they want a banner set: tall, short, wall-hanging, and outdoor pole versions. If Midnight’s dye system applies here, banners become even better: you can match room palettes while keeping the crest readable.
- Kirin Tor Skyline Banner
- This is the kind of banner that makes a space feel like a destination. A skyline motif works beautifully behind a stage, above a staircase, or as a statement wall in a formal hall. For collectors, skyline banners are perfect because they’re decorative without being loud. A room can have four of them and still feel classy. We’d love skyline banners for other cities too, but Dalaran is the obvious first pick.
- Shattrath Lamppost
- Shattrath is iconic: it’s the first “hub city” many players remember as truly otherworldly. A Shattrath lamppost brings that vibe into any home, especially for draenei builds, Naaru-inspired sanctuaries, or Outland-themed gardens. Lampposts are also naturally repeat-placement items — you use them to line paths, frame courtyards, and guide visitors during night lighting. As collectibles, lampposts should have warm and cool glow variants.
- Shattrath Sconce
- Indoor lighting makes or breaks housing. A Shattrath sconce is a perfect wall-light option for players who want a clean, luminous aesthetic rather than smoky candles. It also pairs beautifully with Light-themed builds and “holy library” rooms. Collectors would love an entire family: single sconce, double sconce, and “grand hall” sconce with subtle motion or shimmer.
- Draenei Smith’s Anvil
- Every good house needs a workshop corner, and an anvil is the ultimate “this is a real home” prop. A draenei anvil is even better because it’s both functional-looking and lore-rich. It belongs in Outland-themed builds, paladin/Light spaces, or any character fantasy that says “crafting matters.” Collectible anvils should come in a few sizes so they can fit small apartments or huge guild forges.
- Draenei Holo-Projector Pedestal
- This is the kind of décor that instantly separates “normal house” from “WoW house.” A holo-projector pedestal screams technology, magic-science, and draenei style. It’s perfect for mage towers, war room briefings, and RP scenes where characters “plan the mission.” Collectors would go wild for a set of projector “outputs” — maps, star charts, Naaru silhouettes — but even the base pedestal alone is a top-tier collectible.
- Draenei Transmitter
- Transmitters, consoles, and gadgets are the unsung heroes of believable sci-fantasy builds. A draenei transmitter is ideal for “crashed ship” rooms, Outland refugee camps, or a clean, futuristic lab inside an otherwise medieval home. As a collectible, it’s also a great way to make engineering-style builds feel distinct from goblin/gnome chaos — draenei tech is elegant.
- Tempest Keep Cryo-Pod
- If you want one dramatic, conversation-starting collectible, this is it. A cryo-pod instantly creates story: who was inside, why is it here, what did you salvage? It’s perfect for a villain lab, a void sanctum, an Outland trophy room, or a “museum of cosmic artifacts.” Collectors love items like this because they look rare, they photograph well, and they can anchor a whole wing themed around one expansion’s memories.
- Gilnean Rocking Chair
- Gilneas décor has a cozy, gothic elegance that fits a huge range of builds: taverns, haunted manors, noble studies, and quiet bedrooms. A rocking chair is also a rare kind of item that feels personal — it’s not a trophy, it’s a home object. Collectors will place it in reading corners, fireplace lounges, and porch spaces. The collectible dream is a full Gilnean seating set: rocking chair, armchair, sofa, and bench.
- Gilnean Wooden Table
- Tables are always needed, and Gilnean woodwork is the perfect “cozy but refined” style. This table belongs in dining rooms, kitchens, tavern floors, and crafting corners. The reason it’s a top collectible is simple: it’s a base building block that will get used endlessly. If there are multiple table sizes and shapes, collectors can build consistent rooms without everything looking copy-pasted.
- Gilnean Wall Shelf
- Shelves are where collectors show off collectibles. A wall shelf lets you turn achievements, trophies, books, and small décor into a gallery. Gilnean shelves fit dark academia themes, apothecaries, and haunted manor interiors. For the best collector experience, shelves should have enough surface space to actually stage props, and they should come in single and double-length versions so builders can match room scale.
- Small Gilnean Windmill
- Exterior décor is where neighborhoods come alive, and windmills are instant “this plot is a place.” A small Gilnean windmill is perfect for farms, cottage gardens, trade outposts, or a cozy countryside vibe. Collectors love outdoor animated-looking décor because it adds life without needing constant particle effects. As a collectible, a windmill also creates a landmark — the kind visitors remember when they walk your neighborhood.
- Twilight Fire Canister
- Not every home should feel safe. Some should feel dangerous, mysterious, or powerful. A Twilight Fire Canister fits void-infused sanctums, warlock dens, and “forbidden magic” basements. It’s also a great lighting prop because it creates mood without relying on normal candles. Collectors who build darker themes want pieces like this that feel distinctly WoW — not generic fantasy.
- Smoke Lamp
- “Smoke” lighting reads as alchemy, industry, and mystery. A smoke lamp is perfect for goblin workshops, outlaw taverns, underground hideouts, and steampunk-style rooms. It’s also one of the best décor styles for builders who want a room to feel warm but not cheerful — think amber haze, shady corners, and “meet me in the back room” vibes. Collectors also love lamps because they’re easy to place in multiples to create consistent lighting.
- Standing Smoke Lamp
- A standing version of a smoke lamp changes everything: suddenly you can light corners without wall placement, frame doorways, and create lanes of glow in larger rooms. This is exactly the kind of item that becomes a staple in the housing economy because it’s useful in basically every theme that isn’t ultra-holy bright. For collectors, standing lamps are also perfect “repeat items” — you’ll buy/earn a set and use it forever.
- Smoke Sconce
- Wall sconces are essential for performance-friendly builds because they reduce the need for many separate light props. A smoke sconce is especially useful for corridors, stairways, and tavern seating areas where you want steady ambience. Collectors who host events will love it too: good sconces make a room readable even with lots of players inside.
- Intense Mogu Brazier
- Pandaria’s Mogu style is one of WoW’s strongest aesthetics: ancient, heavy, imperial, and a little ominous. An intense Mogu brazier belongs in temples, throne rooms, artifact vaults, and “I raided a ruin and brought the heat home” builds. Collectors love braziers because they’re dramatic and functional. A brazier set with a few sizes would be a dream for courtyard builds and garden gates.
- Hanging Paper Lanterns
- Lanterns are the easiest way to make a space feel welcoming. Hanging paper lanterns are perfect for Pandaren inns, garden paths, festival yards, and cozy taverns. They also look great in photos and tours because visitors immediately understand the “zone mood.” Collectors would love variants: clustered lantern strings, single lantern hooks, and different shapes that still match the same palette.
- Lorewalker’s Bookcase
- Lorewalker décor belongs in any collector’s home, because lore collectors are the heart of WoW nostalgia. A Lorewalker’s bookcase feels like a reward for curiosity — and it’s also incredibly useful as a library backbone piece. Collectors don’t want one; they want a full lore hall. This item is also a perfect tie-in for achievements and exploration goals that already exist in the game.
- Pandaren Stone Wall
- Structural pieces are the true “builder items.” A Pandaren stone wall lets you reshape space: create courtyards, inner gardens, dojo training halls, and temple corridors. Collectors who love advanced mode building will use walls to create whole new architectures inside their plot. The dream is a full Pandaren structural kit: walls, posts, arches, and roof accents that snap together cleanly.
- Pandaren Stone Post
- Posts are the connectors that make walls feel real. A Pandaren stone post can frame a gate, mark the start of a path, or support lantern hooks and signage. Collectors love posts because they scale well and solve lots of build problems with minimal décor count. If you want your home to feel like a real compound rather than a pile of furniture, posts are your friend.
- Jade Temple Dragon Fountain
- This is a top-tier centerpiece collectible. A dragon fountain instantly makes a yard feel like a destination — a temple courtyard, a noble garden, or a guild plaza. It’s also a perfect “photography anchor” for open houses: visitors gather around it, pose, and remember your home. Collectors love fountains because they create movement and luxury without requiring many separate props.
- Halfhill Cookpot
- Cozy builds live and die by kitchen props. A Halfhill cookpot is pure Pandaria comfort: markets, farms, kitchen corners, and tavern food scenes. It’s also perfect for social venues because it becomes a natural gathering point — people stand around it like a campfire, even if it’s technically a pot. As a collectible, it should have variants like “simmering,” “steaming,” and “empty” for different moods.
- Reconstructed Mogu Lightning Drill
- This is the kind of collectible that turns a room into a story: archaeology lab, villain workshop, mad scientist tower, or “I brought home a dangerous relic.” It’s also visually unique — perfect for collectors who want their home to feel rare and personal. Items like this are what make Midnight housing feel like a true endgame for creative players.
- Covered Square Suramar Table
- Suramar is a gold mine for elegant décor. A covered table fits noble dining rooms, arcane salons, wine rooms, and high-culture event venues. Collectors who build “premium” interiors want Suramar pieces because they read as rich and refined instantly. This is also a perfect bundle item for the economy: you’ll want multiple tables to create consistent lounge seating.
- Suramar Dresser
- Dressers and storage furniture make a home feel lived-in. A Suramar dresser is especially appealing because it fits both a noble bedroom and a high-end boutique vibe. Collectors love bedroom sets, and dressers are often missing from MMO housing systems. If you want Midnight homes to feel like actual homes, pieces like this matter.
- Suramar Storage Crate
- Even elegant cities need storage, and Suramar crates are a perfect way to add realism without “ugly junk.” They fit kitchens, pantries, shipping corners, and servant corridors in noble builds. Collectors also love crates for “backstage” areas in RP venues — the storage room behind the bar, the supply nook behind the stage.
- Suramar Fence
- Exterior fences define your yard, and Suramar fencing creates a classy, curated garden look. Collectors who love “estate” builds need fences that match their theme — and a Suramar fence is a strong identity piece. If Midnight supports fence segments well, this could become a must-have collectible for anyone building a city courtyard or noble villa.
- Shaded Suramar Window
- Windows are underrated because they’re not just décor — they’re architecture. A shaded Suramar window lets builders create believable mansions, arcane towers, and indoor courtyards. Collectors will use windows to fake multi-room depth, add rhythm to walls, and make corridors feel like real buildings rather than decorated boxes.
- Nightspire Fountain
- Another strong Suramar centerpiece, perfect for courtyards and indoor gardens. Fountains are collectible gold because they’re both decorative and functional (they guide visitor movement). A Nightspire fountain also supports arcane and noble themes simultaneously, making it useful across many builds. Collectors would love size variants so small plots can still use the same style.
- Ardenweald Lamppost
- Ardenweald décor is the dream for nature builds: glowing, whimsical, and calm. A lamppost is especially valuable because it turns a yard path into a magical trail instantly. Collectors who build druidic homes, fairy groves, or night gardens will place these everywhere. The best version of this collectible includes subtle glow that looks good even on lower graphics settings.
- Ardenweald Hanging Baskets
- Hanging baskets add softness and life to otherwise flat walls and porches. Ardenweald baskets are perfect for cottages, garden cafés, and druidic lodges. Collectors love items like this because they create detail without cluttering floors (which improves both navigation and performance). They also pair beautifully with fences and lampposts to create a full “garden kit.”
- Hollow Night Fae Shrine
- Shrines are storytelling props. A Night Fae shrine instantly says “this home has beliefs, rituals, and a connection to a realm.” Collectors who love roleplay-friendly builds will place shrines as sacred corners, ceremony rooms, or memorial spaces. Shrines are also perfect “hero items”: one shrine + matching lighting can define an entire wing.
- Tome of Maldraxxian Rituals
- Books as décor are collector heaven, especially when they’re lore-specific. A Maldraxxian rituals tome is ideal for necromancer labs, death knight halls, warlock dens, or “forbidden library” rooms. Collectors who like darker themes need items like this to make spaces feel authentic, not just edgy. Books also combine well with shelves and desks, turning a corner into a full scene with only a few props.
- Venthyr Anima Bottle
- Small items matter because they’re the finishing touches that make shelves and counters look real. A Venthyr anima bottle is a perfect accent for gothic mansions, wine cellars, and spooky sanctums. Collectors will place them in sets: on bars, on ritual tables, on display pedestals. If there are multiple bottle shapes, builders can create “collections” within their collection.
- Blackrock Lamppost
- Classic-era and Dark Iron aesthetics are timeless: heavy metal, heat, and fortress vibes. A Blackrock lamppost is perfect for industrial yards, warrior halls, blacksmith patios, and “fortress keep” builds. Collectors who love rugged styles often struggle to find lighting that matches their theme — this solves it. It also pairs well with forges and anvils.
- Ironforge Chandelier
- Ironforge is the ultimate “cozy fortress” vibe. An Ironforge chandelier belongs in dwarven halls, taverns, trophy rooms, and guild gathering spaces. Collectors love Ironforge items because they feel iconic without being flashy. If Midnight supports dye or metal tinting on lighting, chandeliers like this become even more valuable: bronze, iron, dark iron, and gold variants would be incredible.
- Brill Coffin
- Undead and gothic décor needs more than skulls — it needs real, grounded objects. A Brill coffin is iconic, immediately readable, and perfect for Halloween-style builds, Forsaken-themed manors, and spooky museums. Collectors also love it as a “shock item” in an otherwise normal house: the secret basement, the hidden wing, the “don’t ask” room.
- Kharanos Bookcase
- Classic dwarf vibes + library needs = instant win. A Kharanos bookcase is the kind of “base furniture” collectible that makes a home feel lived-in. Collectors will use it as the backbone of studies, guild libraries, and trophy display halls. The best part is how well it would combine with Ironforge lighting and dwarven banners to create a fully cohesive Classic-themed interior.
- Wooden Ironforge Table
- Tables are always in demand, and a classic dwarven table is both practical and flavorful. It fits taverns, war rooms, crafting spaces, and casual dining halls. Collectors often want “starter furniture” that doesn’t look cheap; a solid Ironforge table can be that backbone piece that supports dozens of themes.
- Zuldazar Fence
- Zandalar aesthetics are bold and gorgeous, and fences are essential for exterior builds. A Zuldazar fence lets collectors create temple courtyards, jungle villas, and ritual gardens. It’s also a great item for roleplay-friendly builds because it sets boundaries and makes a plot feel like a real compound. Fence segments are also an economy staple: builders buy a lot of them.
- Boralus Barrel
- Boralus is one of WoW’s most lived-in cities. Barrels fit everything: docks, taverns, supply rooms, pirate dens, merchant stalls, and coastal homes. Collectors love barrels because they stack, scale, and fill dead corners fast — and they’re perfect for staging “real life” scenes like shipping crates, fishing gear corners, and storerooms.
- Schmancy Goblin String Lights
- If you want one item that upgrades any social venue instantly, it’s string lights. Goblin string lights are perfect for party yards, markets, guild events, taverns, and “festival night” builds. Collectors love them because they’re high impact and easy to use: hang them above a patio, and suddenly the space feels alive. This is also one of the best repeat-placement collectibles in the entire list.
How to Prepare Now to Collect More Decor on Day One
If Midnight housing rewards feel best when they reflect your journey, the smartest move is to treat your existing gameplay like a décor prep plan.
- Finish achievements you’ve been “saving for later.” Housing reward philosophy strongly favors letting your past progress matter, so achievements are one of the safest bets for future décor unlocks.
- Revisit your favorite expansions. Many profession décor recipes and themed sets draw on older expansion materials and identities, which can make your past content knowledge valuable again.
- Don’t skip seasonal events. Holidays are the best source of cozy, social, and “home life” props — the exact vibe housing is built for.
- Build a “theme bank.” Decide on 1–2 themes you’ll focus on (Kirin Tor, Gilneas, Suramar, Ardenweald, Pandaria, etc.) and prioritize collecting items that match those visuals.
- Track your goals like a collector, not a grinder. Instead of farming everything, target what you’ll actually use. A smaller, consistent theme collection looks better than a random warehouse of unrelated stuff.
Smart Ways to Use These Items in Builds
If you want your house to look intentional, use a collector’s design mindset:
- Pick one identity per wing. Example: Dalaran library wing, Gilnean cozy wing, Ardenweald garden wing.
- Use one hero item per room. Fountain, shrine, chandelier, or a dramatic prop like a cryo-pod — then support it with smaller accents.
- Repeat for cohesion. Collectibles feel premium when they appear as sets: the same lamp family across multiple rooms, the same fence style across the yard.
- Create visitor moments. Bench + lighting + centerpiece = screenshot zone.
- Use “story corners.” Crates, bottles, books, and workshop props make a space feel lived-in without needing dozens of tiny clutter items.
Gold and Professions: Why These Items Matter to the Housing Economy
Housing collectibles don’t just make homes prettier — they create a market.
- Items like lamps, benches, shelves, fences, and tables are high-demand because players place them repeatedly.
- Theme identity pieces like Suramar furniture, Pandaria temple décor, and Ardenweald lighting create demand spikes when a theme trends.
- “Small accents” like bottles, crates, and books sell because collectors need finishing touches in bulk.
- The smartest goldmakers won’t sell random single items — they’ll sell kits: a tavern kit, a Dalaran study kit, a druid garden kit, a goblin party yard kit.
If you want Midnight housing to fund your whole expansion, focus on repeat-placement pieces and themed bundles.
BoostRoom: Turn Your Collectibles into a Legendary Home
Collecting is fun, but turning a pile of items into a home that feels expensive, cohesive, and visitor-ready is a skill. That’s where BoostRoom can help.
BoostRoom can support Midnight housing players with:
- Theme planning (Kirin Tor, Gilneas, Suramar, Ardenweald, Pandaria, and more)
- Layout guidance so your collectibles create a story, not clutter
- Lighting design that looks cinematic without turning your home into a lag machine
- “Collector showcase” rooms that highlight trophies and rare décor cleanly
- Event-ready venue setups for guild nights, RP taverns, and open houses
- Practical collection roadmaps so you earn what matters most for your chosen theme
A collectible is only as good as how you display it — and a well-built home makes every item feel rarer.
FAQ
Are these items confirmed to be in Midnight housing?
This is a wish list. Some items are appearing in early décor catalogs and profession crafting lists, and others are classic objects and toys we hope become permanent, placeable collectibles.
What type of décor is best to collect first?
Start with repeat-use staples: lighting, shelves, benches, tables, and fences. Those pieces make every future collectible look better.
How do I pick a housing theme without getting overwhelmed?
Choose the expansion or city aesthetic you love most, then build around it. One strong theme looks far better than ten mixed styles.
Do seasonal events really matter for housing collectors?
Yes. Holidays are the easiest source of cozy props (fires, food, lights, décor) and they’re perfect for social builds.
What’s the easiest way to make a house feel “lived in”?
Use small accents intentionally: crates, bottles, books, shelves, and a workshop corner. A few well-placed props beat a hundred tiny clutter items.
Will collectible décor affect goldmaking?
Absolutely. Anything players place in bulk (lights, rugs, fences, seating) tends to become a steady market, especially when themes trend.
How can I make my collectible room look premium, not messy?
Pick one hero item, give it space, and build a consistent frame around it: matching lighting, matching materials, and clean walkways.
