With the The Elder Scrolls V: Hearthfire add-on, a number of new housebuilding items have been added to Skyrim. These items will allow the construction of a homestead, whether it be for foundation or aesthetic purposes.
Acquisition
Some of these materials can be purchased or encountered in the wild, while others must be forged or mined.
Glass can also be encountered as random loot, while goat horns can also be obtained from about one of every five goats. If the Dragonborn is considered a friend of a Mill owner, they will allow the Dragonborn to cut logs at their mill: however, this option is extremely buggy and it is far less time consuming to simply purchase logs directly.
Iron Ingots are needed to craft all of them, one iron ingot can yield two hinges or one iron fittings or ten nails. An iron ingot and an Corundum Ingot yields one lock.
