So I have a couple ideas for this to work:
1. Have an advanced option at the start of a new game to allow you to freeze time in your house all the time.
or
2. Have a 'decorate' option when you enter your home where it can freeze time, allowing you to decorate the inside.
Maybe have something where freezing time in your home does not allow you to loot your casks or indoor crops.
And of course, for multiplayer for this to work, maybe have the freeze time option only work if all parties are in their homes.
In decorate mode while in multiplayer, no one can leave their homes unless accepted by the host.
I think this can ensure a balance to not exploiting the feature but also gives people time to decorate without worrying about sacrificing time to figure out where you need to put your couch lol
*Edit*
3. One more idea, but maybe have the decorate feature unlock when you purchase either the catalog from Pierre's or Robin's, or both. That could work too I think.
