How to Craft a Shovel in Animal Crossing
One of the most important tools in Animal Crossing is the shovel. With it, you can dig up fossils, plant trees, and even discover hidden treasures. In this article, we’ll show you how to craft your very own shovel in Animal Crossing.
Materials Needed
Before you can craft a shovel, you’ll need a few things:
- 5 hardwood
- 1 flimsy shovel (you can obtain this by talking to Tom Nook – he’ll give you a DIY recipe for it)
You can obtain hardwood by hitting trees with an axe or shaking them. You can also buy a flimsy shovel recipe from Nook’s Cranny for 200 bells.

Once you have the necessary materials, follow these steps to craft your shovel:
- Make sure your flimsy shovel is in your inventory.
