Golden Shovel

Gulliver sent me a letter thanking me for all the help I’ve given him. Instead of a hat or furniture item, he sent me a DIY recipe for the golden shovel! Yes! I’ve been waiting for this!

Gulliver's golden shovel DIY letter.

It requires a shovel and one gold nugget. So I grabbed some gold out of storage and made my first golden shovel.

Golden shovel DIY recipe: 1 gold nugget, 1 shovel.

I earned 1,000 Nook Miles for making it. I’ve now made three of the six golden tools in the game…and this is the first new one I’ve made in 11 months!

Golden Milestone. Golden watering can: 6/26/20. Golden slingshot: 6/17/20. Golden shovel: 5/13/21.

It’s kind of funny that it takes so long to get it, when it was the quickest and easiest golden tool to earn in the older games. 😛

C.J. was in town, and he had a freestyle challenge for me; I just had to catch five fish in a row without letting any get away. I quickly completed the challenge and sold the five fish for 3,500 bells. But later, I got 11 fish out of storage and sold them for 97,500 bells.

C.J.: Oh, you got a whole school for me? All together that'll be... 97,500 bells. Deal?

Bones was talking about how good it smells inside Nook’s Cranny. Sorry dawg, but I’m not about to go sticking my nose in Nook’s Cranny. 😛

Bones: Seriously. You GOTTA go check out that smell.

Eloise was wearing sunglasses tonight, and I thought they looked very odd. Not just because it was dark out, but because her eyes are on the side of her head…so the glasses don’t line up with her eyes at all!

Eloise: I must be dreaming. This can't be a cushion!

See you all next time. Never Stop Crossing!

  1. Yay! Congrats on the shovel! Do u have any advice to get a 3 star island I restarted my island and I need to know. I keep getting 2 stars all the time apparently.

    1. Thank you! Just continue decorating and developing your island, adding outdoor furniture, fences, bridges, inclines, etc. Good luck!

  2. Congrats on the recipe! Now you can build a robot hero if you been saving rusted parts and you have enough gold nuggets! Oh and a rocket. I’m not even close to building this thing, there are like 5,000 wand recipes Celeste can give you and only one rocket recipe

    1. Thanks! I’ve actually already built a robot hero, since we also get rusted parts after Gullivarrr visits. But yeah, Celeste definitely has way too many wand recipes! 😂😂

  3. I only have two of the golden tool recipes: The golden slingshot and the golden fishing rod (I told you about me obtaining the golden fishing rod in the comments back in December).
