Bells are the main currency in the Animal Crossing series, used for purchasing ACNH Items (such as furniture, clothes and more decorations), paying off the player’s mortgage, funding upgrades to your island, trading with villagers and other services. They are easily obtained by selling items to the store. ACNH bells may also be received from seashell, money tree, fruit and more

In this guide, we share with you best 5 ways you can make bells in Animal Crossing New Horizons in 2021.1
Seashell.One of the quickest and easiest ways to get instant bells during the beginning parts of your Animal Crossing journey is to sell seashells

Seashells are worth a significant amount of ACNH bells and they spawn every day typically every hour.2
Money tree .In Animal Crossing, you can plant money trees and it's super easy to do

So every day on your island there will be a glooming spot in the ground and when you dig it up you will get 1000 bells. But don't run off just yet instead you can plant the 1000 bells into the ground and it will grow and blossom into a beautiful money tree worth 3000 bells

And you can get even more money if you go into your inventory and tap the number indicating how many bells you want to pull out and plant a larger sum of money like 10000 bells. For example, if you plant 10000 bells into the ground, your tree will grow and blossom into a money tree worth 30000 bells

3.DIY Crafting
Crafting is another way to make bells in Animal Crossing and you can make up the 2 even 3 times more bells by selling crafted items instead of selling the resources. So for example we'd sell for 10 bells each and you need 15 weeds to make a leaf umbrella, so if you just sold 15 of your weeds to the Nooks Cranny you would only make 150 bells

But if you craft them into a leaf umbrella you'll make 300 bells which is twice the amount of bells.4
Hot DIY Item.Your Nooks Cranny will also buy a hot DIY item every day that is completely random

They will offer you double the usual price for that item. Today the hot item was a log garden lounge and if you craft up a bunch of log garden lounges with some spare wood, you can make an easy 30k just by doing that

This method works best if the material is really easy to get or if you just have the material just laying around, you can make a lot of bells pretty quickly just by doing this.
