Earn Disney Dreamlight Valley Star Coins by removing Night Thorns
Find out how to upgrade your house in Disney Dreamlight Valley once you've earned enough Star Coins to pay for the improvements.
One of the fastest ways to earn Disney Dreamlight Valley Star Coins is to remove as many of the Night Thorns as possible. They're everywhere and grow in new places each day but are very easy to get rid of as you only need to interact with them. Sometimes they drop seeds when you remove them, while occasionally you'll receive a Dream Shard that can be used to get more Dreamlight in Disney Dreamlight Valley, but more often than not, a Star Coin will come flying out to increase your balance when collected. You won't get loads of Star Coins for each thorn you destroy, but the coins will start adding up and this is a really easy and reliable way to get coins each day.
Earn Disney Dreamlight Valley Star Coins by selling items to Goofy
After working with Scrooge McDuck to patch up Goofy's Stall in Peaceful Meadow, you have the option to earn Star Coins in Disney Dreamlight Valley by selling your surplus items there. You can exchange pretty much anything in your inventory there for cold hard cash, though meals from food recipes in Disney Dreamlight Valley are the most lucrative as they become more valuable than the sum of their parts – for example, you can sell a Catfish for 550 coins and a Carrot for 44, but combine them at a stove to cook a Grilled Fish Entree and that can be sold for 772, earning you almost 200 extra Star Coins for very little additional effort. You can even make crudites in Disney Dreamlight Valley then sell them on for a small profit!
Earn Disney Dreamlight Valley Star Coins by opening chests
Another way to earn Disney Dreamlight Valley Star Coins is by opening chests, which you should be doing whenever you spot them anyway as they're a valuable source of new items. You'll find chests inside buildings, out in the wild, and even buried underground or within rocks sometimes, and although the color of the chest generally denotes what you'll receive from them, every chest has a random chance to drop some money at the same time. Yellow chests are the most lucrative, as they always provide a generous amount of Star Coins.
Earn Disney Dreamlight Valley Star Coins by leveling up characters
The last way to earn Star Coins in Disney Dreamlight Valley is by leveling up your friendships with the various characters you meet during your adventures, as at certain points you'll receive bonus coins as your reward – this is currently 500 Star Coins at Level 4 and 1,000 when you reach Level 7.

Each Villager will have three favorite gifts assigned, which changes every 24 hours of real time, and if you can give them one or more of those you'll be leveling up rapidly.
