How to Level Up Faster

Level up faster in My Leisure Time with cheap furniture crafting and repainting. Compare hammer costs, earn XP and reuse your finished items as NPC gifts.

The fastest crafting and repainting method

Unlock Artisan painting and crafting, then make items that are inexpensive both to craft and repaint. You earn XP when you craft an item and more XP each time you repaint it from one colour to another. The Babyblue Floral Frame (Back) is the best-known option: it costs 3 hammers to craft and 7 hammers per repaint.

Best items if you only want to craft

The Samoyed Crystal Ball costs 8 hammers and Branch Decor costs 10 hammers. Both are efficient choices when you want crafting XP without repeatedly changing colours.

What to do with the finished items

Babyblue Floral Frame (Back) sells for 3 gold, the same number as its crafting cost in hammers, so this is an XP strategy rather than a gold-making strategy. Repainted variants are also useful as distinct gifts for NPCs.

Cheap repaintable items by hammer cost

Craft a batch, then cycle through available colours for repeat painting XP.
