Animal Crossing: New Leaf was the first game in the franchise to offer furniture customization. This awesome feature lives on in New Horizons, where clothing customization is also possible. Whilst not available immediately, players will unlock the ability to customize furniture as they progress through the game.
If you wish to jazz up your furniture, but are unsure how, don’t fret, as here’s some guidance on how to customize furniture in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
How To Unlock Furniture Customization
There are a few requirements that players must fulfil before being able to customize furniture. You must complete the museum and invite three new residents to your island, before Tom Nook will invite you to participate in a customization workshop.
The workshop will take place at Residents Services, where you must craft a wardrobe. Tom Nook will give you the recipe required to craft it. The recipe for it requires 12 pieces of wood. Once you have crafted it, you will then be able to customize furniture.
What Is Required In Order To Customize Furniture
In order to customize furniture, you will need a few customization kits, a piece of furniture that you can customize, and access to a workbench.
You will receive 50 Customization Kits from Tom Nook after completing his customization workshop. If you need any more customization kits, you can buy them from either Nook’s Cranny, or if you have not yet unlocked the store, you can buy them from Timmy in the Residents Services tent instead. They cost 600 bells each to purchase.
How To Customize Furniture
Once you have a piece of furniture that you want to customize, and some customization kits in your inevntory, head to a workbench and interact with it. When asked ‘Should I craft comething?’ select the ‘Customize something option’. You can then select the furniture that you wish to customize, and will be taken to the customization screen. Here, you will be able to change the colour of items.
With some types of furniture, such as beds and tables, you will also be able to change the fabric of the item. There are different coloured fabrics for you to choose from. However, you can also customize fabric using your own designs or designs obtained using QR codes. You can learn more about QR codes in Animal Crossing: New Horizons here.
Fun Fact: You can also customize tools!
