How to Unlock Customization

To customize items in Animal Crossing New Horizons you'll need to unlock the option to do so. After building the museum, and after inviting three new neighbours (more on that here), Tom Nook will offer a workshop on customization. Head to Resident Services to take it, you will need to craft a wardrobe first, Tom Nook will give you the recipe. Once you have completed this workshop you're free to customize items.

How to Customize Items

To customize items head to a DIY bench with some Customization Kits in your inventory. You'll be given the option to customize something. Select the item you want to customize and then cycle through the options. Depending on what you choose, you'll pay between 1 and 4 Kits (for a look at using Custom Designs, head here ).

How to Get Customization Kits

You'll get 50 Customization Kits for completing Tom Nook's customization workshop. If you want to buy more you will need to head to the Nook's Cranny Shop and look at the selection (you can also talk to Timmy if you haven't unlocked that yet). Customization Kits cost 600 each.
