Designs to try out

The most intriguing item from the new Animal Crossing New Horizon update is the Photo Standee. These stands give a great aura to any building, and players can use them as an external window. With the customization, players can use them to camouflage it with the outside environment with the addition of vines, trees and colors that match the background. Players can also go a bit overboard with a lot of shades to give the standees a much needed pop and make them stand out.

Flags are a cool addition as well, which can be used to mark locations on a player’s island. The umbrellas and fans are also a great way to customize a character’s design and make them look cuter. Players can try out other player’s designs by using the Custom Design Portal. They can also use the Portal for inspiration to create their own design.
