Customize Your Own Desktop Icons

When doing some research about desktops, I came across something cool that I had NO idea you could do and wanted to share with all of you: change the icons of your desktop folders and apps; no more boring and un-aesthetic blue folders for us! I found a couple of help pages that outline how to carry out this process on both a Mac and a PC and have included them here in case you are interested in doing so for your desktop project or just for you 🙂 I also included some photos of how other individuals have utilized this function to personalize their own computers to show the variation of styles that can be represented in doing so.
