How to customize items with Cyrus

You must have an item in your inventory in order for Cyrus to customize it. That being the case, make sure you travel to Harvey's Island with all of the items you want to have customized.

1. Talk to Cryus and select "I sure am!"

2. Select the item from your inventory that you want him to customize.
   • If it can be altered, a stylized R will appear in the lower left corner of the icon. (The R is for Re-Tail, a store that existed in previous Animal Crossing games).

Cyrus will take your item, customize it, and hand it right back. Now you can move on to your next customization job if you have one.

That's the way I like it

Unfortunately, not everything can be customized, but more items, furniture, and food can be customized than ever before. You'll just have to try it and see if the item you want to change has any other options available.
