How do you get rid of the accent wall in ACNH Reddit?

I know this is old, but did anyone figure it out? I have tried going into decorating mode, switching to wall view, opening storage, finding the accent wallpaper I want to remove, and pressing X… nothing happens. It also shows no option for removing. What am I doing wrong? HELP!! 😭

This happened to me! To fix it, put another wallpaper over the whole room. It will reset it, afterward put the wallpaper you originally wanted. You don't have to have multiple of the same wallpaper to fix it, you just need a extra wallpaper of any kind!

How to add and remove an accent wall is a brand-new feature in ACNH. This can give your home even more individuality. Luckily, it is an easy task to perform. All you need to do is get hold of a license, though this does cost. Read on as we discuss how to remove an accent wall in Animal Crossing New Horizons.

How to Remove Accent Wall ACNH

The recent update to Animal Crossing New Horizons has introduced even more options for customizing your island. Much of this focuses on customizing your house, with everything from new fences to wallpapers. One very interesting feature is the ability to create an accent wall.

Anyone who is not up on interior decorating may not know what one of these is. The accent wall is a wall in a room that has an interesting or bright pattern or wallpaper, while the rest stay the same. You can now do this in Animal Crossing, but first of all, you need a Pro Decorating License.

This license will also allow you the ability to hang light fittings from the ceiling as well. To buy the license, head to the Resident Services Building. You will find the license at the Nook Stop. It costs 2500 Nook Miles.

Get the wallpaper you want to use as your accent wall. When you are in the room you want to decorate, press down on the D-Pad. You will enter decorating mode. From here, hit the plus button and you will be able to select a wall. Click on the wallpaper in your pocket using X, then find the accent wall option on the menu. This will add the paper to the chosen wall.

Removing it is as simple. When you go back into decorating mode, your wallpaper should have a blue tick on it. All you have to do is press X on the wallpaper icon. This will remove wallpaper from the accent wall.

A short on how to get rid of accent walls in Animal Crossing: New Horizons

I, like many other Animal Crossing: New Horizons players, was excited to hear that accent walls were an option with the 2.0 update because it meant that I could customize my home even further. The placement of the accent walls is simple; apply just as you would any other wallpaper. The process to remove them is a bit of a hassle, but definitely manageable when broken down step-by-step. 

How To Get Rid Of Accent Walls In ACNH:

  • You do need to be inside of your house to do this. So, go in. 
  • Once inside, access your inventory and choose the tab entitled “wallpaper.”
  • The wallpaper that you have chosen will be visible with a green checkmark in the right corner. Hover over it, and press the “A” button, which will remove the accent wall. Choose whichever wallpaper you want next.
