was wondering if anyone knows of any kinds of items you can give that don’t mess with a villager’s originality. i wanna give my favorite villagers gifts daily but i don’t wanna make their houses look like a dump of random items.
 
Anything you give them can end up in their homes. I gifted punchy a few outfits before I realized he was just filling his house with them. I try to only gift my villagers items I think will look nice in their houses now or small items that can be placed on top of their furniture they have now.
 
eh, your safest bet is to gift them non native fruits! Tho its not certain they will put your item up! Giftem Zucker an imperial bed bc he's worth it and he hasn't put it yet. still lives in his dump.
 
I just gift them wrapped non-native fruit. Don't know if it raises friendship as well as giving them furniture or clothes but I don't want to ruin their houses lol
 
i gave mine wreaths as signs of friendship! and then afterwards, i only give them clothing that they'll look good in, which they either wear out or hang on the walls, which doesn't bother me
 
As others have said, wrapped non-native fruit is the safest to give them if you don't want to mess with the house or clothes they have. Plus, so far every time I've given them fruit, I've received something in return from every single villager.

I tried flowers and they put those in their homes.

call me picky but every day I go to harv's island to make sure I model Olivia with a cute new outfit to be sure the gift will look good. Need my girl fashionable.
 
I believe (haven't test it) that talking to Isabelle can reset their houses, catchphrase/nicknames, and outfits. Talk to her about a villager.

Talking to Isabelle can reset custom outfits and catchphrases. That's so if you receive a villager from someone and it has an inappropriate catchphrase or outfit you can reset it. People have reported that talking to Isabelle to reset normal store-bought clothes, will just have the villager change out at that moment, but the clothes are still in their rotation to wear.

Thanks! that good to know, so I guess I'll be careful. A farfetched solution might be kicking them out and if you have amiibos for them, invite them again.
