Credit: Bhavneeth Games Published Aug 5, 2026, 1:57 AM EDT Simon is a Computer Science BSc graduate who has been writing about technology since 2014, and using Windows machines since 3.1. After working for an indie game studio and acting as the family's go-to technician for all computer issues, he found his passion for writing and decided to use his skill set to write about all things tech. Since beginning his writing career, he has written for many different publications such as WorldStart, Listverse, and MakeTechEasier. However, after finding his home at MakeUseOf in February 2019, he would eventually move on to its sister site, XDA, to bring the latest and greatest in Windows, Linux, and DIY electronics.

Grab the pack from the Wonderbrushed GitHub and install it to refresh your KDE desktop. One of the biggest things I love about Linux is that it's very customizable. There's no need to install third-party apps and use workarounds to get the look and feel you want; most of the time, the OS itself comes with all the support you'd need to do what you want. Such is the case with this delightful icon pack you can download and install onto KDE right now. Wonderbrushed is like if someone re-drew your desktop icons with chalk More icons have just been added, too Over on the KDE subreddit, GitHub user Bhavneeth-Games announced the newest release of their app, Wonderbrushed 0.45 Beta 1. Wonderbrushed gives your KDE icons a fresh lick of paint, in a style that the developer calls "chalky icons that look almost edible." Personally, they give me huge clay vibes, such as the graphics in Kirby and the Rainbow Curse. The new update brings in 24 new icons to the pack, including "Discord and Steam, Directory Icons, and new Mime-types." You can see them in the image above; there's a nice mix of system-based icons and unique app icons in this pack, and they all look utterly delightful. If you want to install these icons on your own KDE environment (I know I will very shortly), head over to the Wonderbrushed GitHub repository for the download link and instructions.
