One of the easiest ways to customize your mechanical keyboard is to replace your keycaps. Of course, you will need a keycaps extractor and a new set of custom keycaps to your liking, which will replace your old keys. And it is not necessary to replace all the keys of your keyboard, one or two keycaps will be enough to give it some style, provided you choose them well.

Artisan Keycaps are keys often sold individually. Handmade by passionate craftsmen in workshops. And made in small series, this makes them rare and complicated to find on the market.
