Awesome Icons lets you customize your home screen icons with icon packs and your own pictures. It works with most launchers and does not require root.

Download icon packs from the Play store and mix icons freely from any of them. You can also use your own pictures from the gallery or the camera to create your own icons. With Awesome Icons, you choose the style of each home screen icon individually.

Creating customized icons is easy: find the application and the icon pack you want, and create your new home screen icon with a single tap. You can also customize the label of the application or remove it completely.

You can use the app to personalize your icons with any launcher, including the stock Android launcher and the Google Now launcher.
