I'm planning out a housewarming list for my new place in Seattle and I'm stuck between making a standard Amazon Wish List or one of those fancy Idea Lists. I'm leaning toward the Idea List because it looks cleaner but I really need to add my own photos of my kitchen layout so people don't buy stuff that wont fit the space. I also looked at using Elfster instead but most of my family are Prime members so keeping it on Amazon is just easier for everyone. I've been clicking around for like an hour and cant figure it out though. How do you actually add custom images or specific descriptions to the items on an Amazon list?

Be careful because Amazon wont let you upload custom photos to items. Id suggest using Share Product instead since their native list tools are honestly super limited for that.

I would be careful relying on Amazon for this since they are stingy with custom uploads. You basically cant upload your own kitchen photos to an Idea List. I would suggest adding a link to the layout photo in the description box instead.
- Click Add comment on the item.
- Save the text or it wont show up.
- Check your privacy settings carefully. Be careful tho because the app hides these options sometimes...

- I totally agree with this. Honestly, I am dealing with the exact same headache right now for my kitchen remodel. I have been trying to upload my own layout sketches for weeks and it is just impossible.
- searched every setting
- tried desktop and app
- still nothing works I have been using Amazon for years and this is by far the most annoying limitation I have hit.
