Yes, you can tweak your folders. I had to read twice to understand it. First go to your desktop, right mouseclick. Select "New Folder" and create it. Then right click on your folder icon, select "Properties" from the context menu. You will get a dialog. Click on the icon:

Select the icon you like. Now my desktop folder looks like this (note that it is also seen in Nautilus/Files)
