I have a resoucerce dictionary, where I declare my Icon

<ResourceDictionary xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"  
                    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"  
                    xmlns:font="clr-namespace:Fonts">  
      
    <Label x:Key="AudioText"   
           Content="{x:Static font:IconFont.VolumeHigh}"  
           FontFamily="{StaticResource Material}"  
           FontSize="120"  
           HorizontalAlignment="Center"  
           VerticalAlignment="Center"  
           Foreground="Black" />  
  
</ResourceDictionary>  

I also have another resource, where I declare my FontFamily

<ResourceDictionary xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml">  
  
    <FontFamily x:Key="Material">/Fonts/Material.ttf#Material Design Icons</FontFamily>  

And finally I have a class, that declare all my Icons

https://github.com/eduardoagr/TranscribeMe/blob/NewUI/Fonts/IconFont.cs

Then I declare my ViewModel for the SideMenu

ResourceDictionary dict =  
            Application.LoadComponent(  
            resourceLocator: new Uri(  
            "/TranscribeMe;component/IconsDictionary.xaml",  
            UriKind.RelativeOrAbsolute)) as ResourceDictionary;  
  
        public List<MenuItemData> ItemsData { get; set; } = new List<MenuItemData>();  
  
        public SideMenuControlViewModel() {  
            ItemsData.Add(new MenuItemData { Icon = (System.Windows.Controls.Label)dict["AudioText"], MenuText = Lang.AudioToText });  

MainWindow

<Border Background="#4D3A75" CornerRadius="20">  
  
        <Grid>  
            <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>  
                <ColumnDefinition Width="150"/>  
                <ColumnDefinition Width="*"/>  
            </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>  
            <local:SideMenuControl x:Name="MenuList" FontSize="20" SelectedIndex="0" SelectionChanged="MenuList_SelectionChanged"/>  
            <Frame x:Name="frame" Grid.Column="1" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch" NavigationUIVisibility="Hidden"/>  
        </Grid>  
  
    </Border>  
  
and code behind  
  
public partial class MainWindow : Window {  
    public MainWindow() {  
        InitializeComponent();  
  
        DataContext = new MainWindowViewModel();  
    }  
  
    private void Window_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) {  
        MouseDown += delegate {  
            DragMove();  
        };  
    }  
  
    private void MenuList_SelectionChanged(object sender, EventArgs e) {  
  
    }  
  
MainWindowViewModel
