Create Your Own Handwritten Font

So, this is cool.  I happened across this post on A Beautiful Mess a few days ago, about how to create your own handwritten font.  Who wouldn't love to have a font with their own writing?!


It's so easy too!  All you have to do is download the iFontMaker app.  The app lets you choose a basic font to work from and guides you through the alphabet and special characters.  You can, of course, edit, copy and paste, etc. until you are happy with the final result, which you can view by writing words or sentences in the "Compose" section.  You can then upload your font, or share a pic.  It's that simple!


Ok listen, we all know I am obsessed with my pets.  I'm not trying to hide anything here.









I love the fact that my font appears much neater than my actual handwriting.  If you have seen my actual handwriting, you know what I mean (or probably don't since it is practically illegible given the fact that I tend to jumble my letters and words together).  As a font, I can read it!  Who woulda thunk it.  Maybe I should stick with typing from now on.

  2. I've been wanting to download that app for awhile now! And I don't know how your handwriting can be illegible normally! It looks so perfect as a font!

  3. Awesome! I was always the notetaker in school because I had the "prettiest" and most legible handwriting.
    Maybe I can sell it now :)

    LOL
