Stylish Hand-Lettered Fonts

So many new font designers are coming up with the most stylish handlettered fonts! I rounded up my favorites to share with you. These would be perfect for use in brand identities, social media graphics, and ads.

Which one is your favorite?

These fonts are great if you’re going for a whole range of moods: stylish & artistic, casual & welcoming, natural & authentic, polished & informal, charming & friendly. They will not work if you want something fancy and formal, of course. (Check out my list of the best calligraphic script fontsΒ )

Pro Tip 1: do not use these in body text where the font sizes have to be small; they will only work for headings, in large sizes, or as highlights.

Pro Tip 2: because these have a more informal look, pair them with a sans-serif font for best results. Like Sweet Sans, Lato, Coco Gothic, or Montserrat.

I’ve listed the sources below, in case you’re interested:

Here are some graphics I created using some of the fonts above. Can you guess which one is which?

    Dear Patricia,

    I really like your page and your style and your ideas.
    So I’ve a question for you because I’ve been struggeling with this for over a year.
    I’m from the Netherlands and I have my own salon in nails, lashes and brows beside my work at the hospitel.

    Now I have this hudge problem, I can’t think of a catchy name for my salon.

    Maybe you can help me cause you seem like a super creative person.
    And do you design logo’s? And what are the cost?

    I hope to hear from you πŸ˜‰

    With love
    Roos

    My name means rose btw, it’s not a must to have that in the name though.

      Hi Roos! Yes, I do design logos, but for your name, I think you’d best talk to a brand strategist who can help you find your voice. πŸ™‚ Look up ginnykrauss.com or maybe freshpages.co for brand messaging.
