My 20 Favorite Free Handwriting Fonts




I'm in the "in-between" stage of all the Back-To-School excitement: beyond the age of school/college myself, and no kids yet that I get send off into that crazy jungle that is our educational system.  However, I've been seeing and hearing all kinds of things that indicate it's the back-to-school time of year.  And even though I'm not using them for school, I've definitely taken advantage of a few of the back-to-school deals at staples for some office supplies for myself!


In honor of this glorious time of year (which I say in sarcasm because I pretty much hated school - not the act of learning so much as the institutionalization of it), I decided to put together a list of some amazing handwriting fonts!  Who doesn't love a good handwriting font??  I use them for all sorts of projects: card-making, signage, scrapbooking, and many other crafting projects around my house!  I really like to make lists of my favorite fonts because I have literally thousands of them on my computer and unless I can remember their names (and of course there are way too many that I like to remember all of them), I often spend way too much time searching through the alphabetized list to find the perfect one for a project.  I thought I'd share some of my preferred handwriting fonts on my website, so that they'd be easy for you to find, too! And maybe you'll discover some new favorites to download - perfect for school-time or any occasion!  And best yet, they are all FREE, so go crazy!







And yes, school taught me well… I'm including my references! ;)  Here's where you can get these awesome fonts:


17. KG Call Me Maybe - Skinny
18. Always forever
19. BD Paris
20. Dead Hardy

Here are a few print-out projects that I've made using some of these fonts! :)



 This is a quote that I love from JK Rowling.  I used Dead Hardy and eight fifteen fonts.

This 2 Timothy 1:7 verse uses KG Call Me Maybe - Skinny and Haiku's Script v.08.

 For the proverbs 31:25 verse, I used Calligriffiti and Dead Hardy again.

  7. Dafont.com is a site where you can download a ton of free fonts. You can search for a specific typeface, or search by the type of lettering you want, whether it’s serif or sans serif, hand lettered or grunge style. You can also put in your own phrase to see how it looks in a particular font. A lot of these fonts are very decorative and many are handdrawn, so it’s not always the best place to search for body text fonts. Each selection also tells you whether your download is free for personal or commercial use. The download is easy – you get a zip file with the font file inside. Unzip, install, and you’re ready to go.
