How to build creative homemade fonts

Creating fonts is simple.

To start creating your own, first you need to answer a few questions:

Questions that will help you get started

A little planning will greatly ease your work.

That is important not to skip this part, answer all these questions.

1. What do you need them for?

Maybe it is for your kid pencil box, laptop, or notebook.

Or maybe you want to create a nice font message for your home garden.

Depending on what you need the font for, you can choose from different materials.

2. Should the font be serious or joyful?

You want to create joyful font message for a Birthday party?

For this scope you will have some very cool options.

3. Can you move the font?

If you want to create a font for your fireplace, then it means that you will keep it there and you won’t move it.

But if you are creating a font for your Christmas tree, you have to be sure that it will resist touches, and the shakes of the tree.

4. What materials do you have in your house?

Do a quick inventory and write down what materials you have:

– Lego – small and large pieces – do you plenty of them?

– Books

– Sticks

– Plastic

– Wood

– Tree branches

– Cardboard

– Clay

– Plasticine

– Ingredients for making something at the oven – biscuits in the form of letters

– Anything else that you consider helpful.

5. Are you willing to buy certain things to create gorgeous fonts?

If you don’t have any of the above materials and neither other great options, are you willing to buy some of them?

As you see, most of these questions will help you better decide what material you will use to create your homemade fonts.

Examples of how to create your own font

When you create homemade fonts, all of them will be unique.

You can easily create a gorgeous font message frame and offer it as a gift to your friend.

To do it, you can use very different materials: Lego pieces, clay, plasticine, cardboard, and other options.

1. Let’s say that you want to do it with plasticine as it is very simple.

You simply start to create all the letters you need, one by one, and you put them on a colorful cardboard.

After that, you put the cardboard in a painting frame that has the font glass.

It is that simple.

In max 20-30 minutes, you will have a homemade gorgeous gift.

Or you can use it directly in your house.

2. Write a stunning Lego message on your kid door

When your kid is not home, think for a nice message, create all the letters out of Lego pieces that he is not using, and stick them on his door.

I did it for my boy and he loved it.

I simply wrote his name, something like this – Patrick’s Room.

After he saw the message, he wanted to draw other things on his door, everything out of Lego pieces.

3. Using clay

Using clay, I made a gift to my wife when we celebrated 10 years of marriage.

I wrote her a message out of clay and I went to a local shop to burn the clay and make it porcelain.

The whole cost was around $50-$70 and the result was stunning.
