What do you get if you mix a proper serif typeface with cartoony fun? JollyGood Proper Serif! A whimsical font legible enough to work in longer texts, it’s perfect for childrens’ books and magazines.. It is a complete complete family with 6 weights in regular and italic (12 fonts in total). It has an amazing character set, with support for most european languages, as well as alternates and ligatures.
My wife was watching a baking show in which a Scottish guy attempted to cook a clootie. A what?? A clootie??? Never heard of a clootie!
Apparently it is a suet dumpling, containing dried fruits (like raisins) and boiled in a piece of cloth (clootie means ‘rag’ or ‘strip of cloth’ in Scottish).
Clootie font is a handmade bundle of happiness. It is rounded, soft and legible and will look particularly good on book covers.
And I promise you all: one day I will cook clooties to find out what they taste like!
Kandij is a Dutch word and it means ‘Rock Sugar’. We Dutch use it in a lot of products, from ‘ontbijtkoek’ (a rye based spiced cake we sometimes eat for breakfast) to Fryske Sûkerbôle, A Frisian sweet bread.
Kandij is a fat and happy font. I’d probably use it for any book or product aimed at children, as it has a certain lumpy cuteness.
Comes with diacritics and swashes for the upper case letters.
This whimsical font family is a hand-crafted, youthful sans-serif font with three weights and two cute sister fonts...a shadow version and a "showy" version with curls and flourishes.
I read something interesting the other day: in 1910 a cat called Kiddo snuck on board an airship and was found by aeronaut Walter Wellman - after he had already taken off in an attempt to cross the Atlantic Ocean. Wellman and Kiddo spent 71 hours aboard the airship, but never completed the journey, due to engine problems and foul weather. Luckily, they were both rescued.
It was a funny story, so I decided to name a font after it.
Reluctant Aviator is a handmade font (pen and paper). It has a rough edge, some shaky glyphs and a lot of bravado. Comes with diacritics and swashes.
