Favorite Fonts!

I'll admit to my addiction - I'm a font-a-holic.  I download SO many fonts to my computer that I routinely find "new" fonts that I haven't used because I forgot all about them!  Also, my work computer doesn't allow us to download fonts - it KILLS me that I can't access my fonts at work.

So, today when I was over at to the Square Inch by Kate (which is a SUPER blog!) and saw that she had joined up with the Favorite Font Linky Party hosted by Teachery Tidbits... I just had to join!


I got to flip through all my crazy fonts, found my favorites and a few that were awesome and I forgot about them!  So, here's my TOP FIVE, along with 6 Honorable Mentions!

  1. This linky is on my to do list for the week! I am a fellow font-a-holic. And I feel your pain about not being able to download fonts at work-it totally stinks! How am I supposed to create ridiculously awesome activities if I have to use the standard Windows fonts?!?!

  3. @Laura - Totally agree - standard Windows fonts are just depressing! I try to get after our tech guy to log in with the admin password so I can upload some fonts!

    @Natalie - I just found your site yesterday and I'm your newest follower over there! (But you'll get lots more with your linky! :) )

  4. Lauren,
    Where do you download your fonts from? I'm new at creating all the fun stuff. I did not realize it was possible until I started reading teachers' blogs.

  5. I <3 fonts for my classroom as well. The kids have fun trying to guess what font I am using.
    I have used www.1001fonts.com with pretty good success.
