Finding the right font for your project can be hard, but I’ve got a list of the 10 best doodle fonts that will get you started! The variety of font options might seem endless, and with so many to choose from, it can be hard to decide what to use. If you’re a crafter that enjoys creating your own designs or embellishing something you’ve purchased, you’re going to love this post.
What is a doodle font anyway? You may know them by their popular name, dingbats, and sometimes they’re even called wingdings. What a fun name that one is! This particular style of typeface is rather unique in that rather than letters or characters; you get an installable font with illustrations or drawings. That includes everything from simple shapes like arrows to full-on illustrations. Other fun options are flourish fonts, similar to ornaments (and no, not Christmas baubles!). Although, a flourish or ornament would be a lovely addition to those projects! Since these typefaces are installed on your computer, they come ready to use and cut with your Silhouette or Cricut. Let’s get started!
We’re starting out with a bang, crafters! This awesome doodle font is a fantastic example of just what these typefaces are all about. The font designer, Justina Tracy, has a ton of these options available, but this one is a fan favorite. A great doodle, like this one, will offer a nice variety of different images and has that incredible hand-drawn appeal. I love that the designer provides a PDF character map with the download so that you can easily see the options available to you.
