How To Create A Blog Signature in Your Own Handwriting | The Thinking Closet

“Yo yo yo, this is your girl L-Money, comin’ at you live on the microphone with a bliggitty blogging tip to help give your John Hancocks some suga’ and spice.  Bricka, bricka, what?!  It’s gonna be tight, y’all.  You feel me?”

Before you all run for the hills, let me explain that intro.  I taught 9th grade English for three years when we lived in Ohio, and I would sometimes start my classes in a similar fashion, using street slang or a southern accent…maybe even my best cockney.  And though it inevitably would be met with a mix of dead-eyed stares and snickers, it got their attention.  And as a teacher, attention is what you crave.  So, make a fool of myself I would…all in the name of education.

So maybe, just maybe, I’ve captured your attention now, too?  That was my master plan all along.  Mwah-ha-ha….  But before I get too chatty and lose it, let’s dive in to a quick n’ easy tutorial on how to create a blog signature in your own handwriting.  

Why a blog signature?

  • It makes you memorable.  This blogging world is wide…so it’s important to remind your readers WHO you are.  Seeing a signature in contrast to your post font will help your name stand-out.
  • It’s personal.  You’re reminding your readers that a human wrote those words…a human with a name!  And a post looks less like a textbook page and more like a personal letter when there’s a signature at the end of it.
  • It speaks to who you are.  How wonderful if your signature can reflect even more of your personality by being in your actual handwriting!

Okay, you’ve convinced me.  So, how do I do it?

1) Create your own font.  Go to www.myscriptfont.com where you can print and fill out the template they provide.  I just used a medium felt-tip pen, which they suggest, or you can also do it digitally if you have a tablet.

You select which characters on the bottom to include.

Scan your completed template, then upload it to the website.  This is where you determine the name of your font, so choose wisely.  It takes a few minutes to process your font, after which you can save it to your computer.  In order to use your font in a word processing program, you have to save it to the right folder.  Just follow the instructions in the About section.  (For Mac OS X users, save your file to Macintosh HD – Library – Fonts.)

2) Play around with your font.

For fun, I turned my asterisk into a star and my tilda into a heart.

It was so easy to create the first font, I thought I’d try a second one…a wilder one!

This time, I turned my ampersand into a sideways “AND.”

3)  Type up your signature, and save it as a picture.  I’m going to share two different ways to do this, one in PowerPoint and one in Microsoft Word.  In either program, you’ll want to type up your signature first.  Maybe you want your full name, your first name, your blog title, or a nickname…you’re the king or queen of your castle, so you decide!  Then, customize it in terms of size, color, and character spacing.

Now, refer to the screenshot below for the next step in PowerPoint:

If you’re using Microsoft Word or another word processing program, you’ll need to take a screenshot of your signature: for most Mac users, you should be able to click command-shift-4 and have a special cursor pop up with crosshairs that allows you draw a box around your font, and when you let it go, it snaps a photo.  Check your finder to grab the screenshot and drag it to a folder where you can access it easily.  For Windows users, you’ll press the “print screen” button to get a shot of the whole screen that you can crop in a photo editing program.  Or click here to read a tutorial on how to use a snipping tool method where you can take a free-form snip of the screen.

Note: While both signatures were crisp, my eye preferred the one taken in Word using a screenshot…and I was able to get a closer crop with it, too.

4) Upload your signature to your blog.  Add your new file to your blog’s media library and insert it into your post as a picture file.  (You can refer to the bottom of this post for an example!)  OR there are ways to have your signature post automatically; it just requires editing your post template on Blogger or adding a plug-in on WordPress.  Here’s a post by The Crafty Mummy with the break-down.

So, there you go.  Now you have all the tools at your fingertips to create your own font, turn it into a picture file, and use it to bid your readers adieu at the end of your posts.  Now, I know y’all are chomping at the bit to get to work on creating your handwritten font, so I’ll wrap things up.

Those of you who have been following The Thinking Closet since the early days last fall may have recognized a portion of this tutorial from my post on DIY Clothing Labels with Personalized Font.  For any of y’all with sewing machines, you may want to check that puppy out.

    1. Best of luck! Let me know if you have any issues; would love to help you troubleshoot if I can.

  1. I am sooooo obsessed with fonts! As a college student, I type notes a lot. This will be perfect because I can type them in my own handwriting, which will make it easier to read when printed.

    1. Hooray! (I love discovering others who share in my font obsession.) And that’s a great idea to type up notes in your own handwriting; I wonder how that would impact your retention of the material…if your brain would latch onto it better when seeing it in a font that is familiar to you. I see a college research study being born from this comment, Simone! ๐Ÿ˜‰

    1. Hip hip hooray! Thanks for letting me know, Katie! And I’ll definitely be by later to grab a button for my FEATURES page.

  2. I Just LOOOOVE this post Lauren! I didn’t even know I could make my own font so easily, I downloaded a software to make fonts and stuff but it seamed so complicated, This is just perfet!!! I will check it out! AWESOME share! Thanks so much for stopping by and sharing this at Bewitch Me & Titi! Hope to have you back tomorrow with more awesome shares!

    Hope you are having a lovely weekend!!!

    Hugs
    Cami @ TitiCrafty by Camila

    1. Wow, I didn’t know there was software that you could download for this sort of thing. Yes, MyScriptFont makes it really easy for those of us who are font-design novices. I’m glad to hear you’re going to check it out, Camila! And thanks for hosting your Bewitch Me & Titi party; will be sure to stop by to share the project I post tomorrow. Hugs back!

    1. Anja, it’s loads of fun to be able to look at your signature and be like, “Yep. That’s the real deal.” ๐Ÿ˜‰ Have a ball creating your own font!

  9. Hi Lauren,
    Love your blog! I am your newest follower.

    I have been wanting to have my own signature and wondering how to do it now I am going to pin it and create one later on.

    Thank you so much,
    Ellya

    CuriositaEllya

    1. Thank you for the kind words, Ellya, for following, and for the pin! I’m so glad to hear that you’ve caught my excitement over creating your own font and blog signature. You’re going to love it! And I just came back from a visit to Curiosita Ellya. What a beautiful story you have on your ABOUT page…and your posts are filled with such grippingly gorgeous photos.

  10. Thanks for this tutorial. My blog will be up and running soon and I would love to add my personal signature. I never knew we could create and save our own font! LOVE this.

    1. How exciting that you have a blog in the works. Best of luck to you! (I know that the behind-the-scenes work can be a bear…but it will be so worth it in the end.) Hope this tutorial makes for an easy job of whipping up your own blog signature for the new space. Let me know when it’s up and running! I’d love to stop by, Jeanna.

    1. Happy to help shed some light, Jeni! It’s not as tricky as it may initially seem…. (Love it when that happens.)

    1. Thanks for the pin and for the invitation, Cathy! I’m a bit behind on my linky parties…but if I can get caught up, I’ll definitely stop by.

    1. Of course, Sharon! Glad that you found it inspirational. Hoping you get a pocket of time someday soon to squeeze this project in; it’s a lot of fun!

  11. I’ve literally been meaning to do this FOREVER, but have been procrastinating on it, and I don’t love my handwriting so it gave me more reason to put it on the back burner. Seeing how easy it can be and how awesome it looks, though, is quickly making me change my mind and wanting to do it RIGHT NOW! Another wonderful tutorial, Lauren. So clear and informative!!

    1. I bet Thalita font is far cooler than you’re making it out to be. And you might be surprised at how your font looks on the screen when typed up compared to scribbled on the page. I know I was! ๐Ÿ™‚ Glad to hear that this tutorial may have nipped your font-making procrastination in the bud!

  12. You probably have mentioned this somewhere on your blog already, but I’ve already exhausted my daily minutes of school work procrastination… What program do you use to make your title graphics, like the one at the top of this post? Any chance that it’s free? I’m currently designing my roommate’s wedding invitations in PowerPoint (yeah, grad school livin’), and it’s working all right, but there are real limitations. Because, you know, it’s for presentation slides, not invitations. ๐Ÿ™‚

    1. Lol. Your last line cracked me up, Becky. To answer your question, I mostly use pixlr express (which is free) and this particular graphic is a combination of pixlr express and picmonkey (also free). I just downloaded free digital scrapbook paper for the background, the scalloped frame and banner comes in picmonkey, and the text was added in pixlr express. I did a whole video tutorial on how to use pixlr express here…though it’s pretty user-friendly. When I designed my wedding invitations, I downloaded a free 30 day trial of Adobe InDesign that proved really useful, so there’s an option for you, too! Can’t wait to catch up and hear more about this fun design project….

  13. Thank you so much for showing how to do this! I cannot even begin to tell you how many years I have wanted to do this, “why can’t people type in their own handwriting?!”! I appreciate you showing me how! I can’t wait!!

    1. Wow! I’m honored to have helped end your years-long quest! I, too, was ecstatic when I first discovered that I could design my own font. There’s something just so empowering about being able to create digital text in your own handwriting. Let me know how it goes for you, Alyssa!

    1. Ha ha! I love your enthusiasm over this, Allison! I personally have a feeling that “Allison” font is going to be the new New Century Gothic (my old go-to move). Let me know when your font goes viral on dafont.com!

    1. So glad that you found it useful, Darcel! Hope you had a great weekend yourself. Mine was a little bit more extraordinary than unusual, and I’ll be back later this week to tell y’all why. Anyway, thanks for the warm wishes!

  14. My girl, L-money, I don’t know how you do it, but you’ve amazed me again with another helpful and creative tip. Plus, you definitely got my attention. Having received a beautifully written, thoughtful card from you which I will cherish forever, I can attest that the signature is indeed your handwriting and not an elaborate plan to trick us. Seriously, thanks for the info. I’m excited to give it a try!

    1. J-Sauce, thanks for vouching for the validity of my handwriting! I know you’ve always got my back. (That would be rather sneaky of me to try to trick you all to believe I had created my font…but I wouldn’t put it past me!) Ha ha. ๐Ÿ™‚

  15. FUN!!! I had no idea this even existed! What a great way to personalize a blog even more. Also, you seem like the best teacher ever and I’m sure your students love you for crazy openings like that! Have a great weekend, Lauren!

    ~Abby =)

    1. Aw, shucks! Thanks, Abby! I think I won them over eventually with my quirky sense of humor…though they certainly pretended they were too cool for school for the first quarter of the school year. Once they got over that, some of them would even venture to respond to my questions in fun accents. Now THAT I appreciated!

      Hope you had a fantastic weekend, Abby.

  16. great tutorial Lauren! I love this! I can make my own! but I don’t have the pen to do it! & don’t know if it would work with my tablet! I will still try it! ๐Ÿ™‚ btw, forgot to mention, I’m a bit “obsessed” with my label machine too! ๐Ÿ˜‰ Hope you will have a great weekend Lauren! It’s Nate’s 2nd birthday party this weekend !!! ๐Ÿ™‚

    1. Happy birthday to Nate! Hope it’s a sweet time of celebrating. Ha ha, and I love that you share my love of labeling! I sort of figured so much with your epic kitchen storage system! And do you have a Staples in Montreal? That’s where I got mine.

  17. Filing this away under “useful tips for the future” – I love that your tutorials are so simple to follow! Great job, you.

    1. Aw, thanks, girlfriend. So happy to hear that found this both useful and easy to follow, Johanna! Happy weekend to you.

  18. how fun, i was just searching today how i can get my own font on my blog and what do i come up to when logging in wordpress?…your article.

    just love it! <3 …and i very much like your handwriting. i think i have to work on my own one ๐Ÿ˜€

    1. I wish I could have said I planned it that way, but it was just serendipity at work! (Love it when timing works out like that.) And thanks for the compliment on my handwriting. It’s nearly identical to my Mom’s, so she gets all the credit! ๐Ÿ˜‰

  19. Thanks for the great tutorial (that is also so easy to follow). This is my first time visiting your blog and I am hooked:)

    1. Aw, that makes me so happy to hear, Laura! And I’m glad you found the tute easy and helpful. That was my hope! Happy Friday to you!

  20. I too am no stranger to the street slang or accents. You do what you must.
    Thanks for the how to. I’ve wondered about this. One more item for my to do list ๐Ÿ™‚ So many cool things to do, so little time.

    1. Oh yes…in some ways I feel like street slang and accents are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the lengths we’ll go to in order to garner students’ attention. Tapdancing, backflips, juggling…”let me entertain you,” I sing! ๐Ÿ˜‰ (I know you understand this, my teacher friend.)

      And yes: so many cool things…I can’t pin ideas fast enough, it seems!

    1. Hollaaaaaaa back! ๐Ÿ˜‰ Thanks for playing along, Berennisse…and I hope you have a fantasmagorical (or should I say font-tastic) weekend.

  21. Great idea! And your tutorial is really easy to follow. I’m adding this to my To Do list!

    Thanks for the mention of my blog too ;o)

    1. Of course, Tonya! I was really glad to find a tutorial like yours that covered suggestions for both Blogger and WordPress…very helpful indeed. Thanks for taking the time to stop by and say hi! Great to “meet” you!

  22. Awesome post! I really have to do this (now I just have to find the time) :o) I hope you don’t mind that I pinned this ;o) Hope you had a wonderful Thursday!

    1. I’m THRILLED that you pinned it, Elena. Pin away, my friend! And have a wonderful weekend.

  23. You are so creative, girl! How did you become so tech-savvy? I love your tutorial and will definitely be trying this one as soon as I can access a scanner!

    And I definitely think I wouldn’t be able to stop at just one font ๐Ÿ˜‰ Hope you’ve had a great week, Lauren!

    1. Lol. Not sure I would consider myself tech-savvy…but when I finally figure something out, I’m eager to share it! Have fun creating your fonts galore, Heather!

    1. I love it when I feel like I can hear someone’s voice through their comment (this is one of those comments). And I love your enthusiasm, Kelly!

    1. Be forewarned: once you make one custom font, it’s really hard not to make two. Especially if you doodled your way through high school like I did. ๐Ÿ˜‰

    1. You are so welcome! And there are probably many ways to go about this…this one just happened to be the easiest for me! Hope it’s smooth sailing for you, too, Nancy.

  24. Poifect (she says “Perfect” for those that can’t decipher it).

    This would be so nice when replying to emails and when I want to personalize some menu announcements or specials.

    You are such a genious! Thanks!

    1. Oh, I decifered you loud n’ clear! “Poifect” is a favorite saying in my family…sort of a mimicry of an accent a la old New York. It also goes with “Toity toid sta-reet.” (Translation: 33rd Street.)

      And how creative are you? I love the idea of using a custom signature on your restaurant menu announcements or specials! If you’re not working on a white background, you can convert your text to an image in Picasa, which also allows you to make the background transparent. Pretty nifty, huh?

      1. And yet another future tutorial. How DO you find the time for all that you do? And just wait til after this weekend when your relatives are gone. I am sure you will develop many more ideas during their stay with you. OVERLOAD for sure!

        1. Lol. The answer to that question is that I stay up really late at night…and our house is usually messy and I let the laundry go way too long before doing it…and I’m only working part-time…and I LOVE blogging, so it’s a fun investment of time. ๐Ÿ™‚

          It has been great having my family in town! This might be my last comment reply before Monday as I’m just going to soak it all up, and as you said, develop more ideas! Have a great weekend, Karen.

    1. Oooo! I didn’t even know you could do such a thing (submit your handwriting to become a font)…do it, do it, do it! And you’ve got a good question about kerning. (Thanks for the definition b.t.w. Definitely saved me a trip to the google.) They don’t let you customize that in the program (the template is a standard size), but…I wonder if you could “hack” it by recreating your own grid that was just tweaked slightly to your specifications…or you could just adapt the size of your letters in the boxes (that would be a bit of a guessing game, tho). Sounds like an experiment for The Experimental Home!

  25. hilarious! i bet you left a lasting impression on them for sure…this is very helpful. I need to re-read it later tonight and try it . I did get a signature in my blog but I felt like it was too big and the bottom of the post got too heavy with graphics but I may give it another go- thanks a bunch!

    1. I have such fond memories of reading sections of To Kill a Mockingbird aloud to them in a southern drawl (seemed appropriate). At the sound of the bell, I’d say, “Y’all come back now y’hear?” They always did. ๐Ÿ˜‰

      If you like your current blog signature except for the size, you can resize it using pixlr or picmonkey…. Then again, I think you’d have a lot of fun playing around with a font in your own pretty handwriting, too.

  26. I love fonts. Too much. This is why you almost never see my photos with fonts on them. I could easily spend HOURS trying to decide what style to put on the photo. It drives me insane. It sometimes takes me more than the blog post. I love how they look (yours is a great example) but man for myself, I am useless. This is a great tutorial especially if you want to steal someone’s awesome handwriting and get them to do it for you. I say this as my hand writing is chicken scratch. You probably get this as a teacher but can you see the changes in this coming generation? They type and don’t really hand write anymore. The art of penmanship is fading and it’s so sad.

    1. I love that you have a font addiction Alex, and that you’ve had to quit them all together as a result! And I’m just chuckling inside to envision you on your quest to find the friend with the best handwriting to create a font for you. I can just see you marching from person to person at a party, getting them to show you their best. Lol. (Don’t ask. I see things theatrically, I suppose!)

      And I’ve had to navigate some pretty bad handwriting chicken scratch on student work…and believe it or not, the typing isn’t much better. I was shocked at how many of my students didn’t even know how to tab indent to start a new paragraph; instead, I would hear the sound of the space bar being thwacked 20 times in a row. Or they would hit return after each line to double-space their papers. Drove me bonkers. So, I ended up spending a good portion of laptop time just showing them how to set up their documents. We probably could have stood to have a lesson or 10 in penmanship, too! Sigh. I console myself with the hope that the pendulum will swing back the other way at some point. Or are we too far gone?

    1. My pleasure, Susan! Glad it garnered a “Wowza!” from you (one of my own personal favorite exclamatory remarks if I might add).

  27. Great tutorial! I keep meaning to actually make my own font. I think It would be fun to throw the font around the blog. After reading your tutorial the first time, I went and made a signature just using the fonts they have on hand. I should really update it so its in my own handwriting. Thanks for reminding me! <3 you!

    1. Glad you enjoyed it! And I know I’d love to see a signature in your own font, mostly because I’m just so gosh darned curious as to what Bethany handwriting looks like (is it strange, though, that I have a picture in my mind of what I think it will look like?).

  28. I am jumping up and down at my desk at work over this. SO awesome!!! I’ve always wanted the “groupie” part of my logo in MY handwriting – now I can make it happen. Thank you for sharing this! ๐Ÿ˜€

    1. You’re so welcome! I’m jumping up and down with you, Miranda! I love your idea for including your own font in your logo (it’s a pretty sweet logo as is…but now I envision it getting all the sweeter!).

  29. Although I love my signature, which I made just with normal fonts I boughtโ€ฆ I neeeed a scanner to make my own handwritten font! I saw this a few times in the last years and never had a chance making my own.
    But using the tablet could maybe work! I will try – although I’m not very good in writing with this tablet-penโ€ฆโ€ฆ We’ll see!

    Love, Midsommarflicka

    1. Yes, definitely give the tablet-pen option a try and report back! I’m curious as to whether or not the quality would be as crisp that way. Can’t wait to see what Midsommarflicka font looks like! I’m predicting that it will be pretty whimsical….

  30. Very cool! I could play around with that website all day! I’ve been meaning to create a blog signature for about… a year and a half, haha. Hopefully you’ve inspired me to actually do it ๐Ÿ™‚

    1. Lol. I know! I’ve been at this blogging game much shorter than you have, and already my blogging “to do” list is a mile long. One item at a time, I suppose!

  31. I learned how to do this from another tutorial on a blog, but I’ll be trying your method shortly – as in after 5pm because I’m already at work READING your blog and I can’t risk any more non work related productivity while on the clock. ๐Ÿ˜› OH, and that OTHER tutorial you did on pixlr??? Yeah, I taught that to my husband two nights ago, and I’ll be teaching a friend of ours too. THANKS! ๐Ÿ˜›

    THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TUTORIALS! ๐Ÿ™‚
    Maryellen
    http://www.eatloveliverepeat.com

    1. Lol. I’m definitely honored that you would steal away at work to read my blog! ๐Ÿ˜‰ Not that I want to distract you, but well, I’m flattered.

      I’m also very glad to hear that you’re spreading the pixlr gospel, one person at a time. Thank you for reading and watching my tutorials at all, Maryellen! And the fact that you put them into practice is icing on the cake! Readers like you motivate me to keep on sharing.

      Have a great rest of your week!

  32. What a wonderful tutorial. This is exactly how I want to proceed with my blog. I love handwriting, although, I guess this format will still need to be print, not cursive (curses!). Still, looks lovely.

    OOoooh, and the handwritten clothing tags? Just what I need for my mother-in-law. Would make a great gift for her, no? After all, she makes all of the granddaughters’ dresses for all birthdays and holidays. It would be great to allow her to ‘sign’ her pieces.

    Note to self: Fix Microsoft Word for your Mac. Start using Power Point. ๐Ÿ˜€

    1. You know, Christine, I actually think script could work. My font in print ends up being very close together (the finished product actually has tiny spaces in between each letter that I added). I haven’t yet tried it, but I think it’s definitely possible! Maybe you can be the bold adventurer for us both? (And I lol’d at your cursive (curses) comment!)

      So glad that you might try to make the handwritten clothing tags! You can even have your MIL fill out the grid of letters without explaining what it’s for (I love a good surprise). And as the dresses get passed down, they will forever hold her mark!

  33. Yo, L-Money! Great tutorial!! ๐Ÿ™‚ I’ll be adding this to my list of awesome ways to improve my blog, etc. ๐Ÿ™‚ Sounds so cool, and I’ve always loved your signature at the end of your blogs.
    Kenley

    1. Thanks, K-Dawg! And your blog is already so awesome, I’m not sure it get an awesomer. (Yes, I’ve declared “awesomer” a word.)

  34. AHHHH You are speaking to my soul right now! I am pretty much obsessed with fonts (it’s bad, Lauren), but never really took the time to figure out how to make one myself. I am definitely making some fonts! That will be my Friday project tomorrow ๐Ÿ˜€ I also don’t use a signature at the end of my posts, but you have convinced me! I’m adding that to my to-do list tomorrow, too. ๐Ÿ™‚ Since you use wordpress, just curious, but is there a way to preset your signature so it’s always at the end of your posts? Or do you manually insert it each time?

    Thanks girl! I’m excited for this. ๐Ÿ™‚

    xoxo
    Melyssa

    1. Your enthusiasm over fonts is delightful, Melyssa! And I’m so glad you’re going to make your own font tomorrow. It’s shockingly easy.

      And I’m also glad you asked about having the signature automatically inserted at the end of your posts because I had meant to include a link about that, but it slipped my mind! So, I’ve edited the post to include a source that explains the how-to for those on Blogger and recommends some plug-ins for WordPress. You can find that post here and a second one that includes an option for editing your functions.php file here. I’ve been holding off on that myself because sometimes plug-ins and php files scare me, but you’ve motivated me to reconsider. Although it only takes a few seconds to add it manually as a picture each time, it would be much easier for the long haul if it was just automatic! Let me know how it goes for you! ๐Ÿ˜‰

        1. Ahhh! I’m in head-over-heels love with your font and new signature! Wow, it’s even more magnificent than I imagined before clicking over. It feels so “you”, Melyssa, and really adds such a sweet personal touch. I’m just so very excited that you took this on and already added signatures to your blog posts. I might need to start calling you Motivated Melyssa! And thanks for the tip on the plug-in. Although I’m not uber excited about manually going through my old posts and deleting my signature pic, I’m sure it would save me time and effort in the end. Thanks, girl!
