This is going to be a weekly installment here. If you know me, you know I am happily addicted to fonts. Part of my daily routine online is to visit My Fonts and browse what Hot New Fonts they’re promoting, or to help identify fonts in their What The Font?! forum. I often find myself adding to my shopping cart while there. But who can blame me?! So many fonts, so many possibilities!

I thought I would share some of my favorite fonts, and perhaps what I’ve learned about fonts along the way here once a week. I have a strong affinity for fancy scripts with lots of opentype features, so if these posts seem partial to those, I make no apologies!

This week I want to discuss a brand new favorite! I’ve yet to use it in a project, but the right idea will come along and she will be put to use.

Meet: Melany Lane

Melany Lane is a whimsical hand drawn font from Yellow Design Studio. They were having a great sale for both weights of Melany Lane, as well as ornaments and seamless patterns for a low price! So I of course took advantage. I love opentype fonts and the ability to make each word your own by playing with alternate features.

I plan to put Miss Melany Lane to work very soon!
