Today I want to show you how to find and download awesome and beautiful free fonts and add them to Cricut Design Space on both Windows and Mac. First I will show you where to get the best free fonts, which I think is at Dafont.com - I’ve been using this site safely for years myself. Just be sure to go to dafont.com exactly as shown here. Free fonts are at your own risk, of course, but dafont.com is generally considered safe.
On dafont.com, you’ll see different categories near the top which you can browse, and if you scroll down you’ll see the most recent ones - note that most are free for personal use, not commercial use. If you want to use these fonts on things you’ll sell, check the font descriptions for contact information so you can purchase a license. I’ve used many of the awesome fonts here for my personal projects, there are just so many choices. Under Script font right here, which I know so many of us love, you’ll see all sorts of beautiful fonts. For example, “Hello Honey” which looks like it even has extras in it, like the heart. In the video, I point out a couple of cool things that will help you find the right font for your project. First, you can sort by popularity if you want to see what fonts others like too. Or you can sort my newest or size. And you can preview what each font will look like in your chosen text by typing it in the Preview box right.

So very helpful! Your instructions are clear and you don't over talk or drag on before you get to the facts! I love that! You really know what your doing! I will use your videos exclusively!! Thank you!!

Awesome tutorial! I have always struggled with finding fonts. You have cleared the way for me to design with much more confidence. Also, I had always wondered how to make use of the character maps. Thank you bunches!!!
You are so welcome!
Jennifer, I can't thank you enough for ALL of your clear, well thought out videos, designs, classes, etc. I get stuck on something (like downloading new fonts) and there you are with an amazing video guiding me step by step through the process and giving me all sorts of additional, helpful information (like where to get free fonts). You, and your staff, are amazing! Thank you!
I'm so glad!
Thank you so much for this Jennifer. It is a time saver, and oh so helpful. I have extreme time constraints and am unable to take your schedule classes when you have them. I can get bits and pieces this way with your TH-cam videos, and this was so timely for me. So, thanks again.
You are so welcome!
Thank you so much!! This is AWESOME!! So easy to follow your instructions! You are a wonderful teacher and I appreciate all that you do for us!!!!
You are so welcome!
Just watched this today (3 times), I followed along for Mac & everything was just as you said. Thank you so much for your detailed videos
You are so welcome!
You’re a great teacher! I’ve been using dafont for years and still learned a few things - including OTF vs TTF!
Yay, happy I was able to share something to help!
Jennifer, thank so much for all you do to share and educate others on the Cricut...It is always soooo helpful!!
You are so welcome!
Thank you Jennifer, I just found you this week when I was looking for help with my Cricut Joy that I have treated myself to this week. You have helped me so much getting started. I have learnt so much already. To be honest, I am kind of obsessed...I look forward to learning more from your videos. Unfortunately there are not many stores you can buy Cricut material from in the Netherlands, so I have to look online and there is so much available, which is kind of overwhelming...but I have already learnt to do some small projects and am learning from my mistakes. I love it!
I'm so glad to hear it, yay!!! 💗
Jennifer, Thank you! I always learn something new when I watch your videos. ❤
I'm happy to hear that!
Jennifer, thank you so much for this video and all your videos and putting them on TH-cam. TH-cam has been the easiest way to find your videos when I'm looking for something specific.
You are so welcome!
GREAT JOB!!! Amazing tutorial. Thank you so much!
Thank you Ms. Jennifer, your tutorial is so clear and easy to navigate.. just did it in my laptop (window's)
Glad it helped!
Hello Jennifer. I cannot express how thankful I am for you. I’m completely lost and overwhelmed in Cricut Design and finding this video was right on time. You are full of knowledge and so kind to share it with us for free. Thanks so much ❤
You are so welcome!
Thank you!!! Such a great tutorial. As a Mac user, I struggle to find instructional videos that are compatible. 🥴 Yours was perfection, and you clearly explained every step along the way (including the most common errors made and how to fix it, lol). This video saved my Mac from another attempted ☠️ by way of being thrown out the window. 🤣 The Mac and I both thank you! ❤
love your lessons, and specially love you and your way to give us all those tips, tricks and craft ideas and patterns!
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much Jennifer! I always learn something when watching your videos!
You are so welcome! 💗
Hi Jennifer, Thank you so much for this video! I was trying to find the exact font, "Hello Honey", that you shared to add to my design. I appreciate that you shared step by step how to find and add fonts to the Cricut Design Space. I learned so much more than just adding fonts. As I was listening and taking notes, I realized that I downloaded your Cricut Font Finder cheat sheets in BOOKS awhile ago! Lol!, shows how overwhelmed that I am...so glad that you mentioned it. Thanks for being amazing and sharing your knowledge in details that can be easily followed.
You are so welcome! Thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing with us!

Thank You so much! Design Space made that a bit more challenging than it had to be. If I had not found this video I wouldn't have ever figured that out. With your clear instructions it was very simple and easy to do!

Thank you so much for this video! I haven't used my Cricut for a while and I though all my previously downloaded fonts were just gone from design space! I must have re extracted and tried re-downloading 15 times before I found your video and discovered the "system" option for fonts. Thanks a million!
I'm glad you found it helpful🥰
Hello Jennifer. I am fairly new to Cricut and because of you and your amazing “how to” videos I am starting to enjoy using this machine!! The calmness in the way you present things is amazing!! Thank you so much for all you are doing to help with this learning process!!
Thank you so much!!
Thank you!! This was so very helpful!! I don't think I would have ever figured out how to save and use fonts and special characters on my own. You taught this old girl so new tricks... ones I needed.

Your happiness is infectious! It's like you're able to know the questions that I need answered! I can pretty much watch your video's and do them right away. Thanks again for the great video's, and your happiness for what you are doing!
Thank you so much for sharing this. I have had the original circuit for longer than I can remember, lol, and I could never figure it out. I ended up putting it in the closet and leaving it there. I recently started a small business making cards and i am learning so much from your videos. This is so much easier to use than fussy cutting things out or using die cuts.
That's wonderful! Good luck with your business. ❤️
@@JenniferMaker thank you
You are so kind to teach us and it is very much appreciated ☺
My pleasure 😊
Thanks for telling the difference between OTF and TTF fonts. Until I started using my Cricut, I always thought OTF fonts were for macs. I am sure many thought this too.
Also, I wanted to let you know that I used your wonderful handwriting font to address and write all my Christmas cards last year. It was a big hit!
Oh, I'm happy you found my handwriting font useful -- hooray!
Oh my gosh! You are simply divine and brilliant! Thank you for this wonderful info.
Oh wow, thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! 💗
Thank you so much for this tutorial I am obsessed with these cool free fonts.

I love technical tutorials like this one. Although I’ve been working with computer fonts for decades, I still learned some useful things from this video 🙂
Great to hear!
Great job! You explained so much!

OMG THANK YOUUUUUU! I am so in love with your videos
Thank you! 🥰
Thank you! I really needed this!
Glad to help!
This is such a helpful video! Thank you so much!!
You're so welcome!
I always always ALWAYS come to your videos for help bc they are by far the BEST. I’m having issues finding “repertoire” on my MAC. I was able to do things on windows way easier lol but if you have any suggestions…I’ll take them and run 😆Thanks so much for all of your help.!
I can’t decompress or extract fonts 😭😭😭 I’m not seeing the fonts on my iPhone or iPad
@@elizabethcochran333 it’s so frustrating!
Hi! It should be in your font folder. When you search for fonts and you have downloaded it, it will be there. Then when you install it, it will automatically show up in Design Space.
@@JenniferMaker I’m not sure what I was doing wrong because I always restart my pc when I install a font. I reinstalled the one I was trying to use, restarted and it worked but let me tell you leading up to that was a nightmare for my family 😂
I thank you for these videos I am learning so much from you. I haven't had time until recently to actually watch an do at the same time. My generous husband saw me struggling with my phone an computer trying to learn so he bought me dual monitors so I could watch an learn an do at the same time. I'm so grateful that I can stop an go back as many times as needed until I get it.
Glad to hear that!
Wow….what a great video! Thank you so much! 🤩💐
You are so welcome!
I was about to throw my cricut machine and computer out the door I was getting so frustrated. You were the only person who’s video actually solved my problem! Thank you so much for this video!❤
Glad I could help!
I completely understand, mine was on it's way out too 😂😂
Same, you are a life saver. Thanks so much for this
I was struggling trying to install it in my Cricut; thank you so much!
