Fonts We're Feeling: Dec 2021

Merry Christmas and happy holidays to all!

If you’re new here and you’re wondering what this Fonts We’re Feeling series is even about - don’t worry, I’ve got you! Every month I round up and share fonts that have caught my eye over the last month.

With that said, if you happened to miss the inaugural post from November 2021, go ahead and check it out! Maybe you’ll find a new font to use in your next project.

Fonts We're Feeling: Nov 2021

No, there isn’t a typo in the title of this post. I just forgot to add this to the blog weeks ago.

I’ve decided to create a monthly series where I share some of the fonts I’ve been loving. Hopefully you discover some new favourites along the way!

My Go-To Fonts

Hello, my name is Tenisha, and I have shiny font syndrome.

This doesn’t mean that I literally like shiny fonts (okay, fine, the rose gold ones are pretty), but it means I have a tendency to buy fonts I swear I’ll use one day that would be absolutely perfect for various projects. As a result, I have a lot of fonts installed on my computer, and I have yet to use the majority of them.

Does that stop me from browsing Creative Market and buying $2 fonts that I technically don’t need right now, but probably will in the future? Nope.

Green Thumb Mockup - Phase 1

I mentioned in the Green Thumb Storyboard post that I went too far with the mockup, compared to my classmates. At the beginning of the Intro to UI/UX course, we were told that we could either recreate an existing app or website or create one from scratch as the project we would work on over 6 weeks. I chose to do a little bit of both.

I have mentioned Green Thumb. It’s even listed as a project here, but I’m not going to sugarcoat anything. That first version is not my best work. There are only three screens and it doesn’t show how a user would navigate through the app. I wanted to revise it and this was the perfect chance to do so.

With that said, I was up to my knees in it. MY KNEES.

Green Thumb Storyboard

A few things have happened since the last post.

1) I completed the Intro to UI/UX course. It felt a little weird not going to class last Saturday after doing it for six weeks, but I will say it was nice to sleep in a bit.

2) I went a little too far with the final project. Classmates of mine completed three screens of a high-fidelity prototype and I ended up doing much more than that. You’ll see this in an upcoming post.

User Personas - Green Thumb 2019

Taking a break from our not so regularly scheduled programming to pop in with this post.

A few weeks ago I started taking a course that I have wanted to take for the last year. It’s an introductory course to UI/UX. I’m not only learning a lot and noticing that what I have learned on my own over the last year and a half is clicking, but I’m really enjoying it.
