Use these hand lettering quotes when you come up against a creative roadblock. These quotes will help you practice lettering, give you ideas for new projects, and allow you to break through your creative blocks.
I love hand lettering but there are SO.MANY.TIMES when I sit down to letter and I have no idea what to put on the page.
Can you relate?
If you said yes, then this post is definitely for you! I’m always looking for fun new phrases to letter. I keep a running list in the Notes app on my phone (along with every other list that drives my life). I challenged myself to come up with 25 lettering quotes that you can practice when the inspiration just isn’t flowing and I think I found some pretty good ones. If you’re Type A like me and like everything printed out so you can file it neatly in a labeled binder…be sure to scroll on down to the bottom to pick up a printable copy of the 25 lettering quotes by subscribing to my email list.
