Designed by Missy Meyer, Candlepin is a monograms and hand show font style released by Missy Meyer.

Monograms are cool, but often they can be a bit too official. Too fancy. Dare I say it? A bit stuffy. I wanted to create a monogram font style that was a little lighter-hearted and enjoyable, and Candlepin was the result!

The typeface file consists of two sets of uppercase: larger (uppercase A-Z) and smaller sized (lowercase a-z), in addition to two sets of numbers: larger (0-9) and smaller (shift + 0-9). There are also 20 frame and graphic alternatives mapped to every single other piece of puncutation I might discover on the keyboard!

Creating a monogram is as easy as: [aBc—— Just type the punctuation for the frame you desire, then three letters in lowercase, uppercase, and lowercase. Boom, you have a cool and funky monogram, excellent for 1,001 home uses!

( And never ever fear—— I've included a PDF guide with a chart that reveals you every frame and graphic choice, and which punctuation characters to enter to get them!)

.

Monograms aside, Candlepin also acts as two complete usable monospace alphabets. Require your letters to stack nicely vertically, but you're bored with those typewriter-style font styles? Desire a little enjoyable in your spreadsheets? Making an enjoyable word-search puzzle? Candlepin can do it all.:)
