I picked up a handbook on letter writing (and other correspondence).
Not only did I love the typeface, but the ficticious names used as
examples really tickled me, too. I cut out a few of my favorites.
Some were just funny:
Others would make great character names, don't you think? Maybe for
those doll sculpts I plan on making some day...
Or maybe I'll use a few in collages. And stuff. ^_^
Anyone else out thrift shopping? Hope you find something good!

I love to thrift shop. I buy 99.9% of my clothes at thrift stores. I've had to not stop at any for awhile (budget budget) . I'm saving up for next month. The Sun City near me is having their big yard sale. I can't get there until closer to the end but isn't that when you get rock bottom prices? I can't wait!!
This is just too funny Alisa! I love Mrs. Fiddlehead and Mrs. Antiquark! I wonder where gals like that would live? :-)
Too cute!! I love all the "character names!"
Take care~
haha what wonderful names! I too am intrigued with fonts. I'm not a pack rack but some things you just have to keep: I still have my huge red cover book from college, Type and Lettering by Longyear.
Alisa...these are very funny! You will have so much fun working with them! ;)
Hi Alisa.
I've tagged you as one of my favorite blogs. If you would like to play, just go to my blog and answer the same questions and link to your 8 favorite blogs on your site. It's been a fun way to learn about some of the people you follow or who follow you.
I think in my next life I will be Dixie Nasturtium. It sounds posh, but not too...
