Typography is the heart of holiday design, bringing warmth and character to every project. A well-chosen font can capture the spirit of the season, whether you’re crafting Christmas cards, festive menus, or seasonal branding. Pair decorative serif or script fonts for headlines with clean sans-serif fonts for supporting text to keep your designs balanced. Adding classic holiday colours like red, green, gold, and silver can enhance the festive mood and create visual harmony. These fonts are perfect for projects ranging from invitations and gift tags to digital campaigns and beyond.
