Utilize Dingbats
Dingbats are fun digital additions to any page. Heather Melzer used floral dingbats on her layout to create a flowing border. Organize your dingbats to make them easier to find by following these steps:
1. Open a blank document in your word-processing program and type each dingbat character in a text box.
2. Add another text box below each dingbat with the matching letter of the alphabet. Resize to fill your entire page and save the document with the dingbat font’s name.
3. Do this for each of your dingbat fonts and save them on your hard drive in a folder titled Dingbats.
4. Print the document or simply store a digital version that’s close at hand.
