Looking For Font Help

[kmmcrafts]

Daughter is getting married in September and they asked me to laser engrave a mirror similar to photos shown. I’m trying to find a nice font like the word “Love” in the mirror and or the other font in the other photo of an invitation sample. May be the same font and that would be okay as they are close. 
 

Anyone know this font or something similar. I’ve never messed with different fonts really and not even quite sure how to get them into my laser software. lol But at least finding something is a starting point. 

Sorry for the poor quality invite image as they took a picture of the computer screen which is never a good photo but it’s all they sent me. lol 

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Why do they want something so difficult to read? Had to ask?

The closest I have is "Autumn in November" which I think I got from dafont.

The ligature on the e is shorter but convert to text to path and play with the e you cand make it longer. See below top is regular and bottom is a quick stretch.

I'm not sure other than to say my daughter has always been into those fancy looking fonts. She used to come out in my shop and take my nice live edge boards and make signs out of them with paint markers doing free handed calligraphy.. she's one of the few younger generations that can actually write nice cursive and can actually read it, . I always tried to get her to do that stuff with my wood burning pens but she preferred the markers. I might have to make her write out what she wants engraved and put that into my software then just engrave her own writing of what she wants, LOL

Thank you Don, I'll look into this and also now remember that Dafont site.. maybe I can find something she'll like.. worst case is I'll have to have her write something and engrave it from her own font, lol

While at the DaFont site go to the "script" drop down menu and then select "Calligraphy", there a bunch of similar fonts there.

Oh boy, sooo many to choose from, LOL.. Thanks for making this harder than it should be..  Guess I just need to do some sort of quarter flip on these and choose one.

I like the idea of having her write something out.  Makes it very personal.

Thank you !! 

I think I'll get this font for future use.. I may not be doing this mirror now.. I just realized tonight after trying to fit the mirror in my laser that it's not going to fit.. Maybe they'll purchase a slightly smaller mirror and still have me do this but the current mirror they gave me to engrave is about 1 -1/2 inch too big to fit in the laser and also have passthrough doors on my laser but also won't fit through either of the passthrough doors, LOL... They did talk about this when they purchased the mirror that if it doesn't fit they'll have to buy some decals to make the text they want.

Make a mosaic of mirrors so it fits?

There is this font which I've used a bit, lovely melody. Also for free on dafont

How about using your laser to cut a mask from shelf liner and use etching chemicals on the mirror? You would have to get a good seal, but rolling the mask/stencil would get a better seal.

That way, you don't have to fit the entire mirror body in the chamber.

I used to do glass for a living.

The mask idea is also a way to tackle this project.

Also, after putting the mask onto the glass you might try sandblasting. Just make sure the edges are down tight and try to go straight on, not sideways so the grit gets under the mask.

I know there is a product available (here at least) that "frosted" the glass.  You could use the stencil and then just spray.

I learned something today, didn't know this product was available. Might be worth a try?

Rust-Oleum Specialty 11 oz. Frosted Glass Spray Paint is designed to add a semi-transparent coating to glass windows, mirrors and more. It is great for indoor applications and helps create the look of custom-etched glass when applied with stencils. The paint dries to the touch in just 5 minutes

From Home Depot website, $7

Hmm, that's interesting... I might have to look into this one. 

Looking like I won't be lasering this for sure.. they bought another mirror but  it's the larger than the original one.. I think they're planning to buy vinyl stickers so they can take them back off and use the mirror in their home once they're done with it for the wedding purpose.
