Oh for the love of free fonts! Fonts can really make or break a design. Sometimes they can bring about inspiration to help the creativity flow in a website design project. I literally experienced such a situation this week, and actually lol'd for real when reading the description for Rancho. You can see it in action as a web font here. (Quick rush job for a press release, I still need to set up media queries for smaller screen resolutions on that one).
Most of these are available for quick & commercial use as a web font via the google web font library, but they can also be downloaded for desktop use.
I've also listed a few deals going on for non-free fonts. My newest font is Mishka by: Fenotype, but alas the sale is over on that one. They do still have a sale on Mishka and Barber together. I think my next purchase is going to be Skitch - (listed below). I love the cute hand drawn ornaments dingbat fonts in that set!

Lauren Said,
Yet again I am impressed by your wonderful eye for design and style. These fonts look quite lovely. I am fond of using Copse and Carolyna (the latter of which which I just discovered). I am digging the wiry hand-drawn types as well, they have a Tim Burton-esque feel (a totally awesome feel in other words XD) to me. Great post again.

Thanks Lauren! Hey I just realized after reading your comment - Carolyna words was available on Dafont! Ooh,she has an etsy shop too. I'm hooked, have found more frames.
I really need to discuss commercial use licensing tiers with you at some point, as I'd love to use Damask Dings. I've been drooling over them for 2 years now.
