Gold sticky note widget

What a gold sticky note widget shows

A sticky note widget holds a few words you need to see: a shopping list, a reminder, a phone number. It works best short, with a bold title and three or four lines.

Type the note straight into a Text layer, or keep notes in WidgetCraft's Tasks, notes & habits section and show them with the Saved notes list. Both are free, stay on the phone and need no permission.

How the gold style shapes it

Gold widgets pair deep black with warm metallic gold and ivory text. Thin gold rules, an elegant capital serif and lots of dark space make them look expensive.

• Text: Use spaced capitals in a classical serif for labels.

How to make a gold sticky note widget in WidgetCraft

1. Create a widget and open Canvas. Set the size to 200 × 200, the background to #0F0E0C and the corner radius to 14. Add a 1-point outline.
2. Add a Shape 52 × 16 at the top center in #D4AF37 at 75% opacity, like a strip of tape, and rotate it 2°.
3. Add a Text layer for the title at size 20 in #F3EAD3 using Cinzel.
4. Add a second Text layer for the note, one item per line, at size 15 with line spacing 1.7. To show notes you keep in the app instead, add Saved notes.
5. Add thin Shape rules under each line in #9C8F72 at 30% opacity for a ruled-paper look.
6. Add the gold ornament with Shape layers and move them below the other layers in Layers: a second hairline gold frame inset 7 points, with a small gold diamond on its top edge.
7. Tap Save, then Add to home screen and resize the widget on your launcher if needed.

Tips for gold sticky note widgets

• Use gold for lines and accents, ivory for text.
• Keep plenty of black space.
• Four short lines is the most a 2 × 2 note can hold at a readable size.
• Use line breaks rather than long sentences so the note scans at a glance.
• For a list you tick off, use a to-do widget instead.
• Do not use gold for long text; it reads poorly.
• Do not add a second bright color.
