How to type those cute symbols

Blog Sisters presents one of those nifty tips that you always wondered about and never knew the answer.

Whether you're a wife smitten with her husband or a teenager bitten by the love bug, or a copywriter, if you want to know how to type those cute symbols (from keyboard) in an email or for writing a magazine article, here is your cheat sheet!

This should work in any Windows word processor, text editor, browser or email client. 1. Make sure your keyboard is in NumLock mode. 2. Hold down the ALT key and enter the number on the numeric keypad. (Note that many laptops have a blue FN key that changes a set of keys, also with blue numbers on them and usually in the 7-8-9-U-I-O area, into a numeric keypad.)
