Notes Widget Wrapper wraps your widget in a “sticky note” style box and displays the text in a hand writing style. Although this plugin may work with numerous widgets, it has been developed with the intended use of applying a “sticky note” style to custom HTML content. The built in “Text” and “Custom HTML” WordPress widgets work great with Notes Widget Wrapper.
