Did you know that you can add lots of symbols and pictures to your website using your existing font? They’re known as Unicode characters. It’s as simple as knowing a few bits of code. For example typing ❤ will give you ❤. If you’re using WordPress to type a blog post or content for a page, just click over to the Text editor (top right of the content box), type the ❤ code and click back to Visual editor. Below is a quick cheatsheet of some useful unicode characters, there are lots more here: http://unicode-table.com/en/#control-character including domino tiles, playing cards, numbers with borders around them, gobs of icons and non-english letters.
