To create story highlights that look just like ours, use the Playlist Script Font in Canva – it is a free font in canva.
We used size font 97.5 and it works perfectly for Story Highlights.
Write the topic of your highlight in the centre of the box.
We used a classic black & white theme but you can get fancy and use different colours if you wish.

Download your finished product and upload it to your Instagram stories. Unfortunately, the cover images need to be in your stories.
From there, place the story cover within the relevant highlight.
