Did you know you can use **some** CSS rules in GTK?
Lets create a new `style.css` file that we can use to apply properties to our new label:
```css
/* Let's create a title class */
.title {
font-size: 25px;
font-weight: bold;
}
```
Then, we need to load the CSS file in our application; to achieve this, we need a [CssProvider](https://docs.gtk.org/gtk4/class.CssProvider.html).
```python
# first, we need to add Gdk to our imports
from gi.repository import Gtk, Gdk
css_provider = Gtk.CssProvider()
css_provider.load_from_file('style.css')
Gtk.StyleContext.add_provider_for_display(Gdk.Display.get_default(), css_provider, Gtk.STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIORITY_APPLICATION)
```
Finally, we can add the `title` class to our `label`
```python
self.label.set_css_classes(['title'])
