HELLO!
26 TERMS + CONDITIONS
I started making cards in 2011 as a way to reflect on and honor the lives we actually lead, versus the ones we think we should. Kwohtations is essentially my life in greeting cards, in which I offer up my own truths about navigating love and loss, (re)defining family and success, and figuring out what it means to show up for myself and others. I believe that humor is critical to savoring the good times and surviving the hard. My goal is to create products that encourage us to embrace the diversity, complexity, and kinship in our lived experiences. My hope is that anyone can recognize some of themselves in Kwohtations, and feel a bit more seen, more connected, and less alone. Thank you, thank you for making this small business possible!
JANINE KWOH OWNER + DESIGNER
MADE WITH LOVE, ELBOW GREASE, AND A LOT OF COFFEE | All of our letterpress stationery is printed one-at-a-time by yours truly on an antique printing press in Brooklyn, NY, and many designs are also painted in by hand. Screenprinted and flat printed products are produced by our partner businesses in the USA.

@KWOHTATIONS
GREETING CARDS ALL CARD DESIGNS START OUT AS HAND-DRAWN ILLUSTRATIONS, AND THEN ARE LETTERPRESS PRINTED AND HAND-PAINTED TO ENSURE THAT EACH ONE IS ONE-OF-A-KIND. LIKE YOU.
REPRESENTATION MATTERS. To reflect the beauty in our diversity, many of our greeting card designs come with a variety of character options (below). Character options available for each design are included under individual product listings. Orders typically include a mix of characters, but we are happy to customize - please include any character specifications in your order. Note: Individual designs refer to the text on each card, regardless of the featured character. For example, a “Yay You Were Born” card with Character #1 and another with Character #2 would count as two cards of the same design.
