FAQ

 

SHIPPING

WHEN WILL MY ORDER SHIP? Orders generally ship within  5 - 7 business days (often sooner). Thank you for your patience! Each card is handmade, packed, and shipped by one real, fallible, over-caffeinated human working as fast as she can (hi!).

HOW DO ORDERS SHIP? Orders ship via USPS Ground Advantage or UPS Ground, depending on destination and weight.

HOW LONG DOES SHIPPING TAKE? All packages ship from Brooklyn, NY. Packages sent within the U.S. via USPS Ground Advantage are generally delivered within 2-5 business days, and UPS packages are generally delivered within 1-5 business days. However, USPS and UPS do not guarantee delivery within a certain time frame.

CAN I TRACK MY ORDER?  You will receive a tracking number for all packages once your order ships, unless you choose the untracked option.

MISSING OR UNDELIVERED PACKAGES

Kwohtations is not responsible for lost, stolen, or otherwise undeliverable packages. We will work with you to the best of our ability to ensure your package is delivered without issue. It is the customer’s responsibility to provide accurate and complete shipping information, including floor, suite, or apartment numbers where applicable. Once an item is shipped out, we unfortunately have no additional way to track your package other than using the tracking number and contacting USPS. If you are having a difficult time locating your package, please contact your local post office. Kwohtations is not responsible for any packages lost by the carrier.  

WHERE AND HOW ARE THE GREETING CARDS MADE?

All of the greeting cards are letterpress printed by yours truly at rented presses in Brooklyn, NY. Letterpress is a relief-printing technique, where raised type or images are inked and then pressed into paper, creating a debossed impression. Each piece of paper is carefully hand-fed one at a time into the printing press, to create a unique piece of artwork. 

We are proudly partnered with other small businesses in the USA to screen print and digitally print Kwohtations art prints, tote bags, and other gifts. 

I LIKE THIS CARD, BUT CAN YOU CHANGE A WORD HERE OR THERE?

Unfortunately, given that the cards are letterpress printed using custom polymer plates, we don’t offer customizations for singular items. 

ARE ALL OF THE ILLUSTRATIONS AND WORDS YOUR OWN?

Yes! All of the designs are based on my original hand drawn illustrations drawn with a paper and pencil (and sometimes carved out of a linoleum block), and then digitized and further refined on the computer.  

CAN YOU MAKE A CUSTOM ILLUSTRATION FOR ME?

Perhaps!  I do take on some custom graphic design and letterpress printing projects, depending on capacity. Email me at info [at] kwohtations.com.
