Our Studio
We believe in making life noteworthy!
At Curio Press, we design, print and handcraft all our paper goods in our small, St. Louis, Missouri studio. All our quality handmade paper goods are customized and made-to-order.
About Curio Press
Female Owned & Powered
Curio Press is a handmade, locally-sourced, family business, operated by a team of amazing women. We always strive to maintain a high level of quality with affordable prices – because everyone should have access to beautiful paper goods without sacrificing budget.
We are here to help you not only establish connections through the wonderfully personal medium of handwritten notes, but also to bring you joy and reflect your own personal style.
NoteWorthy
Making life noteworthy means living your best life by creating memories, serving your community, and surrounding yourself with people, things, and an environment that nurtures your soul.
We know you have a lot going on and understand how challenging it can be to juggle acknowledging life’s moments, remaining organized, and staying connected to your people and community. That’s where Curio Press comes in to help make it easy!
quality at every step
papers
Our stationery is printed using Mohawk Premium Papers in an eggshell, matte finish – meaning no ink bleed when writing notes . We buy direct from the mill to keep our footprint low!!
printing
Everything is printed in-house (that’s right – no outsourcing!) on a professional, digital press with archival inks that produce clean crisp lines and rich consistent colors.
personal
Keeping everything in-house means we have control over all the steps! We check your order several times during production before it ships so you can relax knowing your order is in good hands – ours!
our process
Digital prep
Everything starts online. Orders come through one of our online platforms, we read and review the order, then transfer your personalization details to the selected design – making tiny adjustments to make sure everything looks just right.
printing & finishing
We own or lease all our own printing, cutting and finishing equipment. Once orders are printed, they are cut down / folded / glued and cut some more, before being hand sorted and quality checked.
PACKING & SHIPPING
Finished cards, envelopes and notepads are packaged for shipment, carefully packed and shipped directly to you so you focus on everything else on your list!
