No Right Way to Grieve

Most sympathy cards try to make grief smaller than it is. This one doesn’t. No Right Way to Grieve was designed for the moments when someone you care about has lost a parent, a partner, a friend, and nothing in the card aisle feels honest enough to send. The front message acknowledges what so many cards won’t: that grief is messy, nonlinear, and deeply personal. Allison’s hand lettering carries the words with a quiet steadiness that feels like sitting beside someone rather than talking at them. Each card is letterpress printed at our Greenville, SC studio on thick 100% cotton paper, one color at a time on an antique Heidelberg press. The impression is deep enough to feel with your fingertips. Blank inside, because there is no script for comforting someone through loss. Your handwritten words, however imperfect, will mean more than you think.
