Well, Hello There!
I’m Melissa Gruntkosky, the brains and brawn behind the letterpress stationery and paper goods studio, Pressbound. I create handcrafted paper goods that in-spire tangible connections in a modern world, combining traditional printing like letterpress and woodblock with modern design and digital techniques. My work is fueled by folk art inspirations such as Polish paper-cuttings, russian nesting dolls, and vintage embroidery while combining a love of texture, geo-metrical patterns, and retro color palettes. all of my work is produced by hand in a charming old mill building in Beverly, Massachusetts—a coastal new england city just north of Boston and next door to the historical city of Salem.

Matryoshka Greeting Cardswhen I was a little girl I used to play with a traditional red and yellow russian nesting doll at my grandmother’s house, taking it apart and putting it back to-gether over and over again. Since then I’ve been obsessed with matryoshkas. So I’m thrilled to launch this new line of letterpress greeting cards featuring ma-tryoshkas for various occasions. each a2 card is hand printed in my studio using an antique platen press on a beautiful egg-shell and eco-friendly bamboo paper and is packaged with a complimentary colored envelope. the holiday card is also available in box sets of six.
