Our Story

Matthew Winheld, founder of Sweet & Snarky with wife Elizabeth,

 
Every day, we all get hundreds of emails, texts, status updates, tweets, etc. But how often do you get something cool and wickedly hilarious in the mail? You know, something other than bills and catalogs? We're willing to bet it's not often enough. And we think that's just wrong.

We are SWEET & SNARKY goods, purveyors of fine snark located in Longmont, Colorado. (Yes, we were priced out of Boulder.)

We're a husband-and-wife, mom-and-pop kind of operation who started making paper products back in 2006 when we designed our own wedding invitations. Matthew's the mad creative genius, Elizabeth's the business brains, and our goods are occasionally sold by our 9 and 13-year-old kids. Hopefully they aren't scarred for life!

We do all our own stunts. i.e. We come up with all the random concepts you'll find here, obsess over the quirky language and draw all psychotic, anthropomorphized cartoon pillows and mounds of poo ourselves. Our parents are so proud.

All that to say, we make seriously hilarious greeting cards, plus funny home decor and snarky gifts. Our products are made in the U.S.A. in small batches, using eco-friendly materials.

Is the work immature? Often.

Snarky? Well yeah, that one's in our name.

Profane? Ya know, sometimes it just doesn't work without an F*bomb.

Intentionally mean spirited? Nope - that's not interesting to us.

Our sincere intent is to use humor as a profound expression of love. After all - as the saying goes, "If you weren't laughing, you'd be crying" (never more true than today).

And once in a while, we just make a straight up sappy, sweet card, hence the name SWEET & SNARKY.

Thanks for visiting!
Matthew and Elizabeth
