    Your grumpy postmaster: Take him some cookies and tell him thank you and that you appreciate him! Smile sweetly. It'll knock his socks off! Yes, I know it's the opposite of what he deserves, but it just may touch his humanity. You are a sweetheart and I so enjoy your crafting and chatting. I learn so much. TFS🤗

    Your postman is a grumpy jerk! I am so glad you stood up to him. Even if you feel a little bad for it. This us your work. You have a busy day and I'm sure you go when you take your daughter to school. Ask him if he would prefer you to come in before his lunch or when he is trying to close. He'll wise up!
    Oh Rachel, those old pieces are divine. Yes! We should make some dance card folders complete with pencil holders... how fun!

    Oh my goodness, your words made me fell full of happiness and even a bit emotional Rachel. I was enjoying your videos while I worked today and instantly was overjoyed by your kindness and truly sweet soul when this came up! I cannot wait to create another darling parcel for you my beautiful friend! Thank you so much for not only sharing but for being a constant inspiration in this community ❤️

    I love that you are like the rest of us, with your fan-girl moments. Those washi sold so quickly, I’ll need to wait for the second or third printing I think. Amity Bloom’s romantic colours and designs, and clean lines are so refreshing in the paper world with its tendency to sepia tones and grunge. Love the little treasures you found, they are so precious. Please keep sharing, I for one am excited to see all these examples of old textiles.

The lovely writings are worth every penny I spend on an order and I thank you sincerely. You have given me a look into the past I would never of had into my hands. I could go on and on if the many things I would of never known the joy of if not for you.

    Hi Rachel! Loving your ideas book! It’s a great size too. Will hold many ideas! Sorry you had another yuck day at the postal office! It bothers you so much and hurts you because you would never treat someone that way so it’s hard for you to understand why someone would do it to you. Because you are a kind and decent person. You just keep being you! 💕💖Hugs!

    Hi Rachel! Congratulations on becoming a Bloom Tape Sister!!!! 💐 You have many inspiring peices! I also keep an 'Ideas Journal', I have 2 of them, one is similar to yours in the video, where I keep different tags or envelopes etc. & the 2nd is a book full of different types of page folds.... as you mentioned, it's nearly impossible to remember every idea we've ever created!! I'm a new subscriber & can't wait to dig into your Playlist 😊 Btw, the fish story had me laughing so hard, some people are just silly, like you said, it's paper!! Lol I also loved seeing all of the antique peices at the end! I hope you have a beautiful day!!!! 🌻

    Hugs Rachel. Just know that your postman’s issue is his problem. Try not to take to heart. It seems to me that some people are never happy regardless of how much we attempt to cater to them. It’s too bad you aren’t able to mail online. In the US we have that option. I have been sewing handbags recently but you’ve given me the desire to begin making junk journals again. I got the digital kit with your hand painted bits in it and am excited to begin using it!

    Oh Rachel, i just love your work and find your ideas very inspiring. I love hear you chatter.
    Something have been on my mind for a long time, though.
    I find it incredibly that you should have to apologize for how you position a fish og cut the tale of a bird etc. What you put out in your videos are in my mind free and generous gifts for us all to enjoy. It’s you expressing you and if we don’t like it, we can stop watching. We shouldn’t try to change you and again, you shouldn’t have to monitor yourself, in my opinion.
    So from me, Please keep doing what you do and be proud of your self. ❤️

    Hai fatto benissimo a comunicare decisamente che lui DEVE fare il suo lavoro. Altrimenti sarebbe il caso che se ne cerchi un‘altro 😎
    Anche se sono italiana (ma vivo in Germania) devo ammettere che alcuni comportamenti in Italia sono davvero strani e poco ‚customer friendly’!!
    In vacanza in Italia spesso mi ritrovo a scuotere la testa o dover dire a cameriere/alberghiere che così non va trattato un cliente…

I also agree with what Nancy Norris said about thanking your grumpy post master… I’d go as far as gushing about how he does his job so much better than anyone else and how much of a pain it must be to have to do all of the other things that he has been burdened with (the banking things, etc.). I find that very odd as our post offices in Canada do not do all of those other things… they mail letters and parcels!!! I don’t know, but it would be nice if you could somehow reach his humanity… it must be somewhere deep inside him…???? Or not… lol!!! 😌😇😉🤷🏼‍♀️🇨🇦🫂😔. Oh yes, and all I could find on Amity Bloom were digitals… she also has physical items for sale? Interesting… I shall have to keep watching out for things…
