RAoC Spring & Summer 2023

I have a confession to make!

-LaLa

I’m a hoarder of postcards 🙃 Still

My desk, usually my happy place is becoming overrun with beautiful, wonderful, lovely, POSTCARDS!
How do we keep all these postcards in check between the arrivals, the departures, the unused new ones to send, the old vintage finds from the flea market, and the extras that get to find new homes in the shop? I was wanting to build a collection base to try to wrap my head around organizing these cards while enjoying the exchanges. I have TOO MANY!

  • Curious how others are managing their collections?
  • Do you have them organized?
  • Or are they just in a box somewhere?
  • How many do you estimate that you have currently around your personal space?
  • Or in close storage?
  • What is your solution to keep them under control?

It is becoming overwhelming to try and keep up with each little detail of everything. I was hoping someone might write & give me some clues as to how you manage & organize your collection. Any tips would help.
Please before I toss up my hands and give up 🥹


These are some from the last month still sitting here waiting for stories to be told about them. It’s been so long, this ol lady forgot the history. There has to be a better way of keeping these in order. I still have video from openings and findings from last year or the year before, just silently showing postcards. It needs editing and voice track. I’m feeling a failure at this documenting of postcard heaven palace. But what else can I do? I am drowning, and I haven’t even started building my lil happy hobby empire.

These postcards to me are works of art, love, time, consideration and are ALWAYS appreciated. They are a treasure to me. Thank you so much! 😍
