Letters from Inside

[cyrano]

The USPS has no little rubber stamp that says "Do not leave outside in the rain or actually in a puddle for god's sake what are you thinking". So I will have to settle for "Do not fold".

Yes, but if you cover the entire outside of the envelope with packing tape, then the contents MAY be able to sit in the rain. :)

(I once shipped a framed cross-stitch to a girl, who found it on her porch, fully in the rain. I had used so much tape that everything inside was just fine. :) )

Evidence points to you being pretty awesome. Wanna play in my Weird West game?

It's probably far too late, but I was going to suggest that you put a piece of firm cardboard behind the item you were shipping.

For the other one, my plan involves a lot of bubble wrap. I don't want the recipient to open it and find glass shards.

I'm hoping that cardstock + insurance + 'needs signature' will help.

I'm a fan of putting things in ziplocks inside their boxes. But asking for the help of the post office probably wouldn't have occurred to me...
