r/trinkets

This is my mum’s trinkets. Some I’ve given away as gifts some I’ve found in other boxes and put it in this box. I’ll split it into 2 to 3 parts hope you enjoy!

I snagged this absolute BEAUTY off the side of the road today. This is the shelf of my dreams! But now suddenly I can’t figure out how to decorate it LOL.

WHAT should I put on it?!? I'm definitely going to put a Sonny Angel on one of the smaller spots, but l'd love some ideas for the other sections

I found this yesterday after walking around and finding nothing for a while :0
I rearranged some trinkets and some old polymer clay charms that I had made when I was younger (most things with eyepins) and spent a while just filling each of the 100 spaces while drinking I had a BLAST.

all pics are mine! dare I say I may be a professional trinket collector… (*≧∀≦*)

A few years ago right after I moved 2,000 some miles away from home, I designed, cut, sanded, and surfaced this alone in my living room (didn’t have a workshop then lol) and have ever since been trying to fill the shapes as best as I can. Ive still got some spaces to fill and visually bulk up, but it’s been fun adding enamel pins and other accessories into it and someday I might paint it a different color.

My grandma had a knickknack shelf when I was young and I made this in her honor- she passed away 8 years ago today. ❤️ This has turned into my favorite piece of self expression :) each piece has a tale.

I’ve been collecting the little books from some mini brands and other places. Turning it into a large mini library 🥰 the random little mermaid is from my niece insisting it to be added 😆

Almost all of the trinket boxes have their corresponding trinkets.

Hi friends! Here’s the first I Spy page I ever made using found objects. These all came from fleas, rummages, thrifts, second hand sales of all kinds, items gifted and hand crafted!

I’ve had them since the 90’s, they were still in my childhood bedroom. The house has been demolished last month. I can’t face that reality yet.

My daughter had this under something heavy and it didn’t break, seems like it melted the head? It’s from Italy and it was just in her room so no extreme temperatures. Can anyone explain why this happened?
