Cabinets of Curiosities have always fascinated me. Their existence and history tell a lot about humanity, but owning one yourself can be really quite expensive. So, let's make a Cabinet of Curiosities of our own... on a budget!

What an awesome find I love cabinets of curiosities! Have you ever heard of Spar Cabinets? When miners would find interesting minerals and crystals underground, they'd bring them home and glue all of them into small cabinets like this then they would place a candle inside so the light would reflect off of all the crystals!💜

Great score on the cabinet! It's nice to gather things you already have. That way your cabinet contents have meaning.

You could put some LED strip lighting inside the cabinet so you can see the contents at night!

I feel like drying the plants would be a better option, I am not sure how they wouldn't spoil after some time fermented in the water. :)

@anemonenova8694 10 ай бұрын

Yes I definitely agree! The plants are now very very dead indeed... certainly a learning point haha!

@@anemonenova8694 Clear high proof alcohol is what many old specimens are in. Rubbing alcohol is also a good option. Some are in Formaldehyde but that's far more toxic and hard to get ahold of these days. Resin is another modern option for the wet look.

If it had been a smokers cabinet you'd smell it, and you'd need special cleaners to make it go away, if it ever did actually go away without refinishing or a couple of clear coats, but just old dusty stuff can have a dirty brown film
