Recent(ish) finds!

Sorry it’s been awhile folks, I’m a student and this is the time of year where everything is ramping up. I have some more posts queued tho ;)

sorry, this probably has been asked before but tips on finding cool stuff on floor?

In general, I take daily walks around my neighborhood, and I’m just always scanning the ground or taking my time to look closely. Once in a while I’ll find something in the middle of the sidewalk, but the main place I find things on the street are on the “outskirts” of things: under benches, along the edge of grass, in the gutter, in tree planters, in the corners of stairs. I keep an eye out for interesting shapes, colors, and shine that might indicate a cool object!

Checking out high traffic places like parks, beaches, areas where a lot of people sit or walk around is a good call. One of my main sources of finds is a walking/bike path that’s alongside a major road in my neighborhood.

my lovely mutual @collection-bundle has definitely answered similar questions if you’re looking for other perspectives!

Thanks for the ask! happy crow finding! ✨🐦‍⬛

Meticulous Flat Lays of Vintage Toys and Miniatures Celebrate the History of Play and Design

I love collecting shells & rocks as it will be the treasure I'll leave behind when I'm gone from this world—reminds me of Earth ⋆｡˚𖦹🐚₊ ⊹

Just visited Portland and over my 2 days here I found only one thing…

Where the FUCK are your trinkets Portland?!

hii i love your trinkets! can i ask how you clean the stuff you find?

hi anon! i assume this was meant for my side blog @shiny-eyed-corvid which i just realized didn’t have asks enabled oop the ask box should be open now!

but to answer your q: I usually soak the items in warm soapy water. Then I put on work gloves and scrub each item with an old toothbrush before rinsing in clean water. I also have a little pipette to squeeze water into hard to scrub places like inside beads and crevices. I’ll use rubbing alcohol too for objects that need it!

For things that can’t be submerged in water, I wipe with an alcohol wipe. Rusty metal gets an overnight soak in vinegar to remove rust before getting scrubbed and rinsed again. I usually hit the whole batch with a spray of disinfectant too just to be safe!

thanks for the ask! ✨🐦‍⬛
