A shrine of sorts on a bookshelf in my home office. In the center is The Parking Fairy, made for me by Lorraine. Scattered about are some tarot decks, including The Science Tarot. On the left is a WW2 Armed Services booklet on magic, The Art of Illusion, plus a expired roll of Fomapan 35mm b/w film and a clone of Dolly the Sheep. On the right are two vacuum tubes, a folding rule that belonged to my grandfather, and a Stirling engine made by my dad after he retired.

Sharp eyes. Those are steel pieces made "in the style of" carved coins, a tramp art sorta thing, carved with a CNC rig, if I remember correctly, somebody's Kickstarter project that I backed. I'll see if I can get some decent closeups.

I will enjoy following along here! I have been living in a tiny house on wheels for a little over 3 years, have sized down my life quite a bit, and no longer have any collections. Although...... I do have a drawer full of tea, and a drawer full of herbs/spices, and a small shelf with several mugs, so maybe I do have a couple collections. :thinking:

A tiny house! Have watched a lot of YouTube on tiny homes.
That‘s a really cool way to live.

Those sound like pretty important collections to me! Bring ‘em on!
 
I'm not sure whether this counts as a collection or not, but it's something I've been working on for a while. Right now, the pieces are held in place with some very grippy double-stick tape, but that makes them difficult to replace (and usually damages the back of the mount), and what I really want is a rotating collection. I've been searching for a way to create some kind of magnetic mount. I have some magnetic thumbtack-like bits, but they don't work well through the thickness of the mat board framing. Next I'm going to try some magnetic tape on the doors and wall (the stickum pulls off easily) combined with metal tape on the back of the prints.

Absolutely Ted. That’s a great organized collection. All your own work? They look well placed / 5 stars.

Those and many more. I enjoy printing, so I have way more prints available than I have wall space to hang them (especially since they have to compete for space with a bunch of Japanese and Chinese block prints that Lorraine has collected).
