Its been a while since I shared any photos of my cabinet of curiosities! Although I’ve shared photos of my living room in this apartment, I haven’t even taken any specifically of my curiosities. These last few weeks I’ve been on a spring cleaning kick so when I dusted everything off here and rearranged I knew it was time to get some updated photos. (That living room post definitely needs
I’m essentially at the point where I have so much stuff in my collection of weird stuff (skulls, taxidermy, misc bones, medical models, etc) that I have my own mini museum. I even have a good portion of stuff stored away because there simply isn’t room in this apartment to display it. My dream home definitely includes a room with tons and tons of shelves that can be used to show off my oddities.
Even though I live with these things and see them literally every single day, seeing them like this gets me excited about them all over again!
Sources – The cabinet is a lucky auction find. It cost a whopping ten dollars. Most items were found at auctions, estate sales, random websites across the internet, the trash (seriously…), and sometimes folks are even nice enough to send me things that would fit in my collection perfectly.
I’ve compiled more related finds here if you’re in the market for some oddities of your own.

I love this collection so much. And I love how you refer to it as your cabinet of curiosities! You need an old-timey carnival poster with that on it.
Your collection is super awesome! It always bums me out when people are weirded out by this kind of stuff, but more for me I quess. My mom got me a life size skeleton for christmas and I was happy crying while other people were just like “why would you ask for that”.
You know I’m always insanely jealous of this collection! Can’t wait to visit your museum someday 😉
I enjoy curiosities! All the teeth items freak me out but I also kind of like them?
I just attended my second oddities expo and I brought home a taxidermy duck with a cowboy hat too! It also sits on the same shelf (in my bedroom). So funny!
Haha! Great minds…
I love all your interesting collections 🙂 It’s like a mini museum!
Thanks, Sarah! 🙂
