Have just got 4 display cabinets with are about 30cm tall by 15cm wide.
Looking for inspiration to what to put in them.

Obviously I'm going to get suggestions of dildos and sex toys....

Would be more interested in some design classics.
My thoughts of cambells soup cans didn't go down to well.

Here is a quick photo so you can see the style.

A dog taking a poop is a good start.

but for case like that, I reckon some taxidermy. But something different like a squirrel riding an otter or this

I have no idea what the rest of your place is like, but, taxidermy is getting to be a bit passé. Are you going for elegant or quirky? How about a colllection of skulls, or poison bottles, or odd scientific instruments.

I have a feeling this may be the WHOCT for this decade.

Maybe a Terminator arm would look cool.

Why buy them if nothing to put in ? Collections normally start the other way round smile

How about some classic stop watches ? Saw a nice collection recently.

Have you sought professional help. You are clearly a danger to your family.
I've no way of knowing if you're mad or not but I've been accused of it so I'm throwing it around to confuse the issue before I get locked up

Directed at GTIDriver but you could be crazy too. You'll be the last to know apparently.

Why for myself?

Oldandslow quoted my post but was referring to gtidriver's post.

I made a quip about gtidriver's knives being glued to the shelves because the picture was on it's side - and the fact that Oldandslow quoted gtidriver's post led me to believe he had missed the point.

I don't need to explain any more surely?
