A Full Gross of Vintage Glass Dice
zhlédnutí 463Před 4 měsíci
This perfectly wrapped bundle of a full gross (144) of vintage glass dice made in Germany came from an Instagram friend who runs The Swagman's Daughter. (theswagmansdaughter.com/) She has so many treasures, but these are my favorite. The weight of them, the color, and the sounds. I hope you enjoy!

I love that you had the perfect mask for the doll's head! Such creativity. Love it!
Thank you! I was so confused pleased when it fit!!
Really love this theme for a flatlay, and the stop motion totally amps it up a notch 🤩
Thank you! Glad you like it!
So good! I love it xx
Thank you so much!!
I've been collecting since I was 5 and I'm 62 now. It's an obsession and I have no idea why. I just love them. I have no idea why. I'm just loving them!!
You must have an amazing collection!
A happy song for happy collecting. Love this :)
Glad you enjoyed!!
Waoooo! Cuántos Miles de botones que yo tengo, que conseguido en los países que voy. Tengo los de bisabuela que ella cosía...me encantan los botones. También colecciono miniaturas.
Yes!! Buttons are the best!!
I absolutely adore your choice of storage for the trinkets!
Thank you! Storage is so important here at the museum!!
You are such a wonderful storyteller! Watching your videos is mesmerizing. I believe the love of miniatures is two things: first it’s nostalgia. Memories of childhood and our love of play. Secondly, I think it’s our chance to have so many of the things we love but maybe can’t afford or showcase if it were actual size. Anyway, keep telling us the stories of treasures you find!!!🥰
Thank you for the kind words! So glad you enjoyed! And yes!! Both of those are great reasons!!!
That was most enjoyable. Love the library card catalog cabinets. I have one but my husband keeps his old cassettes in them 😔
Glad you enjoyed! Library card catalogs are useful for so many things!!! (Though I loved them most when we still used them in libraries…)
This is amazing and really lovely film-making 💚💐 I would dearly love for the final composition to appear on screen for a bit longer to let us really take it in as a whole, finished piece. About 4-5 seconds wouldn’t be too long. Thanks! Looking forward to seeing more!
Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed!! I’ll add the finished piece at the end next time! And if you are Instagram, you can always head over there to see the final shot and close ups?!
your reverence shines through in each word. thank you for sharing this with us. this is an amazing endeavor <3
Thank you for following along!!!!
They're just so darn cute!!!!
Truth!!
Its a feeling i cant explain when i see miniature things. I love the miniture bathroom items , like medicine bottles and purfume bottles. It makes you feel all gooey inside 😊❤
I totally agree!
I do love all your bits and bobs where ever did you find all those lovely little things. I love miniatures and would be in heaven in your studio 💕💕💕💕
It’s been years of collecting! But I hope you’ll come visit our tiny museum someday and make your own Flatlay!!
Yes, I agree that miniatures are really darn 🥰 ❤cute
That’s all it takes!
Oh joy, where can I buy miniatures in the UK ❤❤ love the video ❤❤ thank you for sharing ❤❤
So glad you enjoyed!!!
I love antiques, dice and colored glass, so these are perfection. Those broken ones would make interesting and beautiful jewelry.
I love the broken ones too! So much character!
This is so beautiful and relaxing! So much time and care is dedicated to selecting just the right pieces...❤ I would have liked for the flatlay to stay on the screen longer though; those ending logos get smacked right over it!
So glad you enjoyed!!! And sorry about not spending longer on the final image! You can always visit out Instagram page (@office.of.collecting) to see the final image (and close ups!) Thanks so much for watching!
Oh my Lord! I have found heaven! This channel is amazing and makes me so happy. I feel like I have found a soulmate.I would love to visit your museum but live on the east coast on the Eastern Shore of Virginia and at 71 pretty I will never get to Ls Vegas. However I have thousands of tiny treasures and odd little trinkets much like you but not the space to display like you do. Hundreds of pieces of doll house furniture and accessories, buttons and dice, shells, pebbles and stones, old keys, miniature books, cracker jack premiums, glass and plastic swizzle sticks. and more and more. I have been wondering what I was going to do with lots of it as my nephew is not interested in most it, so I may start trying to donate some of it to you and your museum.
I am so glad you found us!! It does sound like we have a lot in common!! We love receiving donations and it seems like you collect just our type of treasures!!
Every piece of art you make is so beautiful and unique ❤.
Aw, thank you!!!
New subscriber! I have absolutely fallen in love with your studio. How beautiful! Thanks for sharing your lovely talent😊
Thank you so much!!! I hope someday you’ll be able to come visit! It’s even more magical in person!
Loved this! Thank you
So glad! Thanks for watching!!
Damnnn girl you got some trinkets
Ha ha! Truer words were never spoken!
I Enjoyed this video so much, especially the commentary..... "Anything is possible in Miniature" YES that part, bundled with the Precious Memories of Childhood, Nostalgia and Fantasy........ this was Great! Thank you for Sharing!
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed!!!
So amazing 👏 😊
Thank you! Cheers!
Thank you!
Thank you for watching!
Happy Spring! Thanks for the video. Love the little bunnies. ❤
They are the sweetest!!
This is such a wonderful art form. Your placement of each little treasure makes a beautiful collage. On the other hand, my anxiety level was super high watching you grasp each tiny item from the shelves. If it was me… yikes! ❤️
Thank you so much! Though I don't want to bring anxiety! Please don't worry!
Watching you touch all the lovely things and them put them away is so pleasing.
I am so glad you enjoy!!!
Wow--it's like a dream come true! Viva La Hoarder! Heehee! Love!!!!
Ha ha! Yes! Thank you!
A complete delight to watch. Calming, satisfying and exciting all at once. Those little plastic phones!? 😮
So glad you enjoyed!! And aren’t those phones just cutest?!?
I think I like some voice. I like silence once in awhile too, and the sounds of pouring items etc. But definitely voice. Keep making videos, whatever you do, I love them.
Thank you! And thanks for the input! Will likely do a mix moving forward!
Favorite is #1
Thank you!
I love how the dice make music.
Yes! Music is exactly the right word!!
I recognize the leather half moon shaped zipped box! The one inside the cigar box containing, for one, the soldier. It is meaningful to see it being unpacked. I unpack and repack it regularly, enjoying still the pure delight of my treasure box.
Ha ha! Yes! So glad you enjoy it!!
I also like the idea of a combo of voice over and silence. Silence when pouring items in to boxes, with the lovely rattling sounds. :D Another wonderful video.
Thank you! Noted!!
I was a little concerned when you opened the box and the tablecloths came out. I thought, 'Oh, no. There are no miniatures.' (Glad to know they were from a family member and had significance to you.) I was proven wrong, thankfully -- yes, there were miniatures. I provided my own voice-over because I recognized quite a few of those tiny treasures. Actually, I wouldn't mind if you did a combination of voice-over and silence.
Ha ha! Thank you! I love the idea of you adding your own!! A mix is a good idea!
Now this is my idea of meditation! Watching this totally chilled me out! Thank you! 💕
I'm so glad to hear it!!
I love the details in miniatures. I love creating something I’ve always wanted but couldn’t afford in real life. I love that after I clean up the mountains of supplies I needed there’s just this tiny example of my hard work. I love the look on someone’s face when they hold something in their hand and ask how did you do it? I love that I can create and decorate a fantasy then create another in the same space.
Yes!! Those are all great answers and little bits of magic in themselves! Thanks for sharing.
So interesting and calming to watch. Big collecter myself with miniatures
Wonderful!! So glad you enjoyed!! Be sure to check out video about miniatures!
This was wonderful, thank you for making the longer version
Glad you enjoyed it!
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
So glad you enjoyed!!
Oh my word. When you started to arrange in rows, by color... 😍
So glad you enjoyed!!
After seeing them on a light box….I’m visualizing them in a mosaic stained glass piece hanging in a window💙♥️💜💛💚
Ooooo! That would be so wonderful!!!
This ASMR is delightful
So glad you enjoyed!!!!
Please post the full video at normal speed and full sound - it is absolutely divine!
If you insist!! I’ll post this week!
Just posted a full length version!!
You should definitely post the full video not sped up with sound
Ha ha! If you want, but it would be loooooong!
Just posted the full length version!
I love glass everything. These were exceptionally beautiful. Sad that some had been damaged over the years....but I knew that you would be sorting and everything would be fine when they were put in their new home. Lovely ASMR!
Thank you!!! So glad you enjoyed!!!
Thanks so much!! Love them.
So glad!
Thank you.
So glad you enjoyed!!
