I love Real Simple’s interpretation – makes me want to run to an antique shop and find lots of small quirky stuff to put under glass!

Oh, this could be fun. I have a ton of weird stuff that might actually look cool if displayed like this.

Agreed, about Harry Potter’s Department of Mysteries.

So this is really nerdy of me…. the first photo instantly made me think of Harry Potter’s Department of Mysteries.

Love the bell jars too…

I like to do that with my old black china cabinet near Halloween, but I am working on making a look like that for year round use by collecting some bones and such. It’s slow going though.

So beautiful! I love curiosity cabinets (of course, I also love creepy things like animal skeletons and bugs – it’s my scientific side showing through).

I love the first coral cabinet, because the cabinet itself is also very beautiful. It is always nice when the containers are part of the design element. Thank you for sharing!
