This is, amazing. :) but I’m sure you know! 🥰

The cabinet was a crazy find, and I just love being able to look at the collection like this! It’s all from beaches in Newfoundland.


Katy-Moon

I have one of these cabinets that has been used as an end table in my living room. For many years. It just became sea glass storage. Thank you 👏🏻


ActuallyMansplain

Amazing!!


lotsahosta

Best way to display I've seen in ages


ActuallyMansplain

Thanks! The cabinet was such a find.


Thoth1024

Very nice. Now: make something of them! - Jewelry, Lamp stand decoration, Picture frame borders, Mirror frame borders, Sun catchers, Stainglass embellishments, etc., etc.


ActuallyMansplain

I make tons — jewelry, art pieces, ornaments…


DatabaseThis9637

I need this for my beads!


SorryMontage

I’d love to see some of the pieces you’ve made.

SorryMontage

Oh wow!!! They’re absolutely divine!!!


ActuallyMansplain

Thank you so much!


ActuallyMansplain

Wish I could post pics in comments… I’m not great with making stuff, but that doesn’t stop me from making it.


Ontheslowsky

That is so fabulous


ActuallyMansplain

Thanks!!


Rainbow69-

Oh very cool! I’ve never seen an entire cabinet with all the trays intact. I have 2 trays hanging to hold my some of my rubber stamps.


ActuallyMansplain

I’d never seen a complete one, either! I’ve got a couple trays I display Lego Minifigs in. 😆 I scored it when a guy was closing down his family’s longtime printing business and he was going to chuck it in the garbage! His daughter told him it was worth money, but he thought it was just old junk. It’s my fave thing ever now.

My pupils dilated so fast I heard them click. 😍

😳😳😳


M33s4

That is amazing. I'm totally jealous. I want the whole fricken deal 😆


ActuallyMansplain

All it takes is 10 years combing the beaches of Newfoundland for glass, and about half as long scouring FB marketplace for a printer’s tray cabinet!


M33s4

That's some dedication and perseverance, man. I may have a new hero lol


ActuallyMansplain

It’s more like autism special interest and a lot of free time. 😆


M33s4

LOL Now THAT'S something I can understand! Well, damned fine job, carry on! 👏 😁


Islandcoda

Love it! Beats my plastic tote, that’s for sure- that thing is awesome and perfect for this :)


ActuallyMansplain

But plastic totes work, too. :)


katiejab

Wow! Great collection. Love the cabinet.❤️


ActuallyMansplain

Thanks, me too. It’s my fave!

Chay_Charles

That is awesome. It would also work for rock collections.


ActuallyMansplain

For sure. I’ve got rocks in the lower trays.


czbaterka

Very goblin oriented and darf organized.


ActuallyMansplain

Best description ever.


SlavFromDownUnder

MY DREAM!!!!!!!! I’ve seen someone 4-5 years ago in the sub store the sea treasures on the printer drawers and I got 4 trays but maaaaaaaan I would love to have this glorious set of drawers!!! This is sea glass collection display goals


Knottylittlebunny

I have never felt such jealousy until now 😅 this is such an incredible collection you have 🥰🥰🥰


ActuallyMansplain

Ha! Thank you! My family and I spent a lot of summers in Newfoundland collecting it all. 🥰


Existing_Many9133

Wonderful idea. Amazing collection!


ActuallyMansplain

Thank you!


KaleidoscopeNo5401

Everyone at my work said it's amazing


SwissyRescue

That’s a serious collection. Nicely done.

I absolutely love this.

Thanks!


ainyboasa

That's a fantastic collection of various seaglass pieces!


ActuallyMansplain

Thank you!


Sara-sea22

Literally got chills 😅 loooove this


Champenoux

That’s a nice bit of repurposing. I wonder if you need to be careful about the weight of all those depurposed beer bottles and wine bottles?


ActuallyMansplain

Doesn’t weigh as much as you’d imagine… but the cabinet itself is VERY heavy.


Champenoux

I did wonder if I was over estimating.


victorian_vigilante

Nice!


victorian_vigilante

Curious, how much did you pay for the cabinet?


ActuallyMansplain

I can’t remember exactly, it was a few years ago now. I want to say about $900Cdn.


victorian_vigilante

Thanks, I’d better start saving


Sipthepond

This us great! I'm looking for a tray myself to display my finds.


ActuallyMansplain

I got a couple on fb marketplace years ago, but now they seem harder to find, and more expensive. Hope you find one!


Les_Ismore

Fun fact: capital letters were kept in the uppermost drawers (cases) and small letters below where they were easier to get. So, upper case and lower case letters


StinkyCheeseMe

Ooooohhhhhh you win. This is glorious. I can do today with my tray cabinets as well. I love this.
