Need a creative solution for keeping your precious moments birthday figurines displayed and well kept? Try creating an indoor sculpture garden-even enlisting the help of your kids if you have them. Modeling a little TLC while creating a downsized version of the great outdoor sculpture gardens will prove an invigorating project that helps you showcase the value of your collection: both sentimental and monetary.
Not everyone intrinsically understands the basic principles that make collectible figurines so valuable. By highlighting the details in craftsmanship and artistry of each item, an indoor sculpture garden can not only transform a home but also transform the thoughts of a house guest viewing the collection.
The natural collector in you will gravitate toward giving birthday figurines and other collectibles to friends and family, even youth. While encouraged to do so, remember that children especially may need some support in learning how to display and care for a gift that celebrates one of their life's precious moments. Offer to help them start their own indoor sculpture garden or invite them to take a look at one you've created-it just may teach a worthwhile lesson in art appreciation.
Because these collections will often pass to younger generations down the road, a lesson in maintaining value presents itself as each piece for your indoor sculpture garden is removed from its box. Retain the original packaging and explain to your kids why this is important; perhaps you even want to add paper notes to the original container indicating whose it is, when and where it was purchased and the details that make it is so special.
After the packaging is safely stored, myriad ideas may zoom through a collector's head. Whether working with youth or not, a clever and theme-focused design will make the project more smooth and the results more astonishing. One idea for arranging collectibles includes grouping them in smaller arrangements by size, color or category. This way, the garden's visitors will see the collection on a more meaningful level.
If nervousness persists with the collectibles out of the packaging and multiple kids playing about, creating your indoor sculpture garden within the confines of a curio cabinet might prove the best option. Enhanced with lighting, mirrors and accessible heights for dusting, you may enjoy the look of your Precious Moments collection behind glass windows, and the security of Grandma's personalized 100-year birthday figurine locked in a case may help you breathe a little easier.
Over time, your indoor sculpture garden may experience many design changes, but the overall treatment and storage of each piece should persist: take care to keep pieces in dry places. Just as the memory of life's precious moments can be priceless, each piece can continue to recreate those memories for generations to come if cared for and displayed properly. - 29975
