It's mainly a collection of art history and Sherlock Holmes books, but I have some novels and special items as well. In the middle cubby I have what I like to call my "rare items" collection, which consists of two war magazines from 1915 and an original booklet interview with Henri Matisse from 1958. I love my collection because I'm obsessed with art history and love reading in general.]]> 2019-10-03 01:32:40 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/392799744 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/393321308 2019-10-03 22:56:32 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/393321308 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/393686502 This is my playbill/program collection. In this collection I have a wide range of programs including dance performances, community theatre, and national theatre companies. The main criteria is that I have seen the show and was able to get a program for it. Most of my collection comes from musicals that I have seen-- my most cherished are my playbills. The earliest program I have is from a dance performance I went to in 2012, and the most recent addition is the program for Audra McDonald's performance from September at Hancher. ]]> 2019-10-04 17:06:34 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/393686502 madison_ide https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/393862150 This is a collection of assorted pins (my skull collection is included just to add photo interest...). It isn’t too big of a collection yet, and I collected all of them within about the past year. Collection criteria is a) being a pin, and b) displays an image that I like. What I am attracted to about the collection are the sharply distinctive colors and shiny surfaces. ]]> 2019-10-05 06:48:35 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/393862150 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/394007166 This is the dice collection owned by Lindsay Lerner. Each dice is a part of a full matching set most of which consist of a D4, D6, D8 D10, D%, D12, and D20, though there are some sets that include multiple D20s or are game specific sets, such as her Vampire: The Masquerade set, which consists of all D10s. These are all dice created for tabletop RPGs, and are mostly used for Dungeons and Dragons. Some sets were purchased specifically for a certain character, while others were purchased just because they were pretty and she wanted them in her collection. It is my goal to one day have a dice collection this large and beautiful. ]]> 2019-10-05 21:33:37 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/394007166 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/394013324 2019-10-05 22:26:57 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/394013324 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/394116583 This is my plant collection that I started three years ago with the little zebra plant in the white pot in the middle. Most of my plants have names and a lot of them are named after Twilight characters. I currently have twenty-two plants, and that is including the Marimo moss ball inside my fish tank. When I first started collecting them, it was only succulents because they are hardier and typically easier to take care of but now I am more interested in leafy plants, so that's what I usually buy. I have always been known to collect things, like books, movies, stickers, rocks, and even bottle caps. I think when it comes to collecting plants, it feels more justified and actually makes sense, which is why I do it.]]> 2019-10-06 14:58:15 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/394116583 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/394195158 This is my mug collection! I started it my first year of college when I moved into my house and have been collecting ever since. I have no real set collection criteria. I love all mugs, but especially holiday themed ones or ones from my favorite coffee shops/restaurants. I have 28 total mugs so far, some are not pictured because they are in the dishwasher (:

She really got into quilting when she retired, and has made hundreds of quilts to gift to friends and family, to be displayed in quilt shows and shops, and to be donated to different causes such as Quilts of Valor for veterans and children's hospitals. The quilts have a lot of value to me because my grandma pieced, sewed, and quilted them all, and I grew up watching her make them. She also taught me to sew and quilt, so I aspire to have my own collection someday. ]]> 2019-10-06 22:43:10 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/394195540 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397022573 This is just a small portion of the movie poster collection I have going. I've always been passionate about movies but only really started going out of my way to collect posters in the past year. The ads shown here contain just a few of my favorite movies and poster designs; there are a ton of other posters I'm hoping to get in the future and I would love to expand my collection within the next few years. ]]> 2019-10-12 19:06:58 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397022573 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397113582 These are just a small portion of my postcard collection. I started this collection when I was in elementary school and it slowly built up. I have postcards from traveling to different countries and also from exhibits. I like postcards because they capture the places and things you see at the locations almost exactly like they are. Although I can also take photos, there are some places where photography is prohibited by general visitors. The photos on postcards are taken by professionals who are given permission to take photographs of these prohibited objects and exhibits. That way, I can go back and see the things I saw at a museum or exhibit that I could not take photos of.]]> 2019-10-13 14:12:19 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397113582 jtj_13731 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397138623 These are some of the highlights of my magic the gathering collection. Ive been playing the game for 8 years and its still a huge part of my life. The game gives you so much freedom to play your exact playstyle whatever that may be. So collecting more cards allows you to take your playstyle in new and interesting directions.]]> 2019-10-13 17:07:21 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397138623 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397148331 These are some of my collections that can wear or put on hair. I have collected these crowns and Chinese hairpins for 3 years. The front 4 hairpins are the newest I get from the old Chinese hairpins owner. And the two crowns are my favourites in all my head collections. I really love these kind of things. I can wear them during the time I wear Chinese triditional Han clothings. ]]> 2019-10-13 18:17:31 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397148331 zachary_drysdale https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397171868 This is a scotch-whiskey collection, collected by Valentino Zagatti. Zagatti was a blind man who, once he stopped smoking, became a connoisseur of scotch whiskey, and collected unopened bottles. His oldest bottle dates back to 1843. His collection was greatly sought after, and he sold it on the conditions that the collection doesn't get split up for ten years, no bottle is opened, and it must be on display for the world to see. The collection is currently in the Netherlands, bought by Scotch Whisky International. This is my favorite collection because scotch whisky has become so engrained into the culture of Scotland that it has shaped parts of Scottish history and has its roots deep in Scottish tradition. As a history major, the impact that whisky has had on Scotland is of great interest, and I plan to write a small research paper if I achieve the opportunity to study abroad there next semester by going to different distilleries and doing distillery tours.]]> 2019-10-13 20:36:45 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397171868 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397183633 This is my favorite collection, which is placing in the Antique Car Museum of Iowa. This is a Ford Thunderbird, and it was made in 1955.

I originally started to collect these things in High school, and currently have a military jacket completely decked out in nerdy and edgy patches. From there, I began to do the same with stickers (as seen on this laptop cover!). The only organizational method I use is to make sure each patch is mostly visible and that colors/themes don't clash. ]]> 2019-10-13 22:23:35 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397187759 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397188235 This is the bulk of my Blu-ray/DVD collection, loosely organized by genre, series, and chronology within said series. This collection in started around 2011. I've always enjoyed films, and don't have the patience to wait for them to appear on streaming services. I also just like the aesthetic of a wall of movies, which you don't get with digital. ]]> 2019-10-13 22:26:13 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397188235 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397191593 This is a Sauropod at the Field Museum in Chicago in their hall of dinosaurs. This collection was collected by many archaeologists from around the world and took many years to come to life and is still evolving to this day with new specimens being added when available. This particular collection is actually several put together because there are many dinosaurs from different time periods so they are divided up to give patrons a snapshot of what the environment was like back then. The thing about this particular collect that most interests me is the diversity is shows in the paleontological world of how you don't just study dinosaurs, you study Jurassic Aquatic Predators or Triassic Land Dwelling Herbivores and many other subsections that are often grouped into one large group that has many more interesting subsections. I also really enjoy this collection because ever since I've been a kid I've enjoyed dinosaurs and the wonder and awe they inspire from their enormous size.]]> 2019-10-13 22:47:28 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397191593 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397199200 While this is not entirely my collection as the top two shelves are my roommates books. My favorite collection is my book collection. This is also a very limited view into what I have since I only brought a few of my books from home. My dream is to have a room with a wall of books or have a personal library.]]> 2019-10-13 23:30:21 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397199200 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397204518 I love to collect stuffed toys because they are very cute and they are feel so soft and comfortable.

Thus, I bought tons of different playing card for "cardistry." Those in my collection can be either beautiful, limited edition or cheap for practice. From the image, you can see part of my collection in the USA, and I have much more expensive ones back in China. They are really important for me, since they can help me to claim down and thinking when I want some time for myself.]]> 2019-10-14 00:08:26 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397204923 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397205488 This is a very small portion of my overall collection, it's only the ones that I brought to college is missing the ones that adorn my desk but these dinosaurs (and other prehistoric creatures) are part of what fueled my passion for paleontology as a child and they are a fun nostalgic reminder that I enjoy expanding now that I have a little money (not enough). My criteria is only that the animal must be extinct, my collection currently includes fish, crocodylians, marine reptiles, dinosaurs, pterosaurs, and mammals, and that they should be as scientifically accurate as possible. I mostly pick them up at national parks and at museums, unfortunately until I get a real job the really nice ones are still out of my price range but I'm slowly expanding nevertheless. Not pictured is the Thylacine (extinct Tasmanian tiger) that I picked up at the paleontology conference I was at this last week. I include a couple of other paleontology trinkets in this collection, such as the lego paleontologist minifigure pictured here. Overall the collection is a testament to the childhood sense of wonder that I felt about prehistoric animals and they double as a great conversation starter!]]> 2019-10-14 00:12:36 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397205488 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397206587 Just in case people feel difficult to understand what is cardistry, I post one of my gif here.

I collect many of 25 cent coin. I think it is fun for us to collect something we like. Why i choose coin? I think every coin have his own back view and we can see many places in a country like USA. We can get to know their culture and different great beautiful place.]]> 2019-10-14 00:25:04 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397208364 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397211382 This collection is made up of little figurines that I've collected from antique shops and thrift stores. I started buying them so that I could display something on a little glass shelf I have in my room. My criteria is if it catches my eye! All three of these are super unique, and are at least 50 years old, so I like to imagine what their histories are like or where they came from.

Those are all different kinds of plants. This plant collection is in my hometown, China. My mother decided to collect them due to I went to America for studying, so she felt a little emptiness in the house. In addition, plants are easier to raise compared to pets such as dogs. I also like this collection because plants make me feel positive and alive. ]]> 2019-10-14 00:47:45 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397212874 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397216613 Over the years, I have started a few different collections on my own, but the one I am showing today is my ceramics collection. This collection is kind of a jumble of all different types of ceramics, but the criteria for this collection is that it has to be handmade; either thrown on the pottery wheel, or hand-built with slabs, coils, or another hand-building technique. It contains both functional and non-functional pieces. I collected these pieces, but they aren't all made by me. Some of them are, but I also love to collect other people's artwork. This collection intrigues me because I have been making ceramics for over 11 years now, and I love the fact that clay can be made into whatever the artist wants it to be made into. A few of these pieces were done by friends, a couple by my mentor, and I even have a cup that I collaborated on with another artist! Some of these ceramic pieces have been given to me as gifts, but the majority of them I either made or purchased. This photo does not represent my entire ceramics collection, this is actually just a small portion of it! A lot of my collection is back at home so I don't have access to photograph those pieces right now. I love this collection because each of these pieces holds a special memory for me, and I get to be reminded of that every time I use one of them! (P.S. It was really hard to get an angle where you could see all the details of them, so I just tried to pick the best one!)]]> 2019-10-14 01:02:58 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397216613 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397218829 I've always been really fascinated by color schemes, and this is one of my favorite color-themed collections. I call it my pink-and-green wall for lack of a better idea. The only real requirement for it is that all of the pieces must be largely pink, green, or both, and I've collected a number of them from around the world. My two favorites are the extremely round cat near the top/middle and the small (I don't even know if you can see it) landscape just down and to the left of the cat. The cat is a print from a local Iowa City artist, and the landscape is from Hallstatt, a tiny Austrian town where the first evidence of Continental Celts were discovered. The thing that's most fun to me about collecting things based on color is that the subject matter can vary so widely within a single collection, as evidenced by those very prints.]]> 2019-10-14 01:11:06 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397218829 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397227973 My collection is the motorcycle. I have three motorcycles Iowa, and one in my hometown, Beijing. Those three motorcycles are 2016 Triumph Tiger 800, 2010 Yamaha r1 Rossi Edition, and 2016 Harley Iron 883. Also, I have a BMW R1200gs in Beijing. I'm really like the motorcycle because it can provide me excite, speed, and interest, and it also very easy to parking, so that I use motorcycle as my daily transportation. I bought many motors because they have different functions and use. I go to track with sportbike, and do a road trip with adventure bike, and daily commuting with a cruiser bike. Those motorcycles make my life convenient and exciting. ]]> 2019-10-14 01:43:30 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397227973 makennamaguire_maguire https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397234312 This is not my exact collection, but when I was younger whenever I went on vacation or my dad went on a business trip we always used to bring back a post card from that place as a little souvenir. I had them in my old house and since my parents moved last year we have not been able to find it anywhere.

It’s quarters that have more than just the eagle backs: states, territories, and monuments. It makes getting change fun, because if a quarter is one that I do not have them it no longer is change, but something for me to keep. It’s also interesting to see what all the different images they choose to represent the states. I will only have one of each and only change them out if the original one is significantly worse condition. They decided what each one was years in advance, and every year their is a possibility for a new quarter back. ]]> 2019-10-14 02:58:51 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397244172 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397250260 This my roommate's collection of bookmarks.

(I could only bring so many from home). This collection is very special to me because I actually created and/or painted some of the shoes myself. The criteria is that they have to be useful or unique. Beyond the fact that it's mine, the collection attracts me because I've always loved shoes and I'm reminded that even if something is out of my price range, there's always a way to create it (and it becomes uniquely yours.)]]> 2019-10-14 03:55:04 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397254826 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397260246 This is my windowsill in my bedroom which I use to hold my collection of rocks, crystals and other kitschy objects which hold meaning to me. Besides the rocks, everything featured here has been thrifted or I have found at antique/vintage shops, everything also has to have vibrant colors. There is repeated imagery of suns and moons, as well as my favorite parts of the collection which are two prints of the zodiac symbols, Taurus and Sagittarius. I found these prints in two separate vintage shops and they obviously belong to the same collection, which was just a very happy coincidence. ]]> 2019-10-14 04:30:37 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397260246 botao_zhao_1 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397262187 This is part collections of my shoes, i do like the sneakers culture, especially like Yeezy and Jordan.

Even though it is not physical, it is VERY important to me. I collect videos from concerts and festivals with my friends. I have over 1,500 videos archived, and we run an instagram page where we post these videos to share with people who might enjoy them :) this collection has been going on for around three years now and has become something really cool to be a part of because even if not everyone in our group gets to go to the concert, all of the best parts are recorded and saved.]]> 2019-10-14 14:54:36 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397456772 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397472820 A collection that I find myself around each day is the acrylic screen printing paint collection at the University in the Visual Arts Building. This paint doesn't belong to any one person in particular and is rather owned by all of the students in screen printing courses. I refer to them as franken-paints because they are mixed and remixed by students in the department to be used in prints and then recycled and reused. I'm intrigued by this collection because of it's sense of sustainability and how they all have a part of each student in them. ]]> 2019-10-14 15:23:21 UTC https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397472820 https://padlet.com/HeidiLung/MUSM3001_module5/wish/397499346 This is part of the collection of my lipsticks.
