Eccentric Curiosities

FlannelFoxen Giveaway!!!

Ends: December 10, 2021

Hey vultures! I wanted to show my appreciation for you all so I got a few things to give back. I bought duplicates because they were so cool. I thought I would share. I just want to say thank you to everyone who has supported me on here. I could not do what I am doing without you.

Prizes: Up for grabs is a brand new fleece throw blanket, ceramic fox, and a mystery curio box! The box contains animal bones, a skull, bird bits (legal of course), fur pieces, bug in resin, shells, crystals, a vintage postcard, vintage photo, tiny animals, etc. Total prizes are valued at $70.

How to enter: First, you must be located in the US. I cannot ship internationally but I wish I could. Second, you must like or reblog this post. More reblogs = more entries but don’t spam your followers. Have some class. Let other people have a chance. Third, you must be following me. I will be verifying the winner. If the winner is not eligible then I will choose another.

When: This giveaway ends on December 10, 2021. I will choose a winner through a random selection. I will announce the winner on Saturday the 11th. I hope this gives enough time to be shipped before the holidays. I will pay for shipping so don’t worry about that.

VC Shit People Dont Talk About

└─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───┘

{PSA : im not saying that literally no one ever talks about these but they sure were a surprise when i started the hobby after lurking 5ever}

✧ flesh is SO hard to pull straight off the bone

✧ the smell of fresh blood is surprisingly grosser than you think

✧ finding roadkill with an intact skull is harder than it seems

✧ pulling teeth is like trying to run away in a nightmare

✧ the flies that surround maceration are more annoying than they are icky

✧ the smell of maceration buckets may seem to be not that bad from afar, but waft over

✧ larger and fatter animals have skin that is so difficult to penetrate compared to small and extremely active ones

✧ specimens rarely have their eyes as crows will typically get them first, unexpectedly finding intact eyes is like an irl jumpscare

✧ it’s so much fun to work with specimens and discover things like which tendons curl the paw and such

✧ the smell of death will stay on your hands for like an hour after ur done (but only to you, it won’t smell like death to anyone else)

✧ the maggots on maceration specimens aren’t just a small cluster, it looks like someone poured white paint on that bitch

✧ collecting roadkill is hard, not because its superglued to the road, but because ur trying to avoid GETTING HIT BY A MF CAR
