Care and Maintenance Guide for Your Collection 🦖✨
Taking proper care of your figures not only keeps them in great condition but also highlights their beauty and details. Here are some useful tips:
- Storage boxes 🗂️
Use small compartmentalized boxes to store small animal figures. You can find them in craft, DIY, or dollar stores. They’re perfect for keeping your figures organized, clean, and protected. - Dish soap 🧼
If you acquire second-hand figures, clean them before adding them to your collection. Fill the sink with warm water, add a bit of dish soap, and use the soft side of a sponge to remove dirt and stains. Dry them completely before displaying. - Soft brush 🖌️
Figures on shelves tend to gather dust. Use a soft brush to gently remove it without damaging the details. - Microfiber cloths 🪣
These are essential for cleaning your shelf surfaces. Use a dry cloth to remove dust and a cleaning product only if there are stains. Avoid dampening surfaces before cleaning; wet dust becomes sticky and harder to remove. - Soft sponge 🧽
For second-hand figures, use a soft sponge or the softer side of a kitchen sponge to avoid damaging the pieces. - Acrylic shelves 📚
Creating different heights on your shelves can optimize space and make your figures stand out. Use acrylic shelves, wooden blocks, or inverted boxes to achieve this effect.
These small habits can make a big difference in maintaining and showcasing your collection. Enjoy taking care of your prehistoric treasures! 🦕✨
