My clarinet teacher used old reeds to make "clarinet art"--he did watercolor and marker pictures of clarinets and used the reeds as decoration in the pictures. He was asked to display his work at the art department of the college and it was excellent!
I have my R-13. I have my high school clarinet, an Olds Duratone, that is still in pretty good playing condition, and my "clarinet toy" box. In the box are a bunch of reeds...some old, some new, some that need to be sorted and thrown out; cork grease, bore oil, 3-4 mpcs., a couple ligatures, lyre, 2 sets of little screwdrivers, music dictionary, etc. I also just acquired a Vito 7214 clarinet on E-bay. It should arrive in about 10 days. It's going to be my outdoor horn for the Western Days parade and for bad weather during the summer band concerts.
And then there is my Irish Belleek china collection, and my hardanger embroidery and cross stitch supplies, rubber stamp supplies, and my scrapbooking stuff, and a whole shelf of genealogy research, birth/death/marriage certificates, obits., etc.
My husband has lots of books, enough to fill six foot shelves in a whole bedroom downstairs. He also has a ton of movies.
We all have our own precious stuff, I guess!
