Geekery

It's been a long time since my last thrift share!
When I was in KY for the holidays, I came across a whole heap of 50s-60s vintage molecular model kits!
The structures are so fun to build, and look great as display or decor pieces.
Heck, they are even good for homework too!

I've built a few structures to list on Etsy, but would love to get some feedback.  If you were a buyer of these vintage molecules, would you want a structure already built (glued together and not moveable ~ seems as if the folks at Cathode Blue have had lots of success selling them this way) or prefer to have the pieces so you could make your own unique structure?  Quite a dilemma, but just trying to determine the best way to list these fun finds!
Thanks in advance for your feedback!

Looking forward to being part of the Thrift Share parties again, so linking up to Sophie & Selena this week!

Cheers ~ Lara

  1. I like the idea of the ready made, the sculpture for sale. Great find.

  2. I love these things! I'd much rather have one that can be taken apart. For me it wouldn't be fun if I couldn't actually play with it.

  3. I would like to be able to take them apart and play with them personally.
