My son saw mine and asked if I was starting a new trend, like the fuzzy dice were for windows back in the day. I told him he was so tall he could clean them while he was there. Of course he just laughed. I hate dusting. When I gave my other son my shadow box and all of the knick knacks that were on it, but he had to take the dust. He's like mom, theres a lot of dust, I said yes and it serves a purpose. If they were to fall off the shelf and hit the floor it would protect them from breaking. I'm slowly gettng rid of things and giving them to the kids they remind me of and will keep on going until there's just enough to fit into my curio cabinets where little dusting is required.
