My secret Santa nailed it!

I am a museum curator and have my own little cabinet of curiosities, I mentioned it in my bio along with the fact I like to do art (I’m not good but I love art supplies). My Santa got me a 400 million yr old fossil!!!!! I can barely contain my excitement.

My Santa went all out and got me 4 presents! I was so excited when I opened the cute sketching kit, but then the other package blew me away. Curios and science geekiness!!!!

Inside were three specimens with cute little provenance cards.

Canyon diablo, iron found in 1891 USA Fossilized cephalopod approx 400million years old Sandstone plate from Arizona 180million years old

These are so so perfect! They went straight onto my shelves. The cephalopod is so special, it went right next to another cephalopod I have.

Thank you so much Santa, you have made my Christmas!
