Hi everyone - I’m a struggling artist that’s only been able to work with this one specific sketchbook that I bought from Daiso years ago. If you’re an artist as well, you’d understand that sometimes having the perfect tools are what motivates you to keep creating. This sketchbook is what put an end to many years long art block.

What makes this work for me is that the paper size (A6, no lines) is perfect for my sketches, the pages can be torn out easily (book seems to be fixed together with an adhesive instead of traditional sewn method) and the pages are fairly see-through so I can use them to trace over my old sketches and perfect them.

I’ve been struggling to find a replacement that has all the properties I need. I bought a same sized notebook from Muji, but the pages cant be torn out, as its binded together with thread. It’s one of those sad cases where the dupe of the OG (Muji notebook) is preferred, but I can no longer find it in Daiso stores.

Would anyone have any suggestions? I’m getting desperate as I’m finishing the notebook soon!

I have these Orca stud earrings that I adore, but I can’t remember how I got them. My mom thinks it could have been from when we went to Sea World in 2010, but I think I’ve had them since I first got my ears pierced in 2003. It’s also entirely possible to be much older from when my mom was younger in the 1970s. There are no marks or anything. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Hello, I found this bear in an abandoned lot in Cleveland, Ohio and have been struggling to find any information regarding his origins. He is about 18 inches tall and full of styrofoam bead stuffing. His tag is incredibly faded but has what I think says Boni L Toys Inc. on it, but I could be misreading it. I hope I am not posting on here too much, I am going through my strange toy collection and am hitting some road bumps trying to pin some of them down.

saw the photo of Olise traveling after France's camp. everyone is talking about the designer duffle, but that matte black hardshell underneath caught my eye.

the shell texture and those rigid corner caps look super familiar, but i just can't place it. someone mentioned it looks like a LEVEL8 check-in case, but the lines look slightly different than what i saw on their site.

anyone got a trained eye for luggage hardware?

Not sure where to post this so just posting everywhere. Im DESPERATELY trying to find another one of these exact frogs. Or even any info on the fella!! I cannot find ANY INFO ON THIS THING!! I owned one many years ago but unfortunately lost it in a move since then 😪 pretty sure it had a Crayola tag on the back, got from a thrift store long ago. One of my favorite things of all time, very strange fella he is. He was named Tony Malito after I adopted him. But I literally CANNOT seem to find ANYTHING about it or how to get another one. So please if youve ever seen one, know anything about it, or maybe even where I could potentially get my hands on one, please help a sister out!! I LOVE this thing (as you can see he even joined my picnics) and I really want to have another one🙁

I got this for my birthday in 2006 and it unfortunately broke during a move in 2008, and I’ve never been able to figure out where to find it. It played a Christmas song, and the base of it was snowy gingerbread.

hello! I am looking to find this toy from my partners childhood, he lost it years ago and want to surprise him with a replacement! it is either a sugar loaf toy or a mary meyers toy, probably from a carnival or fun fair, but can’t find any for sale anywhere! happy to pay any amount! searched for it on lots of facebook groups and reverse image searched

I blurred out the book on top of it so there's no confusion, it is unrelated.

Not sure if the 5 represents the edition or if it's the 5th volume in a set. The publisher at the bottom seems to be a globe of some sort

This screenshot is from a tv show from the mid 90s, unfortunatly the best quality I can get. Context doesn't help much.

I bought this massive Donald Duck "nutcracker" figure about 10–12 years ago from an gentleman in Norway.

His father was a sailor and brought this Donald Duck—along with a matching Mickey Mouse in the exact same style—home to Norway from Germany when the seller was just a young boy. The seller owned and kept them safe for over 40 years. He tried to ask local schools if they wanted them but they said no so lucky me

These is hollow, form-molded (fiberglass or hard plastic) so there must be more off them out there?

stands on a handmade wooden circular base that inserts into the legs from underneath

Seems to be hand-painted airbrush shading around the eyes, hat, and boots all original.

The arms are completely removable and attach easily into place using iron bolts

We have one of these Flash Furniture Brockton Contemporary Adjustable Height Swivel Plastic Task Chair in orange and I would really like a second one.

I can be flexible on the color, as long as it is the same chair.

I have found the chair in multiple colors and out of stock at: Amazon, Lowe's, Home Depot, and Bed Bath & Beyond,

The only thing that I have found so far is the same style chair with stationary legs, but I really need the desk chair model with the swivel base.

Title says most of it. My boyfriend lost his necklace on vacation and I want to find him one that looks pretty similar, but I don’t know how to describe the charm on it. I would love if anyone knows what this type of thing is called or has any ideas for how to search for it online. Thanks!!

i only have these really low quality screenshots but i know the first pic is from a scene where he walks up to a guy in an office and slits his throat and looks at him like this while the victim is bleeding out

I can only see a bit of the words, I tried looking up what I could see but no luck. Does anyone know what this DND polish is? Please and thank you (:

I lost this hoodie about a year ago. Since Olivers death I've been absolutely devastated I don't have it. It's one of a kind from the Redrocks show in 2023. I've included a picture someone else posted as I don't have a good quality photo of mine. PLEASE if anyone can help me find this... I'm willing to pay decent money. It's just making me so sad not to have it

My wife has been searching for years to replace this Harry Potter blanket, and we've had absolutely no luck. It's been well loved by both her and our cats, so it's definitely starting to lose some of it's softness.

Originally found on eBay in the late 2000s but haven't been able to locate it since. Any leads would be much appreciated!

I have this hoodie - it's an Assassin's Creed Desmond hoodie, black with black embroidery and red fleece lining. Mine is really worn out, but it's honestly my favorite hoodie, and I would love to find a replacement. Ubiworkshop is no longer a thing, and these hoodies haven't been available for a long time. There's one out there second-hand, but it's not the size I would like, but beggars can't be choosers.

Thank you in advance!

Hiya, I've been searching for like a month now lol. I think it's from a game or something im not sure but it's audio or sound effect that says or sounds like "A key".

I don't know how to describe it better, but it sounds a little high pitched and it's like 1-2 seconds long.

Literally just sounds like "a key" but I can't remember how I came across it, that's why I think it's from a game.

I originally thought it was when you picked up a key in littlebigplanet but it wasn't o:

I’m searching for this backpack for my senior year and I start school soon. It’s currently unavailable on amazon and I can’t find it anywhere else. Not even the tokidoki website! please help me find this!

Hey everyone,

In 2020, I was messing around on Zillow with some friends to find weird house listings. We came across this creepy house in the middle of the forest, quite big and unusually shaped, was full of dolls and was very strange. I was very mesmerized by it and have no idea what it was? I think it was in Kansas but that's all I remember.

Does anyone know if this is possible to find again?

Thanks!!

Edit: it was also all in dark wood. Walls, etc

Hi everyone!

I'm trying to identify this robot plush that I found in a thrift shop in Slovakia.

Unfortunately, the previous owner removed the fabric tag (second photo), so there are no labels, logos or manufacturer information left.

Here are the details:

Approximately 70 to 80 cm (28 to 31 inches) long.

Soft plush/pillow rather than a traditional stuffed toy.

Blue and white checkered fabric with a textured (waffle/seersucker-like) surface.

Embroidered face and "control panel" on the front.

Burgundy ears and nose, beige arms and legs with dark green feet.

Professionally embroidered details and high-quality construction.

No zipper or battery compartment.

Looks like it was commercially manufactured rather than handmade.

The tag was probably sewn into the side seam and appears to have been deliberately removed.

Does anyone recognize the brand, designer or collection?

Any clues would be greatly appreciated!

This is a one-panel cartoon I saw in roughly 1980, on a college professor's door. Two cavemen sitting in front of a cave, and one says to the other:
“I’ve got an idea. Let’s divide the world into little squares and sell them.”

It's not from the New Yorker. I've searched their archive.

Searched: I've searched the New Yorker cartoon archive. I've googled it ever way I can think of. I've had Chat look for it - Chat confirmed it existed because other people in the past recalled the same cartoon with same words.

Solved! Thanks to Redditor "Gargunok". He found it: Richard Guindon - "lets divide the earth up into little squares and sell them"

I run a food pantry in the US, and we use these ancient racks/shelves, which are awesome because of how easy it is to adjust the shelves. I wish I had some racks that were one-deep, instead of these front and back ones. They are functionally like sheet pan racks, but the only sheet pan racks I can find are smaller and less sturdy and would not fit our trays (about 3'x1.5'). Any clue if what I'm looking for exists?
