Right now I have the following in:

-- Wicker basket
-- Medieval book, openable & WRITEABLE! Leather-bound with metal clasp
-- Two "blankets" or cloths to put over the basket
-- Two wooden crates, one large and one small
-- A wooden bowl
-- Pottery plate, bowl, mug, and storage jar
-- A working portable candle / table light
-- Carving/table knife
-- Cooking/stirring spoon
-- Bread peel

The basket, crates, storage jar, candle, book, wooden bowl, and bread peel are all Survival-buildable. The basket, crates, and storage jar can hold inventory. They can be used just like the game's vanilla storage items. The basket & crates also use the visual inventory system, so you can see what they're holding. The basket, crates, and storage jar also have hollow collision models so that you can physically fill them up with items. It makes a really nice, if not terribly useful, look.

The book can be opened and closed realistically, and can be crafted in Survival from the spinning wheel. You can now write a sentence of text in it! BUT, if you put the book into inventory, the text disappears. I'm looking for a C# whiz who can write a script to make that text persistent.

The wooden bowl is taken from a SketchFab scan originally by MicroPasts of an actual bowl recovered from the 16th century Mary Rose shipwreck. The file I pulled is a low-poly version by John Fino: https://sketchfab.com/models/b747abc1a0db4d62bc2f9319177bac37

The candle is tied into the game's lighting system, so it can be turned on and off. I have set the light output to be low & local. And I have created a custom particle effect for it so that the flame looks really nice. It makes a great effect walking down dark hallways. There is also a beeswax variant, if you have the Advanced Beekeeping mod, which will burn cleaner & add to your vigor!

I have made all of the pottery items extremely fragile, just as they would have been in real life. One hit with an axe or club and they will break.* The plates, being flat, stack really nicely when in dynamic mode.

* All of the items in this mod are destructible. You can break them and they'll disappear. The M.E. Destruction Tool isn't working now (and never has for mods), so there is no way to show the items "breaking" when destroyed. You just hear the break sound, see the dust, and then a few seconds later the item disappears. When Keen fixes the tool, I'll add visible breaking to all the items.
