To collect Crystals, you'll again need to dig at the rocks around towns. You could get a MySims Trophy, or a fossil, metal, or crystal. After the Cats & Dogs update, these spawn spots are shared by a pile of dirt that dogs can interact with, further reducing your chances of getting the item you're after. From my experience, the easiest way to get this whole collection is to get it while at the Science Center from Get to Work (either with a travel mod or as a Scientist). Otherwise, expect to spend a while on this one. Also, the two Get to Work pack Crystals and the two Jungle Adventure Crystals are not required for the collection completion, and must be found on Sixam (a "secret" lot), and in Selvadorada, respectively.
All Crystals give a +3 to Energizing Decor when placed.
*Crystals can also be refined and placed in a Celestial Crown (Get Famous) to have varying effects on sims. (listed in the table below)
