I collect porcelain dolls and money from all ages and around the world. My son collects baseball cards and comics. What do you enjoy collecting?
I have quite a few collections. This one might scare people, but I have pretty nice collection of religious paraphernalia specifically Catholic. Anything from statuary to holy water bottles. Nope I’m not Catholic never have been, there’s just something about the art that I enjoy and I’ve always liked the ritualism. That being said, I also collect toys from when I was a kid, Pezz dispensers I have over 100, Batman figures I have over 30, lots of curious George lots of hello Kitty. Some Star Wars but specifically anything to do with Chewbacca. I love collecting things and they’re all collecting dust. I do not collect to sell. I have no kids so I’m not really sure what I’m gonna do with all the stuff but somebody will want it I’m sure.
I collect films on DVD and VHS especially Japanese and Korean Cinema.
However I also go through fads of collecting book on various none fiction subjects.
I collect a few things. Willow Tree figurines are my most recent fetish; they are so natural and earthy, and I love that they are faceless. I also have collections of small pewter pieces and rocks/shells/fossils from the places I travel/hike.
I can't reply to your comment directly for some reason, but thanks for the tip. I love walking over there, but I didn't know about that particular spot. I'll check it out.
I have a porcelain doll collection. I'm also collecting languages that I'm learning. I know English, Spanish and Romanian...don't know what my next one will be yet.
Impressive on the languages
I tend to collect things along useful themes. I love to cook and have collected a ton of cooking gadgets. I also love woodworking and have amassed an extensive shop full of wood working tools.
Oooo woodworking love it
Mistakes <deep sigh>
Yeah I have been box of them....but I also collect music, friends, joy, laughter & knowledge
I collect books on crime and fish.
That is truely an eclectic collection.
I didn't write that properly lol. I collect books and I collect fish.
@LeighShelton I collect books, magazines... and write them about ornamental aquatics!
@BobFenner oh wow very cool
@LeighShelton Yeah Leigh. Is that your giant gourami?
@BobFenner yes and it's my third one. had them all my adult life. this is my giraffe catfish.
@LeighShelton Ahh! Have seen some of these in public aquariums that were huge.
@BobFenner its 28"
@LeighShelton Wowzah!
I love my fish--I have a catfish that is about 22 years old. I also started keeping goldfish, rosy minnows, gambusia & albino channel cats in out door ponds.
Too much, actually. Primarily magnets and Disney pins.
I collect momentos from trips, mugs, rocks and books
Guitars and gray hair.Not enjoying the gray hair part though.
I think we all have to deal with that at some point
@ashortbeauty Collecting guitars? I hope not, more for me, lol.
@nvrnuff guess I should have specified lol
@ashortbeauty Not to worry, it's just the smart ass n me
I cannot like that statement enough....strings just shine......
I like to collect older currency.
Me too
I have a houseful of antique furniture and MCM art pottery....I actually have the largest known collection of a certain type of MCM pottery with about 1000 pieces (thanks Grandma). I also have 150+/- of the Degenhart glass owls (over 240 colors were made)....and, as a chef, I have over 1000 cookbooks...
Wow
I don't collect any one thing, but I am into mid century modern furniture. I tend to find projects, fix them up, then either keep them, give them to my kids, or re-sell. I just finished my first attempt at dyeing a leather chair. It didn't turn out too bad. I still have to put a protective coat on it. If my kids don't want it, I will sell it. Nothing wrong with a little extra cash!
This is the "before" shot.
This is a weird thing to collect but I collect rocks. Not valuable rocks, just interesting shapes and colored rocks. I live in an apartment at the moment but I used to put them in my backyard.
When you moved to your apartment, did you bring the rocks, or do the people who live in your old house now have a backyard with really cool rocks?
Just curious.
I am also a collector of rocks...I love rocks!@paul1967
@scurry, @Freedompath Really? I think you and I are the only two. Maybe not.
@paul1967 @freedompath fossils fascinate me, although I don't collect. Rocks & pebbles; I like colourful and smooth, and geodes are pretty cool too.
My brother-in-law studied geology and would 'talk rocks' a lot.
I still have my comic book collection...
