Angels, Old Books, Bibles

I'm not really a collector.... though dog items, if they counted, would be a major collection. Jackson's got a nice collection of harnesses, collars and ID tags

I agree, I used to collect stuff, like ornaments etc, that my family gave me, then I started to realized that half of it was dollar store stuff (my grandmother whom I dearly love is a wee bit of a horder). And after the third move (in school) I gave up on half the crap, now when I move I only keep things I've used or displayed in the last year, I only have one box of books and one box of baby stuff that isn't being used.

As for dog things.... well Harley has soooo many toys and I love making and buying them.

I also eventually hope to ad Yorkies to my collection when I have enough money to have a house full of the little fuzz balls

MONEY!

I collect foreign money. I have a fairly large collection of money from all different countries. I haven't been outside of the US but all my friends and family send me money when they go places. Some I have to look up on the map. LOL

Christmas motion figures (previously produced by telco and Santa's best)... I have over 100 that I display every year... it is quite a sight

celstu1 · 04-13-2011, 06:21 AM

I used to collect collector edition Barbies. I have about 50 of them, but haven't bought any new ones in YEARS. I'm actually thinking about selling most of them now. I can make some quick money and they are all just sitting in the basement in their boxes. Its sad.

I also collect liquor glasses. I love the shapes, colors, sizes, weights of them. I think it's so interesting that there are so many types of glasses to have a drink from. Almost each drink has its own special glass.

I get them everywhere I go, I find some interesting, unique, fun pair and buy them as a souvenir for myself. I once bought a pair of weighted high ball glasses at the Luxor hotel in Vegas, they were neon purple. I put them in the dishwasher 1x and the purple shrunk and fell off entirely!!

That was a bummer because I think I paid close to $20 a glass!

I colect Dallas stuff

JesStang · 04-13-2011, 10:20 AM

I collect piggy banks! I love pigs, they're just so cute.

I used to collect shotglasses from different trips I would take but then I realized that instead of buying shotglasses with different cities/states on them, I should buy the piggy bank!

I love Precious Moments and I like to get one for each "big" event in my life but I don't "collect" them all. Even though I'm sure I will be buying that yorkie figurine someone posted in off-topic a while back.
