Aren't they? While I was looking last night I found a new collection called MylittleKitchenFairies. They are to decorate your kitchen and they are like little toddler fairies, soooo cute!

If I hadn't started collecting Mermaids years ago, I would have fairies. They have such beautiful one. Here are some of mine.

A few more, 1st one is from England, but I love my little fat one.
Love the Wizard of Oz, Amber. I still watch it if I catch it on TV & I have the movie.

Do you have any of your old quilts for sale?

Actually...yes I do. I have always collected mint condition quilts but I've dwindled my collection down over the last couple of years. If there's something you're looking for just PM me and I'll see if I have it.

Oh...I forgot to mention that we also have a small collection of Art Glass. I love Tiffany and Lundberg. It's been a while since I bought any glass but I hope to ad a few pieces to that collection again soon.

I too collect fabric as I am a quilter also. Plus my husband and I collect kaleidoscopes, blown glass, blown marbles, well now that I'm thinking about it pretty much anything that's about color and artsie. We are kaleidoscope artisit and have the opportunity to meant different artisit and started collecting their work along with ours.

LOL we watch it every year when it comes on i love it to! I have run out of room to put all the dolls i have lol we have a huge walk in closet in our room with shelves on both sides and i have had to store all my doll there lol they are staked 2 high and 2 deep i really wish i had a room i could put it all in lol. I love Fairies to they are some of my favorite things to wish to collect. I also do a christmas ornament for my sons every year i love it because i get the cute first christmas to start them off and them every year they are into something different like sponge bob scooby doo lion king so i get to alway remeber what they liked that year it makes me a little teary talking about it i plan to do this till they are 18 and then i might give them to them for christmas on their 18th B-day or wait till they are married and have their first child. I'm so senimantal lol

(boy does that ever sound boring)

I collect old and/or antique teddy bears. My fear is one of them falling to the relentless teeth of one of my three Yorkies who would love to "personalize" them for me. So far I've been pretty lucky and only had them slobbered and slimbed a bit. I just know the day is coming though. How long can my luck last?

JillandJack · 03-10-2007, 11:19 PM

Oh boy, you asked me the wrong question. Where do I begin. I collect antique quilts, yellowware, patriotic, miniature dolls, baskets, teddy bears, snowbabies, Byers Choice Carollers, paper mache rabbits, santas, miniature graniteware, high top baby shoes, advertising tins and vintage textiles. Yes, I am an antique nut. I love anything old and small. Here's a little peek into two of my cupboards. I never thought about the dust, but I certainly do collect that as well!

Thank you for the head's up. I was at our local store -- I am a real regular -- they didn't say anything about closing. I will have to watch them like a hawk!

BubblPopElectrc · 03-11-2007, 09:33 PM

Antique botanical prints and ceramic Pluto (disney) figurines. I've also recently started to like egg cups, particularly Delfts, which I discovered while on vacation.

I Love Bailey · 03-12-2007, 12:13 AM

I used to collect Raggedy Ann dolls, snowmen, Precious Moments and homespun art but we have moved quite a bit in the past 10 years and I went from a country style home to Mediterranean, so I have sold quite alot on Ebay.
I do collect Angels, Buddahs (I think they are cute) and Crosses.
My whole family is trying to scale down on things that collect dust and live more simply.
