Subject: What do you collect?

Posted by: Midget40
Date: Feb 28 09

Do any of you have hobbies that involve collecting things?

I'm a major model collector as in Nao, Lladro, Leonardo, Swarovski, Britains but I also collect cheaper versions too. If it appeals to me I will have something worth $2 sitting next to an expensive piece.

I collect cats, angels, fairies, crystal balls. ballerina's, knights

Most are ceramic but I have pewter as well.

Elephants! :-D China elephants, glass elephants, metal elephants, wooden elephants, soft toy elephants, shell elephants, soap elephants, plastic elephants. Also mugs, plates, teapots, paper napkins, pens, pencils, clocks, cushions, curtains, towels, bedding, lampshades, bags, boxes, tins, necklaces, brooches, hairslides and clothes with elephants on. Then there are elephant puzzles and games, children's stories about elephants, and other books with photographs and facts about elephants. And the pictures, posters and calendars to hang on the wall. My keyring, watering can and computer screen cleaner are all elephant shaped too. Even my current roll of kitchen paper has elephants on it!

Boxes. All the way from beautifully polished handmade wooden boxes to biscuit tins! My most treasured boxes were made for me by my husband, the one that my older son made for me in a woodworking course at school when he was 14 and the box that my younger son made out of birchbark at camp when he was eight.

I collect postcards through a website called postcrossing.com. Very fun and informative. I have collected stamps in the past and also anything to do with The Wizard of Oz. I don't have a lot of room to display anything so I've cut back quite a bit.

Although I haven't bought any for some time I collect stamps of the UK and Commonwealth, mainly of the pre decimal era. I also collect those of Germany pre Bundespost.

I collect hockey cards. I have over 20,000 cards from 1969-to the present. The total value of my collection is almost unbelievable as in $100,000+. I have several single cards worth upwards of $600.00 each. Yay!
