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.

I've collected many things over the yeas. Apart from books/cd/dvd I currently collect rosemary spice jars, small black teddy bears and geological specimens such as fossils, rock and minerals.

From now on I'm buying two of every Predator figure that I collect. Most of the figures that I have bought are now 10 time more expensive. I bought one 6 years ago for $15 and it is now $125.

I actually still collect Bazooka joe comics. I would'nt if I could help it (I'm running out of room to put them) but it's kind of a habit.

I used to collect comic books but not anymore. I have about 600 left and will sell them someday.
I also have about 600 hotwheels. Most opened but many of the newer ones in the box.
And some Hallmark Christmas ornaments from 12-15 years ago. Will eventually sell those also.
Now I try to collect kisses from my little girl.

I collect coins and I have a doll collection. When I go away on a vacation or somewhere I have never been I bring something back, like a napkin or whatever and put it in a scrapbook. Last trip I took was to Ellis Island. I like that it is fun.

Trivia tidbit: There is no such word as "anyways".

I guess I collect trivia tidbits :)

I must correct myself - "anyways" IS in the dictionary, but it is not standard English. The preferred form is "anyway".

I used to collect postcards when I was young, but I just let it lapse. I have a large collection of hedgehogs, both cuddly and china. My husband used to collect beer mats, which now live in the loft. My son collects badges, Pokemon Cards and cars from TV and Film, eg Bluesmobile and A Team Van etc. You could also say we collect DVDs because between the three of us we have hundreds.
