Collecting things

Do you collect anything...It sounds weird but I kind of collect rosary beads...I got a couple from family...some were handed down. Plus I gave a donation to a religious group and they sent me some and you know how it is when you give to a charity...you get on all kinds of lists...So now I have a bunch of them.
These cuts are leaving creases. Trace the scars to fit the pieces, to tell the story, you don't need to say a word.

it's rather excessive
Celebration, the ball's in play
I guess you could say that I collect crystals, stones, fossils, etc. I am into metaphysical healing and use crystals for various issues in my life.
Here is a link for those who do not think Adults collect autos

It puts the lotion in the basket...... :eek:
I've got several sets of rosary beads, not bad for an athiest hey? There's just something very soothing about them.
I also seem to have a collection of Elmos. :rolleyes: Not sure how that happened really.

Well, they are cute and I'm glad to have them, but gee, I don't wanna be the old lady with the doll collection! :eek:
People have given them to me as gifts over the years because I do love that little red fluffy monster so but I've had to politely but firmly say I'd prefer him on my pyjamas or t-shirts and not so much another Chicken Dance Elmo or Limbo Elmo or Potato Sack Race Elmo etc, thank you all the same.
It's my own silly fault! I get so excited whenever he pops up and I gravitate toward him in shops and on tele, so I guess folk think I must want 400 of him or something. I'm real careful now to be nonchalant if he appears in my world and other people are about, just so they don't race out and buy me another one!!! :eek: I sound ungrateful I guess, but I'm not, I really appreciate them, but there comes a time when there's something sad about having a toy collection and besides I'm running out of bed space for them all!!!

the biggest is probably boxes. i LOVE decorative boxes, all shapes/sizes/materials. mostly wood and other natural materials, usually arts and crafts or asian in design.
green teapots.
hand-blown glass perfume bottles.
books - especially art books, cds, dvds......loads!
chairs. yes, miniature chairs. i actually don't even display them anymore but they were an obsession for a long time, so down in storage in the basement for now, perhaps someday break em out again.
pearl jam posters.
most of my teapots, perfume bottles even some of the boxes and chairs i've gotten as gifts, during my travels, etc.....so hold a lot of meaning for me.
Let's just breathe...
I am myself like you somehow
LOL! Just another thing we have in common...and was cracking up to see them in your house.
now, it's not a serious collection (yet!), but I have started on the bootleg shows (not just PJ although that is most of my collection )
I collect these too. My parents and my ex bring me magnets from their travels as well...so I have quite a few. I group them geographically
I collect boxes too - and then use them to store the jewelry I collect I have wooden, cermic and metal ones - and the majority are from Poland, India and Africa. They've all been gathered on travels (my own or those of friends/family).
I love collecting jewelry - not the expensive precious gemstone kind - but a lot of handmade/ethnic pieces from different countries. My favorite pieces are ones my friend brings back from Armenia. I have a huge amber collection - all different colors/kinds - most of it from Poland.
Bonnaroo posters - I buy one every year that I attend and frame it.
Oh I forgot, I collect music - lots of it!!
Snow Globes

i collect Coca-Cola stuff, but i had to tell people that i stopped. now i just get what i want and not all the cheesy stuff. i don't want every stuffed Coca-Cola polar bear out there, or tin, puzzle, ink pen, key chain, etc...:eek: mostly i want the old bottles and crates, the classics.
vinyl
and i'm ashamed to say this (yes, i'm female)....i collect Garbage Pail Kids cards they make me laugh, and i've NEVER taken the stickers off any of those cards. even when i was a kid.
You got to spend it all
