Default What do you collect?

Sorry if this has already been done. I'm always fascinated by things like this, as I have so many collections of my own.

Firstly, I collect books. I have very little space on my bookshelves now, and the collection is growing by the week.

Secondly, I collect little dragon figurines. They're one of my older collections, but I don't have the heart to put them in a box somewhere, as they're so cute!

Thirdly, and lastly for now, there's my most recent collection. I've started to collect silver charms for my charm bracelet. I'm trying to keep to a fantasy theme, and I'm always on the lookout for new charms, especially since I try to get a new charm whenever I go to a new place. It gives me something to remember my trip by, too.

So how about everyone else? What sort of things do you collect?

The thing I collect the most would have to be books. I have a ton of them and my husband says I should open a used book store I have so many.

I have been collecting dragons for some time now also! I love asian and english dragons. I also collect castles and other fantasy type items.

I don't collect nearly as many things as I used to. I do still collect recipes and angels... blank books when I see a great new design, but that's about it.

I don't really collect anything per se. I just tend to hoard stuff like a dragon.

That sounds like a very lucrative collection! Where do you end up finding
most of your Beatles items?

I collect records (50s-80s), cds, vintage posters (like art nouveau and 60s stuff), history books, B movie/cheesy horror/propaganda/school scare films, vintage dresses and accessories. Needless to say, my room looks pretty eclectic!

Because of christmas, i am now collecting chips... my husband is a huge fan of old tv including all the gerry anderson classics... (thunderbirds and the like)

actually, he was the one to start the collection and he bought the first one. but ever since changing jobs, he stopped his collection, and i have decided to continue it for him and present it to him as a christmas gift... (i hope he likes it)..


he loves it so much that he used the picture of one of his first chip as avatar for his myspace site .. at the moment, i still only have 3 but i am getting there....
