I have that same turquoise bowl with the white farmers on it. And I have a couple of orange casseroles that were my moms. But that's it. You need to share your shop knowledge with me! ;)</p> <p>I had several pieces of milk glass until about a year ago when we decided to weed out a lot of our unnecessary stuff. I'll get away with the pyrex because it's more useful.</p> <p>I also really love depression glass! I have a set of drinking glasses that I love. I'd really like to get more, maybe a pitcher? I have these glasses: </p> [attach=2648/13/mrl7hj.498x282.glass.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-collect-anything-1#post-1020397 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 14:07:40 +0000 sunny 1020397@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to collect stickers and pencils as a kid. These days I seem to collect handbags and shoes though "collecting" isn't quite the right term since I don't "scout out" things to add to a collection. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-collect-anything-1#post-1020390 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 14:05:52 +0000 Dandelion 1020390@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coastmama: It's so much fun going in and specifically looking for them. I feel like I hit a jackpot when I do! lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-collect-anything-1#post-1020379 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 14:04:10 +0000 coastmama 1020379@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: That's awesome! I'm addicted, and I've gotten my mom addicted too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-collect-anything-1#post-1020301 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 13:50:21 +0000 Dandelion 1020301@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coastmama: You have inspired me! Since this thread, I've bought 2 vintage pyrex bowls at consignment stores. I do believe I am hooked. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-collect-anything-1#post-996014 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 10:44:01 +0000 Turd Ferguson 996014@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I totally had an awesome collection of "Got Milk?" ads back in the day... </p> <p>But yeah, I don't collect anything now. I have a crap-load of milk glass/vintage Mason jars and stuff from our wedding, but nothing that I'm actively seeking out to get more of. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-collect-anything-1#post-996005 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 10:42:26 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 996005@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Coffee mugs. The bigger, the better. DH gets me a mug every time he travels! I especially like the soup bowl ones. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-collect-anything-1#post-995961 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 10:28:37 +0000 anonysquire 995961@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Vintage suitcases, cats and green glass. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-collect-anything-1#post-995917 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 10:20:32 +0000 lindseykaye 995917@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsTiz: I collect milk glass, too! Your collection looks beautiful and I love how you displayed it. We just moved and I am excited to be able to put ours out once I unearth the box it's all packed in :)<br /> Maybe I'll come back and post to share once I do...</p> <p>I was a big collector growing up and still am now - porcelain dolls, tiny ceramic animals, sea glass, sharks teeth/shells. I've held onto the sea glass collection and continue to add to it. My mom has most of my other things at their house. Along with my milk glass now I also have some vintage pyrex (the aqua/white snowflake design is my special holiday bakewear and serving set - I see your piece @coastmama!), vintage olive green glass, antique microscopes... too many things! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-collect-anything-1#post-995858 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 10:05:36 +0000 lovehoneybee 995858@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runnerd: Me too! She used to have a horrible kitchen and kept planning on redoing it after her divorce from my stepbrother was finalized (still waiting) but then one of her daughters dropped a Le Creuset pot and shattered her glasstop stove so she took the opportunity to redo it all and it.is.awesome. </p> <p>I realized last night I totally collect coffee mugs. We have about 20, not including the ones that came with our dinner set, for just two of us! I just bought hubs another one for his birthday and he'll probably make me get rid of an old one :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-collect-anything-1#post-995804 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 09:52:59 +0000 pui 995804@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't really collect anything anymore. My DH collects alcohol lol, his bar his HUGE! Mostly Whiskeys and Scotches. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-collect-anything-1#post-995798 Wed, 07 Aug 2013 09:51:31 +0000 mlm2934 995798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FutureMrsMcK: love SIL's kitchen!!</p> <p>I don't collect anything, but now I totally want to :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-collect-anything-1#post-988871 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 20:29:28 +0000 coastmama 988871@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: I mostly find them at little antique shops. I grew up in a really small town, and somehow they haven't gotten the memo that vintage Pyrex is a "thing" so it's always reasonably priced!! I cook in some of it and use them as serving dishes when we have company. </p> <p>@MrsTiz: I :heart: milk glass. I have a few pieces.... and LOVE your collection! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-collect-anything-1#post-988637 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 17:38:14 +0000 MrsH 988637@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coastmama: I love those nested Pyrex bowls! I have an old pink and white set :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-collect-anything-1#post-988629 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 17:33:14 +0000 MrsTiz 988629@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I collect milk glass (don't mind my messy kitchen!) there are 9 more pieces on the other wall of cabinets but the light is weird so you can't tell in the picture </p> [attach=2456/13/mr12nf.600x450.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-collect-anything-1#post-988623 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 17:29:01 +0000 Smurfette 988623@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I collected Precious Moments when I was younger.

I love vintage Pyrex! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-collect-anything-1#post-988607 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 17:16:30 +0000 Dandelion 988607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's cool! Where do you find your pieces? Do you use them also?</p> <p>I think I collect craft supplies, too, lol. Actually, mostly paper.</p> <p>I want to start collecting fiestaware, though. I've been looking at thrift stores and yard sales. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-collect-anything-1#post-988588 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 16:57:47 +0000 Mrs. Grizzly Bear 988588@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coastmama: if you need inspiration on how to use some of it up, might I suggest Pinterest or Swap-Bot. They're a great way to find ways to use old craft items! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-collect-anything-1#post-988583 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 16:54:59 +0000 coastmama 988583@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NaturallyCathy: I hear you on the craft supplies. I was a teacher before LO was born so I have boxes of supplies. It drives DH crazy... but hey! You never know what you're gonna need in a moments notice... right? :) Old books are so beautiful! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-collect-anything-1#post-988577 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 16:51:16 +0000 Mrs. Grizzly Bear 988577@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I collect craft supplies it seems. But I also collect old or interesting books, children's books, owl items, would like to collect more mugs but I don't have the space! I also love bees and butterflies, blue green glass (old bottles), hexagons, and cool color palettes </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-collect-anything-1#post-988569 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 16:42:06 +0000 coastmama 988569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just recently moved, and I was just able to display my vintage Pyrex collection. I just pick up a piece here and there. Made me wonder what you all collect, if anything. Do you collect anything?</p> <p>And yes, after I posted this I noticed that there was another thread about this about a year back. Fail..... oh well. Share again if you want.</p> <p>[attach=3949/13/mr10a9.400x600.IMG_3708.JPG] </p>
