I use to say no then remembered that I guess I do! 
I collect Starbucks gifts cards - a long time ago I planned to make a big frame from them but doubt I ever will - they just have such neat ones.
Picked up this one today
Yes, I am weird!
You might also enjoy...
-
Cute! I've seen people put the holders from Starbucks into shadow boxes.
Do books count? I have a lot of books.
-
Vintage cameras, jadite glass, Starbucks coffee mugs.
M collects an Irish pattern of Spode, beer steins, books.
-
@MrsH: hahaha I think I collect books too.... nothing else.
Although, my husband collects Spawn Figures... They take up the majority of our basement storage. In box. Mint condition. He's pretty serious about it. (He collects other figures too, but not as seriously. We had scarface, in packaging, hanging on the wall beside our bed for the entire time we dated....)
-
I horde, I mean collect, old books.
Also, vintage Disney vinyl records – our downstairs bathroom is decorated with them. And Limoges (and Limoges-style) boxes. I guess I also sort of collect vintage china pieces - I'm only interested in serving bowls and serving platters though, and am not loyal to any brand/line/pattern.
-
@yoursilverlining: oooooh. I have a book you'd be interested in. It's called The Butterfly Ward by Margaret Gibson. A novel of 6 short stories. It was entertaining when I read it (been a long time). I believe it's out of print now and copies are hard to find!
ETA: or maybe not. I saw vintage and linked that with books before I ready Disney. MY BAD.
-
magnets from every place I visit/go on vacation/travel to.
-
I collect fox stuff. Pretty much anything, clothes, jewelry, housewares, kitchen utensils, toys, etc.
-
Victoria's Secret underwear.
This started when I was 14 or so? They have that 5 for $27 (used to be $25
) deal and every time I went shopping I would pick up 5 new pairs. Even after throwing out some out over the years I have about 150 pairs?Please don't do the math for me. Haha. It's a 10 year long collection and I haven't bought any in 2 years though.
I can't fit into them now because I'm definitely not the size I was when I bought them, but I couldn't bring myself to throw them away. They're stored in a bin under the bed.
-
Dog hair...... I'm not fun enough to collect awesome things. Just piles of dog hair that collect around my house and I try to get rid of
-
@prettylizy: Hey me too! We should compare collections sometime.
-
@Danizaur:
I love them too but when I open a new pair I throw out an old one!
-
@yoursilverlining: I am the same way with old china pieces...I don't care much about the plates, but I looove the teapots/teacups/saucers and gravy boats. Lord knows when I'll ever need 30 gravy boats, but whatever...
I've also loved milk glass ever since my grandma gave me an old bowl when I was 10 or so
One of my favorite wedding gifts was an absolutely gorgeous milk glass punch bowl, stand, and 30 (!) cups that my BFF's mom found in an antique store. Between that and my gravy boats I have a LOT of entertaining that needs to happen, HA!
-
@.twist.: oooh, I'll google it. I love books of all sorts.
@MediaNaranja: An over-abundance of gravy boats sounds like a party!
We can load my serving trays with biscuits and use your boats for gravy dipping!
-
@yoursilverlining: Now that sounds like an epic party. Biscuits and gravy on fancy platters for everyone!!
-
@Mamaof2: DH and I started collecting Christmas ornaments on our travels. I love us, so many unique ornaments with loaded memories, and Christmas is my favourite day of the year!
-
I'm wanting to collect those willow tree figures, but I don't want a huge collection. In high school it was key chains and I still love them, such an inexpensive tourist item.
-
@WinterBee: we do this too! I love our tree and all the memories. Plus it's easier to buy souvenirs when we have a good focus
-
We get a Christmas ornament every time we travel. Not sure if that counts as a collection
-
@Mamaof2: do boots and shoes count?
I love manitobah mukluks and have more than I *need*. I also have more hand dyed yarn than I need but I can't pass up a pretty skein.
) deal and every time I went shopping I would pick up 5 new pairs. Even after throwing out some out over the years I have about 150 pairs?
I love them too but when I open a new pair I throw out an old one!
