I do this all the time. I think "Oh, that's cute, I have one of those already but if I have TWO or more, then it's a collection!" And then I stop my hoarding self and remind myself that I probably don't need them for many reasons. Usually

- I can't afford to collect that many of them
- I don't have a place to display them properly
- I don't want to have to dust them constantly
- I'm afraid the kids will break/damage/ruin them

Right now I'm lusting after the vintage stamps celebrating the Barnum and Bailey circus. Strange thing is I have a fear (and hatred, honestly) of all things clown but I -want- these vintage inspired poster stamps!

What about you? Where do your hoarding tendencies come out to play?
