Does anybody else out there collect stuff? I am interested in seeing what kind of things people collect.
I collect Snowman figurines and Willow Tree Figurines.

I used to collect comic books and coins but I haven't collected either for quite a long time now. Is collecting dust acceptable?

I'm glad. I was beginning to wonder if I sat in front of the computer to much as I'm now looking like a ghost with all the dust on me.

I don't collect anything. My daughter, however, collects collections. She will collect anything - most of it should be in the garbage. But then she will keep it in a shoebox or plastic bag or tupperware or in a pile on her floor...and call it her collection. I believe she has a hundred of such collections, which is quite a collection.

I collect Porcelin Dolls. . .though they are collecting dust too. *Sighs* I need to figure out what to do with them while I'm gone at school. . .
I also collect stuffed animals, aka Stuffies. . .I'm trying to get a stuffed animal zoo. . .I'm doing a pretty good job so far. . .just wish the bear population wouldn't grow so much until I get another one of most things. . .
Oh, and I also love to collect faerie and dolphin figurines and anything to do with Eeyore. . .even if Disney put him on prozac. . .

I collect Coca Cola bottles with special labels. I also started collecting some Coca Cola memorabilia. It wasn't much but one day I got a Coca Cola Monopoly game. Now I'm collecting special edition Monopoly games. Currently I am also collecting all of the new quarters.
I used to collect all kinds of things. One of the weirdest however was rubber bands. I wanted to see how long I could make a string of rubber bands if I tied them together. I got it to over 35ft without stretching them. I showed it to a few people and one day someone asked me how long it would be if I stretched it out. It got to over 60 ft before it broke. I tried to fix it, but I stopped collecting rubber bands not long after that.

I collect action figures, and books, I have a small collection of porcelain dolls but they are packed away somewhere. My dad recently had me put most of my action figures in storage, and now i can at least use the top of my closet. Like any good seamstress i have an ever growing collection of material and scraps. I also have a small collection of Magic the Gathering cards, and I am building up a collection of Johnny Depp stuff.
My mom had a dead bug collection when i was a kid, that foot locker never smelled the same. And she used to have a whole bunch of old sewing machines. Now, i don't know what she collects.
My grandmother collects stuffed animals and Lord of the Rings stuff, and she likes to mainly commender my old teddy bears, I want little bear back!
My dad collects bears and music and cameras. And Marilyn Monro.

I'm being forced to deport many of mine to the basement- my closet shelves were commandeered for clothing after Mom took my dressers away.
