Do you collect anything "wierd"?

[RUDisney]

Cindy, your DH's birds are exactly representative of the reason that we collect them! They are beautiful!!! You have every right to be proud of him!

Is that a stellar jay above the owl?

The quail fighting is my favorite piece. He is very talented! I can't wait to show his website to my DH.

I guess mine isn't really weird unless you ask my DH---I collect Anchor Hocking American Prescut pieces(some people call it the Star of David pattern)

My mom had 2 pieces she was going to get rid of so I took them--Did not know that years later I'd still be hunting down pieces--And that I would not have a complete set! LOL! I search in second hand stores mainly and every once in a while my MIL will send a package with pieces she has found. I've looked on ebay but the prices are ridiculous,for some reason people think this glass is worth more than it is! I guess they don't realize that it was mass produced for over 30 years!!!!

I collect Wilton cake pans. I have about 200 cake pans in my basement right now. I haven't made a character cake in the longest time, but I still buy them.

Bad thing is storing them. They take up alot of room, I have about 7 big computer boxes full of them.

I collect Scottish Terrier items. I have figurines, stuffed animals, cast iron door stops, planters, pajamas and pins. Love anything with my Scotties.

For Disney collectibles, hubby focuses on the ducks, and I collect the dogs, especially Lady and the Tramp items.

giraffes

 

[Chattyaholic]

Photographs of old, abandoned houses and barns in severe disrepair (especially black & white photos).

Also, photographs of unusual/beautiful gravestones - even if I don't know the people.

Not really weird--I collect Disney snowglobes and giraffes.

I collect piggy banks. I put all my coins in them with each one having a specific type of coin that goes in them (less sorting). I particularly like the kinda naughty ones.

I also collect rolling pins. I just can't leave them at a garage sale. So I bring them home with me. My mom says I run a retirement home for rolling pins. I just love how they are all a little different and have over 40 now.

I collect things shaped like hands. DH asked me to confine them to the kitchen and so I try to make them functional. I have a 'thumbs up' that holds my keys, and a glove mold to hold sponges, for example.

That's weird? I thought everyone collected those.


I collect interesting wine bottles (I empty them first. ), Disney magnets, tea pots shaped as things, and cow figurines.

 

[wdwgirl03]

My DW and I collect Penguins - plush penguins, ceramic penguins, pictures/paintings of penguins, movies with penguins in them, ovenmits with penguins, christmas lights shaped like penguins... you get the idea. So far we have over 200+ penguin items with only one duplicate (a gift from family a few Christmases ago of one we already have... so now they are a couple, haha)

Oooh, I like penguins!!

I collect vintage Crayola crayons. I've got a whole boxful- people sent them for free when I posted in a magazine I was looking for them.

I have a collection of donkeys, a hold over from my days as a Young Democrat.
While working at our local museum, I started to collect antique bonnets and antique underwear. I use them to give a presentation on the History of Underwear which is a big hit at service organization, church lady, etc... meetings.
