Sometimes I felt like we're alone. I collect mini perfume bottles. My DH is totally into vintage Polish posters. We are so strange. :(
 
Weird? I'm not sure that I think it's weird, but others might. I collect celebrity autographs. What IS weird, however, is that every wall of my basement is covered in celebrity autographs. People tend to notice that. :D
 
I collect dust. does that count?;) :p
 
My father collects deviled egg plates. :eek: No kidding! He actually has some really cool ones. :p

I collect teddy bears??? That's kinda weird. It takes up a lot of room too. :eek:

I don't think collecting miniature perfume bottles is so weird! I like that idea. :) :)

I like the idea of collecting sealing wax stamps. :eek: I think that would be a cool thing to collect. :teeth: I also like the idea of collecting the little toggles that were traditionally used on the ties of Japanese robes. They are so cool! They come in all different sizes, shapes, characters, animals etc. I like them a lot. :teeth:

I guess I like weird collectables. :) :) :)
 

Mine isn't weird as I collect disney and baseball pins and other disney and basball memorabila .

My mom collects andything having to do with Goofy which isn't weird but Just plain Goofy:p

Now my dad on the other hand to most it would seem weird but to me its not he collects bus and trolley memorabila-schedules, maps, photos, models,signs, his latest piece is a sign that was in a bus terminal in Nashua NH probably back in the 70's and came with all the letters.
Instead of being a train buff, we call him a Bus Nut! :eek:
 
I used to have a seal, Saffron. That <b>does</b> sound like a neat thing to collect.

I don't really collect anything, but If I could find something with Daisy Duck on it I would consider buying it
 
I collect bird nests. Not real ones but ones that look like real ones. Don't know of many people who collect them.
 
I used to collect: coffee mugs; cookie cutters; candle holders; anything to do with lighthouses; anything to do with wolves; and cookbooks..

But - I got carried away, the house got too cluttered, and now I'm getting rid of most everything.. :(

Sure was fun while it lasted though!! :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc
 
The only thing I collect is Disney license plates, which I don't think is too weird. There are over 400 official known license plates...I still have a long way to go. :( Hey if any of you want to buy me any christmas presents I could PM you some links to Ebay auctions with plates I still want/need? Pretty please with sugar on top! :smooth:

My SO's grandfather collects old oil lanterns, that isn't something you see everyday.
 
I would love to collect something unique, but I'm very anti-clutter. We hardly have any knick-knacks or anything because I prefer a simple look. Every once in a while I'll start thinking I want to collect something, but then I realize that I'd just give it all to Goodwill after a few months when I had my next big cleaning spree.
 
I collect "Band-Aids" (and other brands)

Did you see the exhibit of those at Japan in Epcot? They were pretty neat. I can't remember what they're called, of course.

Kermit, I admire a person who is clutter-free. :)
 
Mini perfume bottles isn't weird.

Postcards, swizzle sticks, drink coasters, souvenir matches, magnets, dolls, souvenir teatowels, jigsaws
