I organized all of my pins last night, all 204 of them I have some great new ones to trade! I find that over the years my collections has changed a lot. While I am getting ride of my Stitch, Figment, and Princess Pins - I am going back to the Fab5 and other types of pins. It is crazy how your mind changes!

I used felt sheets and glued them to page protectors. I then put them in a 3 ring binder. I will take pictures tonight!

It cost $4 for the binder, $2 for the pages, and $2 for the felt.

They look great

I use the stiff felty like pages they sell at the parks and put them in binders too. The big presentation binders that Costco sells in the multipacks.
I now have over 1000 pins
Likes do seem to change, don't they?


The exchange is looking good, but more people are always welcome.

 

[Jessica527]

The number of pins is nuts, especially when everyone knows how much you love them and brings some home for you from their Disney trip.

I can't wait to start the exchange, I wish I had the list now haha

 

[Jessica527]

I just got these two off eBay, of course they are not like the ones you will get in this exchange, but i like them.

Yea, I thought 40 was a lot. Then we go tot 100, then 150, now 200+. Who knows what will happen when we go for our honeymoon in May!

My addiction began when the World of Disney store was giving away pins several years ago. There was a coupon on the back of a magazine that we picked up where we were staying (offsite at the time) and we picked up several of those and went to the World of Disney store every day!
Fun! Fun! Good times!

That is great! I wish I got a free pin


I spent last night organizing my collection more, I realized I have accumulated a variety of pins that don't really fit together in a collection. While I do have my Fab 5- Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, and Pluto section...I also have some Figment, Winnie the Pooh, Stitch, Princess, Muppets, and others that just haven't fit together yet. I will work on that when I go on my honeymoon, let the trading begin!

 

[Meriweather]

Today is the last day for sign-ups......names will go out this afternoon

 

[Meriweather]

sign-ups are now closed.....names going out. DIS is running slow, so it might take a bit.

If you get the same person more than once or people in the same family, please go ahead and mail in the same envelope. Just make sure they know which pins are for who
