Dont start collecting! Save yourself whilst you still can.
At first, you think its the stuff you're collecting thats eating all your money...
Then you realise you need a bigger house.
I pin trade, have magnets, have ALL the mugs from the resorts we've stayed at and the disney on ice mugs from since I was about 7, the antenae toppers, the mobile phone cases, various bits of jewellery, possibly every grumpy themed notepad disney has ever made, and a rather large amount of T-shirts and handbags. I have a lot of the kitchen stuff and actually use most of it, so I suppose that one isnt really taking up excess space.
Moral of the story is definitely dont let us ALL talk you into our collections or you wont be able to move in your house for tripping over Disney mugs. If you do start one, try to keep it restricted to a small area of Disneyana (one character etc) or try not to view it as a collection, but rather a selection of things you enjoy so you can make sure youre only getting things *** you really like the individual item, and not *** it fits well with your collection.
Also beware of letting other people know you collect unless you want them to start adding to it too.
