What do you collect?

I collect anything kitty cat. I have figures, clocks, lamps, stuffies, door stoppers, ornaments, blankies, EVERYTHING kitty cats. I have been collecting for around 4 years now. I have so many I cant count them all.
What do you collect? How many do you have of it, and what kinds of different categories do you have (like figures or lamps) ???

I collect wolf stuff. I have tons of it. You step into my room, and wolves are the first things you see.

I collect cat-figurines, soap animals, euro's from all EU-countries, cat mugs, cat magnets. :D

Cat figurines from around the world. Basically anything cat that attracts my attention.

my fiance collects cars :rolleyes: we have 5 right now and hes looking another one :rolleyes: personally, I don't think I collect anything? hmmm...

But, Maya&Inka's Mommy - I love those masks :):):) Their very cool

Too much! I have collected teddy bears for years, mostly Boyds now. I also started collecting lots of puppy and kitty stuff! ( like I need too, I have real ones :rolleyes: ) I keep swearing I'm done collecting! I'm waiting on a Boyds bearstone from ebay and see a Cherished Teddy in the Avon book I want! I swear, these are the last ones I'm buying! :p

Well, of coarse I have a collection of kitty stuff and every holiday that comes, it makes it easy to pick something for me. I have a daughter in law that gives me mostly cat related stuff every Christmas.

I also collect Jewel Tea (collectable dinnerware) and have a cabinet full of various pieces that include the set of my Mom's nesting bowls that I got when she died. I had admired those since I was a child. I also have some of her old pots and pans and have added pieces to those. Hammered aluminum that was sold door to door in the "old days".

I haven't really collected any of these things in awhile, but, I have a few collections that I've had for years....

spoons (pewter, mostly, but, they're from all over the world)
Eeyore
stuffed animals
little porcelain animals
Breyer horses



Now, I mostly just "collect" movies, books, and music. :)

I collect dog figures from thered rose tea, lighthouses, and carousils.

i collect....
dog collers and leashes
dog figurines

Bells, I have a couple hundred of them. I've been collecting those since I was a kid.

I also collect cow stuff, especially Mary Moo-Moo's and kitchen decor items. I don't buy it anymore, but I get tons of cow stuff as gifts! Drives my hubby nutty!

I'll admit, I love my clutter lol. Chicken figurines (in the kitchen), cat figurines (especially vintage ones), Victorian trade cards, and framed prints...I've picked up some gorgeous ones, and inherited a few more. :) Steiff animals (99% old ones...newer ones just aren't as special). Lately I've been accumulating old cat planters which I adore! Someday I'll put plants in them, and glue them to the windowsill, so they don't end up broken like everything else that belongs to the cats here! :rolleyes: I do need to thin out my treasures soon, but the more surface clutter, the less need to dust! ;) Oh yeah, I collect that too! :D
