    critters?! j/k

    books-I love books...paperback collection is around 1000 and slowly working my way into the hundreds for hardbacks

    unique pewter figurines...mostly dragons, but really anything unique...my favorite is a pewter dragon wearing a gas mask holding a sign that says No Smoking

    pennies-every few years I'll cash them all in, usually about $30 to $40

    Cat ornaments. All kinds. I have bookcase full of cats, ceramics, cloth, you name it.

    It's a dusting nightmare I'm sorry I started it and now I can't stop.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    My clothes collect pet hair..does that count?!

    Bunnies! Bunnies! Bunnies!
    I esp. love Michel & Co's Beatrix Potter stuff. VERY cute!

    I haven't added to this in quite awhile but...
    When I was little I started a "Whisker Box." It was just a small rectangular coffee can that I decorated with stickers. If I found a cat whisker or (in the case of Tinker) a baby tooth, I'd glue/tape it to a piece of paper, label it, and place it in the can.

    Growing up, I collected coins and some stamps. I am still collecting coins. I go through my change before I spend it.

    You might say I am collecting transport miles, too. After this weekend, the total should be over 2500 this year.

    I collect a lot of things, well some things I've stopped collecting but I still have my collections. I used to collect beanie babies, I have a lot of those but now that I'm in school I don't really have the money to buy them anymore. Sometimes my mom will still send me some in the mail. I also have a collection of pokemon toys, stuffed animals (mostly monkeys), and star trek toys.

    I used to collect teddy bears, dolls and
    figurines.
    Of course anything Akita re-lated.

    I still have some toys from when I was a kid
    like Troll dolls, rubber animals, and I still have my model horses too.
    When I go camping, I always bring back a couple of small
    Rocks, and shells (if I can find them) and
    place them in my back yard. (of course I can never
    remember where I got it from) lol

    Yes I have always loved wolves and have a large collection of wolf items, books, paintings, etc... I am planning on getting a wolf tattoo someday soon also.
    I also collect candles & candle holders & incense & incense holders. As well as picture frames (although I'm running out of room for all of them ...)
    Whenever I go on a vacation or road trip somewhere I always pick up a beanie baby where ever we stop, so I have a little collection of them too
