Collections. What do you collect?
I collect Beanie Babies, Beanie Kids and their clothing, Books about Scottish history, and Myth and Magic ornaments. I also hoard craft items. My Favourite beanies are in two glass display cabinets and dotted around the bookcases. My myth and Magics also live on the bookcases with the books. My hoard sprawls over the living room, the big hall cupboard, the shed and there is even some in the bedroom.
What do you collect and how do you display them (if you do)?
Re: Collections. What do you collect?
Vintage books and jewelry mostly, jewelry is easy to store in plastic totes with anti moisture strips, books are a bit harder, they tend to be all over the place, need to buy more bookshelves. :)
Best wishes for many sales to all,

Teddy Bears, though since the house move, most of them are in boxes and I will give some away. I don't have any rare or expensive ones. I just like them, and any I make are like my children - I hate to part with them.
I seem to be collecting yarn and fabric and recently card and paper and whatever might be useful for making greeting cards

Thats a good collection Moonie. At our old house we had lots living in the midst of fields, but thankfully in the new house my collection of dust is minimal and my spider collection is non existant

I have a collection of rock/mineral/gem samples. Some of the gems are cut and polished, others are in their natural state attached to rock still like the one Amethyst sample I have. Also have 2 samples of Geode, one rather large and cut sample of Geode and the other is whole but small and cracked in half so you can see the crystalline structure inside.
I'm a huge Yoda fan so I have various pictures and statues of Yoda as well as some Yoda action figures and some Yoda Cuddly toys which one of them says phrases. Will be adding a 26" tall Yoda plush to my collection when it is finally released which I think will be life size for him lol.
Got some Orangutan cuddly toys as well. Most I have bought from the Orangutan Foundation.
