I collect; antiques, bottle caps, sea shells, feathers, stamps, coins, pressed flowers (part of my herbarium), old currency bills (ex: $2), snail shells, cacoons. I think that's everything. I use to collect older GE radios, but they kinda take up alot of space :D.

I collect charity pin badges and nature books. My b/f collects fridge magnets.....I think it's a bit sad. Collecting pin badges is not remotely geeky of course..... ;-)

I was cleaning my room (ugh) and saw some other stuff I collect. Model cars, marbles, stickers, other collectibles like trinquet boxes and thimbles. I have a 1901 indian head penny and a game called "Sniff" from the 1880's (can't find any info on it though). A spelling game called "Hearts" from 1904. Oh yeah, my sis and I collect paper model airplanes that you build.

I was cleaning my room (ugh)Eh, I know how you feel. It's as if in my room I have a collection of clutter. Right now we're doing a major clean-up of my house, and we started with a decently large closet that we haven't used in like years. Thankfully, no bugs in there, but it's SO dusty. My allergies are beginning to take action...

I have something like a hammock that is hooked to the ceiling of my bedroom, but you can't really see all the beanies. I am going to get shelves for them. Eventually.

I collect anything to do with unicorns and horses. I have a large shelving system dedicated to all the ornaments of unicorns and horsey statues that I have. Also love carousel horses :) And lots of rattie and snake stuff, also being among my favourite animals!

I was wondering if anyone has heard of "Buddy Boy" jewelry. Cause I found this keychain (looks more like a pocket watch chain) at a thrift store and it still had the paper slip with it. From the pic on it, it looks like it's from the late 50's early 60's. I tried looking on the net, but didn't find anything. On one end it has a little elephant that looks sorta like Dumbo, it has a little hat. It's gold plated and about 8" long.

Let's see, when I was little I collected unicorns and kittens (not real ones!) And unless something got broken along the way, i still have all of it... it's mostly in boxes, but it's still around.

Now I collect things that have to do with my animals. For Angel, obviously Angels. But, it's Angel Rose, so roses. She's a husky so, husky/wolf things.

Brenna, they're hard to find, but black german shepherd figures. Her nickname is Bear, so, bears. Also, her name is a celtic name meaning "little Raven" so, celtic knotwork (also because I have a lot of ancestory from celtic nations) and Ravens.

For Carma and Nadia, I've started collecting cats again....haven't found anything yet specifically for them other than birthstones or colors for the stones (amethyst and blue topaz)

Combine the two dogs and I REALLY like finding teddy bears with angel wings. I also found one that was a teddy bear holding a rose. Also, a teddy bear with angel wings with purple tinting, to combine Carma with them. Plus, I actually made a necklace out of three charms so I have something for all of them on me at all times.

Wow, sorry so long! I guess I collect way too much!

LOL, can you believe I forgot something??
Picture frames... I love photography and you have to have frames and albums to put your pictures in.... of course a decent amount of them have to do with the dogs... Angel frames, bear frames, wolf frames, etc.

Plus things with dog sayings, for example the pillow I can see from here that says "Never trust anyone who doesn't like dogs"

Lol! No. I actually use to collect bugs (I know, gross) now that's scarry. I guess you could say I collect stuffed animals (toys). Oh, I use to collect the little aliens you can get out of 25cent machines and anything to do with teddy bears. I just can't think of anymore. :D

I don't try to collect them, but I have at least 15 teddies, so I guess you could say I collect those, but mainly beanie babies. My favorite one is a moose. I think his name is Zeus. Wow, those people are good at rhyming without the owners knowing.

What exactly is that? Whatever it is, it would go great in my house! LOL. Aside from me with the wolf and bear things, my brother collects eagles.... and dragons. Neither of us have collectables with all three on them like that, but I do have a t-shirt with all of them.

O'sioy Rose. This is a picture of my drum I made a few years ago. A shaman painted my totem animals on for me just the other month. The drum itself is made from elk hide and sinew. I have it sitting on a piece of deerskin. :)

LOL, I was just looking at your profile... don't take this the wrong way, but I find it amusing that you're Ojibwey... I was trying to get my mom to name one of her kittens that. All her current animals (and one past) have been named after Native American tribes. Her husky is Apache, her golden retriever is Kiowa, her cat that she had to euthanize was Iroquois, and her two kittens are Blackhawk and Lakota. She really liked Ojibwey, she just didn't know what she could shorten it to to have it sound alright.

:smiley: Have the 'official' name Ojibwey, but call her/him Jibby for short? :D Or Boozhens - Ojibwey for Cat. ;)

Yeah, we were thinking Oji, but my mom really liked Lakota, and one of them is black so my dad chose Blackhawk for him. Thanks for the suggestion though, I'll have to write it down and keep it for if she ever gets another one... what's the word for dog?
