What kinds of stuff do you collect? I collect harmonicas, stuffed animals and plastic animal figurines, the fortunes from fortune cookies, and seashells. I have a huge Beany Baby collection in my atic and when I was little I collected erasers.
I collect, or should I say collected, tapes and CD's mostly. I've kind of slowed down on both now. Now I sort of collect good web sites, peoples' IM contacts, lol!!! Um ... I used to collect rocks, shells and other stuff I found at school or outside when I was younger. I also used to collect bouncy balls. Caitlin
I still have a huge collection of mix tapes I made from stuff on the radio when I was in seventh and eighth grade.
Ahahaha i must have liek thousands of tapes. It's horrible!!! Lol!!!...My mom wants to put them in storage, because they're just taking up room around the house. Caitlin
i collect crystal animals - nothing too tacky though - swarofski only, lol. I also used to collect spoons - ya know the sort you get from suvineer shops in all different parts of the world
Ooh I collected some spoons too, I only had like three though but i intended to start a collection. And I also collected coins for awhile. Caitlin
Also soaps from hotels from anywhere we vacationed. Caitlin
I collect my brother's gruesome gargoyles,dragons and assorted Goblins,which are derived from people he's come across while wandering about in Glasgow. Also interesting rocks from climbs I also have lava from Etna and Vesuvius which is incredibly tactile but my prized possession are pieces of K2 and the Eiger, in terms of personal value they are priceless.
Nifty, Gob! Lava rocks are awesomeness, I have some too. Caitlin
smile.where is it from I find it hard to get over the fact that its millions of years old...
I actually cannot recall where it's from, a friend gave it to me and I don't remember where she got it. It's got the most peculiar feel to it though, and I love how it' so ancient!!! Caitlin
Well, I collect CDs and now DVDs, although it used to be stuff on VHS tape. I collect old-time radio shows on mp3 CDs, but it used to be cassettes and records before that. I collect novelty radios and also talking clocks and watches. Oh, and I collect sound effects CDs too.
well i collect cd's, pics (both digital and nondigital before i go blind), writings, um like caitcait said contacts i have like 45 speaking of which i need to delete some, i collect... i collect just weird stuff like little coins and stuff and i have em all in a box... after the end of fifth grade i started collecting replicas of my past bc i was sad from moving, i still do it but with diff. stuff... i collect memories in my head, i swear i have like the memory of an elephant! lollol!...
Well since 1995, I've been a collecter of vinyl records, and let me tell ya, my collection is huge, and still growing, and most of them ultimatly make it on to cd, so it preserves the life of these rare lp's, because once they're gone, they're gone, they can't ever be replaced.
I used to collect rocks balls and other things of that sort. I also had a huge hairball (well not so huge) of hairs I got from the barber shop that he cut off but that's sort of been forgotten and stuffed into one of my old baby shoes. I also collect special tissues, and if you're sick like I you can guess why they are special; I don't really collect them, just I'm in a crazy mood so i thought I would mention something totally pointless and weird like specail tissues. Yeah?

I have a rather large collection of keychains, and i used to be very into beanie babies as well. I also collect little porcelain/crystal animals. When i was little, i used to love collections. rocks, shells, pogs (remember those things?)...I have a lot of tapes, too.
Aw pogs! Yeah I remember them. They were these little peices of cardboard with pictures on them that you played around with a slammer. Totally pointless, but they were the rage of second grade so I just had to have them. That fad died out in, like, two months or so.
when I was younger I use to collect porsolen dolls, I have about 10, but they're all back at my mum's place, and I think my little sister has claimed them for her own now. I collect masks too, like jesters and things. much more interesting to hang round the house than paintings and pictures.
two major collections to speak of here. one is letter openers, I collect them, some are ornate and look like they're worth more than they actually are, some are not so ornate, and are worth more than they look. I have a solid silver one, and that's the heaviest in my collection. I also have one that looks like something you'd see King arthour using. *grin* the other collection, well documented on this website, is my collection of soft toy animals. now they are all over the place, on my bed, on my chairs, standing on the floor, everywhere! the only places in my house you will not see soft toy animals is my kitchen, bathroom and main hallway.! Just to give you an example of what I have, I've got a leopard, three otters, and a labradore dog in my study with me. there are plenty more in my bedroom and in my living room.
I used to collect rocks, shells, and dolls, but that was only for a short time. Now I like collecting coins, articles and books about or involving medical conditions, disability-related news, glossaries of medical terminology, glossaries for words/phrases in diferent languages, and glossaries of slang from different countries. I also have a small collection of stuffed animals and figurines of dogs and Pikachu, anything that feels interesting, such as differently textured fabric and paper and other small nicknacks; I always think I will make something with them, but I never get around to it, but I still like going thru them once in awhile. *smiles* (also, about the figurines, I like the porcelain ones because they are more detailed, and for now I have a small mouse and some fairies, and might get other figurines sometime.)

hey all sounds like everyone collects some interesting things. Hmm, I collect precious moments figurines you know the little boy and girl doing different things and has different poems wrote on them. I also colected porcelin dolls and stuffed animals when i was younger. I also collect well i don't know if you would call it collect but i have different themes in each room of my apartment my living room is done in americana, my bathroom is in the celestrial moons stars and suns, my kitchen is in sunflowers and crows, and my bedroom is in safari! Oh and my halway has pictures of my friends and famly. smile angel-
I might go find some more letter openers soon.
I forgot and may the ghost of Signore Ferrari haunt me for being so remiss!.
...I have a collection of Ferrari models, modern and classic they are dusted, polished and lusted after, and well out of Louis' reach..grin

Letter openers and model cars. We sure do have some interesting collections.
I don't collect anything but I once collected - names. Names from any country in the world, mostly girls names. I still know a few but I gave it up. It's hard to keep a collection going and growing I think.
The only thing I really collect if you like, is perfumes. I have so many that I never run out because I have so many, i don't use an individual one up for ever. borring, but yeh.....
I collect pottery recipes and cookbooks. I also have a fair amount of celtic jewelry.
collecting parfumes is good, I had a friend who did that. I have three now or for. Oh, I forgot to mention that I still collect - stones. Not normal stones but stones that are smoot and feel good in the hand. I like that type of stuff sometimes but I'm not doing it very often.
Oh yes yes! Dolls and beanie babies and key chains ... I was into that for awhile too. Ajd James, what the heck? Lol!
Keychains, coins, and old radio shows. Never collected the old radio shows on record, since that was before my time, but have collected them on cassette and now in mp3 format. I also have quite a collection of world war II radio broadcasts. U know, news broadcasts and such. My mp3 collection is now well over a gig for those wwii broadcasts, and have lots of old radio shows in general. Anyone with mp3 radio collections want to swap?
