sand from all over the world & angels, although I haven't bothered with either in a while now.

Whenever I know someone is going somewhere I haven't been I ask them to bring me back sand.

How do you display your things? Right now I only have a few tea for ones out, I'll display them in the kitchen when we move.

Re: What do you collect?

I'm a collector of too many things....
angels, teapots(mostly my Grandmas), china, victorian postcards, Hummels(all my Grandmothers-over 100!!!!!), Lenox, old family photos, antique dolls, snowmen, starting to collect antique & period furniture, milk glass, colored depression glass, silver serving pieces, vintage crystal...............
Rich says it's time to have a yard sale, our attic is completely packed with tons of other 'crap'.
My teapots & crystal are in a display piece, some of my Lenox is around the house, the dolls are in Nicole's room, Snowmen are in my kitchen for another week or so.
I guess I take after my Gram, when she died she left me all of her collections-now I just need a BIGGER HOUSE!

magnets

my mother collects tea pots...and salt & pepper shakers...and sammlntaschen (german dishes)...and knickknacks...

for this reason...I try not to get anything that takes up room...

I went to las vegas and bought magnets for my co-workers...I bought one extra for myself...so now I collect magnets from cities...I buy them in the airport (usually) and when people go away...they don't have to worry about getting me anything...

and they don't take up any room

I also have way too many books...you could probably call it a collection
