Collections

[bigmamma]

Hi , do you have a collection of anything ? It may be something you have avidly collected over the years , or maybe been given as presents . If so , is your collection out on display or hidden in the garage or attic ? :-)

Hi bigmamma
I have collected Edinburgh Chrystal for years. Every piece of it is lying in a kitchen cupboard.
After I got rid of my wall unit when we moved house,that is where it stays now. Shame really.
Guess I will have to wait until wall units are fashionable again. lol

Hi bigmamma take it you are now out if the dungeon and youve lost your green and the number 1.

The only thing that I collect is ex girlfriends but think that lippyduck has cured that now god dam her.

McDonald happy meal toys still in the wrappers, I've got hundreds of them in bags in the cellar. It started off when the kids got doublers and has been going on for years now. I was thinking of giving them to a hospice or something.

I also have a bit of a thing for tinkerbell that you may have noticed on my myspace page. :-)

Porcelain dolls is my thing,not the cheap tatty ones you see in the shops but the mail order ones that cost over �100.00 generally. They aren't on show at the minute as we are planning on shelving the alcoves in the lounge to display them and other stuff.

[bigmamma]

Cruella , that is lovely , you will have to get it out again at some time :-) x
Knobby , hi, yes I am back to normal , knobbynonut was in the dungeon but he does make some odd noises ...think he called it singing.....lol...

I collect dolls ~ not the big scary baby dolls, but fashion dolls from the 1970's..not Sindy or Barbie though!

Mr P has an extensive Action Man collection...and teaspoons. Our collections are on display in cabinets and are real conversation starters :o)

It�s a rather bizarre thing, but I�ve collected metal airline wings from airlines all my life. It started as a child and it just continued. I�ve framed many of them, but some remain in a box�until the day I lay them out in the format I like. I do have some other things I�ve collected�it�s all a bit eclectic�I have over 300 framed items in the vicarage, a collection of old railway timetables, menus from the ships I�ve sailed on from my childhood, ranging from the SS France to the QM1, and I have a large collection of unusual religious art. I�m torn between my favourites in that depart ment�it�s either the Islamic art, or the Judaic Art..but then I have a pair of Cappuccino monks�who always look as if they�re quietly talking about me�I�ve set them next to �Boo Bee� my Swedish Angel with the size �42 long� breasts�she�s hilarious..Isn�t it funny the things we collect? And if I ever get around to it, I have about 300-600 airline amenity kits I need to put on ebay�

Oh�and if that weren�t bad enough�I�m collecting travel related matchbooks for one of �my� children in Moldova. He has about 200 packs so far and each time I go, I bring more..

Isn�t it funny the things we collect?

Sandrajo , my son had a heap of maccys toys until he had a clear out when he moved out , pity you weren't near as they went in the garbage. ;-)
Unrulyjulie , I would have guessed fairies if asked , and oh there are some really lovely ones out there aren't there . I love your myspace layout . :-)
Puusnboots , have you got all sort of colours and shapes in your perfume bottles and do they have a scent still ? :-)
Gosh skyep , I haven't seen a 45 record in years , I gave mine , nearly 100, to a local radio station , that is when they used to play 45s :-0

Hi Bigmamma - hope you're well. Dinner's just going down, so I thought I'd pop in again.....

I collect fairies, pixies, elves, angels, cherubs, thimbles, wooden & unpolished bronze cats, wooden & rustic owls, a manner of unusual soap-stone ornaments, Victorian bits & bobs, fountain pens & David Winter houses - amongst other things!

I also collect dust, 'specially if the sun's out! ;o}

[bigmamma]

Hi daffy , those dolls are really lovely , I was given one last xmas and she is up on the table on the landing . :-)
Legend , nothing at all , not even in your past ? :-)
Village Vicar , wow , now you have some collections , I bet it would take hours to formally set them all up .:-)

[pussnboots]

Yes I have different colours pink, black, green and blue but my favourites are the blue ones, one in particular is an irredescent petrol blue, the glass description is called oil on water. I can only describe it as the colour of petrol when you see it on a wet road. some of them do still have a perfume smell but not very strong.

[bigmamma]

Hi smudge love, what another lovely collection , fairies , same as unrulyjulie . My mum had some thimbles too.
I bet they all take some dusting eh ? :-)

[pussnboots]

Oh I have a collection of cats as well, wooden,pottery & metal I have about 17 of these.

My mother had those Pelham string puppets to play witjh - which were passed onto us, and are now stored away in their original boxes, because my sons thought they were "soppy". Now I hear they're quite collectable.
