Kirstenmumof3 replied: I collect teapots and postcards. Both my collections started with family members. My sister bought me postcards when she was in Toronto on a school excursion. Every since then I have had the collection. I just find postcards very interesting, you can get lost looking at the beautiful pictures. My teapot collection started with my mom. She bought me a novelty teapot of a cat sitting on a vanity table. It was so cute that she continued to buy me one every year. Then I started collecting the antique ones. I have one that is in the shape of a bowling ball and the spout and handle are shaped like bowling pins. It's an antique teapot for japan, my DH bought it for me at an antique show. My most prized teapot is a set with the teapot, creamer and sugar bowl. It came from my DH's aunt and it belonged to his grandmother. It's shaped like little Hawian Huts. His grandmother bought it in Hawai about 40 years ago. It's so beautiful. My DH's aunt gave it to me the first time we went out to their farm. She barely knew me!

loveydad replied: I collect dust. LOL

No, I feel its a great hobby to collect something, so I've started my own collection and a collection for each of my kids.

I collect parents magazine (and sometimes parenting) I have them from clear back in the 60's, some of the 80's around when my son was born, and then in the 90s and 2000's. I go to thrift stores all the time looking for them!

My son Henry collects stuff from a certain movie. He's got everything!

My son Vincent collects hot wheels (he has more than 100) and Kel collects Spiderman stuff.

Tracy collects (with help from her daddy) Princess stuff. Anything that says "i'm a princess" or princess or is disney princess, she has!

Nicky has piggys because he's a little piglet!!

Carter and Clara have Winnie the Pooh going for them. They've got TONS of winnie the pooh stuff.

Andriana collects angels. They're all lined up on her dresser. (She's a baby so her daddy helps)

Peter - who knows! He's still young!

Boys r us replied: I'm with Lovey Dad, I collect dust!

I have lots of little collections, my dining room has a border with grapes on it..so I have been forced into a collection of grapes by those around me whom feel the need to adorn this room with grape patterned china, grapevined candles and picture frames and silver serving dishes with grapevined handles and serving spoons the same..and yes..you guess it...even silver grape slat and pepper shakers!

coasterqueen replied: Someone, I don't remember who, started a precious moments collection for me but that seemed to die off about a year after Kylie was born. I think it's because she started breaking them so DH said he wasn't going to waste his money on them anymore.

But other than that...nothing that I can really think of.

MomToMany replied: I collect Cherished Teddies. I love teddy bears!

Maddie&EthansMom replied: PIGS! I actually haven't added to my collection in years. I started collecting tea pots when I got married.

Boys r us replied: Aimee...I have something I should send you!! LOL!!!
I'll post a pic of it tonight...I'm sure you'll appreciate it..since you collect pigs and all! haaa!

3_call_me_mama replied: I collect penguins! and picture frames.

New Mommy replied: I collect fairies and dolls. I guess I was never really a girly girl when I was younger so I am making up for it now

MommyToAshley replied: I don't collect anything unless pictures of Ashley count. But, DH seems to be collecting computers and computer parts. Everytime we upgrade and he builds the new computers, he finds a "use" for the old ones. He'd have a computer in the bathroom if I let him! Ok, this turned into more of a gripe, Sorry. And, honey, if you are reading this, sorry. But, you know it is true.

My DH used to be the same way, but we have been selling things off, he would rather have more pinablls than computers, and hay I get to take the rider off the Homeowners policy by getting ride of alot of them

Josie83 replied: The only thing I collect is photographs, like a bazillion of them! I wish we had a digital or a scanner so I could share them all with you! O well, maybe sometime. I don't really collect anything else, altho I never seem to chuck anything away! Of course I have kept all of the sentimental stuff of Cassie's! xx
