Collections

I’m thinking I need to cut down on the number of things I collect.  I was just going through some pictures and it made me realize that maybe my collecting craze is getting a bit out of hand.  Give me your thoughts on this.  Here are a few pictures of just a few of the things I like to collect.

#1  I LOVE Buttons

I have buttons of every color.  ……and every type….

such as pottery buttons

and jeweled buttons

all grouped by color or shape or type and placed on a shelf where I can play with them!

#2  And then there are my Marbles….

I sort of have them everywhere….

You can’t really tell by the picture above, but the drawer pulled out is my collection of vintage trims and ribbons and on top, among various other things, you’ll see a box lid filled with more marbles!

I don’t have any rhyme or reason to what I collect.  If it brings pleasure to my eye or my heart, it is worthy.  Such as these small oil cans.

And this collection of Vintage Hats…..These things “speak to me”, oh whatever!, but I end up dragging them home and the next thing I know, I have a collection going on.

Sometimes I don’t get carried away, I just like one or two of something and then I can fit several “collections” into a neat and tidy space, like this.

These are just a few of the many collections I have.  I just happened to already have pictures of these.  I’ll share others as I take more pictures.  (I still have that new camera on my wishlist!)
