I collect bottles but I am a minimalist I threw away 80% of my collection. It started with finding avon bottles shaped like cars and boats that my grandfather (passed) had got them from my Gram piece by piece over the years.

Sweet memories and hugs.:heart:

Words... bit of a wordsmith.:thumbsup:


Oh yeah, in the material world - pyramids, crystals, uncut gemstones, music and books.

I want an instrument collection. It is beginning:
keyboard, clarinet, hand drums, guitar and couple other bits and pieces. Gave the mandolin away. Would like mandolin and harp next.

Do you have any collections? If so, what?


I have a few...I naturally tend to collect things anyway, official collection or not lol.

Other than dust, I actively collect:


-Les Mis stuff. Anything.

-Model/toy horses. Started when I was in 3rd grade, I still add a new Breyer model now and then when I find a nice one for a good price.

-Horseshoes. Yes. Old, used horseshoes. I have a racing plate from a winning horse in a small stakes race hanging from my rearview mirror (hasn't broken the windshield yet and it's been there for a year, it must be lucky! :laughing: ) and about 25-30 others. One was hanging on my front door on the inside, but apparently 3M strips aren't strong enough to hold it long-term oops




Really I stopped back in the 80's but in the 70's and 80's I collected beer cans. I was under age by far too. I don't have a lot compared to some collectors, but what I have are good. I have about 700. I went to different countries as a child so I have some from there as well. I should pull those out sometime and see what some of them are worth.

Funny thing is I don't drink anymore.laugh laugh laugh laugh
