How many of all of you have a collection?
I’ve been wondering for my whole life what I should collect. I would look at my uncle’s comic book collection, my sister’s quarter collection, and my dad’s stamp and baseball card and records collection, and I’m just amazed!
Collections are like your own museum and I really want one. I want to stick to one theme though, but that is so hard to do, because I like everything. I went through a phase where I really like glass jars and vases, but then a comrade advised against it, saying if I were to move to a house, a glass collection would be dangerous and a hassle to bring along. It IS true, if you think about it, but glass is still pretty and worth it.
Something Like This!
I mean, look at all the DIY you can do will glass vases and jars. Think about all the terrariums you can put in there!!
and boy, do I have a soft spot for terrariums! Speaking of terrariums, click
Then I went through a phase where I wanted every room of my house to feature a different theme. I wanted seven rooms including bathrooms and bedrooms and kitchen and living room and I wanted to decorate each room a different continent!
That didn’t work out that well, I need to explore the world more, or stick to one theme so I don’t strangle my bank account to death.
Then I went through a phase where I wanted to collect postcards from all over the world! There’s a site called postcrossing.net (I THINK) I forgot the link… but you can pick someone from the world and you can write to them from where you are, and they’ll write from where they are. it’s as easy as easy-peasy-on-a-cheezie.
And then I decided to give up. That’s something I do a lot these days.
Until, I found this on the modcloth blog. whoohoot.
and this is my result:
Marvelous Mugs!
(I actually didn’t really follow the quiz, because I’m just so indecisive, but mugs won’t break my bank, and I only need one salt and pepper set, and I don’t need statement heels, and collecting gloves is like collecting hands. Isn’t that creepy??)
