What do YOU collect? (Besides chickens!)

[Cheekon]

Um old CDs I guess. It's not much of a collection just more of a hoard.

I like anime, too, although I don't have a huge collection of that.

I collect hen on nest dishes of every color and size. I go to flea markets and look for old ones from the Depression era. So far, I have 14 hen on nest dishes and two crowing rooster dishes. Probably my oldest one is made of vaseline glass, which is really cool. It's a lime green color. I display the hen on nest dishes above my kitchen cabinets, along with other chicken-shaped objects I've amassed over the years.

My husband collects video games, calculators and old battery-powered handheld games. He has almost every system ever made and hundreds and hundreds of games. I like playing video games, so this doesn't bug me.

As a result of our collections, our house looks like a country store and a GameStop that got tossed together in a tornado (although it's mixed up in an orderly fashion -- hee hee!).

I collect Breyer horses and TYs. I've been collecting them ever since I was little and even though I'm older now, I still collect them. The TYs aren't really worth much now, but I still have fun collecting all the little animals!

I also like to collect little animal carvings. I just bought three in Arizona. A large frog, a little bull, and a wooden eagle. I have a few other eagles and some chickens too.

I have been collecting Breyer Horses since I was 9 years old. I have about 180 of them.

Outhouses! And if it does have a chicken with it, that's even better!!

Chickaroo: Do you mean something along this line!

Chicken Lady: Do you have any this size? This is from the 40's and one of my favorites.

I collect seashells ...right off the beach ..and broken ones are just as beautiful to me as perfectly intact ones

I also seem to collect fabric.. if collecting and hoarding is the same thing

Me, too!!!

I also seem to collect hungry, teenage boys who play loud rock music in my garage!
Other than those, I collect bowls made by unknown potters! I just love pottery bowls, not really sure why, but I'm always looking for something unusual. We have an art studio here in town that is for people with disabilities and I love buying things from them. Won't increase in value, but gives my heart joy to see what they create!
