Morning Family. I collect things. lots of things, and i have hobbies, which keep me distracted when im all stressed out, so this leads me to today's question:

"do you collect anything, if so what? and what are your fave hobbies?"

 

I collect scarves, Converse all star sneakers, Vintage jewellery, books- usually 1st editions of the classics where possible and cd's. i have at least 500, none of which are burnt. I love trolling around op shops, antique shops and thrift stores. I have a large collection of bags- particularly "Emily the Strange' bags.

Now my hobbies are reading and writing, photography, playing the piano- and sleeping! rolleyes

Now how about you?

Love to you all,

Maz XX

I collect comfy beds and fun toys for my cats.  >^..^<

I have no hobbies anymore.  Hard to have hobbies with so many kitty chores!  :o)
I love my cats.

I'm moving in March so any collections I have I'm selling on Craigslist or giving away.

Hey all!!!

I collect so much stuff that I think I'm starting to collect collections, lol :) I really like my oriental stuff, country/primitive Americana, African art, candle holders, lamps, clocks, books, etc :) I can't list it all or we would be reading this until the next roll call :)

I collect shot glasses from around the country and from around the world. My wife and I have friends that travel a lot and we have friends all over the country so I have amassed quite a collection. The last time we cleaned the hutch I keep them in I counted them. I have well over 500 of them and of course with a/p I dont use any of them. I found that when I drink my heartrate goes up considerably and that adds to the anxiety so I try to refrain. As far as hobbies go I build and restore cars and trucks....mostly classic vw bugs and karmann ghias. my son and I also enjoy riding dirtbikes whenever we can. I dont mind a little adrenaline pumping thru the veins. The whole family enjoys christian rock concerts. We go whenever we can.

I collect Pug stuff...

And I like to write. :)

Books, books, books, books, books.

Now, there is lots of other "stuff" around the house that collects on its own, but...LOL (I'm way too bad of a pack-rat!)

Oh, and is it really collecting that I have bags and bags of clothes that I'm way too large to ever wear again?  :)

I collect angel pins.  My departed mother liked angels and I would buy angel knick knacks for her.  Now I limit myself just to the pins because they are small and easy to display.  Whenever I see them I think of my mother. 

My hobby is entering sweepstakes - every day.  I've won a trip to Cancun, a trip to Miami to a NASCAR race, and plane tickets that we used to go to Portland Maine.  Those are just the biggest items.   

I also read ALOT.
