I collect smashed penny souvenirs. At least they don't take up much room.

Water bottles.I collect and keep all the plastic water bottles I've used in the past two years. My family absolutely hates it. They take up soo much space.

Okay, I'm going to have to agree w/ you fam....Why water bottles???  I do run mine through the diswasher and re-use them.

I've got this crazy idea where I want to create something out of them. I don't know what yet, but I imagine it will be really awesome when I figure it out.
About reusing them, I've heard that's unsafe because the chemicals from the plastic seeps into your water. This could just be a myth, but I thought I'd inform you just in case.

hmm, i collect a few specifics (elephants, owls, and
gingerbread things) but i'm very picky, so unless its
christmas, you won't see anything taking over an
entire room. mostly, they're gifts or something i just
couldn't live without and they mean a lot more to me
that way...

however! he insists that i'm obsessed with buying
household things and have a growing collection.
how can i NOT buy the adorable oven mits (on sale)
that match my kitchen? how can i pass up the
neat thingy that the paper towel roll sits on and
conveniently spins? come ON  :icon_rr:


[ we all have a place in history. mine is in the clouds. ]
