I collect 18th century magazines from ebay. I love stepping into the daily life of what now seems like an alternate universe, although I would never want to actually live there.

I have a lot of stuffed animals over the years but I can't say I collect them.  I do collect foreign money.  I like to save money from the different countries I visit.

I collect several things. My biggest collection is stamps, but I also collect seashells, and lighthouses, and anything else that catches my fancy.

I try to collect as many things as I can from my daughter! diapers, pictures, foot prints! she is an amazing child!(diapers are not soiled or wet Just one from each package that she has gotten, so she can see later in life that her daddy loves her so much! Hope that doesn't freak anyone out!)

I do love to collect!  I love to collect vintage (old!) cookware that's still in great condition such as Le Creuset, Dru Holland, Alfred Meakin Royal Ironstone.  I also love to collect old pottery that is still functional and beautiful such as McCoy pottery, Homer Laughlin pottery, refrigerator pitchers, etc.  My collectibles must be functional as I love to cook, bake and serve food in them.  I think it's very romantic to think of the history of these pieces as I use them.  I'm totally fascinated by items from the late 1800s and the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s.  :)

Amen to that Oldbuddy.

I collect coins. Although I haven't gotten any new ones lately. I have wheat pennies, mercury dimes, buffalo nickels, and gold dollars.

It seems like right now I'm collecting bills. Not by choice. It's so easy they just come to me and I put them away, don't even have to go out looking for them.

I have a small collection of angels, but my favorite thing to collect is Memories.  I love to scrapbook pictures of our kids lives.
