When I posted about my baby collection last week. Shara from Monkeybox left me this comment.
"I love it all! I think you should let us ask to see your collection of ____________ and let us fill in the blank. I bet no matter what we suggest - you have it"
Her comment got me thinking about trying this out as a weekly post. If you have followed my blog for awhile you know that collections are near and dear to my heart and I do have quite a few of them. So I think I will try this idea out. I KNOW some of your suggestions will be beyond what I have in my stash - but perhaps I will surprise you with what I have.
So the challenge is on. Leave me a comment finishing this sentence " Let me see your collection of _____________________". I am thinking I will pick out one or two of your collection comments and post about them weekly. I think Tuesday will be my featured day for this post.
What do you want to see? (and please keep it within reason!)
Let me see your collection of __________.
trophies!

LOVE it! I bet we will have a hard time stumping you. My mother has a collection that not many have-maybe you do... toothbrush holders. Actually they are quite neat-the old vintage ones. So...do you have some?

Here's one:
I want to see your collection of lady head vases and/or collection of (what I call) Christmas girl planters. I have a collection of both and I absolutely love them and had so much fun collecting them. I stopped when there was no more room in my china cabinet, but I got most of the ones I wanted.
