Collection Challenge Housekeeping and An Addendum

I have had over 10 posts in my Collection Challenge segment and have really been enjoying sharing what I have.  I have also been stumped by some of your requests and couldn't come thru with the requested collections (sometimes I would only have one lone item...and one doesn't make a collection). 

Some of those collections THAT I DON'T HAVE ARE:

Trophies...unless you count my kids soccer trophies from grade school (but I am not counting them).

NO toothbrush holders, flower frogs (altho my sis in law has an awesome collection), Wade figures,  Vera scarves, salt cellars or spoons, tatting shuttles, Bavarian lederhosen, paint by numbers, vintage wire hangers from the 40s or 50s, smiley faces, picnic baskets, lady head vases, pin wheels or paper dolls.

I do have a vintage napkin collection and did a post on it here.

I also missed a couple of items on previous challenge posts.  On the honeycomb post (#6) I completely missed a bin with some honeycomb items.  Here are my two favorites

A set of two rose centerpieces.(one unopened).  They are pretty good sized.

And a sweet snowman

He is about a foot tall with original broom and pipe.

I also COMPLETELY missed a box of vintage stickers for challenge #10.  I used to store my stickers in a small vintage box and then I started the drawer collection.  I never moved the box stickers to the drawer.

They are all now together and one happy family...but thought I would share these as they are a bit different than what was in the drawer!

Some of these are really great and are different than my previous post.

cameos.

A few more flowers

I love these birthday stickers.  Some of them are foil, so they don't photograph quite as well.

 

On the green box are two TINY birthday candles...the box is full of them.


Bride and groom.


I love the charm of these foil letters.

A very cute bunch of baby stickers.

A box of flags that fly both left and right..it says so right on the box!

I think that is it.  I don't think I have anymore stickers lurking about. Feeling much better about my collection posts after doing this bit of housekeeping and getting everything in order.

happy day.

Do you have a collection of ball point pens with the liquid and floating scene in it? Advertising calendars? Letter openers? Campaign buttons?

[Lynn]

And I am glad to see you have included the "required" Scottie. But really I was looking forward to seeing you and your family model those Bavarian lederhosen.

I am impressed with the variety of requests! Still what collections you do have are amazing! Enjoying this series a lot! Thanks for the updates. Your stickers are most impressive.

Well, I'm glad to see the rest of your stickers. The scottie is so cool and the cameos are very unusual. I was happy to see that many of the baby stickers matched some of the cards in my baby book that my mom started for me.

I am very disappointed that you don't have a collection of Barvarian lederhosen... and you call yourself a collector. ha!

Well Darn Laurie, I feel cheated that you didn't have a leiderhosen collection; but what an awesome sticker collection! You are truly amazing! I hope you have a wonderful weekend ahead. Looking forward to your next post! Elizabeth

[Jill]

Well, I'm feelin' the need to state my deep disappointment about the leiderhosen also. I know you could pull that look off with your cat-eye's. Well, maybe not the cat-eye's-- maybe a pair of majorette boots. But I know you don't have those either. :)

Loved the stickers-- they're so nostalgic, I love them. The honeycombs were adorable too!

Hugs,
Jill

Well, you can't collect absolutely everything! But you've got almost everything. Awesome collections. Mimi

Hi Laurie,

"Show me your collection of __office supplies__".
I would love to see paperclips/fasteners, staplers...anything they used to make their lives easier.
Your sticker collection is amazing. All the details from gold foil to embossed surfaces. Wonderful. Have a super weekend.
Kindly,
Twinkle Beverages
