Re: Interesting Collections.

I'm not a collector because I can't do with clutter but my husband is a collector of clocks, he doesn;t realise it though. Everywhere I look in the house there is a damn clock because he's forever buying them from charity shops, drives me nuts, I'm already aware of my time passing by so quickly without being reminded *sigh* Good job I love him or I could quite easily kill him haha

Re: Interesting Collections.

When I was a young boy, I collected stamps. I filled an album by buying monthly stamps on approval. I still have them and they are worth a mint.

Just one mint, not even a whole packet.

I collect breathes - about 20 per minute - quite interesting actually as the buddhist monk said to the actress!

Re: Interesting Collections.

I collect a lot of things, in my house it's mostly dust though.

Re: Interesting Collections.

I am not really a collector but l do love musical boxes.
I have one shaped like a radiogram. One a bit like a carousel and two normal jewellery boxes.
One of the boxes, a friend of mine whose son lived in Japan, got him to get it for my birthday some years back.

Re: Interesting Collections.

My OH's father is a very keen coin collector or numismatist if you want to be posh.
I'd like to be able to do it but mine seem to disappear.

I dont collect anything, my son is an avid collector,
although of late he has slowed down,his cupboard full collection is still here,of old games,console, i will ask him when he rings if i can post a picture.


ArtAngel,i also love jewellery boxes, i will definitely be getting a few,like you i love unusual, those ring and stands,don't come anywhere near ,as elegant and beautiful as a jewellery box,but that is just my opinion.

I don't deliberately collect anything, but have lots of objects in the form of owls.
