zhelana aksed: Do you collect anything? This prompt should include pictures.

No, I don’t. I used to as a kid. Then I collected dolls in folk costumes from different countries, porcelain cats, paper dolls and embossed, die-cut paper scrap pictures. For example. I still have those collections, but they are packed down. As a young adult I didn’t have the money for collecting anything and when I finally had the money for it, I made the conscious decision to not start any new collections. I understand the joy of it, but I also feel I have too much stuff already and I don’t need more stuff. I have lots and lots of books and fabric, but they arenät really collected. And the fabrics gets made into clothes eventually.

I hear you on not wanting to get more stuff. That's the main reason I finally started buying electronic books.

I hope what is keeping you busy/stressed works out. Have a good weekend :-)

I buy electronic books too, now, unless it's something where the art is the main point. :)

Thank you! Busy more than stressed. :) I hope you will have a good weekend too!

If I had unlimited space I'm sure I would take it up again. :)

[brunettepet.livejournal.com]

I collect enough for all of us.

[scripsi.livejournal.com]

It's a joy to do. :)

Hee! I collect books..well...I DID. It can get overstuffed pretty quick!

*HUGS*

[scripsi.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I mostly read new books on Kindle now just because it doesn't take up space. :) *hugs*

I don't collect stuff either due to lack of room. I'd be terrible otherwise!

[scripsi.livejournal.com]

I suspect I would as well. I have no troubles thinking up things I would enjoy collecting!

Very cool! I used to collect geishas, but I stopped. As you said, it costs money! If only we were rich...

[scripsi.livejournal.com]

What a great thing to collect! :)

I used to collect rocks and rubber ducks.

Now, I just collect books and get a little annoyed when someone gives me a rubber duck (because they're just going to end up in a box.)

[scripsi.livejournal.com]

Oh, pretty rocks- I collected that too! Mu Mum found them all in a box when they moved and she made a very pretty border to some flowers in our garden at the summer cottage with it.

I know the feeling of annoyance when you are given something like that!

I totally agree with you. I collected a lot of weird things when I was a kid as well, but not now. :-P

It was such fun- but what would one do with it now. :)
