Collecting??

[Lacemaker]

I have a collection of spoons (not started by me) and I also have a collection of thimbles including a tiny child's thimble with Hey Diddle Diddle engraved on it and an old silver Dorcas thimble which I use a lot. Here's the child's thimble greatly enlarged -

That is beautiful, I have a couple of very old thimbles that came in their own little wooden boxes, but they are a bit the worse for wear sadly.

Mum collected spoons, and we always picked her up some wherever we travelled too, I think there are over 100 still with Dad, but as he's wrapped them (saves polishing them), we don't see them anymore.

No Emm, Wedgwood doesn't just come in Blue and Green.

I will try and remember the colours I have.

Well of course there is Blue and Green, Dark Blue, Purple, Black, Grey, Pink, Terracotta and lilac. I might have missed some (the memory isn't what it was) but as you can see there are quite a few.

[Emm]

There certainly are - still think I prefer the blue, though.
I have a lovely cameo ring, which just looks like blue Wedgewood.

I thought it was only the Jasperware that was in blue and green.

I collect various things ... Clowns, Leeds Pottery, Crystal Glasses, all of which I love until I have to clean them

I collect dragon ornaments and books, you can never have too many good books to read.

...and, of course, Mellie, you have been guided by an expert when it comes to your reading material.

I have been sort of collecting the witches and dragons thingies with the crystals. I have got loads of half collections and part collections all over the place. I need to do a clear out and settle on just ONE thing!

These are my witch, wizard and warlock, made by a lady living on Mull

[Rowan]

If and when I get my new computer (after the holidays) I will get the Mighty Quine to assist me in getting a photo thingie so I can post photos again. Also I have managed to uninstall my scanner!!

Love those DaisyB

My mum would have loved those, DaisyB..she collected lots of bits and pieces to do with witches.

I bought the witch first at a craft fair at Wakehurst place. The lady who made them also made beautiful but very large castles, quite expensive too.
Then she moved to Mull to start up a B&B business so when I wanted to add the warlock and wizard to my witch she bought them down to her friend in West Sussex during a trip down south and I collected them from her, they are too fragile to trust Royal Mail with. I will have to see if I can get some better pics of them, maybe individually outside in the garden.

I have a collection of £2 coins too, when ever I get one it goes away in a special place.
I have a china cabinet full of cats, used to collect ElizABETH Arden ones.
Collect all kinds of crystals too.
