I have had different colletions through the years. I have a mostly complete collection of Stephen King's novels. I collected wolf stuff for a while. Then mice, which is harder to find. Right now I'm collecting gnomes. I have a small collection that I had at my bedside for a while. They are in a box right now, because I rearranged my bedside table and am unsure where to put them currently.

@Nana49 I would like a full sized garden gnome one day. Right now all of mine are small fairy garden sized.

You must have been a lighthouse keeper in your previous life . I collect figurines, the tiny and cute/funny ones. (I try not to, but still end up having quite a bit here.)

@Nana49 I read some stories about lighthouses. Most of them sounded either lonely, creepy, or had some links with illegal activities, or spy stuff. I did think as a child, to buy an old lighthouse and live there, but with time, I thought of creepy spirits, and decided that my heart wouldn't be able to bear with it .

Different things, 'seasonally'. John Grisham and Andrew Klavan books. But at this time of 'season' in my life, I'm into plants and flowering trees, such as: King protea, magnolia little gems, morengga, and evergreens trees.

Three things I have always collected feathers I pick up along the way, rocks that seem to speak to me, and anything to do with pigs. Unfortunately, my feather and rock collection got left behind in Latvia. I had some pig figurines with me and have added some other pieces even notebooks with pig photos. I do love photos of lighthouses too. and have a collection on my Pinterest

I used to collect rocks, gemstones, shells, coral, thimbles, collector's plates and Lladro figurines. Now I collect jeweled compacts, Chanel jewelry, oil paintings, and sterling silver. I only use my third Waterman pen, since I lost two others that my husband bought me as gifts.
