Collection Point












I love the beautiful and unusual things that people collect and display.  Why hide them away when they can look this good!

  1. I am always amazed at how even the simplest objects can make beautiful collections.

  2. Your Majesty!

    I just love these images!! Especially the aluminum old fashion coffee pots, and the Tangerine image, which reminds me of my latest creation, A new Mother's Day card:)) Collections are wonderful to create, and they can become so interesting, made of anything!! My collection is of all of my families movie theater stubs, which show the date and the movie that we went to see:)) I plan on making a huge collage of them to hang on the wall so that we can later look back on all of the fun we all shared:)

    Thanks for sharing!

    Royal wishes,
    Daisy

  15. I also loved the pewter jugs but hope that they are not hanging on a door! I had 5 red and white metal hearts hung with red/white striped ribbon. Fabulous. Hung them on a door for two days before we went mad with the noise. Even the wind blowing down the hall was enough to set them of. I will just enjoy your photos with thanks
