Odd things I collect
A collection of ordinary objects
In my house we collect all sorts of things. We don't do it on purpose. We just buy something and then we lose it, so we buy another. And when we lose that one, we buy another one and so on and so on.By the time it's all said and done, we've collected a bunch of duplicate items and although they're always showing up when we don't need them, we can never find them when we do need them.

Collecting Sears Catalogs NEW!
The Sears Catalog: Every Collector's and Historian's Dream
Were you born between 1940 and 1975? If you were, then chances are your school clothes were purchased each year from the Sears Catalog and picked up when they arrived at the local store or they were delivered right to your door. It's also very likely that you poured over the Sears Christmas Wishbook in November and December each year and maybe you even circled those toys that were "must haves". Do you have an old Sears Catalog or two that you've stashed away for nostalgia? Maybe you're an ac...

Collecting Military Letters NEW!
Letters Home from the Front Lines
For as long as there have been wars; soldiers, sailors and airmen have looked forward to "mail call". Letters from home mean everything when you're on the battlefront, in what seems like millions of miles and light years away from everyone you hold dear. While the soldiers crave news of the normal, of the every day, their families back home crave any contact that lets them know that their loved one is alive, well and eagerly looking forward to his (or her) return home. These return letters f...

10 Tiny Treasures
A Virtual Curio Cabinet
I confess. I'm a THING person -- a collector, a gatherer of objects. If it gathers dust, I'm all over it (although not with a dustcloth). Don't get the wrong idea: I'm not Miss Havisham, huddled in my lair as my belongings crumble to dust around me. Well, okay, maybe the dust part. Nor am I Silas Marner, cackling gleefully over my shiny bits in an ecstasy of greedy magpie lust. Oh, well, maybe sometimes. This lens celebrates some of the tangible, physical objects that I treasure, for a vari...

Holt Howard Ceramic Colletibles
I love Vintage Collectibles!
The Holt-Howard Company was started in 1948 by A. Grant Holt and the brothers Robert and John Howard with a loan from their parents. Their plan was to design and sell ceramic kitchen and gift items, starting with a Christmas line. Holt Howard was to become one of the largest importing companies in America. Some of their most popular lines (and now vintage collectibles) are: Christmas Collectibles (1950s-1970s), Pixieware (1958-1959), Cozy Kitten (1950s), Red Rooster (1960s-1970s), and Merry ...

Feather Collecting and Nature Photography
Possessing Feathers Is Against the Law, So Here's a Different Way to Collect Feathers
Children are naturally curious and pick up interesting things they see. Perhaps collecting is a fairly basic human instinct. In my family everyone collects one or two things, so as a child my collecting behavior was channeled into feather collecting. Perhaps it was a way for my mother to steer me towards an interest in nature or maybe she was just glad I chose something that was free. Every time I took a walk, I scanned the ground for new feathers. We lived in the country, so it wasn't long ...
