I have been saving finger nail & toe nail clippings for 25 years and now have 26 lbs. of clippings and I hate the idea of throwing them out but don't know what else to do with them. ANY IDEAS?

My hubby collects coins, something I have never understood. Who pays hundreds of dollars for a quarter???

I will admit to having a handbag "problem" and I love kitchen gadgets, good cookware, and dishes. Sigh. I also have waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too many cookbooks.

For my 21st birthday my mom gave me a pair of salt and pepper shakers: one apple and one orange. I had just moved into my first apt. She had actually purchased a full apple set and a full orange set and we each had opposing sets. Needless to say people saw them. From then on anytime a friend or relative went on vacation they would bring me a set of S&P's. I have many that are the same shape; but labeled with different state names. The nicest gifts from traveling are silver and from Spain. Collections can take up a great deal of space so I have not added any for at least 10 years and most are in boxes in the garage.

I collect videotapes (American), and DVDs (worldwide). Many years ago I foresaw the time when I might put a stop to television and movie theatres, so I started this hobby. It's now serving me well. I gave Comcast the boot to the butt over a year ago, threw my antenna in the dumpster about six months later, and had no trouble being without cable/free TV...although I do still watch stuff on Internet TV, but mostly its all about my DVDs and videotapes. I seen many hobbies come and go, but this is the first one that has proven useful over the long haul.

We have perhaps 250 Hummel Figurines we have collected over the years. I seem to have collected a massive collection of tools...both hand and powered...very rarely do I tackle a project where I don't have the tools to do the job properly.

Stamps, coins, shells, fossils, as a kid. In my teens I left them all, mostly, behind. I still have a few of each. No big money items, just keepsakes that bring back fond memories. Life has too many interesting things for me to discover, all of the time, without fixating on a chosen collectible category, or two, or three, or - - - -

Good Morning.
I collect postage stamps from all over the world. Mostly portraying steam trains and/or aircraft.
