[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 138745, member: 805"] I suppose I am a collector of a bunch of old stuff! I collect old pieces of wedgewood. I collect original (preWWII) Wedgewood Fairyland Luster pieces. I collect, though I have no more room for more, handmade period furniture (the livingroom, diningroom and foyer are Federal period, the family room is Mission/Arts and Crafts movement, my bedroom is walnut Victorian and the rest is just a collection of things I love and found while being an antique dealer prekids). I have a bed in my guestroom that moms needs a step for. Bonehead and I actually found it on the street being put out in the trash about 19 years ago. It's from the late 1700's and was very likely made by slaves. It is a mahogany canapy bed. I also collect Fiestaware. I use that as my every day stuff and just love finding pieces (most of them new) and using them for a completely different thing! For example, I have a covered sugar dish on my stove that I use for sea salt. So I have a quite a few collections that fill this big ole house. I don't know what I will do when I downsize. No way all this stuff will fit in a smaller house! Sharon [/QUOTE]
