do you collect?

I sometimes ask myself, why people like to collect.
I can't explain myself - it just an impulse sometimes.
I remember, I started with some stamps.
Later on I've collected plush (I had a bunk bed -
I slept above and my stuffed animals below :-D).
It continued with many other things.

Luckily I have to move to Germany,
so I've started with nothing again.
But if I look around in my room now, I have collected
much to much stuff, without even realizing it.
Loads of fabrics, glass rods, papers, postcards, woods..
and I've already sorted out many of my books.
I need more space!!

Last year I've bought some ACEO.
I have a small collection of five and I love each of them.
I've seen annarubyking just listed an ACEO
of her beautiful birds last week.
I just couldn't stand it - so I've bought it :-)
They reminds me of the birds
in my father's aviary in Jakarta.


She have also sent me another beautiful ACEO.
I'm just in love with them.


Anna has many beautiful items in her shop
- not only ACEO, she also makes earrings.
And I love her new style - Matryoshka girls.
Just go there and see.
Maybe you'll also start to collect? ;-)
