What do YOU collect?

For this swap you will have 1 partner and will send something that your partner collects. Please list at least 3 items you collect in the comments section below and/or in your profile.

Be sure to check the comments section and/or your partner's profile!

You may send just one item, two, or more. Value should be around $5 US before shipping.

Items may be found in thrift stores, on a clearance rack, in your stash, etc and can be new or used. You could even make the item(s).

I'm allowing a month for sending to give you time to find/create the collectible for your partner.

Please send something that you would like to receive. This means nothing torn, ratty, or dirty.

To participate you must be in good standing in Swap-bot and have no recent no-sends. I will ban anyone who seems iffy.

Most of all, have fun!

This is a Thrift Store Treasure Hunters group swap.

International.

Please PM me if you have any questions!

Judaica (Jewish items), books (see my profile and amazon list), handmade ceramics (plates, mugs, bowls, etc. - ones with signatures on the back not stamps, and they're relatively easy to find at goodwill and other thrift stores!)

Lately I have been collecting vintage woodland animals especially deer (flocked and porcelain) and mushroom birds, vintage fabrics, or simple but bold colored fabrics, 1970's or earlier women's or photography magazines, anything with a mod design pattern and color. My blog and flickr photos give a good idea of the thrift store finds that strike my fancy.

I collect old books (before 1950), Celtic crosses, and miniatures.

Great idea!

My current obsessions: owls, tiny/miniature books (from dollhouse size to a few inches across, handmade is great!), "Our Daily Bread" plates, retro kitchen items, funky scarves and bags, and gothic or somber-looking cherubs (not the cutesy kind).

I collect stuff related to London England or England like the buses or phonebooths everyone knows., I collect Vampire stuff can be anything from a picture on something to a stuffed doll or a book is always a treat if used not all beat up on the cover I like to display them too. My daughter loves shotglasses and you can always find tons of them at thrift stores perfer ones with sayings and not all scratched off type from diswashers or wear and tear. Check my profile maybe help you locate something fun and exciting for me. I am not hard to please if it is something I like.....

I collect Vintage lace, the old yellowed kind. I also collect things that are asian or with an oriental theme to use in my art. I have been looking for old doll heads (having a lot of trouble finding those) to use in my work. Old glass beads that look different from the norm.
