I am excitedly "collecting" items for my (first eva) contest prize. Bring on the entries, I will draw names after the contest closes Feb.29. If you are really stuck on ideas here's one—and I might add that this is very embarassing for me and I am very glad I do not have a photo of it—when I was about 7 I collected eraser shavings. Seriously. Not a highlight of my youth, but I blame it on a particularly non-attentive second grade teacher. She was not very engaging. To put a positive spin on it I will call it my deconstructionist period. Since I don't have a photo of that very early collection I will leave you with an image from Brita Hansen's crayfish collection.
Please note: I (almost absolutely) guarantee there will be no eraser shavings in your prize (probably definitely.)

I suppose showing my yarn collection would be cheating, hmmm?
thinking. really i am. not much of a collector.
Eraser shavings? Kids are insane.
Okay, I have a collection, I am going home tonight to take a picture...I will post it tomorrow before 11am PST. Does that work still?
I like to stir 'em and shake 'em. Check out my collections.

Heya, Just read about your contest. Here's my entry: http://mellowbeing.com/blog/2008/02/button-collection.php
thanks for setting this up. I had a fun time making something creative with all these buttons (that didn't involved sewing ;).
I am trying to simplify my life. But, I do have a collection of vintage hankies. The kinds with prints of fruit, or dogs and cats or flowers!
What a great contest! I came over from Leslie's site and immediately posted...
I just posted my collection hope I'm in time for the contest. Did you have a sticker book collection? That was huge at my school.

When I was a kid I collected bells. I liked the way they sounded. My brother collected keys and rocks (big rocks).
Now I collect cookie cutters and Tea Pots.
All right, I've posted!
