I just recently started following your blog...love the work you post! I also collect (too many crafty) things. The stuff I really accumulate is FABRIC, lately fat quarters. If it cute I simply can't resist buying it (or keeping old clothes because I love the fabric)!
I collect color! My daughter loves to ask me what my favorite color is. I can never answer. It changes all the time. I finally started telling her "Emma color" (her name), just to stump her. I love the color of the sky on a summer evening when you're driving home from a kids baseball game. It's the most intense blue, all shaded with orange at the bottom as the sun sets. I could go on but... So, I'm always trying to find this, and other colors to put in my house. Paper, ribbon, marbles, home decorations, fabric, flowers, etc.

Wow, what don't I collect. French goodies, paper of course, glasses vases, candlesticks, frames, antique sewing cabinets (not on purpose but somehow I now have 5) and books. Lots and lots of books.

You are a hoot! I collect all kinds of paper things too in hopes of putting them in scrapbooks where they belong. Unfortunately, they are piling up but I love to empty a box and just sift through them remembering why they are there.
BTW, I grew up just down the road from where you are living. It's a small world....
