rsb7706 Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 I got married a little over a year ago, so this will be our 2nd Christmas. I haven't really started collecting anything yet unless you count gift wrap! I'm addicted to it, i could almost wrap each present in something different. I do want to start a village collection though.
Miss Star Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 I think I might try and get the "A Christmas Story" village this year

I haven't really started collecting anything yet unless you count gift wrap! I'm addicted to it, i could almost wrap each present in something different. I do want to start a village collection though. Oh my gosh.......I thought that I was the only one with the wrapping paper problem!!! I have soooo many......and the sad thing is I have a hard time stopping myself from buying more. Every year there are so many new cute ones out.......Ok, I admit it....I have a problem!
redspider61 Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 Ask Anyone That Knows Me About Christmas And They'll Roll Their Eyes And Yell Omg Snowmen!!! Ah Huh Im A Snowman Addict,,the Country Ones Theyre Everywhereee...
Trishy Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 Snowmen here too. I started when my daughter was a baby (25 years ago) so you know I have a million. We decorate all the bathrooms, 3 of the bedrooms and the rest of the house. I go to the craft fairs every year and end up with a bunch more. I know I really need them! LOL
dmmiller Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 anything that is Xmas-fire Dept. (Santa, snowmen, fire houses, etc..) Pretty much for my DH, cuz I dont really collect anything for me. :)
nellyhill Posted October 15, 2007 Posted October 15, 2007 I don't collect anything. I just have a lot of decorations.
tiredmom214 Posted October 15, 2007 Posted October 15, 2007 I do red and white. Peppermints, Mittens, and Snowman.:)
bella_4624_19 Posted October 15, 2007 Posted October 15, 2007 mine is any type of nascar ornament and the holiday cars
chilimak Posted November 3, 2007 Posted November 3, 2007 Snowmen and polar bears. Even my kids know I love these things, lol. When they see them, they say I would like them. Do they know me or what? Elena
coleman4905 Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 I love gingerbread items and snowmen and all year around i collect willow tree angels
conleybunch Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 Snowmen and hallmark ornaments Also WillowTree - some are christmas/holiday
trbarginhunter Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 Santas--in all forms, St Nicholas, Father Christmas, etc. Figurines, paper decor, door holders, towels, dishes, cookie jars, statues....lots and lots of Santas. Snowmen, variety of materials, but mostly smaller than the Santas...it's the only way we do snow (I live in Southern California). DH says no more Christmas decor--the garage loft is overflowing. Hmmm well, we'll see about that!
dd50 Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 I started collecting nutcrackers a few years ago and now up to 33. I am trying not to buy anymore but in Pennys last week they had a snow man nutcracker in a tropical shorts outfit (I live in FL) and I just had to have it. I do have 2 36" ones that I put inside the front door but they are a pain to put away. I also collect penguins, been doing that since the late 70's.
vicloo Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 Snowmen Hallmark Mary's Angels Ornament Holiday Village Houses (the kind you paint yourself) Red Hat Christmas Ornaments
KittySkyfish Posted November 6, 2007 Posted November 6, 2007 Oh man, I collect so much stuff!! Here's my biggies: Department 56 - Original Snow Village. I normally receive a building or two for Christmas each year. My photo website contains pictures of all my pieces so family can figure out what to get me next...haha! Christmas trees. I collect fake christmas trees as well as smaller glass and ceramic ones. I have some Fenton glass trees and I covet my electric ceramic ones with the plastic lights. Ceramic or glass candy or sweets. I'm always on the lookout for ornaments that have a dessert theme, like cupcakes, candy canes, lollipops, etc. My favorite piece is a 2' high Dept. 56 samovar that is styled after a gingerbread house! Oh so cool!
immortaljackwest Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 I collect Christmas Music... My goal is to make a Christmas mix that can play for 24 hours without a repeat... (even without a repeat of a different version of a song ie no 5 different versions of "The Christmas Song")
cwife Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 snowmen ornaments from all over the place This year Im starting on Gingerbread men snowglobes
Iliveforblckfri Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 I used to collect Disney Snowglobes. I gave that up after my shelves at work came tumbling down on me one afternoon. Now it is Christmas decorations that portray something reading. My favorite is a polar bear reading to a penguin from Hallmark last year.
Shortness Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 Snowmen Me too. I don't really have a lot--they're just my favorite to add to what I have. I try to add a couple new decorations each season.
ajdana726 Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 If there is anything i collect it is ether Tinker Bell or Tigger, i have a mish mosh of all different christmas things, I have a rotating christmas tree stand but i put so many ornaments on it that it is to heavy....I try every year to put less but i just cant i put all of them on...
bluebear Posted November 10, 2007 Posted November 10, 2007 My daughter gets a silver bell every year, has since she was born. Probably the collection is more for me though. Middle DS loves nutcrackers, and youngest DS decided last year that he also wanted nutcrackers, instead of a car ornament. For me, it's trains. Love em. Can't wait to put out my new Lego Christmas train I got last month! And last year I bought all new ornaments, gingerbread and candy. (Couldn't find enough train ornaments to cover a tree.) Now, I've become obsessed with GINGERBREAD TRAINS! DH would like to have lots of penguins. But we're out of room for now. Maybe next time we change themes.
tootsieroll23 Posted November 12, 2007 Posted November 12, 2007 Mine are Santa's, but I think this year I will start collecting snowmen too. I have noticed they are making the snowmen so much cuter now than they used too.
