I collect giraffes. I have giraffe statues from all over the world. Some are quite beautiful. When people know you collect something, they want to add to your collection and that is what happens. I have some made of soap, some made of real gold, and some painted the most beautiful colors. One of my favorites is made of burlap! They are the most fascinating creatures and I think, quite astonishing, when one thinks of how they give birth!
I read up on some facts about giraffes and the giving birth was a bit of a worry. They do it standing up and the baby drops quite some distance in the process!!! I collect Dutch clogs and you are right when you say that people enjoy adding to your collection. I have some 200 now made of all sorts of material and from tiny 1/4" size to a full sized clog.

I collect frogs and have so many all over the house and in the Garden. It's awesome and more are always welcome!

Say Toadalove--would you rather be Frogalove or do toads count also? Just being silly. I always liked frogs myself. The coloring on tree frogs is awesome. I don't collect any more. When a child I caught/collected butterflies but an insensitive teacher destroyed my collection and I never replaced it.

No, I love Toadalove! Been with me for a long time now! Toads do count too!
