  I was thinking about this a day ago and was wondering if there were any collectors on the site.

  
  

  I collect pin buttons! Vintage ones mostly, but I occasionally buy some fan-made ones of series I like. I gravitate the most towards ones from the later half of the 20th century. A lot of them I do not know the ages of (I mostly buy them at antique stores) but the majority of the ones I have seem to be from the 80's and 90's.

  But I ain't got a hammer / And I ain't got a pencil / And I ain't got a lasso / So I'm doing it the hard way / Like a post post-modern man

  I have been so all over the place with trying different hobbys this summer...

  I was on a book kick for a while, going to thrift stores and finding interesting books to add to my collection, i did actually read some of them too, heh

  I don't know if it's really caught on yet, but i've been looking into little tea cups and saucers, i think they are so cute, i don't even drink tea. i bought one little set so far.

  i just enjoy going to thrift stores and getting random things that are unique ;]

  I like stuff. lots of stuff. 😌

  I collect plushies, used to be big on pokemon and neopets plush but lean a lot more towards small artist made ones now.

  enamel pins

  crystals and bones and dead things, but I try to make sure they're ethically sourced, and most my bones I get from hiking.

  and then whatever i end up hyperfocusing on and being obsessed with fbakfhsjd

  Rocks and the rare chance of a fossil. (I usually forget to take them out of my purse, so I get the lovely saying when people pick it up..."Its so heavy, what do you have inside you purse? Rocks??" Which I gleeful say YES!! (my family just roll there eyes! *sad*)

  
  

  Bones...usually the skulls, teeth, hornes/antlers, and snake skin...

  
  

  And of course, as an Entomologist...dead insects
