I started off collecting lighthouses. Then people were giving them to me as gifts & I had to many. So I changed about 7 years ago & started collecting mermaids. I wanted to stay with the nautical theme. I grew up & later have always lived on or near water. Here are just a few.

I collect snowman items and old country style kitchen things. I have an antique kraut cutter, nut choppers, sifters, mashers, many blue canning jars of various sizes with zinc lids, etc.

Picking up on an old thread:
In the 80s, I collected butterflies and thimbles. Sold the butterlies and daughter took the thimbles. In the 90s, I collected lighthouses. They were taking over my house, so they're boxed in the attic. My Sister was making porcelin dolls for several years, so she gave me a few and I have them displayed, but never really collected them. My Hubby makes and collects knives, so that takes a bit of space. I've inherited a collection of different teacups, saucers, and plates, but I don't collect them. For the last 10 years or so, I can't get interested in collecting. I thought perfume bottles, bought one and quit. I thought pill boxes, got a couple and quit. I see everything as being dust collectors. I'd love to have a Chamilia, Pandora, or Biagi bracelet and then collect charms. I could put that on my wish list to my Hubby and the kids.

You're going to have to post a picture of your figurines because I don't know what they are.
