What things do you collect that brings you joy? In my eyes anything can be collected. For me it's not about the price or what I can get for them it's about the joy I get from having them.
I have 3 different things I have that I collect.
. The smallest and admittedly weirdest thing I collect are Star Wars themed Coffee Mate creamers. Me and my wife are huge coffee drinkers as well as Star Wars fans so it does make sense. They made 5 different ones with various flavors and i have 4. R2D2 (French Vanilla), C3PO (Hazelnut), Darth Vader (Chocolate Espresso) and Boba Fett (Italian Sweet Cream). The only one I'm missing is Chewbacca (Spiced Latte) and I can't find him anywhere. Sadly this may be a collection I will never finish.
. The thing I've been collecting the longest is Magic the Gathering trading cards. I've been playing since middle school so I have thousands of cards and a dozen decks I've made from scratch. This collection is ever growing and I'll probably collect them until the day I die or Wizards of the Coast goes out of business.
. My pride and joy though is my collection of antique books. Near me is an antique/curiosity shop and they have a lot of really old books. I am a complete bibliophile so when I would go in there with my wife I would look at the books. The first one i bought was a copy of Gulliver's Travels that's anywhere between 96-149 years old. They newest I have is my copy of The Magic of Xanth (The first three books in the Xanth series) from 1977 + 1979. This is the newest I'll go because they wouldn't be antiques and even this one is pushing it. Today I bought a copy of Pinocchio published in 1949 which I think is awesome. Next on my list is a 2 book set of fairy tales, one book written by the brothers Grimm and the other written by Hans Christian Andersen for only $24. I'll never get bored of finding antique books.The
