ty and i have recently discovered that we have a serious problem: we collect stuff. so, i'd like to blame my grampa elwood jackson. and so would ty.

me:

sunflower anythings

audrey hepburn anythings

things that hang (ie. like, with hooks...its quite a general term, but i'd like to keep it that way...)

picture frames

pictures
quotes

glass stars

glass balls
buttons

movies

books
journals
sewing supplies
tea cups
antique china
magazine ads
vintage magazines
shoes
dresses
amber jewellery

ty: (disclaimer by ty: the first 4 on this list are purely "accidental" collections. he vows to get rid of all but one of everything, eventually...)
record players
amps and preamps
speakers
miscellaneous electronic equipment
different types of wood
vintage and antique radios
tools
authentic recipes
vintage ties
cuff links
cheeses (yes, we have quite a collection in our refrigerator...)

us:
music
records
vintage light bulbs
lamps
old cameras
lenses
elephants
tightly sealable glass jars (like, to put our food in)
art

luckily, thanks to second hand stores, ebay/kijiji, and the people of ontario's blessed tradition of leaving things they don't want on their front lawn for anyone to take, our addictions can be quite cheap. here are some of our most beloved finds.

love,
r&y
