Ever notice something around your house that you have an absurd amount of? Are you ashamed or proud of it? I don't care, share it here.

Anything dinosaur related. If you can name it I probably have it in my collection. I have books, movies, posters, jewelry, toys, clothes, bedding, artwork, and actual dinosaur fossils. The coolest pieces of my collection are a colouring book from the first Jurassic Park movie, the scene where the guy says clever girl then gets attacked by a velociraptor in Funko Pop form, and a actual dinosaur leg bone with fossilized bone marrow inside. I have quite the collection of dinosaur things.

My family just collects random Harry Potter things. We’ve got 27+ Funkos, like 10 Lego sets, an tin of posters, knickknacks and clothes, all seven books, four illustrated copies, the play, two copies of each movie, an openable golden snitch and an openable golden egg. I think that’s it… there’s probably more though.

Everything. Like if I have 2 things that are similar, eg two key rings, I will want more keyrings. I have so many feathers. I have so many rocks. I have the weirdest collections - bones, sticks, fossils, plastic, metal, glass, whatever.

Rocks! I've been collecting them for years, whether it be a cool looking rock, a crystal, or a rock from a special place. Rocks can't hurt my feelings

Anything shiny, pointy, small, metal, or basically any little trinket. I have a whole box full of nails, pebbles, bent paper clips, plastic hearts, gears, little electronic bits, anything you can think of. And they’re pretty useful, too!

A hedgehog lives just outside my fence... he's so much fun to watch, even though he makes my dogs crazy. Bought the dogs a giant stuffed hedgehog ...aaaaand they won't go near it.

Good one! Dictionaries and encyclopedias were my favorites as a kid.

Nancy Drew Books. My mom and aunts would read them when they were young, and they passed some along to me. I still have the ones they gave me, which includes an original edition of the first of the series, with the dustcover! I have spent the majority of my young adult/adult life collecting the entire series, all the same edition (early ed. if not first). I still have a few to locate, but I have started passing them on to my niece. She gets one column a year - Vol 1 when she turned one, Vol 2 when she turned two, and so on. I figure I'll give her the entire (hopefully complete) collection when she turns 10 or 12.

*Volume, not column. Couldn't find a way to edit my submission. I'll figure this out eventually.

Boxes and containers. And bags. I am a total bag lady. I don’t know why I collect them, and I do have a rule that if they start to spill out of my closet, then I will throw some away. But I just love boxes and bags for some reason.

Superballs! I love those little rubber things. I have a gumball machine filled with them at my house.

And Present Mic merch. I own the only life sized doll of the guy, along with "too many" buttons, standees, figures, plush, keychains... it's about the only thing displayed all over my bedroom.

I have a memory box of things that I've collected and kept over the years. Ticket stubs from concerts, birthday cards, letters from friends and family members, old key chains, trinkets and doodads from vacations I've taken, anything that is /was special goes in the box. Once in awhile I go through it and it brings back all sorts of great memories.

Yarn. I used to do a lot of knitting but nowadays I don't really get the chance to with work and focusing on my health. I still have a lot of it that's color coded...maybe I should just make a big blanket with it or sit down and make a bunch of sweaters and stuff and give them away next winter. That might be nice.

I collect movie novelizations. It has to be a book based on a screenplay, not a book that was turned into a movie. For example, a book by Stephen King doesn't count. But the novelization of the first Friday The 13th film does.

Recently I started collecting stickers (I have them organized in a binder), but I also have a ton of books. I was at a craft fair and got a bar of soap, so then my mom got me more bars of soap. They have little animal figures on top and the colors are nice, too. I also have a lot of dragon-related stuff (toys, books, etc), and I have a ton of dolls as well.

I collect downvotes, internet stalkers, harrassment and hate-mail. Thanks Bored Panda!... Alot of the houses I work on are about as old as the country theyre standing in, so I also have a collection of antique beer and soda bottles and cans that I find under customer's houses. As well as other items. Ive found old coins. Its mostly bottles tho.
