Kelly, I ...I love hearing about these collections! Kelly, I think an all-white display is stunning, and I love the texture of hobnail. Ren, maybe I'll share images of creative display for collections one of these days. And Renee, I'm with you: ANY collection means a lot of dusting, but black? I generally figure that a couple paying a curator to plan and collect their collection probably pays someone to dust it for them. They probably also collect diamonds.Heather Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14508647517363572236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12024345092664896.post-24868996137920739362011-03-13T13:43:54.063-05:002011-03-13T13:43:54.063-05:00I keep telling my husband I collect diamonds, but ...I keep telling my husband I collect diamonds, but he's not buying it. <br />I've not been much of a collector, but I do love my china cabinet that's filled with crystal of various kinds, mostly wedding gifts. <br />I look at the picture and I kind of like how it looks, but the practical side of me is completely turned off - how in the world would you dust all that? And black? You'd have to dust it daily. Forget it. :)Renee Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02840169145784140801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12024345092664896.post-68039914062435555112011-03-13T11:03:26.780-05:002011-03-13T11:03:26.780-05:00I'm kind of a collector by nature.

I've collected a number of things over the years, starting with the obligatory sticker collection in elementary school, and it was so bad that for a while in high school I had a collection of useless objects (which started as a joke, but grew from there). When I got my first apartment I realized I had to limit my collections. Now the only thing I collect is dragons. I only have a couple of them on display right now (on my mantel). The rest are in boxes waiting for me to figure out how/where to create a display for them - one of my collection (as it were) of unfinished projects.<br /> -Ren.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12024345092664896.post-44809221497160099032011-03-13T10:47:43.250-05:002011-03-13T10:47:43.250-05:00very cliche but I have white hobnail milkglass fro...very cliche but I have white hobnail milkglass from fenton.
