You see them all of the time, new lists of the hot collectibles. If you have ever been by my blog it won't surprise you what my favorite collectibles are. I am very fond of photographing them. I have some favorites that I consider very photogenic. My all time favorite collectible is transferware. Pictured above is two patterns from Johnson Brothers, that I bought thriftly at a discount store.
This pattern is also by Johnson Brothers. I went to an auction with my Dad years ago and he bought me a whole box of this for $13. It was the very end of the auction and not too many people were still hanging around. I love deals like that!
This is a new collection for me. I have only had this large pitcher for a long time but, lately I have been picking up many pieces of ironstone very inexpensively at thrift stores and discount stores.
This is my husbands favorite collectible. He likes my pewter collection. I find pieces of this also in thrift stores, but the original collection came to me from my family.
Maps & globes are a hot item right now. I have always considered them an asset when decorating. I picked these up at discount stores, yard sales, and an antique store.
I have always identified with Belle from Beauty and the Beast (Disney version), with her nose stuck in a book. I love antique books. The ones that get my attention are from my favorite authors or poetry.
This is just a few of my favorite collectibles. What are yours?
