Accidental Collections....

I think I've started another collection by accident....
...Victorian Napkin Rings. I don't very often get a chance to pick these up, but when I can find them for a good price, I do. Now I have five. Not too many, but I can see more in my future! I love the individual personalities. And I love the monograms. Mine aren't in great condition but I treasure them nevertheless!





So what's your latest accidental collection? I'd love to hear about it!

  2. HA....ha...ha...almost EVERY collection I have started out that way...just see something that I liked..and that usually was all it took to get me started...after a year or so... I would find another "accident" to collect.
    My husband shakes his head...but appreciates that I have that kind of enthusiasm for life and things...including him.

  4. Oh my....I am on the same wavelength as you! LOL I was discussing my accidental collections just this week Too funny. I accidentally began collecting pink bears, vintage jars and recently vintage Putz houses (to name a few). I tend to think the accidental collections are the ones that were meant to be!
    Warm regards,

  7. LOVE your collection of silver napkin rings! I have a few and I love the ones with monograms the best...even if they are not our initials. Sometimes accidental collections are the best! Thanks for sharing ~ xo Joy
