I am obsessed with candles and notebooks (or stationery in general). I have quite a few notebooks and I always make notes in them, or write down ideas. The problem is I usually don't end up re-reading them so I forget. I have lit my winter scented Yankee candle and now I am going through notebooks to try to organize everything before the new year. I don't want my desk to be a mess in the new year. What do you like to collect??

The digital world almost replaced my notebooks. All my notes and ideas go on mobile apps.

It's not a bad thing, at least they are not cutting down trees to make them.

That's interesting, what kind of figurines, plastic, porcelain or toys?

Cool, keychains are fun to collect since there are so many varieties.

Sounds like you have some beautiful collections. I use notebooks too to write things down so I don't forget them. I always have lists of things. And I do refer to my notebook daily, sometimes several times a day as needed. But my notebooks are just a basic general purpose one - I try to get the cheapest ones out there, so they are not the prettiest thing worth collecting but certainly do the job as my notes...

I also have many cheap ones, the more 'pretty' ones I use for writing down my academic work. For notes, I use the cheap ones.

I love stationary too but I try to avoid buying notebooks as I have more than enough now. I don't go out to buy them but I still seem to accumulate them.

As of now, I collect handkerchieves and I use them. It is nice to have a collection which I can use.

@tzwrites I also collect scarves. I use them at the office to keep me warm. I usually would wrap my head with it when the blow of the airconditioner is so cold.

Nest candles smell amazing! You must have a nice collection if you collect so many different things.

I collect the same things as you. In my case, I often light up the candles (and incense, etc). I write diary whenever I have the time as a kind of record keeping.

@tzwrites you collect cards? ID cards, keycards from hotels? We travelled lots in the past, one of my children asked if he could keep all those hotel keycards for his collection.
