I just went through my pins yesterday and had a chance to take some decent pictures of them! :) Henceforth, I wanted to share with my pin buddies my updated pin bags ^.^




~ Pin Book 1 ~

I will start with my Disney Shopping bag- I absolutely love the design of this and wish Disney not only made their pin bags like this again (no rubber pages), but also wish they would have made more of a variety - We love pin bags, Disney! :D

(Aw, you can see a little bit of my puppy lounging next to my bed =>)

Here is the first page- it's a little bit of my favorite characters, mixed in with cuteness, mixed in with my love for creative writing- I'm really happy with how it turned out! <3

DS.com Pin Page 1:

My next page features Neverland and Wonderland pins - I was going to devote a separate page for each and in time I might do that again, but for now I kind of like them meshing together :)

Up next is my Princess Page - it has changed a lot through having to downsize, but I really love the way it looks now. I have space left for a few more princesses around the border (trying to get some nice frame ones of some of the ones I don't have yet), and around the bottom. I'd love to fill in some of the space on the bottom with the enchanted beloved tales, and the stained glass brave... we will see what my budget can handle :lol:

Next page is blank... oh the possibilities!

And the last page is of my Mickey Collection - I love my cartoon mickeys!! =)

~ Pin Book 2 ~

This is my Cast Member book- the book I really credit to getting me into serious pin trading :lol:

And this first page is made up of the first Pin of the Month series I ever collected, and the stamp collection I quested after at the start of my pin collecting. :hsd:

This is a work in progress Disneyland page- I'm not sure if I'll keep the Ticket DLR ones that have been coming out this year, but I do think they are nice so I might make room for them on another page. The hinged posters that border the page were my favorites from the series <3

CM Page 2:

Will definitely try to focus more on my DCA page throughout this year. Disney did an excelling job with the redo and I'm finally in love with that Park! :D

The last two pages... have yet to be filled. Oh the possibilites! XD

~ Shadowbox ~

And displayed proudly on my desk is the beautiful shadowbox that lost_sun_princess designed for me. She is an amazing artist and I love the way my alice treasures look in it!!

Not pictured yet is my little mickey cork board with my memory pins, and my DSF Pin bag which is yet to be filled. Stay tuned! :)


Thanks so much DPF for letting me share my updated collection with you guys and hope you all enjoy!! :wavey:

Thank you!! And it truly is a treasure in my collection- really brings my "tea set" decorations on my desk together! ^.^ Thank you again!! :hug:

Great collection :) I love that neverland map pin you have. Haven't seen that one before!

Thank you! HiddenMickeys shared a photo of hers in the mail day thread and I was so happy she did or I never would have known it existed either! ^.^


Thanks so much everyone for your sweet comments- so happy to be able to share my collection with you guys!! :D
 
Squeeeee!


I wanted to post my update on my Princess Page which is nearing completion! :hsd: I had nearly written of the Princess Carousel set when they were initially released as (1) I was really disappointed with how Rapunzel came out and (2) I was afraid they would be too much hassle to collect. I still tried trading for them though and I was ecstatic when I made a trade for belle and jasmine- my two favorite from the set! <3 Well, that got the ball rolling :lol: and now I have the 7 that I most wanted from the series \o/


So I thought I'd share with my pin friends how they look in my book! ^.^

And wow they are more detailed in person that I had first thought- pictures don't do them justice! <3

So, yay!! My princess page is almost complete!! :hsd:
 
Your collection is simply beautiful ^_^! I especially love your shadowbox, such a Lovely idea!! I hope if one day I manage to get the designer doll Pocahontas pin and some of my most wanted Pocahontas pins, to create a shadowbox like this ^_^!

Thank you so much!!! Oh I imagine a Pocahontas shadowbox would be so stunning!! :) The ever awesome J'aimie (lost-sun-princess) created my shadowbox, and does many other beautiful commissions! So just in case you were wanting someone to commission one, this is her thread :D Thanks so much again for the kind words and all the best on your pocahontas designer pin quest!! :hsd:
 
what a great collection! love the shadowbox

Great additions!

Thank you guys so much!! =)

Wonderful collection!! I love how you have them arranged in the bags :)

Aw thank you as well Becky!! :) I love when pages start coming together - it makes me appreciate the art of each pin so much more, and there's no wrong way to arrange them either! :D


Speaking of the carousel pins... => I found Ariel and Rapunzel carousel for good prices today, so it looks like I might have to make room for them :doh: :lol: and I might even try for a Tiana since she's the only one that I need to complete the set. I will just have to not focus on Rapunzels face - at least Maximus looks nice, no? =P
