Hello Pin Lovers,

I'm new to the forum but I have been collecting/trading since 2001. I still have a lot to learn and figure out around here but I have been trying to explore some different areas of the site in order to get a handle on things. I have to say my first impression of this site is great and I look forward to spending some time with you all. This truly seems like a fantastic place for everyone to share their love for pins. As you can probably tell by my name I love to collect Splash Mountain/Song of the South Pins. I also have a good number of Easter pins in my collection as well. Mostly do to the fact that my family and I have been visiting WDW every Easter since 1993. Besides building up my own collection I also really enjoy checking out all the unique collections of my fellow pin lovers. I just think it's amazing how everybody has such different and wonderful collections. I'm really excited to become a part of this amazing family and even though Disney pin trading may have seen its better days, I still hope that everyone here continues to enjoy this great hobby as much as I do.

Thanks Everyone and Happy Pin Collecting.
 
Hi
Welcome to DPF!Where in Michigan are you from?

Hello and thanks TiggerMickey. I think I have a pretty good idea of what characters you might like HAHAHA. I love them both too. My sister REALLY loves Tigger and of course Mickey is the Best Mouse Ever. I live about an hour north of Detroit, so I am not real close to the Indiana border but still compared to where a lot of my fellow pin traders live you are just right down the road. I think I could consider you almost my neighbor. Anyway thanks again for the welcome TiggerMickey.
 
Welcome :) I hope you enjoy your stay here, I have! As for myself, I usually collect Orange Birds, Ariel, or attractions. :)

My mom collects any of the Orange Bird pins that she can find so I will have to do some searching and see if you two could help each other out in someway.
I love attraction pins too. I particularly love the ones where characters are enjoying a specific attraction. I know some people seem to only like the pins with just the name of the attraction or the attractions logo but I like the pins that have characters who appear to either be having fun or are terrified. I guess in a way those pins remind me of how I would probably feel when experiencing that attraction. I'll keep an eye open for you anyway.

Oh I like pins like that too! Especially if its the Hitchhiking Ghosts. I'm trying to complete a set like that at the moment... just two more pins to go. XD

Howdy Lady Dobbins, I just checked out your pins on PP, sorry that I don't have any pins that you need but I have to say you have a really unique and beautiful collection. I really love them and I think your collection is coming along really well. I love the idea that you are collecting mainly just the hitchhikers and I especially love the ones where they are riding an attraction. I think that it is so funny to see them guys on a ride other than their own. My mom would love the Dumbo one that you have in your collection and I am still trying to find the Splash Mountain one for myself. Hopefully someday my mom and I will be able to add them to our collection like you. Well it was nice checking out your pins and hopefully I will be able to help you out someday. Keep up the great collection.

Thank you! Yeah I find that set very cute; when I first started collecting the Hitchhikers those pins were very high on my wants list. I hope you can find them also!

Your collection looks great too! :) I didn't get to go on Splash Mountain when I was at WDW; and they don't have it at DLRP. Hopefully one day I'll get to ride it though.
