Finally, my big cork board with everything else I collect:
Mickey and Minnie Together, Alice in Wonderland, Up, bottle caps, carousel and train series, tinkerbell/peter pan, DLRP parade pins, mickey and friends, magic kingdom rides, pinocchio etc....If you pay really close attention, at the bottom left of the 4 frame photo strip is a blue Ravenclaw pin! I got it at Islands of Adventure in Harry Potter world, and while it's not disney I figured it would make a nice addition :)

Thanks! I've been collecting seriously for a year and a half...prior to that I had about 10 pins I had collected in the last 6 years before. I need to resize the photos on my board and print updated ones that represent my smaller collections. I wish I could find a new pin board!
 
My pin order from Shane arrived today!!:wavey: 21 beautiful new pins! :stitch: 6 of them stitch, and the others include tinkerbell, peter pan, mickey, princesses, alice etc :madhatter:....Once I print out the new pictures I'll post them in this thread!
 
I agree, I like putting photos in there that go with the collection. Part of what I like about pins is how they remind me of my trip, so putting the photos in makes a lot of sense. I'm going to have to steal that idea.

Also, I think it's interesting that I have collected a lot of the same pins that you are showing, and I got them by trading in the park. Which makes me think you probably collected them trading at WDW also, and how there seems to be the same pins on the lanyards across the property. Seems like whenever I go, there are always the same bunch of pins showing up on lanyards for a certain amount of time. Makes me wonder how that works.
 
Very nice collection. My granddaughter became a big stitch fan also after she grew out of the princess stage which was a very sad day. Like the added pictures to your cork boards too.
 
Yay, I finally filled the empty space on my cork board! Here's a bump for my thread so you can all see what's new, (New pictures in the FIRST post), these are the original photos that I took. Since I've gotten a pin lot of 21 new pins and a few others as trades, I had to do some re-arranging and I didn't want to crowd my first post with too many pictures...

Oh hey, thanks for the compliments guys! I have not been to this forum in about 2 months since my last disney trip. I went with 23 pins to trade and came back with an EMPTY lanyard and 26 new pins. I think that's a pretty successful trip! (I may have bought a pin or 2 on the way...)
 
Thanks for the welcome messages! I've been so busy with working a bunch and applying to graduate schools. I'm really not active with the pin trading hobby like I used to be, I used to trade pins through pinpics all the time! Now I've decided it's easier just to buy my pins before a disney trip and do my trading in the parks. I save a lot of money by not searching for holy grails to buy, etc.
