So, has I have been away a while as well as it being 2 years since I joined the forum. I thought it would be a good opportunity to show where I left off last year before I start receiving trades and purchases again as I then decide to wait till the next pins in the post comes before I take pictures of my whole collection but as it kept on building I never got round to taking any pictures.

I have to say I never thought when I started out I would acquire so many pins and collections!

A Big Thank you to everyone who has helped me acquire pins through trades and purchases as well as everyone for making pin trading the fun experience it is on DPF!!!

This is what I started with 2 years ago.....

Please excuse awful picture quality, it is taking from my phone in a not so well lit room while the phone was still charging......not ideal conditions!!

Oh I love your collections! I laughed so hard when I scrolled down the Siamese Cats and saw the picture of your two fur babies... I thought I was going to see a collection of ACTUAL cats, and I thought to myself, oh no, another crazy cat person like me...grabbing cats off the streets... If I ever get a quality picture of those cute baby skunks living in the brush behind my house I am going to say they are a part of my FLOWER collection hehehe! :crazy:

I love all of your collections! So many hidden gems!

I'm glad you are back to the Forum and to collecting!
 
Thanks everyone for your comments, I may have to create a thread dedicated to my kitties, they are just as mischieveous as Si and Am though probably a bit less mean as they love everyone they meet.

It has been lovely to show my collection off as even two years in I am always amazed how pretty pins look and the amount and variety that there are!! Some of the pins themselves come with their own stories and meaning,
the Atlantis Lanyard I traded from someone who took part in the race and were able to tell me about it.
Mufasa and Simba under the stars is the first pin I traded with a member on DPF face to face.
Pumba cast lanyard pin was traded with a cast member who remembed I was looking for it and found it especially as she knew that the following day was going to be the last day of my holiday to DLRP.
I have many more I could tell. It is amazing how small pieces of metal can have such emotion and memories attached to them. In trading I have found a wonderful community I am so proud to be a part of,..... okay went a bit mushy, its getting late here lol

I am thinking of creating a board for my Disney dreams pins as with the core pins and everything it is very shortly not going to fit in my bag!!!
 
Thank you for all your lovely comments and my kitties also say thanks for all your comments about them, they may even pose for a new photo at somepoint!!

Oh well, its a great photo never-the-less. I still say you should have your Si and Am wanted pins on a signature, which your cats as the background. :D
