That's a nice collection, Teresa, and some of those eggs are lovely.

It almost makes me wish I collected something. Hmmm. Maybe I could collect hundred dollar bills?

Annie

Thanks for sharing your collection. My mother collects them too. I like all the eggs you found to show off the cups to their best advantage!

Not sure if this will work....but this is a seasonal collection.....and only part of it.....and everyone uses at least 2 batterys!!

Here is a link that might be useful: {{gwi:1471370}}

Well... a forbidden site of things that use batteries....uh, but those wouldn't be seasonal items, would they. >;-)

So you tried to sneak some risque items in here, eh, Susan!?!??!?

LindaC, I got "forbidden" too. A site of battery operated devices, hmmmm?

Annie

Well.....so much for Kodak....I'll stick to photobucket!

Teresa, oh, those eggs and eggcups are pretty. Glad you posted them.

Jayne

Linda, those are great! Do you ever have them all going at once? Do they move? Sing? Talk? I bet that would be a great sight!

They all move and sing....and there are several more...singing angel moose and singing angel bear....sweet Christmas bell carols while the wings wave!..And Frosty the melting snow man....who grows shorter and taller while singing, you know what...the chicken in the moose ears, which hops and plays the Chicken Dance, and the red Crayfish, that jumps and sings "Hot-Hot-Hot"...
It's a bit of a disease!! LOL!

Teresa your egg cups are lovely .

Linda that looks like a fun collection. My friend Elaine just got a fuzzy stuffed reindeer rocking in a rocking chair & he sings " Gramma Got Run Over by a Reindeer"--they've run the batteries down twice since she bought it !

LindaC, I have a "Billy Bass" that wears a Santa Hat and sings "Jingle Bells" ending with a "Yee Haw". It was a gag gift and it's so tacky that I really like him.

I'll have to look for one for you. LOL

Annie

The egg cups are really cool, I would trade for that lustreware one (hing-hing) and Linda! is that an Amarylis in bloom? It is gorgeous! What a Christmas showpiece!

Yep....one of the smarter things I have done......bought 3 bulbs for $2.50 each at WallyWorld....and planted them in one pot just before Thanks giving......

Oh my gosh, those so beautiful!!!

Teresa - those are beautiful!

LindaC - you are a hoot!

Hey Linda do any of those bears vibrate?

(DUCKING AND SPRINTING FOR COVER)

Every one of them!!! ( ask me how I know)

OK Linda I'll, er, bite. How do you know?

Jessica, be careful.....

Since I don't have a collection of anything, except maybe dust bunnies, I took a picture of Ashley's collection. She and her sister have been collecting Christmas themed snowglobes for several years. Amanda took hers, but she sends them back to reside in my basement every year. These are Ashley's.

This is the first one she got, and her favorite.

{{gwi:1471375}}

If you look closely you can see an FAO Schwartz globe that she got on a trip to Chicago and some 101 Dalmations globes that came with McDonald's Happy Meals some years ago, so she has a little bit of everything.

Amanda found out that they aren't invincible, though. She had a globe with Winnie the Pooh dressed as a snowman and Pooh would spin in the globe when it was wound. Makayla loved it and wanted it wound all the time, until a couple of weeks ago when Makayla dropped it on the floor and broke it to pieces. :-( I was so sympathetic. I told her it was one thing less to dust and pack up.

Annie

Was this it, Annie?

{{gwi:1471376}}

Annie...I have a Coca Cola Christmas snow globe that was a gift for signing up for something.....would she like that?
If so....yell quick before it disappears into that black hole of a basement!
Linda C

Nope, Jessica, that's not it. Sigh. I've been on ebay, on all the disney collectible sites I can find, I can't find that dam*able snowglobe. Hers only had a single snowman inside, with Pooh's face, wearing a blue hat. It had a magnet type mechanism that made the snowman spin while the music played. The snowman was not "attached", if you shook the globe the snowman would float around, and he was weighted so he always landed upright, like a Weeble. Amanda is sad because it was her first snowglobe and Makayla is sad because it was her favorite. It looks like they'll both just have to get over it.

LindaC, I'm sure she would love it, if you don't use it. I usually add to the collection at the after Christmas sales. LOL

Lovely collections. Ken has an egg cup collection too and also a shot glass collection - 2 things near and dear to his heart! I have never been a collector, but lately seem to be drawn to the Annalee Christmas dolls - I have 3, one is 20 years old, one is 5 years old and one is brand new this year.....I think I'll need a new one next year.
