      Oh! You have a Mambo!!!!! That’s one I would love to have. 🙂
      I also collect model horses, Breyers/Peter Stones/Resins. I might post some pics when I get home….I can’t display them all because I don’t have the room, but I try to have some favorites out. They also get rearranged when I go to a show because then not everyone gets unpacked. I should really take some pics of my show table at the next show I go to….it would probably show them better.

      Model horses are my main obsession, although my collection isn’t huge. I love Breyers, of course, but I also have some Peter Stones, a few customs and resins.
      I also have a My Little Pony collection – mostly G1 adult ponies, but also some G3s, G4s and customs I’ve gotten through swaps, etc.
      I have most of the “signature” Ever After High dolls, although I stopped buying them when the quality went down…as well as some random Monster High dolls.
      And quite a few stuffed animals, mostly Beanie Babies, Pokemon and My Little Pony

      I don’t have any good pictures of my office – which I call my “toy store” – but I have individual pics of most of my model horses and a few other things on my website: http://ashleyevans28.wixsite.com/dashesndots/model-horse-collection

      Love baby kirins, safari poads, mini keepers, and anything BLUE, BLUE, and, oh yes, BLUE.

        Lol! I also collect art supplies… really have too much to deal with, and it’s all over the place.
        And it’s not just my collections that collect dust x.x

                    I collect crystals and mineral specimens and other brightly colored pretty rocks. I display them all with my Windstone figures in their own little curio cabinet that my mother left me.

                            Thank you Bodine! I think the matched pair you mention are actually Frosty & Flurry, Breyer web specials. But they were standing next to the Dapple Grey Welsh Cheval and I didn’t want him to look lonely.

                            For My air plants I keep them in a north window. The ones in glass globes I mist every 4 or 5 days with plain water. The ones set on the wood piece I mist every 2 or 3 days.
                            Most people say to use rain water on them, but I haul all the water for my house (no water lines within 7 miles of my place) and put it into a cistern so most of the chemicals are evaporated out of it by time it gets used on the plants. I have a friend in the UK who uses rain water and his seem to bloom really well each year.
                            Then once a month I have a fertilizer for bromeliads that I add to a sink of water (about a quarter of the recommended strength) and I toss all the air plants into that to soak for an hour or so.
                            If something happens and they go a few extra days without misting, I will just toss em into the sink for a bit to let em get a good drink and they seem to recover quickly.

                            The other thing I suggest is finding a good seller. Buying them from walmart or some other store of that type can be hit n miss, half of them are already dead or so stressed that they probably will be in a week or two.
                            There are a few good sellers on eBay for them. And a few online nurseries for them as well.

                            Good luck!

                              Thanks to you, Ms. Melody, I now have a lovely collection of gashapon goldfish. This is only part of it.
                               photo 001_zpsrvoqr70m.jpg

                              There are some weird Star Wars fish too, getting them inspired by the gashapons.

                              I collect dragons in general, although Windstone does spoil you for other makes. I like very few dragons now. I have a couple McFarlanes, and just as few Enchanticas/Dragonsites (a big part of not having more of either is inability to find them and affording them when I can, don’t like either quite as well as Windstones and won’t pay the same for them). There’s one GG Santiago/Enesco one, and a few unknown makes. There are also a very few ‘toy’ ones I like, the Safari water dragon and a family by Schleich.

                              I also collect/grow orchids.

                              And have had rock and shell collections, much of which has been lost in moves but I add neat new ones as I can.

                              Sorry I’ve tried to add photos of a little of it, but Photobucket is a total butt. Will try again when I can.

                                Pipsxlch I really like your fish. I have never seen anything like them.
