Collecting


So for the past few months I've had a bit of a collection. A vintage camera collection to be exact. And those cameras are some of my favourite things. Some I have picked up at garage sales, others I bought at antique shops, but they are all so different and unique. I find it so fascinating to research the different types I have, and see how rare or how old they are. I just love these little gems. So far I have eight. I have only used two of them, but even that makes me happy. I have more collections; a pin collection (of pins from around the world), a coin collection, and a card collection. But I LOVE my camera collection.

  Yesterday was my birthday, so we went up to a cute little town called Bobcaygeon. Just like last year we went to the fair, and had a blast. Then me and Brooke stopped at a little vintage shop, and let's just say...I died and went to heaven. I was freaking out! There were cameras, typewriters, old suitcases, and records everywhere! I melted. {and got emotionally attached to almost everything I picked up}


In the end I settled for these guys.
