I Don't Collect These

When I was sorting and putting away all the poke sack loot I realized how many needle threaders I have managed to accumulate. The key word here is ACCUMULATE. Another one of those things I never buy on purpose and yet here they are, poke sack collateral. The funny thing is, I never, ever use one. I always thread needles the old fashioned way. But if I ever need one I'm set!
What do you accumulate??

Annette said...: Well that's an interesting accumulation! The only thing I seem to have accumulated lately is dust bunnies.; November 16, 2012 at 8:12 PM
Blessed Serendipity said...: How nice that you can thread a needle the old fashioned way. Your eyesight is better than mine. I agree with oldgreymare - you need to incorporate these into a project or make something out of them. As far as accumulating things...I am guilty of accumulating lots of things. Happy hunting this weekend. I hope you find some more things to accumulate.

Andy's Attic said...: No fair asking what I accumulate. I already have too many "collections" and now you want me to count my "accumulations"? No way.... :>); November 17, 2012 at 9:20 AM

My Vintage Mending said...: I accumulate these as well and I use them...often times the style of thread dictates if I need one..The older ones are the best as they were soldered together better.. The new ones that are made in china break within the first or second threading...keep accumulating...smiles..Renee; November 17, 2012 at 2:29 PM
Linda Carole Bloom said...: Books! Lots and lots of books! Every spring I donate a big pile to the library and while I'm there, I buy another big pile and lug them all home and put them back on the shelves again. Go figure!; November 17, 2012 at 10:25 PM

Into Vintage said...: Just recently, it seems the accumulated Christmas ornaments are starting to stack up around here. No idea how that happens.

What crafty plans do you have for your accumulation?; November 18, 2012 at 12:04 PM
Laurie said...: Seriously -- I have begun to use those and I never seem to be able to find one when I need it, despite best efforts! What I seem to accumulate is crochet needles and I don't crochet anymore! And elastic.; November 20, 2012 at 2:33 PM
