Displaying my collectibles



Here is my teddy bear collection - the top row are bears from overseas - Beefeater from London, England; Honalulu Hard Rock Cafe; London England; the Kiwi Bird from New Zealand (my dad got me that one). BTW - that brown bear on the bottom left was my first teddy bear (from my memory) - it is a good 30 years old!!



On my other shelves are dolls - the two dolls (2nd and 3rd doll from the left) in the middle on the middle shelf is how my doll collecting all began. June 1974 (would have been 3 years old). It was June 1974 that my dad went to Moscow, Russia for a conference and that was the gift that he brought back from me. The doll on the left (black hat) that was what he bought my sister Kathryn. So these dolls are over 35 years old!! The doll on the right on that shelf was given to me from David and Erin - it is from Mongolia. I hope to add a Siberian/Tuvan doll to my collection when I go there in person (hopefully soon like next year).



A local store (Linen N Things) were going out of business and I saw these collage photo frames. I thought they would be perfect for my large empty walls - what do you think? Do you like this set up?
