Our Collection and New Storage!!

[andrea]

I am so proud of my hubby, I just had to take pictures to show it off! He built some adorable shelves/risers for Maggie's pets so we can show off the whole collection. In the process, we sorted all our pets and came up with 150 (not counting the few things I'm keeping MIB)! I painted them pink to match a collage frame I made her to hold her princess photos from Disney World. She is so proud of her pets and loves naming all of them for anyone who will listen. The only problem I can see is that we are already almost out of room! Of well, I guess Daddy will have to make some more

What a cool shelf!!! It looks really great! Wonderful collection! That's so cute your daughter has named them all!

[Anna]

Gorgeous shelves! I love your display!

[Gillian]

Whoa! that is so cute! I love the way it looks like a stadium and bleachers. That is so cool! What a lucky duck. xD

Wow!!! I love those shelves! I love the white. It really makes the pets stand out more. I thought about painting my brown wooden shelves white, but I just thought that was too much work. But yours is just adorable!!! Great job!! And tell your hubby great job too!!! I really like those risers also. It's all just fabulous. Pink and white together...precious!

Wonderful display!

It really makes no sense to call yourself a collector (talking about myself here...) but not display your collection.

Looking at everyone's collections makes me want to display mine too!

Your hubby did an EXCELLENT job! Great collection.

Oh I'm so jealous! That is just adorable...tell your husband he should make some to sell! You would probably have a lot of buyers here!

Thanks, everyone, for the nice replies! Maggie was so excited to see her pets on the computer! She loves all things pink and princess, so her room is a pink explosion. I never actually was into all the girly stuff before I had her, so I always say she brings out my inner princess

I actually posted 4 pictures, but only 2 seemed to be showing up - oh, well... We put the flypaper cat, bird, and Monkey on the side of the shelves, so it really looks cute.

Daddy was flattered by all the compliments. He is actually getting quite crafty at building shelves and things. He transformed (pardon the pun) our walk-in closet into a toy room to hold his Transformers collection. So, now I have nowhere to put my clothes! But that's OK. he built a wall shelving unit for our son's room to hold all of his Galactic Heroes and it is cute, too.

soooo excited - the pelican set, ostrich, and octopus set are arriving in my mailbox this week - HOORAY! Maggie's excited to - she has already named most of them and they haven't even arrived yet!

Thats a nice setup. Very nice collection. I like the idea that you can see all the pets.

Wow, that's a gorgeous setup. What a lucky little girl!
I think it's too cute she names them all, hehe! I did the same thing with all my stuffed animals and barbies and well, all toys, when I was little.
Very nice!
