Collections can really take over a home. Some people have entire rooms devoted to them. When I was younger I got into collecting various things but they are all gone now except for my small hummel collection. They are in a small curio cabinet so I don't need to dust them often so really not taking up much space. I would gladly sell them if I could get a decent price. I still may if I ever decide to downsize once again as I age. I do like antique furniture not dining sets, end tables, hutches, etc because they were well made & will last for hundreds of years. I don't like the chairs/couches because they are uncomfortable.
