My husband and I live in a very small urban space. Very small. So I squelch my inner collector in the hopes that it will maintain my sanity and a sense of order in the apartment. Two things I have a real weakness for, though, are vintage kitchenware (especially pretty plates) and old ephemera like photobooth pictures and postcards. Right now I keep a collection of Victorian postcards and old photobooth snapshots in an album.
I was so inspired to see the way Lisa Congdon arranges her collections of similar items (via Poppytalk). Maybe someday?

Oh, what a beautiful way to display collections! I love the simplicity, and the flow!
Love the plate arrangement!
Now that I know what to do with them, I'm giving myself permission to buy all the one-of-a-kind plates I find at garage sales! Thanks :)
I LOVE the plates. That is such an awesome arrangement.
The plates look like button! So fun!!
