I do fancy keys, thank you for thinking of me! I was just wondering today what tips people off to their collections? Why keys? Why Owls? Why Hummels?
For me the urge to collect keys came about when I lived in an old yellow house. It had a huge grass lot with a giant tree that I would climb and I school bell that took nearly my weight and my brothers to ring. It was a house with history no doubt. One day I found an old key and hid it. I knew it went to something but I had no clue, so I kept it a secret fearing my parents would take it back.
I would imagine up things it opened or what was waiting to be unlocked. As a seven year old I didn’t have the time to try everything I had thought about, and in the end we moved before I could figure it out. Since then I’ve been collecting every key I could find… No, that’s not true at all. It wasn’t until I found another key in the 5th grade that I started collecting them. ;)
Tell me, why do you collect… whatever you collect?
