I love traveling, and I love to remember everything about the places I visit. But, honestly, I don’t want a huge scrapbook for every trip I ever take or a t-shirt or a trinket-ity souvenir… sometimes I don’t want to buy anything. So, what the heck do I do? I decided I would collect pictures of trees from each place I visit. I think a tree can really tell you a lot about a place. I remember the exact location of each tree in my collection. One day, I want to frame them, and have a wall of trees from around the world.
Here are 7 clever, fun free travel collections!
1. Tree collection:
2. Sand/ soil collection
5. Vintage Tins
7. Postcards

Hey there,
I came across your website via StumbleUpon and boy am I happy I did! =D
I am a crafts / DIY freak and I have a collection of over 600 websites / blog links that feature such crafts / DIY. I do made things on my own but time doesn't always gimme leeway to do much, unfortunately. I hope I'll be able to give it more time soon. =)
I've featured a few of your crafts on my Pinterest page and I hope that's alright. =) You can check them out here:

Keep up the good work here! Look forward to reading more of your posts. =)
Found you from Be Different Act Normal's show and tell, and I'm sure glad I did! Loving the thrifty, easy projects, just digging in!
My hubby and I have found ourselves collecting mugs. On holiday it seems places offer you drinks in mugs you can keep, so we do! We've got tikis from Waikiki, coconuts from Maui, and all kinds of crazy from Vegas 🙂
Really great photos. That sunset is gorgeous!
Coming over from Trendy Treehouse for Shutter Love Tuesday…my first one! 🙂 Following you now with both of my blogs. Would love to have you visit me as well…here's my entry for this week.
Shutter Love Tuesday
Love that sunset photo! Beautiful!
I'm happy you found me, and I'm happy you enjoy the blog…stumbleupon is pretty fun! I really like the jewelry collection idea… I think I am going to start that collection too! Jewelry is something that I tend to buy when I travel anyway, but I am going to make a consensus effort to make it a habit!
I found you on Stumbleupon, and I really like the blog. Keep it up.
I collect jewelry from around the world. Each place I go, I buy at least one piece. I remember the place, the trip, and I don't have some hokey shot glass that says "Brussels" or "Sofia" on it. Plus, I can wear it, and people ask where I got it. Makes for a good story.
