What do you collect?

Trying to think of something else to talk about!
I collect HANDS....not real ones but figurines. It started years ago when my Sister and I went to an estate sale they had two small vases known as "vase in hand", it is just as it is called. We bought them and it reminds us of each other. Then I found cupped hands made of porcelian and standing hands, from the wrist up in all kinds of glass, porcelin, ceramic and even a few metal and wood ones. I have a nice pair of wooden ones, a lefty and a righty. Some have fingers spread to hold rings when you do the dishes, others hold vases or glass flowers. I have jewelry charms of hands. Alltogther I have about 40 different hands. The meaning behind the symbolism of the hand or hands, to me, is that I am the kind of person who has a giving heart...I offer my hand out of empathy, to help lift others in a time of need, to show how much I care. To be giving of spirit. I often use them in displays when I sell my jewelry, but they are never for sale.
