I collect all kinds, have mostly decorative ones and from travels, some old some plastic. have around 300 in cases and shelves.One good thing they don't take up a lot of room.Family and friends bring them to me all the time.

I've been collecting thimbles for a while. When my kids travel they always bring me home a thimble. I've got very unusual thimbles from Spain, France, Italy, as well as ones from this country. My daughter's friend went to Israel last year and brought one for me from there. Said she remembered I collected them and thought I'd like it. Now I just need to get my son to make a case for them.
