When I was growing up my grandmother had something she called her "knick-knack"-shelf. Her most cherished items placed on the miniature trinkets of her travels, usually. I remember a visit in a House that was filled with precious Moment dolls. My oldest son collects steins and cuckoo clocks. My wife loves furniture and dust. I have a friend who loves beautiful cigars. My cousin collects rocks.

Mind you, none of the above things to any interest for me. But I am genuinely happy for them because they have found their own separate paths to happiness and fulfillment. They have found anything that makes them feel good and gives them something to look forward to.

Collecting is about love, passion, vision, dreams, and all these things that spice and add flavor to life.

Pop House collectors, like other collectors and hobby enthusiasts, are passionate about their dolls houses with furniture and accessories because they have found something that makes life special. They are connected with beauty, creativity, imagination, and something that profoundly affects them in a way that they want to be touched.
