One of my favorite things about people is how unique we all are, with our own strange interests that turn into really fascinating and beautiful things (sometimes). We walk through our lives, gathering the things that bring us joy, and keeping them to look at on rainy days – in reality or just in our heads.
These 13 people have been building their unique collections for a long time, and I’m so happy they decided to share them on Reddit!
