Update on our Disney Pins

So it has been a while since I mentioned about our Disney pin collection. It has gone through a few major revamp. Since my last reports, we have stopped collecting attraction pins and most holidays pins except for Halloween and Christmas. All of those pins that we no longer collected (including a few valuable Piece of History pins) are either in our trading books, or have already been traded. We did this because we were just running out of space to display all of our pins. Besides, it was time to really limit what we collect.

Donald and duck pins are still our #1 collection, and it has gotten bigger since. Complete sets and theme park icons pins have also gotten big. However, while we eliminated a few themes, we also added a few more, but we're hoping the number of pins for these won't be as big. We have started collecting Disney Imagineering pins, but only those that can be part of sets, preferably complete sets. We also started collecting Haunted Mansion and Tower of Terror pins, but not religiously, meaning we'll only collect them if they make complete sets, or if they look good. The one thing that we did start that could balloon very quickly is the Chip 'N Dale pins. This could turn out to be a big one because there's a huge amount of Chip 'N Dale pins out there. Luckily, so far, we have resisted getting every single Chip 'N Dale pins that we come across, and only collect those that actually are very cute, or funny, or beautiful. So for now, the collection is still small, but it can easily explode very quickly if we're not careful.

I've updated the pictures of our pins that we have on display. The Donald (and ducks) pins dominate our collection, obviously. It is still our #1 collection and it is the only one where we try to get our hands on every single pin that we come across.

Still, if someone were to ask me what is my most favorite set of pins, I'd say it would be the Nightmare Before Christmas Imagineering pins set, and I don't even collect Nightmare Before Christmas pins! It is just the design of it that is so impressive and gorgeous that I can't help collect them. These pins are definitely made for display. This framed pin sets below also has the Imagineering Haunted Mansion pins, which are also gorgeous.
