Welcome to my world...lol

I wanted to share a bit of my non-bird world with you all. I hope you don't think I'm to wierd, but I've been collecting dragons forever. Since Harry Potter, I started collecting some of the Potter stuff. It all goes together with the dragons, castles, wizards....fantasy stuff I love.

So anyway......here is one of my prized collections. (The other is my music memorabilia, but we'll save that for another day...lol)

My Curio cabinet were all my dragons & Potter stuff live.


Top shelf...wands: far left - Snape. In front of his wand is the Prophecy Ball, with the tag with Harry's name on it..... group of 4 wands (right): Harry, Neville, Ron & Hermione. Also the 4 Dragons from the 4th book. GOF 1st task.








2nd shelf: Map of Diagon Alley, Harry's Broomstick, The Firebolt, Dumbledor's wand (The Elder Wand)






3rd shelf: Mauraders Map, Serius Blacks wand, and Dracos Broomstick, The Nimbus 2001....and Voldermorts wand













Well, thats it....a view into my mind....scary isn't it....LOL

Very nice. I collect dragons as well. A lot of my figurines/mini statues are from Michael Whalen, I have a couple dozen dragon jigsaw puzzles, and several stuffed toy dragons.

Nice collection! That's a little like old home week - I was and SCA'er for a long time so it was weird when I left and began to make friends with people that DIDN'T have swords, dragons, coats of arms, scroll-making stuff and other fantasy paraphenalia decorating their living rooms.

A big round of applause for all of the fantasy geeks out there.

Now, if we could just get the One Ring way from Lord Cheney...
