> Pegboards, I have found, are incredibly handy gadgets. I used to display my doll collection on several bookcases in my room, which ended up wasting most of my floor space and making me feel cramped. Then I discovered that the dolls could hang the from a pegboard with the pegs stuck under their arms. Wow! About 90 dolls fit on a pegboard the size of that bookcase, whereas I could fit maybe 50 on the bookcase. Plus, there are all sorts of other uses for those little pegs...

(Replying to both Grishny and LaZorra) My key chain collection isn't very big, yet. It's a rather small accumulation of key chains and I always joke around saying that " Maybe I should get a few dozen more!" But now that I think about it, key chains are in fact, a good way to remember people and places by. I have one with a pizza place on it, and one that I got from my mom's friend on a, well you could probably call it a special occasion, because I made a really cool friend that day.
Perhaps I should keep it up, and accumulate my own major key chain collection, and (getting to LaZorra's response) a Pegboard would be a great way to display them, seeing how I love to display my collections.
After I move out and become rich and famous, (Haw!) I'll probably have glass cases filled with my collections. A lot of my key chains actually come out of the gum ball machine, but they're really cool, and then's also one that came from a foreign exchange student in Korea. I feel inspired to buy more key chains, perhaps if I travel someday, I'll accumulate both Keychains and coins of all kinds. Interesting, I'll really have to work on this. And a pegboard would be nice, and switching from keychain to key chain, since fumbling through them to get to keys can be annoying. My dad says, a key chain for each type of key.
Thanks for the inspiration and ideas!
