When did you begin pin trading? April 2001
What made you want to choose pin trading as a hobby and why do you still continue?
We started because we love pooh! Our first pins were the Pooh puzzle characters at WDW. Hubby saw them and thought they were cute. Then we noticed all the people at table and watched. We then started seeing other Pooh pins in others books, we were hooked. At first it was the "pooh pin quest". Then we bonded with some special pin people like, Ed, DOnna, Michele, Manny, Dana, Micheal their kids, June & Bob, and it became more about the relationships/friendships then the pins. They became the avenue to these wonderful new friendships. And that is why we still continue to collect.
What is you favorite magical moments dealing with pins and/or pin trading? In a word...KIDS!! They are so wonderful to trade with. Especially the ones just getting started. There eyes just light up when they see your bag full of pins. It is just too awesome to watch and see their reaction.
What is your favorite pin? All of our "honeymoon pins are extra special. Our magic started at Disney and we spend our anniversaries there. So they each hold such a special treasure and meaning for us. Especially the Disney Cruise line and Yacht Club honeymoon pins. Great stories go with those!!
If you won the lottery today, how would you spend it? The first 10% would go to my church, First Baptist Daytona. Then we would build the home of our dreams. Then I would love to take the vacation of our dreams and stay at the Grand Floridian, and have a vow renewal ceremony at the chapel with a grand reception with family and freinds.
What is one thing that you have always wanted to do but have yet to do it? What I said above, vows renewed at Disney!
What else do you want people to know about yourself?
That I love people. I love life in general. I know it can bite you at times. But I love it. I love my husband and my family, they mean everything to me. My relationships with Christ is the ultimate love of my life and I wish this for everyone.
Blessings to all,
Winnie
