Suggested reading: A Collection A Day

Rarely do I come across a blog as excellent as 'A Collection A Day,' the brainchild of San Fran based artist and illustrator Lisa Congdon.
Since childhood, Congdon has been an avid collector of pretty much everything. Her collections range from vintage envelopes to plastic seashells via smooth rocks found on the beach.
Now the human jackdaw has decided to post a picture every day for 365 days presenting one of her collections. She's up to day 145. Once you check out the 'A Collection A Day' blog, you'll find yourself returning every few days to see what she posts next.
What I love most about her blog is the simplicity of the concept. I also applaud her decision to include some 'imagined' collections; for stuff she wishes she collected but hasn't, she just posts a drawing.
Anyway, here's the url: http://collectionaday2010.blogspot.com/
