Now that I’m older, the desire to amass a collection of my own is still with me. I just moved into a new home, and think that Norman Rockwell collector plates would be perfect for decorating my living room, so I’m finally going to start buying them.

The problem is that I rarely see these pieces in stores anymore. A few places might carry one or two of the most popular Norman Rockwell collector plates, but I’ve never seen the entire collection for sale at any of the stores near me.

Well, all I have to say is thank goodness for the Internet! Of course there are literally hundreds of websites that sell Norman Rockwell collector plates online, so I’m not going to have any problems finding the pieces that I want. In addition to the most popular designs, these websites list discounted, antique, and retired units as well. Moreover, I can get them in different themed series, including Christmas, Heritage and American Dream.

The great thing about buying Norman Rockwell collector plates online is the fact that I can shop around for the best deals without ever leaving my chair. Some sites might have the Heritage Series on sale one week, while others might be running discounts on the American Dream series. By shopping online, I can take advantage of both sales without going to any extra effort. Moreover, many of these sites offer free shipping on all Norman Rockwell collector plates that they sell, which just makes a good deal even better.

I’m going to wait until I get everything unpacked in my new house before ordering any Norman Rockwell collector plates because I want to make sure I have a place to display them as soon as they get here. I’m going to build up my collection slowly, so I’ll probably just order “The Runaway” and “Freedom of Speech” to begin with. After that, I’ll try to add to my collection a couple of times per year until I have every plate ever produced. I’m very excited to get started!
