My best friend collected Garfield so every Christmas I made her something with Garfield. She had Thanksgiving at her house every year so I painted Garfield with a turkey on 12 napkins for her. She collected Christmas ornaments so I painted her and ornament. She had the kitchen canisters so I wood burned her a cutting board with Garfield and Odie at a pizza parlor. For her Christmas tree I took a small Garfield and gave him wings and a halo so she had an angel tree topper. I loved surprising her each year. She also had the Garfield Christmas village. That stuff was expensive. Handmade not expensive but I know she treasures them
That was fun. I worked on a Garfield video game when I worked at Sega in the 90s and the team got to visit Jim Davis at his studio/HQ. I’ll try to do a RUclips about it. Jim gave the team signed posters as a wrap gift
My Dad still has those Garfield comic strip books and I remember reading them on and off as a child and adult! Also the Garfield Halloween Adventure is my FAVORITE Halloween cartoon. Just bought it on Amazon now cause it’s been on my list and there is no time like the present! Great treasure, thanks for sharing!
Fun Fact: The original voice of Garfield was done by the same guy who played “Carlton the Doorman” from the old tv show Rhoda. Also, if I remember correctly, there was a one shot or short lived cartoon series of “Carlton Your Doorman” in the 1980’s
We loved seeing all of your Garfield goodies! I(Jeannine) loved watching Garfield and Friends! Every Sunday my dad would get the newspaper, and something that I have always done is go right to the comics section and read Garfield. I had the Fat Cat 3 pack when I was young too, I would read it all the time. OMG that cat bed! I have never seen that before! Laura and I both thought of putting the Garfield plush inside of it! So happy that you did! You have so many adorable plush... now I need a Garfield in Garfield slippers.... and maybe a pair for myself! Lol.
Awww, such a great memory of you and your dad. My grandpa who is now 92 still drives to get a Sunday paper and will read the comics section 😊 Yes isn't that cat bed the coolest! If I find any slippers or Garfields in slippers I will make sure to send them your way 😄
I always wanted the Garfield phone but never had a landline in my room so I never got it. Now I wish I would have. Maybe I will come across one thrifting 😀
OMG!❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉 I love Garfield too. My favorite item of yours is the beautiful clock! I don't have it but I have almost everything 😅😄✌️btw....I still collecting Garfield and had to get some merch from the new movie. 😁 Awesome video.💥
My absolute favourite plush when I was a kid (early 90s) was a Garfield one! And he had a little leather jacket, haha. I also had a Garfield poster and a bunch of comic books and stickers!😄
I love Garfield. I read the books and watched the Saturday morning cartoon and all the specials. It was so awesome being able to watch those later on with my own kids. That's such an amazing collection, Gina. I never collected any Garfield stuff other than the books, but I do still have a collection of Coca-Cola bears. 🤣🤣
YES!!! Garfield: The Original "Grumpy Cat". I used to have a small collection of the books, and would cut out some of the Sunday comics. I used to love collecting Garfield hugging Pooky. We still use the phrase "I'll ship you off to Abu Dhabi", when it comes to our cats (and our daughter - lol). A few years ago, we found a sealed plastic Garfield mug from McDonald's at a yard sale, one where Odie is holding one end of a hammock that Garfield's lying in, and he's saying, "It's not a pretty life, but somebody has to live it" (I remember they did glass mugs too!). I even had to one time rescue the Garfield part of a Garfield phone that was being thrown away (not sure what happened to the phone part). My husband's old high school friend is really big into Garfield, and we gave him lots of Garfield-related items for holidays; one of them being a hard-cover Garfield book with hand-drawn ink illustrations drawn on the inside of the front and back covers of Garfield and other characters. He did have a working Garfield phone.
Just remembered: one of my favorite night shirts I had when I was younger was a Taurus rendition of Garfield (Garfield with bull horns on his head, I think it was), and he was standing with his arms crossed by a kitchen sink. It said, "Taurus: steadfast, loyal, and stubborn. You can lead a bull to water, but you can't make it do the dishes".
That book sounds really neat with the hand drawings. We had those glass mugs as well, my parents are still using them 😄 That's crazy you were able to find a Garfield phone in the trash, it's too bad it wasn't working still. That would have been super fun to find!
A couple of years ago at Dollar Tree they had these notepads with garfield and some with Odie and Dave on them, I never used them I still have them in the packages they came in. I also have a beanie baby Garfield my husband got me from Cracker Barrel, and a stuffed Garfield magnet that was my husband's when he was a kid .
Oh the memories!!! Huge Garfield fan. I wasn’t big on collecting back then. I did have a small stuffed one, most of the comic strip books and ….SLIPPERS!!! I loved and wore them until I wore holes in the soles ☺️. Thanks for reminding me, happy memories 💚. Also loved the clocks!!!
Jim Davis and James Dean are both from the same town Fairmont IN. James Dean is buried there and there's a Garfield Museum and statues of him doing different things all throughout the county fun trip.
Finally got time to watch this…I love your collection! I have to say the clock is my favorite but the books are very special to me. I am still a huge Garfield fan and I’m a few years older than you so…I don’t recognize a lot of those items so, I really enjoyed seeing your collection. I have all the books and my boys have read through them several times. I have a bathroom set with a back scrubber, nail brush, and soap dish! LOL
@@HollywoodHaunter I have! We are doing Pirates of the Caribbean 😁 It’s a slow start but now that the kids are in school I’ll have a bit more time to work hard on it! We are returning to the full walkthrough this year. It’s our 10th anniversary, which I can’t believe 😅
Lol! I always wanted that Garfield phone, i didn't have a phone jack in my room so my mom probably thought it was unnecessary, bummer. My Step dad has the cups still and uses them so they never got a chance to make it in the box. I do have more Garfield plush but the video was getting kinda long haha!!! Thanks so much for watching 😄
I’m obsessed with Garfield🐈

Oh my goodness you are so creative! Your friend is lucky to have a friend like you.
I have original Garfield Christmas stuffed toys from my childhood. I have comics and most importantly my cat is named Garfield.
Awwww!!! I love that. I had a big orange cat many years ago who looked like a Garfield but we named him Hunny Pot instead 😄
I have the Garfield clock in my kitchen. He makes me smile.😁
Awesome! I wonder if anyone has a Garfield house phone and uses it?
I have one hung in my den just for decor. I haven't had a land line in years🙂
I was a massive Garfield fan! I had my bedroom decorated with wallpaper and matching bead spread! Thanks for sharing!
That is so cool! I would had loved official Garfield wall paper.
Great memories with your grandparents. You have been a collector since childhood. Thanks for sharing.
Lol! Yes I guess I have. Too bad I wasn't collecting vintage Halloween back then could you imagine the size it could be today? 🤣
That was fun. I worked on a Garfield video game when I worked at Sega in the 90s and the team got to visit Jim Davis at his studio/HQ. I’ll try to do a RUclips about it. Jim gave the team signed posters as a wrap gift
I totally used to have that game 😀 I had completely forgot. How cool you had that experience!
I have collected Garfield since 1981 & still do to this day. 😁
You must have some wonderful things!
Hi Gina, I enjoyed taking your trip down memory lane and it inspires me to go dig out my Garfield collection someday too. Thanks for sharing!
My Dad still has those Garfield comic strip books and I remember reading them on and off as a child and adult! Also the Garfield Halloween Adventure is my FAVORITE Halloween cartoon. Just bought it on Amazon now cause it’s been on my list and there is no time like the present! Great treasure, thanks for sharing!
Awwww! You're going to love having that on hand again. Candy candy candy!

I love this collection so much 🥰 I loved Garfield as a kid, his black & orange coloring definitely attracted me 🧡🖤
Yes! Garfield makes the perfect Halloween cat 😻
This brings back a lot of childhood memories. I use to watch Garfield and Friends cartoon all of the time.

There's also a Ghostbusters connection to Garfield.
Yes there is 😄
Crazy Garfield Lady 😂
😄
I love the alarm clock paint his eye area white
Yeah, I will probably do that thanks!

You know it's so funny because I had a pair of Looney Tune Sylvester slippers and not Garfield and I'm not sure what the deal was on that lol!
Jim Davis and James Dean are both from the same town Fairmont IN. James Dean is buried there and there's a Garfield Museum and statues of him doing different things all throughout the county fun trip.
That sounds like so much fun! I will definitely check it out, thanks 😊

@@HollywoodHaunter I have! We are doing Pirates of the Caribbean 😁 It’s a slow start but now that the kids are in school I’ll have a bit more time to work hard on it! We are returning to the full walkthrough this year. It’s our 10th anniversary, which I can’t believe 😅
Haha we use to have the black and white cat clock
Chris was asking if we could get one and I said hang on I think I have something better lol!
@@HollywoodHaunter haha damn this stuff is telling our age for sure haha
I use to have a Garfield telephone when I was a little girl.
That is so cool!!! I'm still on the look out for one 😄
I love the Halloween Garfield movie I bought the DVD acouple of years ago because it brought back memories from my childhood .
It's the best! 🧡🖤🧡
Yes it is !
surprised that you don't have any of the McDonald's Garfield glasses. or the Iconic Garfield phone or suction cup Garfield.
Lol! I always wanted that Garfield phone, i didn't have a phone jack in my room so my mom probably thought it was unnecessary, bummer. My Step dad has the cups still and uses them so they never got a chance to make it in the box. I do have more Garfield plush but the video was getting kinda long haha!!! Thanks so much for watching 😄
