A woman in Slovakia has a passion for napkins, and collecting them has turned into a lifelong commitment.

According to the Daily Mail, Antonia Kozakova has 62,757 napkins, each having a different design. Her collection is worth $500K (€370K / £300K).

She has gathered them from all over the world, during a 16-year period. 39-year-old Kozakova is also the title holder for most napkins in the Guinness Book of World Records.

She first broke the record in 2007, when she only possessed 21,000 napkins. She broke it twice in 2008 with 30,300 napkins and 50,000 items.

One of the items can be dated to the 1940s, and another one is four feet (1.2 meters) long. She also owns a two-inches (5-cm) long napkin.
