# How to: Implement a CompositeCollection
## Example
The following example shows how to display multiple collections and items as one list using the <xref:System.Windows.Data.CompositeCollection> class. In this example, `GreekGods` is an <xref:System.Collections.ObjectModel.ObservableCollection%601> of `GreekGod` custom objects. Data templates are defined so that `GreekGod` objects and `GreekHero` objects appear with a gold and a cyan foreground color respectively.
