A) My collection of silver spoons<br />
and tea sets often impresses others.<br />
B) My collection of silver spoons<br />
and tea sets often impress others.<br />
Why<br />
The subject is collection, which is a singular noun, so the<br />
verb must be singular. The correct verb is impresses.<br />
Remember, the object of the preposition (silver spoons<br />
and tea sets) is never the subject of the sentence.
