My Family

Wheeler and Penny

       Hello, so you want to learn a little bit about Amanda Kovalick.  Well, I am a stay at home Mom of two beautiful little girls.  Unfortunately they are growing up too fast.  I am the wife of a great husband, Jeremy.  I live in the middle of nowhere with my family, 5 cats ( Buster, Boo Boo, Penny, Sassy, & Sly) and a Beagle dog named Wheeler.  I worked in a wood shop for six years building and finishing picture frames that ended up in New York City galleries, Museums, & Art Shows.  My job really meant a lot to me,  but I quit it to stay at home with my girls.  Now instead of working with big saws and paint guns, I am a PTO  and classroom mom.  Yes, I have the mini van to go with it.  Love my van!!!  Staying home allows me to spend countless hours planning the best Birthday, Halloween, & Easter parties for my girls and their friends.  I also quilt.  You might see some wonderful quilts in my Ebay store from time to time.  I do not look like your average quilter, with five tattoos and my eyebrow piereced.  Not done with the tattoos yet either.  I am living proof that you can't always judge a book by its cover. 

    Now, lets get to the part about how I became an ebay seller.  I started selling on ebay in November 2006.  My Aunt who is a Power Seller set me up and taught me the ropes.  It took me a while to get set with a store name and product.  I chose Lost Pearl Collectibles one night while tossing and turning in bed.  I then found the perfect picture to go along with my logo, a vintage flapper girl looking in a mirror & fingering a pearl necklace around her neck. She is lovely and I use her in my store header.  Recently I have become very interested in Vintage clothing and great flea market finds.  I do a lot of research on my items before I list them.  I enjoy learning about new things, and Ebay has provided a great opportunity to advance my knowledge base and I have chatted and sold to many wonderful fellow Ebayers all over the world.  I love to shop even if I am not buying something for myself, and with Ebay I get to go shopping all the time and get a couple bucks back for my efforts.  I come across many interesting items and then they are listed for your buying pleasure.  Lost Pearl Collectibles hopes that you enjoy the service, product, & shopping experience.
