eBay My World: kathleenrosescollection( 363)

Hello! My name is Kathleen Rose and I am a new seller on eBay. This is my first experience selling on eBay and I'm having a great time. I own Town & Country Gifts for twenty years in Staten Island, New York and I am now hoping to open an eBay Store.

I sell shabby, cottage, country, vintage, victorian, primitive. When I first opened my store in 1987, it was all about geese. Times have changed and my store has evolved into more of a cottage, country look. I am eclectic in my own taste. I like to mix old and new with a bit of whimsy thrown into the mix. My auctions will be a mix of all that I love. Most items will be new, however, I will throw in some vintage items as well as some seasonal items in the shabby, cottage, country, vintage chic items for you or your home.

I buy vintage looks. I like things that look old. I also love fabric (lace, quilts, curtains).

I collect old teacups, old linens (especially embroidered doilies, pillowcases). I also collect vintage handbags and jewelry.

I love gardening. I live in the city, so I have a small garden, but it's jam packed with flowers. I love petunias, morning glory, moon flower, black eyed susan vine (to name just a few of my favorites). I also love antiquing with my mother and sister. I love hanging out with my family. Especially my neices and nephews.

All the girlie movies. When Harry Met Sally, Sleepless in Seattle, Bridget Jones Diary as well as Pride and Prejudice with Colin Firth, Sense and Sensibilities, and Little Women.

Right now I'm into Michael Buble. I also love Louie B. Armstrong (What a Wonderful World). I listen of a lot of movie soundtracks at my store-Sleepless in Seattle, Bridget Jones Diary, Hope Floats. I also love Luther Vandross, Nat King Cole and his daughter Natalie. I love classical music. I grew up with Rock and Roll and Disco. So I guess I pretty much like everything and when I'm driving in the car with my teenage neices I listen to all their music and I even like some of that!

I have owned Town & Country Gifts in Staten Island, New York since 1987. Prior to that, I worked in the buying offices at Macy's and Ohrbach's. I graduated from The Fashion Institute of Technology with a Bachelor of Science degree in Textile and Apparel Marketing and a Associate Degree in Fashion Buying and Merchandising. I was laid off from my buying office job at Ohrbach's in November 1986 and I opened Town & Country Gifts with my mother in 1987. Now I am hoping to open an eBay store by the end of this year.

I accept Pay Pal.

I ship UPS or Fedex Ground and USPS Parcel Post or Priority Mail.

I offer a 7-day return policy, however, I am flexible if a person really does not like an item
