Cool finds in Upstate NY
I wanted to share a few other cool things I saw while in upstate NY, most I did not buy but had to take pictures of them just for fun!
Mark your calendars for next Rough Luxe Market – July 31, Aug 1+2nd! Located at our warehouse at 138 W. Jefferson St, Falls Church Va 22046. Follow us on Instagram and FB for sneak peek pictures.
Antoinette + Graphite =?
I am on this new kick using Graphite vs. Old White or Pure White as the base color just because it’s giving me a unique look at the Chalk Paint® colors. I LOVE Chalk Paint and it is my “go to” paint but as with anything you get tired of the same old colors or using the “safe neutrals” colorful Monday is all about playing with the unexpected.
Today I am playing with 1:1 ratio with Antoinette + Graphite. I can’t wait to play with this in the studio I think might love this color:-) Follow along with all of our projects in the shop on our FB page and Instagram.
Vintage Props for Photography
One of my very good customers Kelly Crawford is so great to share some of the amazing things she does with the Stylish Patina purchases she makes for her business, Kelly Crawford Photography. In this new born session she used one of the amazing vintage boxes she purchased at the Falls Church Shop as a prop in the new born shoot.
I love how she used a little bit of burlap to line the drawer and then tied in the headband:-) Just adorable, how can you not just fall in love with this little girl. Thanks to Kelly for sharing her session with us and giving us more unique and interesting ways to repurpose vintage finds for modern use!
I always love to share photographs from my customers so feel free to email me them at kelly@stylishpatina.com. Before & after are always fun too.
If you are interested in a Chalk Paint Basics class I just posted one on Aug 12th 2:30-4:30 sign up here, spaces fill up quick.

Northern Virginia Magazine
Many thanks to the Northern Virginia Magazine group that did a little feature on Stylish Patina. You can see the article in the June issue of Northern Virginia magazine {page 24}. It’s always fun to be interviewed by your home town news sources.
