This weekend is the Washington Home & Garden Show and Stylish Patina will be teaming up with Quinn’s Auction to create a 10×20 living & dining room showroom.  The rooms will be designed with furnishings and home decor items from Quinn’s Auction Galleries and Stylish Patina shop.  This 10×20 showroom is a great way to demonstrate how everyone can create a vintage modern home.  Skip over the big box stores and buy vintage, adding a little character to your home.

You can visit the upcoming auctions to bid on any of the items you might fall in love with in our showroom or buy the Stylish Patina items right then and there!  Matt Quinn (as seen on Market Warriors & Antique Road Show) will be onsite at the Washington Home & Garden Show with his team doing appraisals all weekend!  Do you have an item you think might be valuable?  Bring it down and have Matt check it out.

I am also participating in the Upcycle Challenge with Habitat for Humanity of Northern Virginia.  A few of us local bloggers took a piece if furniture from the Restore and transformed it.  These items will be on display at the show and go up for auction with all proceeds going to Habitat for Humanity Northern Virginia!

If you would like a FREE ticket to the Washington Home & Garden show swing by the shop, 410 South Maple Ave Falls Church Va 22046, and grab a few and make a day of it!  I will be presenting on the main stage 5pm on Friday evening if you happen to be in the area swing by and say hello.  We will be doing paint demos in the booth Friday -Sunday 12-4pm.

Show Details:  March 22-24, 2013. Washington Convention Center, 801 Mount Vernon Place, NW Washington DC. Friday & Saturday 10-9pm Sunday 10-6pm.

Stay tuned for pictures this week as I begin to pull the room together!
