Written By Amanda Mertins

Graduation is a special time of year celebrated by both students and their families. Whether it’s kindergarten, high school, or college, graduation season is filled with excitement, pride, and celebration. Your graduate may be heading off to camp, college, beginning a new career, traveling, or settling into a first apartment. Whatever their next chapter holds, Patina has gifts to help commemorate the occasion.

Frames — A framed photo from graduation day is always a meaningful gift, and we are stocked with several beautiful options. A perfect choice for graduates of all ages!

Home Décor — For graduates preparing for a new home or apartment, serving trays, acrylic pieces, decorative bowls, soft throws, and candles are gifts they will appreciate.

Entertaining — Coolers, bar accessories, charcuterie boards, and serving pieces are perfect for tailgates, beach weekends, housewarming gatherings, and first apartments.

Jewelry — Always a classic!

Hearing “I’m proud of you” is the best gift of all, and topping it off with something special will make it memorable. Stop by Patina and let us help you find just the right gift.

Patina Polished Living was created 10 years ago by friends Amanda Mertins and Kimberly Weiler. 

Amanda Mertins was born in Ohio and graduated the University of Maryland with a degree in Economics. She started moving and editing furniture and accessories while in grade school and hasn’t stopped since. She enjoys baking desserts and playing with her grandchildren.

Kim Weiler was born in Pennsylvania and graduated the University of the Arts with a degree in graphic design. Upon graduating, she was immediately hired by one of her professors at the Katz Wheeler Design firm. She loves design, gardening, sweet tea and all French bulldogs.

Amanda and Kim are excellent complements to one another-one could even say the Yin and Yang of design. Being very different people but with interconnected forces is the reason their partnership continues to flourish.
