Off to Market at Patina

Home & Design
Written By Amanda Mertins

While Christmas may be packed away at home, Patina is already dreaming of the next one. 🎄

We’ve just returned from the Atlanta Market, where we began buying for Christmas 2026—expanding on the styles and pieces you loved most this past season. We also discovered some wonderful new gift and décor finds and can’t wait to share them with you. We’ll be sure to let you know as soon as they arrive at Patina.

In the meantime, now is the perfect time to take stock of those entertaining pieces you meant to have during the holidays. I always tell myself, “It’s fine—I’ll grab them before next year,” and then suddenly… next year arrives, and I’m once again short on napkins, serving pieces, or bar essentials. Sound familiar? We have plenty of those must-have basics in store and would love for you to stop by and take a look.

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.
