Merchandise Monday: Hippy Dippy

Hello all! With the holiday weekend things got lost in the shuffle so this Merchandise Monday is coming to you all a little late. My apologize.

 

I didn't just want to skip this post though because there is an exciting new product line to share with you all. Pastiche at Main has always been a great place to find furniture, home décor, and gift items.

 

But, now we also carry all natural bath, beauty, and cleaning items!

 



 

Hippy Dippy is a completely line of all natural products. The best part, the are chemical free, paraben free, and GMO free.

 

New products include lotion bars, tooth powder, deodorant, and cleaning solution just to list a few.

Stop by Monday - Friday 12-6 or Saturday 10-4 and check out the display near the door! See you soon.

Furniture Friday

If you ask me the best pieces of furniture are the kinds that can serve multi functions. I like a lot of bang for my buck pieces that only serve one purpose aren't always my cup of tea. This is one of the many reasons I adore this hutch done by Pastiche Interiors.

 

The entire time I was photographing this piece I found myself think about all the different functions it could serve. While it obviously would work in a dining room as a side board or hutch it would also work well in a kitchen. Thinking out side of the box it could make an interesting entertainment center. The silverware drawer would be great for holding remotes. It would also make an amazing entry way table. Add a few baskets to the interior to hold shoes and back packs.

 

How would you use this piece in your home?

 



 

Merchandise Monday: Pottery Pop Up Shop

If you haven't been down to the shop in the past few weeks you will want to be sure to get down town before the month is over.

 

Pastiche is hosting it's first ever pop up shop! Located at the front of the store, this limited time event features the work of Lynchburg local Beatriz Gutierrez.

 

Each hand crafted piece is created with Gutierrez's unique style. From mugs and bowls to serving platters and pitchers you are sure to find something lovely and functional to fit your life.

 

These lovely pieces aren't her for long though. So be sure to pop by soon. Because, when may is gone so is the pop up shop.

My Pastiche Story: Haley

It's hard to describe everything that Pastiche at Main has meant to me & my family.
This past year of business has been life changing! My faith in God has grown, my creativity has evolved, my circle of friends have strengthened me & my family has increased by one new little member.

Pastiche at Main warms my heart when I think of all the families it impacts & how it represents Lynchburg so perfectly.
I hope through this Keep Pastiche Alive campaign & the silent auction event - people will realize all that this creative community has to offer & how valuable Pastiche at Main is to our downtown heartbeat.

My hope is that we will be embraced so greatly by locals that we can stay open for many years to come! We have lots of room to grow & I can't wait to see what the future holds.
Thank you for all your support. I am excited to see all that 2015 has in store & grateful I've been able to pursue my dreams!
