WOW! What a great Iron Orchid Designs release! And everything is available online and in the store starting right NOW….Wednesday, May 24th at noon eastern! Seriously, just follow the arrow pointing to our front door. What’s in this Summer 2023 release?? 4 stamps, 3 moulds, 2 inlays, and 4 transfers.
But here is the scoop …. the new Transfers will be a preorder for all retailers since the delivery from the manufacturing company was delayed. We have the new Inlays, Moulds and Stamps in house, but Transfers won’t arrive till around June 5th to us. So, not to hold you up…. we will just split ship to you at no extra cost. So come visit or hop over to our shopping cart. We have all products in our shop and available online- to ship to you that same day! Click here => New Stamps, Moulds, Inlays…..and Transfers
Hey! If you have an old VW, classic car or truck of any make and model or cool motorcycle- we want you!
Drive over to The Purple Painted Lady on the 3rd Thursday of the month from 5-8pm and bring a lawn chair and hang out. We always have a food truck and more….
On Thursday, May 18th the Raymor Estates Wine Cellar will have their mobile wine and beer tap truck, Dar’s Delights Ice Cream Truck, Steve and Al’s Steak Out too!
Our goal is to get over 25 vintage cars at the meet up!
No need to RSVP- just come out!!! As long as the weather is reasonable – then it is happening!
Our address is 2620 State Route 31 Palmyra NY 14522
In New York it always feels like we go straight from winter to summer because it is super cold, ….and then hot! But, we have been lucky and have had some wonderful spring days.
At the shop, we have started to carry an amazing clothing line called Magnolia Pearl. It is super whimsical, fun and funky! We we are expanding our Jaded Gypsy clothing section and we have some really fun jewelry and t-shirts from J. Coons too.
Our coffee shop is really coming along. We still need to hook up the coffee makers and espresso machine. And we need to figure out which ice maker we will go with, but I am happy with the progress so far! We have had many friends help us out and could not be more grateful to them all!
Workshops are in full swing and we are always introducing new classes.
We would love for you to come and visit, but if you cannot and you see anything in the photos you would like a price on or to purchase- don’t forget we ship everywhere in the US! Call us at 585.750.6056
XO,

I was left alone, unsupervised and I started scrolling “the book” and …..I found a beat up 1969 VW bus. And I just could not help myself! We are going to use it as a landmark in front of the shop! Sure, it is a bit nasty at the moment …. Okay… very nasty- but with a little help from some talented friends…. It will be pretty cool. We will replace the lights, figure out what to do with the broken glass….. but we’re excited to plant flowers around it and paint it…. with Chalk Paint® by Annie Sloan, of course.
Annie Sloan released her Satin paint in 2022. It is a beautiful paint that does not require a top coat. It has velvety, smooth durable finish.
But something we wanted to share was a message from a customer who wrote, “I recently purchased the Annie Sloan Athenian Black Satin paint, and painted two beds with it. The question I have is: Wherever you touch the beds, it leaves a whitish smudge from the contact. Is this something that will change after the paint has cured, or do you think I will need to buff or seal the paint? I was surprised, since I thought the satin is supposed to be good to go without a sealant…. What do you recommend?”
Take a peek at the photo shared with us:
We wrote to our technical director at Annie Sloan HQ. After a consult our response back was ……..
You are not alone, this has been a complaint from others. First, the paint needs to cure fully before regular use which is stated in the directions on the back of the can. Most customers and painters have reported that the marks do wipe away. I have successfully wiped smudges off the pieces I’ve painted in Athenian Black with both a damp or dry cloth. I do not recommend scrubbing of any kind during the curing period. You do not need to worry about a top coat, it’s completely unnecessary and will change the beauty of the sheen. I hope this helps
Something I will share is that I am going to be painting the kitchen cabinets in my home soon with Annie’s Satin paint and will blog all about here.
