Pretty in Paint & Patina

Do you dream of finding unique, amazing furniture you could use as the perfect statement pieces to anchor the look of some of your rooms? Do you long for beautiful, one-of-a kind pieces to be focal points in your favorite spaces? Well, seek no further than the awesome, creative furniture pieces at Latina Patina, hand painted by artist/designer Alena Lara. Her products are created to be furniture that customers will absolutely love and can rework their current spaces around.

NEW BEGINNINGS

Before Alena started painting furniture, she was a hairstylist, but she’d had a car accident that was keeping her from working in the same capacity as before.

She says, “I had a lot of time to think and decided I needed to do something different but that I could be passionate about. I also wanted to do something that would allow me to spend more time with my daughters, who were very young at the time.”
