Grand opening Saturday for downtown's newest business
By Monty Siekerman
A sister duo is opening a store on South Main with a grand opening slated for Saturday.
Past, Present & Primed is the new venture of Kortney Melton and her sister Jessie Caskie at 117 S. Main across from Liberty National Bank. The open house is set for 9-6 Saturday.
The business features unique home decor, refinished and painted furniture, and floral arrangements. They will also take custom orders on furniture pieces and florals.
Kortney has previously been selling furniture in Findlay, and Jessie is currently a wedding planner and the floral arranger in the store. The store will also rent wedding props.
There also will be vendors selling items like jewelry and signs.
Store hours are Tuesday by appointment, Wednesday and Thursday 9-5, Friday and Saturday 10-6, and Sunday 11-4. The phone number is 419-634-0700.
Kortney said, "Shop from pieces in the store or ask about one of a kind treasures just for you."
