I was excited to read in this week’s Paxton Record that we will be having a new business open up in town. The Ruby Jewel, an antique gift shop owned by Ramonna Williams and Melody Henegar will open Saturday, March 3. They are located in the small shop located at the corner of Center and Market streets next to City Hall. They will be open Fridays and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. At Saturday’s grand opening, light refreshments will be served. The shop will feature antiques, along with specialty gifts like “infused olive oil from Indiana” and candles and greeting cards. There will also be some handmade rugs and handcrafted jewelry for sale that was created by local artisans.
I also loved their idea of mapping their store and the other antique and specialty shops here in town. We wish them luck in their new business!
