Gift items on sale to make room for new inventory
One of the area’s best-known and biggest gift shops is changing hands. After seven years, Merlin and Marilyn Dedman have decided to sell the business, at 800 N. Beeline Highway, and retire to Idaho. Rita Jorgenson will take over April 21, implementing a number of changes. Jorgenson plans to sell off much of the business’ gift line and replace it with gardening supplies, including pots, birdhouses, bird feeders, plants and garden art.
