Gift of paints

6 years ago

RSU 29 art teacher Craig Grenier, right, received 15 pints of various colors of Dixie Bell paint for the upcoming school year. The paint was compliments of Bridget Cobert, who owns “A Second Look Antique Shop” located at 17 Court St. in Houlton. Making the presentation was, Ellen Tidd, a local crafter of signs, who uses the products. Cobert opened her shop in 2017 and offers a wide variety of antiques and refurbished furniture using this brand of paint and products. Local educators were also given a discount on the products as a Back to School promotion. The shop is open Wednesday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
