Our hearts are with our dear friend Marguerite, her wonderful staff, and her family at The Warehouse at Paxton following a tragic fire yesterday. We are so thankful that no one was hurt, but our hearts ache knowing how much love, hard work, and dedication she has poured into this special place.

Over the years, The Warehouse has become much more than a place where we shop for The Rusty Nail and have a booth….it has become a place filled with familiar faces and friendships we cherish. We have seen the heart and hard work Marguerite and her family has poured into it, and we are so grateful for the kindness she, her wonderful staff, and her family have always shown us.

Marguerite, please know that we are keeping you, your staff, and your family close in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. We pray for comfort, strength, and guidance as you face the days ahead. You are loved, and you have so many people standing beside you. ❤️

With love,
Your friends at The Rusty Nail
