CAPTION: Local artist Kelly Poling adds some brick red paint to the exterior of the building housing My Secret Garden Floral and Gifts, at 722 North Washington. The floral business, owned by Kimberly Gravesman, is a member of Main Street Chillicothe and is participating in the organization’s facade renovation program. Poling said along with the red paint, a green color will be added to the two-story building as well as accents of off white. He expects work to be finished by the end of the week, weather permitting. The building is owned by Brent Kline.
