COMING SOON

Chris and April Edwards, the owners of Rainbow Paint and Decorating at 1450 Montgomery Highway, plan to open an Ace Hardware store next to Chuck E. Cheese on Old Town Road and relocate their paint and decorating business inside that store. They hope to have the Ace Hardware built and opened by the first quarter of 2026, Chris Edwards said. The Ace Hardware store will be about 11,800 square feet, which is almost double the amount of space they have now at Rainbow Paint and Decorating, he said. Rainbow Paint and Decorating has existed at 1450 Montgomery Highway since about 1979 or 1980, and the Edwardses purchased it about four years ago, Edwards said. 205-822-3548
