IMPULSE to make calculated move to Newton

IMPULSE by Adamas Fine Jewelry is moving to  22 Lincoln Street in Newton Highlands to merge with its original counterpart, Adamas Fine Jewelry at their newly renovated two-story space. So that means it’s time to shop for bargains as the Linden Square store sells off its inventory at 40 – 60% off everything. IMPULSE owner Veronica Sagherian said, “We have truly enjoyed being a part of the Wellesley business community, and hope that our loyal clientele will find us easily less than five miles down the road. This is a great move for IMPULSE as it will allow us to offer the same beautiful jewelry brands with the added benefit of bespoke jewelry creations, custom design, and special services that Adamas Fine Jewelry has been offering its clientele for over 22 years.”

Eye care retailer and barber shop coming

Wellesley appears to be getting a new eye care retailer, as the space at 445 Washington St. (former Zoots, next to the Scalliwags child care business) is being fitted for that purpose. Wellesley has numerous eye care providers already, though recently did lose longtime business Vision Optics in Wellesley Square.

Separately, word is an “upscale barber shop” will be taking over part of the space formerly occupied by Pine Straw at 466 Washington St.


Gayle Thieme resurfaces at Mature Caregivers

Former Wellesley Council on Aging (COA) Director Gayle Thieme has been hired as director of client care at Mature Caregivers, which provides in-home companionship and personal care to elders. The parent company of Mature Caregivers started in Wellesley in 2006.

Before leaving last year, Thieme had been at the COA for 16 years, playing a leadership role in the development of the Tolles Parsons Center and on the senior programming front.
