Rosemary Harris opened Barbed Wire and Roses Vintage Market, 18 N. Main Ste. A on January 30, 2021.
“Barbed Wire and Roses Vintage Market was started because I love vintage, antique, and collectible items and through the store, they can find new life and purpose and can go back out into the world,” Harris said. “I love when someone finds an item in the store that they have been looking for and share their story about it. I also felt that our historic downtown area was the perfect location for opening a vintage/antique store.”
The shop provides Fort Scott and the surrounding areas a place to go for furniture, home décor, collectibles, and fun and unique items. “We also have people coming into the store looking for specific items and we try to help people locate those items whenever we can,” she said. “Our vendors and consignment items bring a variety of products into the store for our customers and friends to choose from.”
Conversations are started over some items.
“Toys and home décor bring back lots of fond memories,” she said. “Many customers enjoy reminiscing over items in the store their grandparents or other family members had when they were growing up and visiting their homes. We love when our shoppers share their stories and memories about cherished collections or mementos they have.”
” We hope to keep providing Fort Scott and the surrounding area with a fun place to shop and continue to be a part of our downtown shopping district,” Harris said. “We are excited to be celebrating our third year in business. We are celebrating our 3-year anniversary with sales throughout the store and treats for the month of February.”
