Be the Light Boutique Creates More Space at 12 N. Main
Susan and Eddie Townley opened Be The Light Boutique in November 2022, after several years of selling antiques, vintage finds, and home decor in the Kansas City area.
12 N. Main was the former Country Cupboard, an anchor store in Fort Scott’s Historic Downtown District for decades.
Recently the Townleys have been painting the facade of the building, removing a temporary wall in the back to extend the showroom to the back door and remodeling an existing bathroom.
“The wall came down in the back, which opened the view front to back, the way Country Cupboard was,” Susan said. Out the back door, there is more parking for downtown businesses.
“We added 400 square feet, with a total of 4,000 square feet,” she said. They remodeled a bathroom, put down new carpet, and painted.
The exterior is also getting painted, last week the front of the building, and this week the back.
Exterior painting was done by Ora Et Lobora Painting LLC, carpeting by Ruddick’s Furniture, and plumbing by Frenchs Plumbing, all of Fort Scott.
They are getting ready for the holiday season and the Fall Fest this week in Fort Scott this Thursday, Sept. 12, 2024
5:00 PM – 8:00 PM.
Hours of operation of Be The Light Boutique are Thursday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., Sundays noon to 5 p.m.
Phone/Internet Services Assistance
Lifeline helps low-income Kansans stay connected
TOPEKA – Phone and internet services are vital to accessing healthcare and community services, finding employment, and calling for help in an emergency. However, the cost to stay connected is out of reach for many Kansans.
