Boutique opens in larger space
ELLSWORTH Raised ceilings, refinished original hardwood floors and lots and lots of color greet customers walking into the newly relocated Poppy & Polka Dot Boutique at 97 Main St. (formerly Beals Gifts). The store carries women’s clothing and accessories as well as some home décor items.
The opening connecting the space to the former jewelry shop next door has been walled over and now features a statement wall with large flowers in shades of coral, blue and white. The shop opened just down Main Street in 2019. The new space, which opened April 30, is 2,000 square feet compared to the 800 square feet at the previous location. Plus, there’s room to grow on the bottom floor.
New downtown businesses springing up
ELLSWORTH After a long pandemic winter, spring is inching its way into Ellsworth’s downtown streets. Flowers may not yet be blooming apart from inside The Bud Connection, but merchants are betting on a booming business climate as Memorial Day nears.
By the time the traditional opening of the tourist season arrives, downtown will look a little different and noticeably busier thanks to several new businesses opening or relocating to downtown streets.
For many, an architectural anchor of Main Street is the Beals buildings that sat empty for months but are now the future homes of Poppy & Polka Dot Boutique and Kiddo by Toko. Both businesses are renovating the interiors, with Poppy & Polka Dot planning to move in toward the end of April. New business Kiddo by Toko will open later, depending on how long renovations take, owner Linda van der Does said.
