While I recently visited my hometown of Falls City, Nebraska, Kathy Martin, Jannie McNeely and I made the short trip to an account of mine on the way to the little town of Rulo.

Here out in the middle of the country is a historic red brick, one-room schoolhouse, beautifully preserved inside and out and filled to the brim with beautiful products and gifts. Betty Majerus is the designer and owner of this rare jewel of commercial enterprise. I am sure that she draws customers from the four-state area and more.

Betty also sells fresh flowers and has a seasonal plant nursery outside. WOW! What a unique and beautiful shop!

I love this elegant gift shop and I am very proud that Betty sells my line in her store.

Also on a side note, my mother taught in a one-room country schoolhouse eleven miles northwest of Falls City while I was growing up. I went to mom’s Christmas plays, school picnics and to several regular days of school. Those were precious days for me and I still cherish these memories. My visit to The Nursery School was rich indeed for me

    Margaret-I’m so glad you shared the Nursery School. Betty has elegant gifts, wonderful plants, and her shop is a welcoming place to relive the past

    I also love the Nursery School on the way to Rulo. The first time I went there I couldn’t believe what wonderful decorating items she has for sale. I live in KC and her store rivals any I’ve been to here. I grew up near FC also, my brother Charles Kelly was in your class.

    It sure is a wonderful store. I still picture the colorful floral arrangements and great creative design ideas. If you ever need design tips, go visit the Nursery School.

    I love the Nursery School also. I live in KC and it rivals any decorating store I’ve been to down here. I grew up in Verdon and my brother Charles Kelly was in your class
