Accents Etc
Accents Etc is a unique and enjoyable shopping experience.
What appears to be a small shop on the outside is actually over
5000 square feet of artistically displayed merchandise. We have
a wide selection of items, so chances are that everyone who
enters the store can find something interesting. The store which
originally opened its doors in June of 1990 has changed and
evolved into what we have now. We have two entries, one on the
south side and one on the north side.
If you enter through the south doors (formally The Book End)
you will first encounter our large display of picture molding
corner samples. When the store originally opened its doors it
was primarily a picture framing shop and art gallery located on
the north side. With the help of the owner, Betty Kenner or our
newly trained picture framer, Angie Hershberger, we can design
any custom-framing job that you might need. In this part of the
store, we carry photo frames, prints and framed artwork.
Also through the south doors is the bookstore. This part of
the business was purchased in June of 2004 from Pam Morello. At
that time the north and south side of the existing store were
combined with the re-opening of an entry that had existed
between the two buildings. We offer a wide variety of books for
children, teens and adults. We carry many works by Nebraska
authors that you probably wouldn't find in your larger
bookstores. We also have a section where you can buy or trade
used books. If there is a book that we don't have, we can order
it for you with no shipping cost. In this part of the store we
have baby gift items and art glass.
If you enter the north side of the store you will be greeted
by numerous displays of seasonal home decor, cards and gift
items. At one time or another this part of the store has
included a variety of different businesses and owners. Most
recently, Wesk & Company (Sandy & Bill McConville) sold their
business to Betty. In this part of the store we have many
different sections. There is a women's section with purses,
jewelry and bodycare. We have an area with wine racks, crystal
dishes and glasses, collectible teapots and dinnerware. There is
a kitchen section that has Nebraska & Kansas food products,
kitchen towels, placemats, mixing bowls, casserole dishes, etc.
We have an animal section with chickens, pigs, cows, frogs,
ducks and John Deere items. There is a Husker section and areas
with potpourri and four different candle lines.
As you continue on to the back of the store, you will find
throws, doilies, quilts and angels. You will also find a full
service flower shop that was recently purchased by Betty from D
& D Floral ( Denise & Darryl Volquarden). Our florists, Cindy
Shields, Mike Kohler or Betty can help you with a colorful and
cheery fresh arrangement. We do flowers for weddings, funerals,
birthdays, anniversaries, new baby, holiday center pieces or
just because. We also have houseplants.
Past the flower shop are stairs that lead to the upper level.
On this level you will find Americana, cookie jars, collectible
Santas, more kitchen items and more home decor. We have a bridal
and gift registry and in the center of this room we display the
upcoming newlyweds gift choices.
Going back down the stairs, towards the front of the store
you will find another set of stairs that leads to the lowest
level of the store. Here you will find dolls, bears and
children’s tea sets. There is an area with cowboy, fishing, and
hunting items. There is another area with discounted items. We
also have, on this level, different antique dealers. Besides,
Accents Etc, the other dealers are George Huff with GB's
Treasures, Judy Catt with Sisters Antiques and Erma Hinz. We
have plans to expand the antique area under the bookstore, so
look for that in the future.
Another event that many of our customers look forward to is
our annual Holiday Open House. It is always held the first full
weekend in November. There are over thirty trees decorated as
well as tons of Santas, snowmen, Nativity sets and tons of great
Christmas gift items. Our customers come from all over Nebraska,
Kansas and Colorado to see our many wonderful displays. Be sure
to get us on your calendar. Accents Etc and the staff invite you
to come and visit us anytime for a fun-filled day of shopping
with us and the other businesses on the bricks in Downtown
McCook. We are located at 307 Norris Ave. Our hours are Monday
thru Friday from 9:00 am to 5:30 pm and Saturday from 9:00 am to
4:00 pm. We look forward to serving you.

Long known as a denim destination, specialty retailer Buckle

relocated to the Westfield Plaza Center in November 1993.
Offering a unique mix of high-quality, on-trend apparel,

Complementing its strength in denim, Buckle also carries

Merchandise isn’t the only reason guests shop Buckle.
Buckle’s sales teammates are passionate about creating the most
enjoyable shopping experience possible for their guests.
Bolstering this approach is Buckle’s wide array of value-added
services such as free alterations, free gift-wrapping, easy
layaway, frequent shopper “Primo Cards,” and a Buckle credit

With the company since April 2003, Dalyce Moore has been the
manager of the McCook Buckle store since February 2004. Hailing
from Palisade, Nebraska (population: 350), Dallas says of the
Buckle, “I enjoy the opportunity to manage for a leading
nationwide retailer, while being close to my family and the
community where I grew up.”

more than 350 stores in 38 states and is traded under the symbol
BKE on the New York Stock Exchange.
