I live in Wisconsin and heard about Scrimshaws from family members. I contacted Linda (who is extremely nice and very knowledgeable) when I decided to update my living room.
This is where it got hard for Linda. I didn't have any idea of what I wanted for furniture but lots of requests. I wanted durable furniture that could withstand 11 grandkids, a dog and a cat.

Once I jump on a fabric option, she takes that info and directs me to other suitable options. Linda is as responsive with post-sales questions as she is with pre-sales. When my Hubbardton Forge sconce failed, she was right there with me, and had timely follow-up with the original manufacturer or product supplier (middle-person) to ensure I was satisfied and eventually received a...
