SATURDAY'S CANE & BASKET SUPPLIER–Jeff's Wood Shop

November 7th, 2009 · Comments Off · Weavin' Wicker Woman Blog

With this Saturday’s blog post, I’m adding a new weekly feature, which will highlight a cane & basket supplier listed on the Cane & Basket Supplies Directory ™ of my domain website, WickerWoman.com

Our first supply business is Jeff’s Wood Shop

Owner Jeffrey Guidinger, a woodworker and retired police officer located in SE Wisconsin in Cedarburg, specializes in crafting slotted wooden basket bases for basketmakers.

For over 15 years, Jeff has selected from the finest Wisconsin hardwoods, making wooden basket bases of all shapes and sizes. Need a specialty base you can’t find anywhere else? Jeff can cut it for you, just send him a picture or drawing and he will email you back with a price.

Visit Jeff’s Wood Shop website to view the color catalog listing of all the various bases he stocks and be sure to check out the “Best Sellers” area for bargins and deals. Registered users of the site receive great discounts and specialty pricing.

Tell Jeff you found him on the Weavin’ Wicker Woman’s Blog!
