SATURDAY'S CANE & BASKET SUPPLIER

November 22nd, 2009 · Comments Off · Weavin' Wicker Woman Blog

Today’s cane and basket supply company from the Cane & Basket Supplies page of WickerWoman.com, is Peerless Rattan Company located in Plainwell, Michigan.

Peerless Rattan Company is the oldest cane and rattan company in the United States, started in 1903. Owners Ed and Cindy Hammond bought the business a few years ago from most recent owner, Ohio businesswoman, Helen Cribbs.

Peerless Rattan carries a complete line of cane, rush, splints, reed, tools and instructions for the beginner and consummate professional chair caner. They are the only United States supplier of the English seatweaving tool called a “chair caning steamer,” which helps speed up the chair caning process.

Take a look at Peerless Rattan Company’s ad today and tell them you saw this blog post and heard about them through Weavin’ Wicker Woman’s Blog and the Cane & Basket Supplies page on WickerWoman.com!

Cane & Basket Weaving Supplies

November 10th, 2009 · Comments Off · What's New

Chair caning suppliesI have been online with this website, WickerWoman.com, since 1999 and have NEVER been in the business of selling cane and basket supplies to the general public. And the only time I do sell supplies, is to the students in my classes.

That fact is stated repeatedly across my website and always has been, but yet I continue to get calls from prospective customers about purchasing the supplies they need, from me.

AS ALWAYS, I refer them to the CANE & BASKET SUPPLIES page of my website where there are over 30 advertisers listed who are in the express business of SELLING CANE & BASKET SUPPLIES TO THE PUBLIC!

I am not about to try and reinvent the wheel here, so to speak and at this late date, begin a cane and basket supply business when there are already many, many fine companies that are already set up to do exactly that.

So, when and if you are looking for cane supplies to reweave that chair caning project you have, or you want to weave a new basket for a gift or for yourself, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE contact the fine businesses on the Cane & Basket Supplies page at WickerWoman.com, where you can purchase all your raw materials, tools and instruction books, too!

The link is also listed on the navigation bars on the left side of almost every page of this website, and otherwise, it’s at the top of the page.
