Thanks so much for having your Furniture Repair Directory on your website. I have advertised since the beginning and received many a caning job from people doing a search and finding my ad here!

"Yahoo Cathryn! Thanks so much for the great antler basket patterns. We recently moved from Charleston, SC - the land of Palmetto Trees to cow, horse and deer country in midwest Georgia. Needless to say, it is antler country :) I love your website (I'm working on mine); your work and well, all of it. I have some friends who are going to give me their "found" antlers!!!!"
— Sara Nesbit, Woodbury, GA
"At least weekly, I hear from someone who sees us on your site, so our ad in the Furniture Repair Directory-Seatweaving section more than pays for itself many times over!"
— Kathy Morrison, Morrison's Chair Caning, Gaithersburg, MD
Your photo of rush seat weaving is wonderful, I want to try it on a copy of a chair I have from the 1830's. Your site is wonderfully encouraging, thanks so much.

"Cathryn you are the person responsible for my current success in chair caning, and I THANK YOU GREATLY! I attended several of your chair caning classes at the Weavin' In Winona workshops over the years and have really enjoyed your style of teaching. I learned a great deal from you during those classes. Every time I get raving compliments on my work, I say a silent "Thank you Cathryn" to myself for being my instructor!"
— Ingrid Spies, Winona, MN
Thank you so much for the information about the history of wicker furniture. My grandfather had a shop near Salem/Lyme, CT and he made willow pieces, including complete "lawn furniture" sets even with chaise lounges. Again, I really enjoyed your site and will be sure to come back to it as well as refer you to my friends!
— Linda Turner , Connecticut
So thrilled with the feed back I've had from the ad in the chair caning section of the Furniture Repair Directory! Thanks.

— Dianne Bayley, South Africa
"I thank you for all the work you do on your site. I know
the time you invest in it. I have gotten soooooo much work from your
National Furniture Repair Directory ad and my web site, right now I can't see straight! I love the Seatweaving & Chair Caning Forum as well, there's so much information and help there!"
— Sandy Sherman, Brookline, VT
Appreciate the website and the results that I am getting with my ad in the Furniture Repair Directory. Did 14 chairs already in the first quarter. Most of the customers have found me through your website. One customer told me that she entered "Chair Caning in York" and my ad popped up. How easy is that? It is the best advertising that money can buy. The Chair Caning Forum chat room has helped me with new information and resources. Thank you Cathryn for the website.
All the best to you. . .
— Steve Ambrose, York, Pennsylvania
