I have used all the popular antique lighting repair shops in the north side of Seattle and was…read moretrying to avoid the long hall across town this time. I found Lawrence and Scott on the internet with no reviews and figured I'd give them a try. I spoke with Marcia over the phone who is like talking to my mom. So sweet and helpful! I had my electrician drop off and pick up the light. A few year ago one of the lights went out on my 1920's tole chandelier and then recently all the lights stopped working. I asked that they rewire it to work and possibly do some painting over rusty areas. They had the light I think a few hours when I got a text that it had been taken apart and fully cleaned and was being rewired. Shortly after they had it completed and tested for continuity and offered to have a UL label for and additional $75. They texted pictures and recommended we not paint it... they were right. It looks beautiful after the cleaning and the little bits of rust just add to the charm. My electrician was shocked when I told her it was ready for pick up. She was really pleased with the renovation. Washed, all new UL electrical parts, grounded and tested. Ready for a new life. From the phone conversations I had with the popular antique repair shops around town it sounded like the pricing at L&S was on the low side. A few places sounded to charge about double. No one mention anything about cleaning it... L&S didn't either... they surprised me with that. I am so happy to have found Lawrence and Scott! I have never had such fast, throw, and friendly help with my electrical repairs before. From now on they will be my stop for lighting repairs for my houses on the south side of town and north as well.

I love how Kerf incorporates a client's customization into their beautiful cabinetry such as our paper towel holder, Costco-sized spice drawer, Kitchen Aid mixer pop-up stand, and a knife block. I am all for supporting such talented and hard-working employees at Kerf Design; their cabinetry is high quality and fits perfectly in any type of home, Eichler, Craftsman, Modern, etc. Kerf's cabinetry is our kitchen's wow factor. Each day is a smile to walk into our kitchen and see and use Kerf's beautiful and classic workmanship. Nathan is easy and excellent to communicate with and we had such a great experience working with him and his employees. I highly recommend contacting them for their design and cabinetry services for your kitchen, bathroom, office, or storage in your home.

My mom finally remembered the name of this place and we both fondly remember coming here. We had several antique pieces we needed appraised, and we were able to get swift, authoritative answers about the pieces and the market in general while we were here. These days, such informal appraisals are probably better done online if you know anything at all about the piece, but at the time the help was invaluable. I wish I could say we had bought or commissioned something here, so I could comment on that. But I can't, even though that's really their main purpose. The service, though, is charming and deeply informed, and I can't say enough good things about them.

As someone who carries multiple journals and uses them daily, Iona is a treat. You can smell the leather reclaimed from various other industries when you step into her shop. There are dozens of neatly rolled sheets awaiting the next journal. The shop is there for bookmaking, and you can see the care and craft that goes into each journal. Take your time to examine the books and the reclaimed hinges and fastenings. Each book is unique, and you have an heirloom piece when you leave the shop. Mychal provides three different types of paper. As a long-time fountain pen writer, I look for ghosting, smearing, and bleed-through. None of these were evident with my fountain pen. For the pen geeks, it is a Visconti Van Gogh fine point tip and Noodlers' red ink. Treat yourself to a journal for your thoughts, expressions, and memories.
