“Bought an exquisite pale green LR sofa. Two LR chairs upholstered with beautiful floral fabric, embroidered. Also picked out most comfortable dark blue velvet sofa bed for den, with dramatic blue, wine and tan velvet accent pillows. Bought gorgeous wooden tray on sale, and striped silk cushion.They are not inexpensive, but merchandise is very high quality.”
“I had an excellent experience working with Dana. She found exactly what I was looking for and she was a pleasure to work with! High quality, good value, and fast, friendly delivery! I was impressed with the vast inventory in the showroom and will definitely be back next time I need outdoor furniture.”
“I love the Calico store in Wilmette! The team of sales associates are incredibly helpful and knowledgeable.This last visit I was looking for fabric to reupholster my 7' Henredon tuxedo style sofa. It takes 20 yards, so it was going to be an expensive purchase for me, and I definitely wanted to make the best choice.The team of sales associates hunted down various fabrics and ideas. We spent plenty of time to help me make the best choice.I highly recommend this store. I worked with Chris and Anne.”
“Besides being a supreme craftsman, Ray is a purveyor of marvelous oddities like the recycled-aluminum creatures--flamingoes, penguins, pigs, roosters--that I've collected over the years. These all-weather friends "hide" in plain sight, peeking out from behind trees & shrubs, delighting toddlers, amusing passersby. Yesterday as I turned onto Ridge in Wilmette, a green dinosaur in front of Ray's shop flagged me down & asked where I've been! He & his brilliant friends, peacock & owl, made me laugh--& for a moment I forgot about Covid 19, my husband's stroke, the war in Ukraine, global warming. Who could resist that? And so our menagerie grows--in size & popularity. Thanks to Ray”
“Easy and pleasant experience. Edith was very helpful and knowledgeable. Perfect mattress to fit my detailed requirements and budget. It was a no-stress purchase. Delivered within a couple of days. Delivery guy Amador and his coworker were friendly and polite and careful in our house. Thank you!”
