Question
I have a debate with my boss about the correct spelling of a
"Jenny Lynn or Lind" Bed. Could you tell me which is the correct
spelling? I say it is Lind and he says Lynn. I have found both
versions on the web.
Hi Carrie
Nice to hear from you.
What a fun question.
I go along with you. Lind.
Like you I found both versions on the net, but Lind is correct.
Here is a link that I know you will enjoy.

Very interesting read.
Is the boss buying lunch? LOL
Kindest regards
Eileen
PS
I forgot to mention Carrie that the Jenny Lind bed was named after this famous singer.
Jenny Lind is not a manufacturer.

Expertise
I can answer most questions about the repairing and refinishing of all your old furniture items (the things we call antiques). I can also give you advice on what wood items to choose and what wood items to avoid at auctions, flea markets etc. I DO NOT give appraisals on antiques as this is not my field of expertise.
Experience
I have been repairing, refinishing and of course buying old furniture for the past 30 years. On any given weekend I can be found at auction sales or flea markets searching out a good buy. I have taken several courses in this area over the years, but I find "Hands On" learning to be the best teacher. I can help you avoid the pitfalls and problems of this wonderful rewarding craft.
