4. I saw something in a magazine a few months ago that is not on your website. How can I order it?
There is a chance that the item is no longer available. With so much changing, we try to keep our website as the central source for what we’re making and how you can find it. So if the item you desire is still available, you will most likely see it on our website.
You can always double check by emailing sales@hableconstruction.com or call toll 877.hable.04. When doing so, any information about the name of the print or design and style of bag or pillow will help us track down what you are looking for!
