Not sure what HIP TIPZ is?  Please click on Our Introduction to find out more.  Now, let's get down to business -it's time to roll:

 

HIP TIPZ #241

Do you have a small indented niche in your wall that starts from the floor up?  Want to hide it?  Try filling it in with a cabinet.

 

HIP TIPZ #242

Create a feeling of privacy on your balcony: add a few potted, weighted down cedars.  Check your condo corporation's rules first though.

 

HIP TIPZ #243

Are you out of town a lot and don't want mail piling up outside?  Think about having a mail slot installed into your garage door.

 

HIP TIPZ #244

Want to give a masculine glam feel to a room?  Hang an embossed faux crocodile wallcovering on one wall.  What a great feature wall!

 

HIP TIPZ #245

Check out the Bend Buffet by Calligaris.  A gorgeous piece of furniture for a contemporary space.

Hi Charlene, great tips, looking forward to more. I love faux croc. One of my favourite finishes. Saw a desk covered in brown croc recently from the Netherlands. I couldn't stop staring at it as it was so beutifully done. The corners were covered in plain brown leather like a steamer trunk would be. fantastic use of croc.

Michelle - Thank you!  I love the faux crocodile finish too.  That sounds like a gorgeous desk that you saw.
