We stopped in at Tipre Hardware for paint chips and wandered into the far end of the shop, where Kim Tipre runs her design business, Finishing Touches.
We asked about her selection of wallpaper books and as we chatted she said some magic words: "If you know what you want, you can just give me the information. I'm happy to order you any wallpaper whether it is one I normally carry or not".
So, if you've done your research and have made a decision on "to the trade" wallpaper, Kim's shop is definitely another good resource as a spot to scoop it up.
Kim was very friendly and has tons of experience.
