Hippo Hardware

We headed to Hippo Hardware - one of the top 10 places to visit in Portland. A "must do", especially if you are remodeling a house and attempting to keep things authentic. Or, I suggest, a destination for a HOT date. I highly recommend instant hand sanitizer as it's a little dusty and grimy.

Our big purchase - ceiling tiles for 20$ - a bargain!

Need a faceplate?

Need a lightbulb receptacle?

Need a faucet handle?
Scott mentioned that once upon a time, they used to break all the porcelain off these handles because the scrap guy wanted them "clean" - brass only. If he'd only known . . .

Need a globe?

Need an avocado green toilet lid?
