Leather? Â Crocodile, specifically? Â Yes.
 And that's just one of the 5 unique floor design ideas
we have in this overview. Did you know that leather floored was
recycled? Â Leather from shoes and coats are ground up,
mashed up, and rebound to make "new" leather. We've also got tile
that looks remarkably like wood... A shimmering iridescent mosaic
tile... Lovely earth-tone cobble tiles... And one ordinary laminate
floor (included because it does a great job of mimicking birch).

Kitchen Tile Ideas - A Few Surprises Here

When I was looking for some kitchen tile ideas, I found a few
unexpected things: There is such a thing as ready-to-hang kitchen

well behind almost any stove. They look quite good,
too. This eliminates mortaring, tile cutting,
grouting, and all of the other mess associated with tiling. Metal
kitchen tiles look pretty good (pictured). These come
in 6" by 6" sizes and just peel and stick to clean
surfaces. You can easily put up a kitchen backsplash
in a day with metal tiles like these. Avoid the monotony of
same-sized kitchen floor tiles just by introducing a tile of
