  1. Wah say the pool room will really be nice sia! Esp when you guys entertain. Do hope that you all will have enough space!
  2. Wah carpentry and lights all up liao!!!!!! This week can move??? SO FAST!
  3. hihi lushbelle! poor thing still so busy with work. Me bought 90% of my furniture over the weekend. We settled the lights, blinds, and furniture liao.. but it's mainly cos my parents and I are free. Ya I also sick of sourcing for things... very tiring.. esp since we don't have car. Urgh. we went to look at all the furniture we want.. and then went to a furniture shop in amk to order... i put up the pictures in my blog liao. hope ur tiling done liao!
  4. wow re-upholstery does sound like a better option. Since the stuff you bought were quality stuff then giving them a new lease of life this way is GOOD! and cost saving!
  5. You're welcome. Glad you understand what I write. hahah Actually my family was prepared to DIY thinking that custom made were expensive. But after checking out DIY blinds at Ikea and Spotlight we realised custom made are better cos better quality and the price difference isn't much. Moreover Ikea ones.... they have translucent ones and only 2 types for the blackout ones... so we went for custom made.
  6. I agree... heavy cooking and open concept just don't go together. I'd hate for the whole house to smell for some time after cooking.... then the floor in the whole house will get greasy...........................
  7. wah say! Good leh! will check it out!! hahaha
  8. hihi!!!!! haha yes yes my blog very long... cos I'm on "leave" at moment.. got a lot of time to go to the house every day and take photos... haha you see my replies very fast. And also got more time to do homework for the house lor. hehe More legwork to recee pricing. ehhh LOL I'm not sure how to type out the breakdown. I try. (All half height windows, using roller blinds) MBR - 1 panel (2060mm x 980mm) - $140 Bedroom 1 - 2 panels ( total: 3050 x 980) - $200 Bedroom 2 - 2 panels (total: 3050 x 980) - $200 Bedroom 3 - 2 panels (total: 3050 x980) - $280 MBR, Bedroom 1 and 2 use normal Blackout materials. Bedrom 3 (MINE) use blackout material with satin sheen... thick satin material I think. On top of that price, we had to pay GST. They will come to take exact measurements but this price is 99% confirm liao. Installation included and can be done one week after measuring. They work even on Christmas day. Pulldown-spring system and chain system both same price. We chose chain cos more durable. During schooldays see those pull down OHP screen always spoilt. Thanks for dropping by at my blog... *shall not dwell on unhappy matters too*
  9. ye no choice about the MJ. My family plays using the coffee table. We drape a cloth over it to lessen the noise of the tiles hitting the glass. wahaha Ye, sadly on the average it IS more ex. Also they prolly need to be specially treated to prevent the natural material from being damaged fast....
  10. haha you all very cute le! wow pool recreation area?? I wonder how that will turn out! Sounds so luxurious! HEY after confirming ID got a lot more things to confirm before furniture wor.... That A-Win ID is ridiculous.
  11. Wah my dad wanted white main door also. I nearly fainted. Cos if they do washing ah the door sure kena will turn BLACK! :P:P
  12. hehe for my family, my dad takes measurements right down to the last millimetre. Very meticulous so Lucas from Jimmy Textiles was surprised too and said that with such accuracy he could give us an accurate quote also. He says difference of a few centimetres doesn't make much difference in pricing anyways. Mmm yes.. open windows roll up. But we'll most likely roll it up halfway. Rarely let it up all the way. Unless it's very strong winds the blinds wouldn't flap too much with the white holder thing at its end I guess. In my brother's case he never opens the windows...
  13. WAH new door and the black framed balcony door so nice!! slightly tinted somemore. *congrats* really ready for u alr... Can't wait to see it with furniture.
  14. It's ok. Just really curious too. PMed you "Uncle" I'm not young either.
  15. Ahhh Congratulations... Aiyoh your living is so big cannot play there meh? I love the seats you bought? what do you call them? Day bed? haha I dunno but it looks fantastic! Expensive?
  16. haha YES I just found out today from someone who used to live in Simei also! I shall find the remaining 3 beauties. hahahah so funny one le. didn't APEX5 do a quotation for you? My room's window about 3m long, need 2 panels will cost $280 cos my satin material a bit more ex. My sister and bro's, normal material, cost $200 each. We went to 4 shops at Tanjong Katong Complex and decided on this one which was the cheapest and most professional. We've already began packing! haha amazingly 5 of us have about 20 medium sized boxes and a few big bags. I asked a friend of mine who recently moved... 2 of them had 20++ boxes. *PHEW* My sister is an excellent packer. her policy is ... if you haven't looked at it in the last 3 years you'll never need it again. THROW! Last thing about cleaning blinds... just pull to the max (gently of course) and wipe them down. That's all.
  17. hahaha good luck to them As for me I'm not fussy so... *close one eye* Today we went to Jimmy Textiles at Tanjong Katong Complex to order roller blinds for each room Sister's room.. it's actually white but the lightings in room too warm... Brother's room... black Parent's have sliver glittery ones which I have a satin black one. Roller blinds for everyone for easy cleaning and we needn't taken them down for washing. I hate having the conventional curtains cos ley chey la.
  18. I think you can make the police report already. Even the boss has made. It's a hopeless situation. Even if he return PART of the money then the rest le? Not to mention he delay your renovation process. Good luck! haiz.. Just a question.. when you paid to him.. no receipt at all?
  19. Reserving the extra room for something else? Why not put the study in there?
  20. *agrees* talking to them gives plenty of ideas. usually after a few you will have a good idea of what you really want and eventually you can design things yourself and maybe even toy with the idea of coordinating!
  21. hehe that's nice your son go and choose with you. My brother dunno go where. Interesting bathroom lights!
  22. oo Didn't see your reply from a few days ago... ya Can imagine how busy you are. I whole weekend also busy. Bought all my stuff liao left roller blinds later I go and choose. Yes yes as long as it's a revamp.. who cares! But it does explain why not in good condition.. usually tenants are like that... so sad really cannot change wor. bo pian. nvm I'm sure the one you buy also good one. You even bought all your toilet accessories at the same place wor? I'm still slow on that ... MmMm seems like when your tiling is done my tiling will begin...
  23. Hi Lynette... was just wondering if they called to explain why you don't have the mattress? was there any word or reason from them? End of the yr it's common for things to be delayed but with proper after sales service I guess it's acceptable. If delayed and no word at all Then it's not ba.
  24. If it's just the door it's quite easy to clean ba. just wipe the surface can liao.. You're right. we did save a lot I guess.
