  1. Met my curtain maker today....being using the same guy 3x since 2010.... - balcony b&w bamboo blinds x3 pieces as my balcony is curved...total length approx 140" - 2 sets of 100x56" bedroom blackout curtains - 3 sets of full length blackout roller blinds for maid and mbr closet room and mbr toilet glass wall - 1 set roller blind for mbr and 1 set normal blind for main entrance windows.... Thats total 7 set of curtains & blinds....total damage $2100... Alvin my cutrtain maker says it will be ready next week.....hopefully it will be up before my mini housewarming next sat....
  2. All rubbished cleared... The house looked spacious now... The PD door for the common shower The floor contrast between kitchen and living area Ready for carpentry works on Monday.....can't wait...
  3. Hi Kstoh, thanks for the advice......I better get my ID to give me some warranty that it will last XX yrs....anyway I will be puting up blinds too, so hopfully that will help to prolong the lifespan.
  4. Hi, my new place is at Telok Blangah Dr. Area approx 125sqm including the recess area and balcony. I even had enuough space to add an additional room for my maid, extend the mbr area and common bathroom area...all these without compromising the spaciousness of the area. Used peeka initally as I wasn't really sure on how to buy from Taobao directly and shipped to Amcon. But after diligently searching thru this forum, I found someone posted a step by step process...and when the first shippment arives, i reaslised that its so easy and the charges are cheaper than Peeka. Also by using Amcon, you can pay for items directly using credit card, which can earn points too For peeka, its all bank transfer, aka cash transaction. Oh, just got notice from Amcon (May) that my 2th Amcon shippment will be delivered to me today or tomorrow.....can't wait to see my loot.....
  5. Yes, the chengai flooring is done..... Lights up too.... One of the warm lights not working....hai..need to change.... Mbr tracklights....the track lights seems too bulky for the 1m track......going to source for smaller pieces. Fanco ciling fan
  6. Finally the supplier called me today to arrange for a inspection. Told me it could be due to the WC being placed too closed to the wall and thus affecting the cover from closing properly...... :'( Shouldn't WC be placed against the wall? I'm really lost for words....
  7. My diy spray painted led ceiling mount downlight. Bought them in white but changed my mind cos black seems more matching for my black track lights. So tried my hand at spray painting it.....seems easy but its not! Can't spray paint the round corners without affect the glass panel...no matter how i tape it w masking tape...ahhhh....so in the end i ended up using a black marker pen! If look closer, i even coloured part of the glass oh well, since its going to be mounted on the ceiling, it shouldn't be that obvious right? Haha.. Well i will know when they are mounted this Wed! Worst come to worst, i can revert to the white colour..luckily i have 2 spares!
  8. Hi, do you mean this? http://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?id=8615299891 Actually i got this seller link from one forummer and i think he has installed without any issue. Happy shopping.
  9. U mean the airplane chair? http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z09.5.0.0.yO28nP&id=22120724021 Seller has tons of colour, just msg him/her and they will send u the colour code. Happy shopping!
  10. Hmm..i'm not sure, as yet to install. But i saw other forummers install without any issue.......i only saw some comments abt taps bought from amzon having some issues....
  11. Just bought this platform fabric bedframe from Air and its at 40% discount! Got it in a light mocha colour! Only downside, gotta wait 6-7 wks for customisation. Saw this armchair cum footstool at 20% discount too...but the waiting time Aug or early Sept! Omg....
  12. Still waiting for the supplier to call me and to take a look at this mis-aligned WC water tank cover! Seems like they are not bothered with such trivial issue! Must keep pushing them.... Thinking if i can DIY...maybe sand down the internal hinge abit.... Its such an eyesore, especially its brand new. Also the colour......its not really white.....really regret this purchase.....
  13. Hi bykaraanne, its 1200mm...got it from Adamas at tradehub 21. Its the smallest in length and cost me $510. Actually just last week, i saw another tub, with those sliver legs....just at the next sanitary shop beside adamas. Looks nice and small too...you can try take a look.
  14. Just at 1 cubic metre....rmb550...
  15. progress this week.... before....aircon unit will be covering downlight on the right....so solution...create cove light instead..... after...cove light box created...downlight sealed & setback of the wall done! new doors for maid's room, mbr and common wc toilet installed....waiting for painting works...
  16. A look at the actual footstool....heehee still in plastic as reno still ongoing.. qutie heavy and solid. best of all, its stable...as in all the legs are of equal height and the stool doesn't shake... The damaged wall clock...."12 - 3" came off....didnt bother to report to peeka as its not a expensive item...but lesson learnt, such flimsy item, risk of damage high!
  17. Hi, this is the link http://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?id=23785224195&spm=a1z09.5.0.0.fONaTi But i think the seller delisted the item . I got it for rmb146. You can try search taobao for other seller of similar product. Hope it helps....
  18. Hi, the toilet bowl in the mbr toilet was changed by the prev owner. Dunno how he did it back then. But i did shift the position of my common WC slightly...which is still ok ar..except that my toilet bowl has to use a "P" trap now instead of "S" trap. Can ask your plumber, they should be able to advise you.
  19. yup the flat type. bought from this store...http://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?id=35841886190
  20. taobao shipment no 3 via Amcon...except for the footstool (top left corner), I have not assembled the others as house still under reno...hope my dinning table and chairs are in tact....keeping my finger crossed. catching on the taobao bug further...my 4th shipment from Amcon....just sipped yestereday.... what can i say, there are risk in buying from taobao...but given the price...its worth a shot....some of the furniture were selling at local stores...for like 3 times the price! only furnitures i bought from local store so far are the sofa and mbr mattress....still sourcing for mbr bedframe....
  21. ok moving on to my taobao loot...yes i followed the bandwagon of alot of forummers....buying lights, taps, sinks and other stuff off from taobao... My 1st batch of taobao.....shipped via peeka...mainly LED lights 2nd batch of taobao purchase....also shipped via peeka....
  22. more photos update bathtub waiting to be put in placed. view of the common WC room... notice the lobang at top right hand corner of the toilet? that for ventilation purpose.....had wanted to put some decorative ventliation bricks but ID commented that it would be unsecure for the person showering next door..haha..so adopt her suggestion to put a window instead....window contractor quoted me $300 for that panel of top hung window....feel like kenna chopped.... View of the maid's room..she had half of the full height window...lucky maid...my friend had at first suggested i put her room in the kitchen..haha....
  23. more "bad" renovation outcome the water pipes holes on the wall too big and uneven...spoilt the effect of this feature wall in the common shower room....will check with ID if that portion of tiles can be replaced. Lesson learnt...if have feature tiles, better to have the water pipe laid before tiling otherwise opt for white tiles, at least the damage is not so jaring...
  24. Oh, the rack is not part of the package...haha ID drew it in for effect purpose....
