Nice! i have not seen this software before. Think the reading corner is a great idea! I want to do something similar also in my spare room, hehe... Are you placing a partition wall behind the sofa? Wouldn't it be better for the dining area to be able to watch tv also?

welcome. Saw that you are not redoing the floor and kitchen walls, then think you should be able to do it under 25k if you get a good contractor.

Haha, gd that you managed to get good service...

Hey, your kitchen is looking good! Have you bought your sink? Cos some sinks cannot be undermounted. I bought mine before telling my contractor that i want to undermount. However the sink was not suitable to be undermounted, so no choice loh...

a lot of the prices are for display sets.. If you don't mind, it's still alright as they don't switch on the WM display sets..

Seems a bit ex as you are not doing kitchen and bathroom/toilet floor and wall. No painting or plastering also?

yes, think you need to get approval to extend bathroom or toilet area. Heard from my contractor that the approval is not easy to get. Therefore we just installed the vanity area outside the bathroom with a partition wall. The area will still be dry, so it's not considered as extending the bathroom. You can try to check with ossify, think he extended his bathroom into the kitchen.

Haha, so many complaints against singtel! they better buck up! :fire: That's why i'm a supporter of M1, as shown by my kitchen.

paiseh, house still quite messy from all the unpacking and cleaning... hope i can clean up all the stuffs during the weekend and take pics.

think maybe thrown away, hhaha....

my old flat also is like that... not much issue with it.

Had a couple of bad experience with singtel already, think their general service culture is really quite bad...

finally got my internet up after much trouble.... The letter that singtel sent me asked me to install from a CD but they didn't give the CD! When i called up, then they say that they stopped issuing the CD a few months ago... -_- I couldn't connect despite the instruction from the person on the phone and had to endure many calls and chasing before they finally say that they will send someone down to check at 7pm. But when i rushed home from work at 7pm, i called them again and they said their men will only come out loh... whatlau, made me rush for nothing... After the technicans came down, they did some tweeking outside the flat but still couldn't solve. After some checking, then it turned out besides their problem, alan's guy also didn't connect the tel point correctly. The singtel people refuse to help adjust the other tel points, saying it's not part of their work, although it took them less than a minute for a point.... So unfriendly... So I'm getting Alan to send his guy down on sat to rectify the other points, will get him to help me drill and install some stuffs FOC also.

lol, your reno has not started and your t-blog is already 9 pages long! Do you have a theme for your reno?

hey SGK, glad to see that your house has turned out nicely! Like the concept of the tree in your glass study room very much. For the balcony, i agree that a japanese style low table will look good. could be a good place to gather around and play board games too, haha...

Congratz on the end of your reno! Nicely done! Did you get the glass covers from IKEA also? How much does one of the billy bookshelves plus glass cover cost?

looks good. your living room floor tiles looks very similar to mine.

after you see the result swee swee, must still work hard to maintain it swee!!! that's what i am finding out now.... haha....

ikea has some nice and cheap rugs. I bought one for less than $100 but haven't use yet, so can't comment on the quality.

progress seems to be too not bad. I had the same problem when they removed the lights in my house also. So i would try to rush home after work so that there is still some daylight when i reach. haha... *edited for typo*

One place you can try is the king koil branch at Marina Square. It's near the Golden Horse outlet. I was surprised to find that they sell sofa there too, and they are not too ex. You can check out my blog for the comfy orange L-shaped sofa that we got from them.

yup! that's why my kitchen has orange! Even if our cooking is not very nice, it will also taste good to us as we are hungry. hahaha.... Angteko, why don't we see your signature teko hanging around?

Singtel was supposed to activate my home phone line and broadband on sat but there was some problem. There isn't even an dial tone when we plug in the phone. Tried calling singtel up but they said they can only send someone down to take a look during office hours! so frustrating...

i'm back to s'pore from my trip le~ alamak, spent the last few days cleaning up the house and washing/drying clothes.. just used the daiso sponge yesterday to clean the white gout of my floor, it's really quite effective! but it was still quite tiring to clean the whole floor. Must take note to try not to step on the gout, lol. Learning that maintaining a house is actually not that easy, hopefully it will get better as we get used to it loh...

i'm overseas now... will carry on to show the pics of my bedroom and platform bed when i am back. stay tuned!
