MY 2 cents worth about mirrors. In Feng Shui, mirror is a water element. Do not place the mirror facing South, because thats the direction of the Fire element. Water is bad with fire. Mirror facing South-east, East and North is good. East for health, South-East for wealth and North for career. Mirror doubles what they see and therefore it should face your dining table, scenic view from windows, jewellery or any object that you want to have more. For example, reflecting dining table means you will have a lot of food. Do not place mirror in your bedroom as it will duplicate your relations. It might happen that other person will appear in your life or your partners. If you already have such mirror in your bedroom, then try to close or cover it when you sleep, or place it in such a way, so that it won’t reflect your bed. Do not hang a mirror opposite your entrance door as energy enters your house through the doors and windows, by placing mirrors facing front door will reflect good energy that is coming into your house. Do not place mirrors reflecting toilet or bathroom. In this places, the energy flows out and the mirror will duplicates what it sees. Of cos you will agree with me that there will not be any good energy coming out from there. And therefore you will double of what is flowing out. Mirrors on the toilet and bathroom doors is okay as it will help to hide bad energy that is located in toilet and bathroom. But you should place the mirror on the backside of the door.

Hi EM owners, Can anyone share your pics of your ceiling lights are the staircase area? I really have no idea what kind of lights to install for the staircase area.

Thanks. I last minute change the carpenter because their company is at Malaysia and they ask me to give them to cheque that is address to a person and not the company. I find it very uncomfortable. Furthermore, the way they charge is not cheap either. So decided to change a new carpenter that charges 4K less. Somemore the new carpenter throw in the kitchen top also which the previous carpenter did not. But they have not show me their design yet. Hopefully is nice.

Hi Alishong, Do you know how much does your shower screen cost? or does it comes in your renovation package?

So hows your laminates flooring? My contractor just updated me that they only going to start work on Mon as the approval from HDB will be on this Fri. Well another week wasted. So when will your renovation complete?

Welcome to RT. The condition of the house looks good. What will you be renovating?

For flooring, only changing toilet and kitchen. But I did not knock down any walls. Does your quote include the tiles?

So they going to clear the forest near downtown east there?

Wah my price almost the same as yours excluding tiles and toilet accessories ler. Yours got include aircon?

How much did you spend for all these items?

Hi Neighbour, How much did the contractor quote you for your renovation?

Hi Neighbour, Yah finally got my contractor. Contractor should start work soon. But lazy to go and see cos my uncle will be monitoring them instead. Maybe weekend then go and see. Hows your renovation? So far so good?

Thanks Micky. Have been a stalker of your blog. Very nice indeed.

I guess peak hour shoud be slower perhaps. Normally I take train non-peak hours. The information board also put 29mins leh. Haha.

$250 including labour for wall tiles? Is their worksmanship good?

Okay so much for the existing condition. Here's the design plan. Trying to minimise the number of items that I need to custom make. In the end, only masterbedroom window bay, wardrobe door for bedroom 2, toilet cabinets, shoe rack, kitchen cabinets, cabinet for washing machine, Tv console, doors for storeroom and rubbish chute. Total damage S$11,500.

Thanks. For the rooms only polishing of the parquet and some capentry works.

Really!? Hmm thanks for the info. Will check with my contractor again.

Actually intending to do a door to cover it. Thanks for the suggestion anyway

Parent Bdrm Not doing anything for my parent's room. Well they have traditional mindset and that is to save money. But will bring them to choose their furniture for the new house. Guest rm This guest room is located downstairs. This will be my game room, where I will put my Wii here. Second floor Common Toilet Changing everything here. Master Bedroom Toilet Chaning everything here too. Thinking of installing a bathtub but my wife is afraid it will be very cramp. Okay, i give in for this case. Ground floor Toilet A very small toilet.

Thanks. I think the previous owner repainted the whole house white to bring up the valuation.

Thanks. It is at Pasir Ris.
