Hi hi every1. Didnt come in here and so many pages liao. So much posions ard ah I looking for a knife block.

Wah got surprise when i click into my t-blog.

Hi would like to check with u on the kdk fan. Does ur fan have gaps above the blades? I also got mine from Everjoint but my electrician helped me to install.

Yes, yes i was there! Saw many ppl so didnt ask my gal to go up. That means we may have seen each other. I have yet to meet Teo Ser Luck in person but i agree he does look handsome. Vivian Balakrishnan also handsome leh, or shd i say got charisma.

at first glance like u posting but looked closer the nick has another digit 2 and w/o the pic

Thanks! Will go get this.

Cos its more to outdoor, if u scrub it every weekend to wash the floor, will the epoxy paint gets scrub off too?

The colours he suggested are more pastel type. Gals - yellow/gold master - blue/ lily white type living - lily white/blue white/ apple white study - any colour except yellow kitchen - any colour except black (a little is fine) So in the end, whole hse is 90% lily white (or close to it), gals' room is yellow. MBR has lavender mist (purplish) at headboard. Yes, sept hols would be gd. No need to worry abt the kids' study time and more relax for u to unpack. I saw the YOG torch relay at amk on Sat. Cant believe that can see Olympic torch relay in my life. The bedok reservoir was quite long right? Heard on the news that its 1km for that torch bearer, and so special to have it on water.

Thanks. The colours all to match the existing marble flooring. Actually we wanted more wood and grain type but no choice as the flooring is already quite complicated. My gals' room kind of fixed cos FSM recommended suitable colours. Actually he said gold is best for them. But cant imagine gold walls for gals. Still got some stuff not done. Like the MBR toilet shower screen, more downlights in the study room. Painting next to tv in living room. How is ur progress?

The kitchen, we pratically hack everything here. Even changed the hook to hang clothes. Wanted black counter top but FSM said no no to black for kitchen. Before After

This is bedroom 2, my gals' room. Did laminate flooring, built-in study table, top hung cabinet, L box with 5 downlights and repainted over the wardrobe and walls. Before After

I didnt take many 'before reno' photos. Here is another view of the living room. We have not bought the coffee table. May not get 1 cos like my husband said, more table spaces, more clutter. Before After The ceiling with KDK fan

Oh i see.

Wah! hopefully got pots and pans there. Must tell my sis too. thanks for sharing.

Lots and lots to choose from and dun forget the colours too. My husband and i was scratching our heads and trying to visualise the colours to match. Price wise definitely cheaper than those branded type from Lifestorey etc. If u were to compare to those foldable type from ikea (less than $20 for 1), then gnee hong would be ex cos they are design chairs. If compared to higher end chairs from ikea, sure i go for gnee hong. I'm sure ur wife will be able to find 1 that. Happy searching!

Looks like got to get my pt time maid to clean it regularly.

Ya lor, cannot position. Like wat u see in the pics, my gals put little things to display (which i dun like). So must watch out when doing carpentry. I will highligh to my id and see what she can do. Now 7th mth coming husband said cannot do anything so must wait.

Pai seh, i also dunno leh. Done by my id. Dunno is it from metalworld or the id co do. Cost us $500+.

No la, just encounter it personally. So want to make sure others dun end up like us. BTW ur 3 shelving next to the TV in living room is quite special. Like children tilting their heads.

I told my husband that he can lie on it to sleep like Xiao Long Nu, u know the highly skilled lady in white in Condor Heroes. She sleeps on an icy bed. Any idea where to get the detergent for marble? Normal supermart like NTUC or Cold Storage? I use magic clean every alternate days and mop once a week. Also use normal flooring detergent

Nice 3d! I noticed ur fridge, must take note whether can u open the lower door. Cos for mine, too close to the wall.So now can open 90 degree but having difficulties taking out the big veg drawer to wash in future. If I can open the door more, then this wouldnt happen.

Wait for Comex in Sep?

Wah u very steady, are u an electrician? Can save a lot of $. My KDK BB fan wobbles when use at speed 3. Can let me know how is urs when u try? thanks!

Initially we wanted to do curtains. Reason being it is easier to maintain and able to hide the ugle bronzy grille which we didnt change becos of budget. At our old house, we didnt have made to measure curtains, only bought from ikea. So at the new house nw, we thot of having curtains. ID said she will recommend. After the electrician saga (shall tell the story later), we had our doubts. The co didnt come on the 1st arranged date. Nearly wanted to engage the famous Mr Chew. The sales rep came and recommended blinds for our hse. Never will I thot that I would do blinds becos of the maintenance. (I'm a super lazy person ) He assured us that its easy to clean and the individual strips of PVC will not collect dust. Furthermore can really hide much of the grilles as the curtains will be drawn. We are ironic ppl la, want to hide grilles but also want the house to have lights in to shine bright. So here's the end result.

Another review, this time is 'The Green Furnishings' @ Woodlands We saw an advert in the newspaper and went down on the same day. It is quite a normal looking shop with big shop space, selling mattresses to children's bed set to sofa and dining sets. I didnt think that I will buy anything from there cos the shop appearance doesnt give me a good vibe abt the shop. Or shd i say no classy feeling. The sales rep approached us and I left my husband to decide cos he uses the sofa more. I wandered off and look after my active toodler. When I came back, the salesman was recommending another set of sofa to my husband. Thou more ex than the 1 we intended to get but look different with the round edges. It was comfy and my gals also like it. The sales rep was patient and wasnt very pushy. He also gave us some advice on how to match the cushions. After some considerations, the deal was on. The delivery date was arranged and we paid half the price. 3 days before delivery, the sales rep called to inform that sofa not in yet. Still in shipping mode. And no confirmed date! We have already confirmed shifting in and imagine no sofa to sit on? We were feeling . Sales rep apologised and husband told him to get a loan set for us. He promised to nego with his office and would get back to us soon. A while later, called back and said that they will loan us a sofa till the actual delivery. We have been sitting on the sofa for a week, the lounge side (L-shaped) seems softer and sort of sinks in when we sit. Went down yesterday and told the sales rep the problem. He said that could be due to several reasons, but he will arrange for some1 to come on site to check. Called again this morning and confirmed the appt to check our sofa. My husband who deals more with the rep, commented 'Good service' for him :good: :good:
