heehe karang guni eh? but i do that too! thot i'm the only one who does that. but not all the time la. some things looks nice after its refurnished. lazy to type. wanted applefreak to post her photos but she didnt leh. whens ur reno starting!

wah. the reno quite nicely done leh. repurchased flat cost more then new flat or isit the same? i like the cute handles in your MBR wardrobe. v chinesey. hmm ur shoe cab looks small tho. if i have that i wont be able to fit all my shoes inside! keeke.

wah. people stare at u coz u are pretty leh? what do u mean u look like any others except singaporean. "Do not really get what you mean by the description, probably you can show me some sample pictures then I can advise you better?"

oh gosh.. i'm 1970s too.. feel so old after reading all your posts..

lovely! i like it that your kitchen and living is one long stretch. makes the whole place alot bigger. hmm moulded sink. we wanted that initially but heard its prone to staining. just becareful when u maintain it ya

haha this has became a handicraft thread! haha applefreak i can imagine u on the rocking chair holding your knitting needles with your hair in a bun and cat in your lap. i like the look of crochet patterns but i'm too impatient to try that! i have a simple idea for crossstitch tho.. maybe when its done i will post it. Linda, can! sewing with the sewing machine is easy. can teach u when u buy one. eh u never learn sewing in home econs last time meh?? sumo, yup i hold my tiny stapler gun already think its abit dangerous. cant imagine what your INdustrial gun will be!! but dont u just love it coz it makes things sooo much simpler:) do u mean u wanna make steps for your cat to climb? hmm not sure where u can get those cable rolls core.. maybe have to go to those industrial suppliers stores.. but i've never seen it lor. how big are the cable rolls? use toilet rolls can

geesh i'm jealous of your view too! i look out my window and i can see right into my neighbour's block. hehe. aiyo u mean u thot she was old???

oh i love the inventor of staple guns! make everything so much simpler. just TAK TAK TAK and all done! i upholstered my DIY headboard using staple guns too. Hehe no need lessons one la. so paisey to collect money from a fellow forummer. if u intersted in DIYing some of the things i did just let me know. i'll see if i can post a step by step picture guide lor.

my gooodness! do you work from home ? when was the last time u see your table top:)

Hi Linda, hehe i bought my fake plants from chatuchak lor. plenty there. theres another thread on reno talk on fake plants and they mentioned concourse http://www.renotalk.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=6801. never been there myself though. perhaps u can go take a look and tell us if its worth going ! heeee. wow can post pics in renotalk or not i like to see DIYs. as for the ribbon beadings, spotlight also has! u can find it near the fabric cashier counter. or u can try joo chiat complex.. some of the curtain fabric shops sell.

yep. no choice since its a big company but at least we can hope such a company wont run away with ur money lor. wow.. that means u will be paying up 90% b4 the carpentry and solidsurface.. actually i think carpentry are quite ex. but since its signed, then nevermind.. think positive and have a gd r/s with the ID first.. maybe its also good to tell the ID that your budget is v tight, and ask him what other costs u have to bear, and whether theres any hidden costs (eg haulage, PE fee if u are hacking anywalls etc). make it clear upfront that u can only afford to pay the contract sum and thats it.

i love the dark colours of your walls.. i got black floor tiles in my kitchen, and after living in it for half a year, ants are starting to come. so i like to follow the trails of ants to find the nest. but i realised its v hard to track ants trails or kill insects once they started walking on my black kitchen floor. grr.

i love ur mbr wardrobe! very nice and classy. and ur curtains too... gosh i wan those roman blinds...

good luck how are the payment terms like? make sure u don pay too much upfront. Anyway Chew is a big firm and quite active in advertising, shd be quite safe.

i like the plants display at Tangs vivo and Robinsons.. but so super ex. lifeshop oso no need to look liao. see the price also wanna faint... oh btw the one at cityhall close already? where did it go huh. you can go concourse i think there are fake plant shops there. i bought my fake plants from Bangkok. hehe as usual. i loooove bkk. sawadikaaa

carrefour also got.. i also got one.. but don find it v useful leh.

wow. if u manage to find out the places that sells fabric in bkk u let us know can? that time i went, the fashion not that retro. i've never been to vietnam but my fren was telling me they have lots of handicraft markets. makes me feel like going. i have lots of bookmarks! very disorganized still. was thinking of finding a day to organise it and put the links in my blog but that day never came. will try to put it in 1 day. the ones i usu go are web magazines like livingetc and homes and gardens

nature sanctury?i think look more like a jungle now. my hubby loves plants alot and has been buying lots of plants. even bought a tree! hehe not all guys interested in DIY ma your hubby interested in you can already lor i think mine just interested in his fishes:P hi Chipee, thanks! yep hoping it will be helpful to people thinking of DIYing.. actually when i was typing that post.. i realised the costs that we saved not alot. the most was the curtains.. its just that when u DIY stuff u feel happier as u fill ur home with stuff u made.

wow how many people are u feeding.. how come got 2 fridge!

yea apartmenttherapy is interesting. been surfin that all the time too. Does Bangkok hav retro fabrics???? where??????? i've never seen them. will definately drop by nex time if i know the place. which area is it? yar i still like some of goodrich fabrics coz the designs are nice. but you are right they are so so so super duper expensive. wow think i will dropby concouse when i'm free too. well if its so cheap i dont mind the paper quality as long as the print is nice. afterall if i frame it or decoupage it the paper quality doesnt really matter..

Thats super duper early! wad time do u start work?????

my hubby's from acs too !

add in snails. and fishes like feifeng or pleco.

give both ways and he will never be wrong ma.
