  1. I'm moving in finally next Friday. Unfortunately I don't know how to upload the photos here, despite trying umpteen times. Maybe you can teach me, and baking as well.
  2. wow wow, very nice. Do you teach baking in your home? The layout seems perfect for a class to begin!
  3. Congrats on your coming wedding and new house! May you have a blissful marriage and many more happy memories at your new home.
  4. hi, I'm in the midst of planning my renovation to my EM as well and the cost just adds up. Did you rewire the whole house or you use back the wires? How many DB box do you have? My electrician advised me to have 1 upstairs and 1 downstairs. That will cost me $400. My quotation to the whole house re-wiring is crazy..... wondering if yours is a more acceptable quote. Mind sharing with me?
  5. Chance upon your blog and wow what an exciting journey for you. We also bought an EM in the North with the same design as you. Now in the midst of searching for ID/contractor Can PM me your ID/contractor's contacts? Looking forward to see and read more from you.
  6. Hi I noticed that the photo of the toilet does not show the ugly pipings. How did you manage to hide them? Any special material since it's the toilet? BTW, love the clean look of your place.
  7. Looking for packing cartons as I will be moving house later in the year. Want to get started to pack so that it will not be a mad rush later. Willing to pay a nominal price and can collect from your place ( North and North east area). Please PM me. Thank you
  8. how much was your diamond air purifier?
  9. It's ok. I went to the previous pages n saw hat they were from ikea.
  10. May I know where did you get the square wooden stools at the kitchen counter?
  11. Does anyone have contacts for handyman? Need to put up the metal pieces to hang clothes on the ceiling as well as to put up some wooden blinds. I do not the proper tools to do so thus need help.
  12. Come explore this range of Nespresso compatibles and machines brought to you by kaaas enterprise pte ltd. Visit the site at www.kaaas.biz
  13. From my experience, I started packing all the non essentials first and LABEL. For example all those kitchen ware like plates and glasses that will not be using were wrapped in bubble wrap (can buy a huge roll from SKP). Use the better quality carton boxes to store them in and LABEL. Same for things like books, display things etc. Can use the bags to keep things like clothes and toys.
  14. What about those from THe Helping Hands along Kovan...... saw some beautiful pieces and prices and quite reasonable.
  15. I got the same one from a shop at Toa Payoh. It sells all things for praying like joss sticks etc. There's different sizes as well.
  16. hey Ely, have been following your interesting blog. Can you pm me your electrician's contact? Will be working on my house soon on my own and need a electrician. Thanks.
  17. Agree that Poh Joo toilet stuff is horrible. it's starting to tarnish after 4 months. Use only at night and morning. Try to fix curtains instead of roman blinds, maintanence is definitely easier. Regretted using black matt floor tiles inthe kitchen. I'm a clean freak and the water marks and smudges are really getting to me. Glass shower screens are also a pain. Very hard to remove the soap scum even though I clean every weekend with bleach. Can see the streaks and water marks after 3-4 days. Also regretted having so many mirros in the house. Makes the house big and bright, but if you don't clean often, can see the dust and smudges. Very irritating.....
  18. Does Mr Chew do Roman blinds as well?
  19. I got the Samsung one, it's black with handle. Got it from the shop at IMM. That's the price i paid with installation. The boss personally comes down to do installation. My door is not a new one, there were some patching to do but the workmanship was good. After a good coat of paint, it was as good as new.
  20. Hi, I am currently using this for my new house. We moved in about 1 month ago. It is certainly very convenient as we do not have to bring any key with us. Just press our code and it's open. There's also two types of biometric cards and key if all fails. We don't even bother to lock the gate now.
  21. I have a Serta mattress too. I use Friven Hotel Range..... I bought this at their main store at Jalan Kilang. The fitted sheet for Queen mattress is huge enough even to tuck the sheet under the mattress. Quilt cover also very nice. You can try looking for it at their new retail outlet at Tanglin?
