Welcome to RT and to central area! Hope to see your updates soon

Yes, it is just alright for bedroom at night. I have 2 rows of cove lights in my ceiling.

very nice and minimal look! like the shot up the stairs!

look who has invaded our door handles...

Hi neighbour! hope u move in soon then we can meet for kopi

its a 40 mins walk using park connector from our place to great world city , just tried it on Friday evening

A lot of eating places around us... If from my place (near queenstown mrt) within walking dist (max 20 mins) I know i can go for Dawson Place foodcourt Meiling Market/Hawker Centre IKEA, Anchorpoint, Queensway SC Alexandra Village nearby places (drive a bit , take train 1 to 2 stops or bus not more than 5 stops) Redhill hawker centre (near Redhill MRT) ABC food centre (bukit merah) Tiong Bahru Plaza Tiong Bahru Hawker centre Tanglin Halt hawker center if willing to travel a bit further, can go orchard

agreed! my parents bought me lego when i was a kid almost 20 yrs ago. felt like buying some for my kid to bring back those memories but was turned off when I saw the price

we bought the cloth from spotlight based on the dimension we needed, she helped us to sew it nicely into curtains yeap, saved a lot on the workmanship cost... seriously, i have came to accept the fact that it will never be possible to achieve those deco magazine picture effect forever (esp with kids around!!), yes, maybe for the 1st week, but over time just give up. but we are not going to give up so soon for our new place! haha thank you!

that is good progress for you... sundays were really off days for our workers in the past, regardless of urgent or not.

cant wait to see your lego room!! by the way, where did you get them from?? ebay??

display area for our soft toy collection above study table done up today finally able to take out our new pillows and bedsheet to use curtains done by Mom!

i like the contrasting colors of your sofa!

hey, any idea the dawson place foodcourt open till what time at night?

if you noticed, I have been trying to sell the pond setup some time ago since no interested takers, I brought them over to my new place and convert it into a little garden instead. the granite rock/bricks cost around 100+ to 200? cant really remember cos i bought them quite a long time ago the plant cost me $16 , just got them last wkend

hey but you are within walking distance to Meiling market, they have a couple of stalls with nice food, convenient if you need supper! actually, we used to spend time in town area during the wkends before we shifted, I guess we will probably do the same too, but less travelling half the island now. definitely, that is why u see them working on Margeret drive now... I think they probably need to widen Tanglin Road in the near future, dun think the 2 lanes can cope in the future.

Those neighbourhood hardware shops should have

also added a little planted area outside our doorstep

well, the good thing is that prices are cheaper now compared to 5 yrs ago...

so far so good! despite the hiccups/delays with the reno, we very happy with many things... among them.. super close to town area - we actually chose to take bus to orchard (10 mins away) and vivo instead of driving there... foodcourt and groceries shopping is 5 mins walk away - to Dawson place, but can't beat u very windy - hopefully throughout the year... we only used aircon for 1 nite since we moved in for almost a mth now, it can get pretty chilly at night friendly neighbours clean and quiet neighbourhood/surroundings and of cos, the view, never get sick of it... we caught the national day fireworks from our place just now (actually had ppl coming over to our floor corridor to catch it too) to be honest, after moving out of our old place of 7 yrs, I never really missed it... lol by the way, happy National Day to all, caught this pair of helicopters from our window this evening

that is a nice looking clock, where did you get it from?

our bedroom headboard area is finally up Also have the same black mirror for our study room A view from our living room sofa with the completed TV wall and console

and finally, our headboard for our MBR will be put up tomorrow!!

Another minor addition of a wall display shelf for the study room:

yes, those are tiles, but closely resembles the real thing!
