nice meh...haha...i see the orange tiles i wanna faint leh...haha.... !!yeah...i will glass it up...no choice...prefer not affect my living room while doing cooking (although both of us dun cook
)..
Heh...but when ppl enter ur door, wont see the kitchen 1st mah...so no need to spend so much on kitchen
Spend on areas where ppl can see at 1st glance more value, hehe...I also loh..actually, glass door v useful. I always close it when cooking esp frying...i hate the smells spreading to the whole hse...esp im the sort who's paranoid abt smells 
U sure cook one loh...sooner or later u or melody sure cook...cos eat outside everyday takes a toll on ur wallet...but u can go ur in-law's plc to eat..save $ !! -
Its the cheapest quote i've gotten *sweat* The other 2 quotations dat i've gotten, quoted me 2K thereabouts. Its hard to compare becos dimensions are different, fabric is different. Sometimes, the price is rite but u cannt find the fabric u prefer...have to search loh. If u can find cheaper ones, of cos its good...i quite heartpain also but its a one-time purchase plus i feel it completes the look, so i hardened my heart & pay !!
Thks v much !! Not hard to maintain lar...no children mah, heh~ But for ppl who cook frequently, i wont recommend white for kitchen. We cook during weekends & i also clean up the whole kitchen. Tiring if have to do dat all the time loh...but bobian cos white can see dirt easily. I would recommend all to use light-coloured kitchen solid tops & darker tones for cabinets. Dat would the best combi although may not look the nicest....

Ahblur, u also having platform bed in MBR? *evil grin* U also hack both side of the walls to do up glass door isit? When its done, rem to chk from the side dat both glass pieces are straight, not slanted leh...it happens loh...such a big piece of glass if nv install properly, v dangerous wor...dat time when ours were done, our ID realised not straight then quickly ask the guy to re-adjust...so dangerous...

They are lidat. Full of crap. Till now still calling me to ask me go collect the keys i gave them dat time & complete survey form. They shld be glad i dun wan to complete survey form for them loh *pui* U have no choice but to call everyday. They can delay for months & months if u dun chase. Not dat we wana be nasty but if they do their job well in the 1st plc, there is no need for us to chase rite? They like to say things like, "only u complain, the rest nv" Or the same old line, "its lidat one" Or the ultimate, "there's nothing we can do" So dun give up!!! U pay so much for a PREMIUM flat so dat can save on reno rite? Then now lidat? How can!!?

I think i will slowly source it out..maybe after my house is done...Mine is only 5th floor..so need to cover cover abit..
Due to my FSM advice i have to find Jade Green..and it appear that Jade green is pretty nice.. Haha...once ur plc is fully furnished, u will noe wat colour u wan for ur curtains
At 1st, i have no idea also..only when everything is done, i noe straight away i wan grey & white. U shld headache abt other furnishings 1st, hehe...but i understd, when renovation comes, very kan jiong one... -
Ya lor, don know hw it can cracked maybe the chair too heavy.So i suggest put carpet to protect the flooring b4 any majong session otherwise heartpain.
Anybody know hw to cover the hole in the parquet cos i am worry to damage further when mopping the floor??
Cracked? Hmm..i notice a crack line in my MBR parquet. But i heck care
I tink dun mop dat area liao..use the magic mop or something if u wana clean dat area? Cos i find magic mop not v wet...I used to mop my parquet then use fans to blast at the floor so can dry faster, wun damage the parquet. But the area with the crack line, i avoid mopping liao loh..later rot then jialat....Hi CheeseCake...Keline intro me to Mr. K so now working closely with K regarding the design..Just finish talking to him on the design and Wao..he packed with reno everywhere..so needs abit of time..Your Design and reno was very nice so that was one of the points that made me sign with K and i like his way of working so decided to sign his company..
Hopefully my reno will start soon..
Hi HiroX, thanks very much for ur compliments
I tink now K is quite busy loh but his time management is very good. He will also give u a schedule sheet for ur reno when its abt to start so dat u can monitor as well Glad dat u choose to sign with him...hapi to find another person who uses the same ID, keke...Enjoy ur reno process...i quite miss it loh, heh~ Now i look back on the pics, its amazing how a flat can be transformed...
Hi Cheesecake, how much is your total damage for your blinds? Yours is roller blind or roman blind?? Is very nice.... Hi Strawberry02, thks very much! Mine is juz normal roller blinds. Roman blinds look abit wooden dat type loh..Total cost me $1090 inclusive of installation. Juz for info, semi-blackout blinds are more expensive than total-blackout...weird rite? I tot i heard wrongly when the guy told me...Mine is semi-blackout...
Cheesecake..U can take 193, 192... To Pioneer mall...
3 stops later then u drop..
Should be like that.. U can see a Mac @ the side of the mall...
But now okay already lar...
Ahblur, the bus 192, 193 is from bus interchange rite? Dat means i need to take bus to interchange ten change 192 or 193? Cannt walk hor? I went to the Mac before..heh~

Oh, i rem liao, hehe....
My reno was quite smooth actually...the only worry was $$$$
But ok lar..quite miss the feelings of surprises & discussions with ID & hubby...now reno over liao, suddenly, i feel very empty, LOLOLOLOL.Sometimes, dun feel v comfy taking the mrt & bus there loh...mayb i tink too much. But mornings in the bus are quite alrite...Sundays are the worst...trying to get used to it...very different from Sengkang loh. Btw, JP got doc for me to see? Got once im so ill i took leave instead cos i duno where got doc in my area & i dun have the strength to crawl to the doc by taking bus. Asked my hubby but he also duno cos he duno hw to take bus & he hardly sees doc...

hi cheesecake!haven't seen you around for some time. oh yes, boon lay interchange has always been a nightmare in the morning but it is just a matter of getting used to it. maybe i am so accustomed to life in the west. so how have you been? guess you need some time to adjust to your new place. it sounds like everything is so exciting and fresh!
Joyz, forgot u which blk leh *blur* Im reali paiseh cos i link blks to ppl *oops* Ya, v long nv visit this blk..tot im old bird liao, can retire...but realli quite miss the renovation times
Boon Lay interchange forever is nitemare leh. Who says Boon Lay is ulu? I tink its the most crowded place on earth loh. I dare to say 50% of the Boon Lay ppl are not Singaporeans...Im quite scared, like kenna out-numbered sia...heh~

Hi... hi... long time no see... hope that everything is fine...May be U want to paste sticker on the glass door... so that all will know there is a glass door...
Ya lor.. I find my sofa too soft...
Hi HSH21
Super long time no see...haha...today juz emailed Phantom also. Looks like ev1 is very bz loh...No leh, not pasting any sticker. Actually, its v obvious dat a glass door is there esp with dat round handle. But my hubby is lidat...he likes to cheong & do things very rushed. I juz feel heng dat nothing happened to my glass door
My sofa now is still very hard...but at the rate my hubby is sleeping & drooling there (im so glad i nv buy a white sofa)...will turn soft sooner or later. Dats y i tink a hard sofa is very impt...can last longer...
look time nvr see u ard cheesecake...how's life....Keke...yingjie...how r u??! Dat time i did receive ur email but forgot to reply cos was changing my seats etc in the office..change jobscope liao...hehe...now is PA & my boss super nice..he bochap wat i do, heh~
How abt u? Read dat ur lights up liao rite? U r not in a hurry so its ok...take ur time. How's the gown fittings??!?!?! I cant wait to wear one too

Long time no see everyone
*coast is clear already*So far, quite a few neighbours have moved in already
Area is not so quiet anymore plus i saw a malay wedding held nearby last Sat. But i still hear strange noises at nite esp when im alone at home so i juz lock my MBR door Some areas of my parquet flooring is badly scratched by my lousy computer chairs (rollers not working properly). So ppl out there, dun stinge on computer chairs if u love ur parquet
Its actually quite windy although i close my main door most of the time. Also, still kenna tripped by my MBR platform a few times when i was walking abt in the dark, lol. Hubby also knocked against the kitchen glass door very hard when he was taking food to the living room after cooking 
My white kitchen is still surviving well thanks to the glass. I still find glass easier to clean compared to stainless steel. Light-coloured kitchen solid tops must be cleaned regularly. But i realised scratches are not obvious on my kitchen top. I have two top cabinets above my sink areas & till now, haven got to use them yet cos too high leh. So now, soft of cfm i realli dun need top cabinets. But then again, i hardly cook..usually very simple food only.
Washing machine & fridge is working well for now. Hecom Seahorse sofa is fine also...i tink its good to buy a harder sofa.
Having parquet floorings & laminated platforms, i tink laminates are easier to maintain.
Monthly bill is about $70-90 so far. Hardly on aircon but when hubby's relatives & frens drop by, they will on the aircon for the whole nite. Abt thrice a mth i tink. Have visited the sportsa stadium & went swimming once but have yet to try the Sakura buffet
Still adapting to life in Jurong West But...i really hate Boon Lay interchange. Its a nitemare.... -
Then went by the this curtain shop,went in to ask for quotation and the actual cause was 2K for the whole house..unbelieveable..so EX..Need help in Curtains..anybody got any recommendation?? Thank you Thank you..
Hi HiroX
Actually, curtains pricing quite hard to compare becos of different fabrics. I have mine done for 1K+.
But mine is:
Living Room (full-length windows) - Full length curtains 2layers
Dining Room window - Roller blinds
2 bedroom windows - Roller blinds
MBR (but window is 2 panel only) - Roller blinds
Curtains can slowly search...after everything is done, look around ur flat & feel for urself wat colours go best to get the feel u wan...good luck & enjoy ur reno process
I quite miss the renovation times -
During my reno... minus all the others ... the water and Electricity only cost $6 if I remember correctly... so I believe K's workers didn't any how use them lor...So far the only extra item they connected was a radio...
Mine was $4 i tink..cant rem very well
Good luck Ivory Im sure K will take care of ur plc Hi Ivory..Same ID...Just drop by to check..for the Defect is it for new house only? Resale one no need right?Sorry i newbie here..dunno anything...So how was your 3D drawing..I find K drawing all veri swee leh...
Just for my Living room already veri nice liao..dunno how it will look when i confirm everything...
Anyway hows your progress?? when starting??

Oic...lol...Mine total 4blinds & a 2-layer full length living room windows. Actually, quite ok lar...some ppl might find them too simple. Someone said why i choose dat colour for blinds, shldnt it be in dark colours cos blinds are meant to block the sun or provide some cover !! String curtains are nice! They give a romantic look...Urs $700+ quite cheap leh. I tot string curtains are quite expensive...
