  1. Hello all! The MBR bathroom mirror was just installed today! Here are the pics! The MBR bathroom is finally complete! Sliding glass shower screen.. Basin area, volakas marble top and mirror finally up! Close up of the taps and basin.. Must on water and take picture.. Hahahaa.. Now for the kitchen! Indian black galaxy top finally up, must say some good things about Ocean Granites, their guy who came to install the top was SOOO conscientious and serious.. So concerned about the quality of work.. Even if I, as the owner were to do it myself, I wouldn't have put in so much effort. They did from 9 to almost 4pm.. No lunch break! I didn't even request for that.. I also never eat lunch.. haha.. Anybody wants to swop washing machines? We want a black one..
  2. The Grohe rainshower you showed here seems to have a thermostatic mixer, you need to consider if you need that. I think this setup will cost you about 1-2k whereas a normal Grohe rainshower and mixer will only cost about 600..
  3. Hey MB, Welcome to Renotalk! I'm a fellow Jurong Wester too.. Hehe, St 61 there.. Wish you a smooth a nice reno journey..
  4. Custom made DIAMOND chandelier! Bahahahaaa! Those handles you scrubbed.. Very big difference.. Hahaa.. I think you scrubbed out the outer coating le la.. Rough side of the scrub very rough one leh.. Next time can just use autosol to wipe liao.. Your place has turned out nice nice, dining area looks neat and sleek, living area feels very comfortable and cozy, the sofa looks very comfy! After the bedrooms get sorted out must post more peektures.. Hehe..
  5. wow.. place looks more spacious and airy with the study room gone
  6. Bahahaa... SOO cute! Does he always stick his tongue out? Saw it in the other picture on your blog too.. Hahaa, so cute.. Btw, granite top for kitchen and marble top for mbr toilets are up! Will post pictures soon! Maybe tomorrow!
  7. Nice and courageous design, very open and spacious.. Wifey loves it.. I feel a little uneasy over how open the bedroom feels, I'm the burrowing sort.
  8. A maomao picture for you! Maomao in a shoebox
  9. We were definitely classmates in P3 and 4.. Lilian Lai taught me in 5 and 6.. Sad to hear that she passed away before her time, a really very nice person. Hey there fellow BLGP friend.. We have an LG DD frontloader too, 7kg.. White, we want BLACK! Be careful, the chrome plating on the swing cover tarnishes quite easily upon contact with anything acidic.. Sorry for hijacking the thread..
  10. Hey, about the textured wall tiles you're using there.. Remember we told you we have the same one on our kitchen walls? Don't try to clean them by using your hands/palms to brush them.. We did and got multiple small cuts on our palms.. Wifey - 1 cut Husband - 5 cuts (thick skinned and dumb) We also found out that its very very very very porous..
  11. Hahaa.. I think a lot of people see already also don't know what to say.. Nothing good to say, keep quiet mah.. Hahaa.. I had the same problem once, stepped into house, closed door behind me, took 10 seconds to find a light switch.. funny.. Look forward to seeing updated pictures of your reno!
  12. Big house, big family, big happiness.. Hope u have a smooth renovation, spend a bit on reno is bo pian one.. Good luck and hope you find an honest and responsible ID/contractor.
  13. Strive towards perfection, To lead our growing nation.. ----forgot this line----- Towards progress and prosperity! People from 1993 onwards sang a different song.. Hahahaa.. The dang new principal changed the song! How can?! I was also Pri 6 then, Ms Haslinda was my form teacher.. haha..
  14. Yo takizawa! No more updates?
  15. Hehe, dining table will only be in next week. Its a slight deviation from our natural themed furniture, some cast iron on it.. Haha.. what did you actually type? ***** <-- ? Anyways, thanks, have seen your blog before, not bad.. Thanks for the compliments! SBH is a really nice place to shop for tiles, huge selection, nice gallery for ideas.. How's your home coming along? Scheduled to move in this week yeah?
  16. Welcome! Wifey spent most of her childhood years living in Boon Lay and she went to the primary school u're describing Good luck with your reno, looking forward to your updates! Think u got yourself a really big flat there
  17. I bought 2 cast iron items from Taka, a pot and a pan. Can't remember the brand.. Have this nagging suspicion that I won't be using them much.. They're too heavy and hard, will likely scratch or leave my glass induction hob in a mess.. So we got a set of crockery from WMF, stainless steel and light.. These will probably be our everyday pots and pans.. Have not had a chance to cook using cast iron yet, I bet it'll work dang well. The old school kualis and woks of old were often cast iron
  18. Hehe, its ok.. Pity we already bought a dining table already.. Your teak table looks nice and solid with a lot of character..
  19. Suar wood! We love it! Got a couple of suar wood coffee tables for our place too, different color though.. Talking about cast iron stuff, the other day we saw a Mario Batali cast iron grill pan in Meidi-Ya. With the press/lid on, its almost impossible for females to carry.. Seriously, go try it out, its crazy heavy, much heavier than other cast iron stuff we've seen..
  20. Some of our furniture arrived today! Most of the pieces were covered in plastic wrap, difficult to take picture. The following pieces from Gnee Hong weren't, so here are some pics! Nice old looking chest, on top can open, below got drawer, not bad. A stand and 2 stools, all of the same theme, some floral patterns on them..
  21. Wah, we love the woody shelves in your kitchen, wifey loves the white look.. Hmm.. Our lamps are quite different, hehe, maybe you saw it on some other blog..
  22. Very accurate! Wifey is not happy because that for our new house, every duck thing follows the husband's taste! Angry!
  23. Hehe.. We bought 2 sets of their cutlery and another set of 5 pots/pans.. Haven't used them yet but the quality seems decent. Hopefully. Hehe..
