Items below are just for viewing pleasure. No intention of getting them as i have exceeded my budget, and i only have space for them in my heart, but no space for them in my house.

I would very much love to have this in my home. But my heart was crushed when i saw the price tag for it. It was too much for my pocket to handle. Not to mentioned that i spotted the stressed look on my husband's face when i was admiring the chester.

Thanks LADY_R Went down S&C today. Was hoping to do some customised furniture but realised they are not able to. The catalogs they showed us was very much what we can find in Star Living stores. Items are about $150 to $300 cheaper before bargaining. Left the shop disappointed thinking that it will be tough for me to get my ideal bed frame set. Will try to get the contact number of my contractor's carpenter and check if he can make what i want.

Purchased Item - Dining Table Change the leg frame to white color instead. Yes, our white with wood fetish. Happy to settle these purchases, but have to wait at least 2 months for delivery so that will be mid August. Was planning to move in mid July, guess we have to enjoy our meals on card-boxes or some make shift plastic table.

Finally, some purchases after making endless trip to warehouses under the scorching sun. I have to admit furniture shopping is really tough for those who doesn't drive. We have to take cab on a few occasions as the places were really inaccessible. It's easy to hail a cab to our destination, the tough part is when we try to get a cab out. A lot of time is spent on traveling. Purchased Item - TV Console We were trying to find a tv console which is at least 2.2m, with white glossy surface and walnut wood mixture. We saw a lot of white tv consoles everywhere, but very few that are white + wood. So this is the one, busted my budget for a tv console, but couldn't find any cheaper alternative which look as good as this. Purchased Item - Shell Chair Yeah, i don't know what to say, but i simply love this chair. Walnut wood with black leather.

This is the set that i loved most. Luckily, my husband likes it too. Wood with white glossy surface, what i'm trying to achieve for my home. Havent seen this displaying in any of the showrooms. High chance that i will try to get carpenter to fabricate this for me.

Furniture shopping is the most headache for me. So many months into shopping, i have only gotten the sofa. We have been to all the furniture malls and warehouse at Sungei Kadut. Nothing both of us fancy. My husband and i, have quite different opinions. So its not easy for us to compromise on and settle for something we both like. Bed frames, realised that most of them are similar every where, and the choices are very limited. The kind of bed frames i'm looking for.

Not much update these few days. Electrical wiring running completed for whole house. Plastering still in progress. Plastering seems to be a tedious job. The worker started to plaster on 28th May, up till now, only 3 rooms are completed. Really glad that i decided to spend the money on plastering because it really makes a great difference to the entire place.

Found a picture of the CRIZTO toilet bowl.

Walked the whole stretch of Jalan Besar yesterday for toilet fixtures. This is the list of items that i will most probably be getting. CRIZTO 2340 Water Closet x 2 BARON A149A Top Mount Basin (with pop-up waste & pvc bottle trap) BARON A060 Basin (with pop-up waste, pvc bottle trap & wall plug) CRIZTO 1001 Kitchen Sink G FERRETTI 3317 Basin Tap G FERRETTI 3117A High Basin Tap FELDELIS FT-150-4L Sink Tap TUSCANI Robusto Bidet Spray Set x 2 Angel Valve x 2 LUXES Rain Shower Set with TUSCANI Rose TUSCANI V2 Head & Shower Bar SR 23014 Bath Mixer Tap Wall Bracket for Hot & Cold Water Pipes x 2 Total amount is $1639. Hopefully can get more discount when i confirm purchase. Need to do a thorough measurement to ensure enough spacing for the fittings before i confirm.

Cover up hole for kitchen drainage done. Plastering for Bedroom 3 done.

Renovation Progress Window installer took down the window in master bedroom toilet and changed it to white powder coated. Corrugated board laid for living and kitchen to protect my new floor tiles. Workers put white grouting for my grey wall tiles. Tried to ask contractor to use grey grouting instead but he said that it is too late to change as the lines have already harden.

Checked with my contractor about testing for the waterproofing. I'm pretty sure he didn't do it, but he told my husband not to worry. He said his workers are all experienced and if really any leakage happened, HDB will look for him and not us. My husband and i have to believe him, there's really nothing much we can do.

But I never see my contractor conducting the flooding test, and the floor tiles are already laid. Very worried that he actually didn't do waterproofing for my kitchen. What should I do?

Searching for vintage-looking suitcases. Anybody knows where can i get similar ones like these?

Hi laion, that was the reason my contractor told me too. However, my window installer managed to get the permit to do so. He mentioned that the top hung window must wired glass. I have attached a snippet of the approved permit.

Need help! For bros and sis who have completed their reno, how do you know whether waterproofing has been done for the kitchen and toilets? Did your contractor do the flooding process to test for waterproofing?

Need help, anyone knows how to locate wealth position of the house? Did a search on the internet and there seems to be different ways. Confused. If there's 2 owner for the house, does that mean we should have 2 wealth position?

Hopefully, self consoling. I hate the kind of feeling when you realized you could have bought something cheaper at somewhere else.

Let me guess, is your queue number 3?

is it? Noooo.....

Yah it was on sale. After 20% discount + additional 10% discount for Taka member, i paid $80.10

We requested the contractor to remove windows installation when we were doing a 2nd round of quotation. I understand your concern, must let him earn also, if not he might not put in effort to supervise the work.

Took a break today, didn't go on site to check out reno progress. Went down to Taka sale in the afternoon and bought some bath mats and also the Kenwood ice cream maker. Was itching to buy some WMF cutlery and utensils, but controlled myself.
