bluberi

i got the princess steam iron.. my mum bought it but seldom use... she gave it to mi.. i tink it dun really steam the clothes until no cease (correct spelling?) on it or was it i lousy at steaming clothes?

i didn't koe i now wink decal guru liao... i agree $288 is worth after seeing the end result. dat time my reno my ID used number lock.. so we juz remember by the number.. no need key.. i oni move my appliances over after reno complete... i beri scare my things go missing one. the oni thing dat was in before reno complete was my UFO loveseat yes, min. $150 for winktailor if u diy urself yes, after confirm den visualisation... yes, if u diy urself is min. order $150.... hehe, wait u get a shock when u see monroe in the middle of the nite.

okie okie....

u r really fast, i pei fu you. i took 2 weeks to ding dong with Ryan before i confirm everything. the monroe is quite unique but the uncle told mi so far he nv install b4. he said the lotus is popular n beri nice. coz they printed some extra small lotus decals (for juz in case), the uncle juz gave them all to me should i decide to add somemore.. but i tink it's perfect liao. i even suggested to my hubby to put the small lotus decals on the prayer altar coz Goddess of Mercy got lotus one mah.. he said i'm siao. i'm so excited, wan to see ur visualisation.

applefreak, u r really willing to invest in ur kitchen...

wah.. Air, u so fast action liao ar... do show us the visualisation once u've confirm. i love it the moment i saw it!! Greycat, here's the webbie WINK. u can find their contacts in there. i communicated with Ryan thru e-mail. goodrich beri exp rite?

$288 under a promotion.

the visualisation was done after i confirm which design i wanted and the price. mine was under a promotion, so i paid oni $288 i/o having to place the min. order of $400. installation was done by WINK. if u can do the installation urself, the min. order for WinkTailor will be $150. yes, my window is small, oni 2 panels but i still tink a bigger recess area will be better... lol

lifestyle, my recess area is oni a small box nia (see below).. not like linda's recess area... so nice... visualisation fm WINK actual wall with decals

linda, i would love to haf wallpaper like urs, but it was really way above budget (i quarrel with HB over tis lor).. at least he gave in on the decals coz it was much much cheaper than the wallpaper. ur recess area is a box-up wall? i wanted my MBR recess area like tis but my ID made mine so small i was tinking so small may as well dun haf.

i dunno leh, but there will be a wire casing fm the old socket point to the new point. dunno how different is the way ah keong shift sockets.

no need to hack the tiles to shift socket one la... mi shifted 2 sockets in the kitchen, no hacking at all. at first i got 6 sockets, but now oni left 4 (2 on each side of the kitchen) coz 2 was at the hob area where we put the tempered glass backing. fridge is permanently using 1 socket liao.. another 1 will be permanently for the airpot. so oni left 2 sockets to share among the other appliances.

i oni soon bian bio the coffee table as it's in front of the sofa mah... no leh, haven buy.. but i hinted to my hubby dat GST increasing, muz quickly go shopping liao.

i buay tahan lor, it was there for 3-4days.. can u imagine i saw it everyday coz i went to spot check every other day of the reno.

the coffee table in the pic looked nice also.. it's one of the type my hubby n i was looking for.

wah, so happening over at ur place yesterday... no wonder ur hubby is stressed. my new toilet bowl (nt the HDB koyak one) suffered the same fate, wat's lagi best is still got **** stucked on the side for days! i called my ID once i saw dat n told him to get his workers to wash it off. they used my new toilet bowl still got the cheek to leave **** inside for me to see.

my MBR has the same toilet paper holder..

applefreak, hope ur defects will be rectified soon so dat ur reno can begin.

yes, ID handover during 2nd week of may but now my solid top got problem. i dun mind a 4rm/5rm coz i wun clean like mad. the bedrooms in our EA are small as compared to the EA at Anchorvale, but our living room are much bigger. sigh, HDB dun let us get the better of both. either u take bigger bedrooms or bigger living room. my living room oni 50% occupied, the rest is empty. my house is alrite la.. not beri fantastic but is at least pleasing to the eye. but i regreted abit on my laminates for my MBR wardrobe. my other two bedroom wardrobes are much much nicer!! i neglected my t-blog after i started the community blog. here's the link to it. http://www.renotalk.com/forum/index.php?au...blogid=220&

so heng!! mine was 185 by the time i reached at 8.10am. my nest is next to applefreak's blk, i'm at B n she's at A. also an EA. reno already completed, nw still asking ID to get his people com back to touch up coz we always find something nt satisfactory now n then. otherwise, it's juz cleaning n furnishing up the nest b4 we move over. our initial idea was paint it whole room leh, now our room beri bright coz of the Kashmir colour. it's nt so bad after all.

applefreak, tml u'll be at ur place??? i'll be over at my nest for the whole day... 10am till 8pm++ or even later. coz tml WINK coming at 10am to do my lotus de-cals, cleaning in the aftn and delivery of my leather sofa and fisher&paykel washing machine after 5pm. guess i'll bring my laptop over for some entertainment, but no internet access yet!

applefreak, mi actually also wanted coris!! but all booked by 1st day b4 noon. Dfish, wat was ur queue no.? my MBR was supposed to be in Lavender Mist, but after a visit by a shifu, he deemed it too dark for us.. had to change it to Kashmir.. oni recess area in Lavender Mist to set the contrast.

linda, HDB walls are all uneven.. unless u r willing for fork our $$ and get ur ID to do plastering for the whole house. tink my colleague paid close to $2k to plaster her 5rm. my ID quoted me $2.8k for plastering which i tink is too much liao. can spend the $$ for better things. i'll juz live with the uneven walls. should ask HDB do the defects b4 handover... if it's sanitary ware n u dun intend to change to nicer ones, can change after handover.. like dat ur ID's workers wun get to use the new sanitary. i got HDB to change all b4 reno coz i dun wan to ask them to com back another time, plus they do things beri slow. end up i changed all my sanitary ware, i juz kept the new taps dat HDB changed for mi juz in case next time i need them. save $$ but ur flat is re-sale? coz re-sale flat is not covered by HDB for defects.

a law firm!!! they shd koe the rules better!! definately muz complain to CPF board n MOM abt the non-payment of CPF by employer.

better complain to the CPF board.. i tot every mth, there is a deadline for CPF submission for the company? how com ur wifey's company kept on delaying the CPF contribution? no penalty for late submission meh.. applefreak, the stains on the kitchen n toilet floor u meant izit the black black grouting? the grouting on my kitchen n toilet floor was so black (all the dirt accumulated tis 7yrs), i complaint to TO but she dun to hack n replace for mi. coz she said can wash away aft acid wash, the most she get contractor to hack n i muz get my ID to replace the tiles. anyway, we managed to get most of the black black grouting in the toilet tiles cleaned after a few washes. if the TO agreed to hack n replace the kitchen n toilet floor for u, muz inform mi ar.. so i can to her... lol
