  1. Hi Lynn, We got the recommendation from our ID. Sorry can't help much.
  2. ugh. First, our Miele washer drain pump had broke down 2 weeks ago. They got it fixed without much hassle; cited this is a rare case. Technician said this is the first time he is experiencing this in his Miele career. Today, our Brandt chimney hood broke down. -mrs merry
  3. We used the brand Hanstone for our quartz tabletop. So far so good!
  4. hello may i know where did you get the coffee table and how much does it costs? And also how much is your TV console too? Thanks in advance!! - mrs merry
  5. hi Lynn, Actually our ID let us choose it based on our idea for the house.. so..no idea where it came from actually. lol.
  6. mmm mmmm i love your house! all clean n bright. Question.. lol issit hard to maintain? got any pictures of the bathroom?
  7. HI All! Long time no reply! lol Yes im strongly against cove lighting as i cannot imagine the amount of dust n dirt tt will . yes, make no mistakes, dust WILL settle and dirt will accumulate. PLus , its very hard to clean i imagine. Loving my stag, now i just need a wolf and dragon to make it the games of throne house. Haha And yes i dont have green fingers but im trying! Personally i think the costing of renovation value is directly linked to the amount of happiness u feel after u settle down and just start maintaining the house and enjoying it. So i think its money well spent. =D -_- i did find the scrubbing of the beige white floor tiles abit irritating..
  8. Ah. I haven't start my baking journey. Shall share some tips (if i succeed )once I get our house organised. - mrs merry
  9. oh Sarah, where did you get it from? Do you use natural shampoo and shower wash too? - mrs merry
  10. updates by mrs merry: Lucky Merries! We gotten a plot of land to do gardening! This community garden is just below our block. This afternoon Mr Merry is busy tilting the soil getting all ready for some green adventure. And I concluded. He is not a fan of greenie. Haha Let's hope our lady's finger seedlings prospers! And same with our ginger. We also placed today's food waste into the soil to act as compost! And watered it down with our rice water. There are days where you can dim the lights and enjoy the cosy evening with a good read on the sofa. My new experiment. I wanted to go for a more natural and healthy lifestyle. Decided to order soapnuts online. Wala! It really works ! Best thing, the soap nuts after 3 loads -> can be used as compost for my plants! No more chemicals! All natural!
  11. updates by mrs merry: Here are some pics with all the lights switched on. Thou i think pictures are not doing it justice. Sorry for the delay ! Our house is still relative bare; and surprisingly you dont need that much to live. MOST IMPORTANTLY - it's so easy to clean and quite child safe. Tested with a 2nd old boy running around the house during house warming. YAY!
  12. Thank you!! It was a gift from a friend who just came back from New Zealand. It was actually our housewarming gift. And Mr Merry simply loves it and fits the main door so well. I guess we all have different budgets and expectations. It took us couple of years to save enough to transform a space to a home we always dream of. And so far, we're loving it every moment. N On rental costs - SO AGREE!! Since I work with a retailer. Most costs are driven by wages and crazy rental prices demanded by landlords. Yes, permanently location. I don't think anyone will steal our toy that fronts the house. It will bites any stray hands touching it. LOL Yes indeed.. Hahaha Eh..not really if you used the static duster. So far it had worked wonders for me.
  13. hello sleepy! We have 13single downlights and 8 dimmable downlights. So much lesser than yours. And yes, Mr Merry is strong against of cove lightings. Since you had asked us, we will say yes IT IS NORMAL!! lol
  14. Agrees. Yes, it's quite hefty to have that constructed for a whole house. But its so worth it.
  15. Thanks!! We love it too! Except that Mr Merry complains that occasionally he can feel the movement of the strips as he stepped on it.
  16. Cloth! No, no!! Use a magic clean duster. The dust sticks on the duster. In actual fact I used 1 piece per mth. And I also used it to dust the TV console and many others. And with cloth, invest in a good piece of cloth from 3M. I have one that's costs about $5 from NTUC; so loving it. Effortless and dust clings on it and easily rinse off.
  17. Will take some pics tonight for u! Yes, indeed it save us from sourcing different lightings. Thou its more of Mr Merry strong preference for nothing jutting from the ceiling (lights and wires). So it's all false ceiling for the entire house.
  18. Thanks Makanology! I'm so tempted with accessorizing; but Mr Merry said don't do it for the sake of doing it. It got to be things that inspires us and not another pretty collection of things.
  19. updates from mrs merry: I dust it with the magic duster every 2 weeks. It's really not so bad.
  20. updates by mrs merry: the house warming activities finally started..gifts for the Qhouse..greenies and a stag from New Zealand.
  21. but hor... cleanning will be a problem.. not kidding you. Coming from the man who cleans the dishes after dinner.
  22. Mr Merry here. Alamak of course la.. ur house so much bigger! but the quality of the led lights is so much more different than the average led u see in everyone's home. how many lighting points do u have?
  23. thanks for the compliments! Haha It was our ID's introduction for the lights. He tried for a few jobs before and find that the quality is decent and it fits our requirements. They have some market pricing rates for ID, so lets not go into there. mrs merry.
