  1. And my precious chair! Dint realised its by a up and coming designer when i got it , very comfortable! Apparently won some awards also! The sofa! fairly simple la but clean lines and comfortable thats what i want from my sofa. The view from the sofa. Think im missing some greens in the house. and my silly over thick mattress on the my beautiful bed frame D: hahahah we had a good laugh when we fitted the mattress on the frame. O well..
  2. And so the day continues! Finally its all up!... ok ALMOST. Welcoming the 3rd miele member to my family! Got her at a sale for 499 at HN with free box of filters worth 100 bucks so..ok la no S8, this is good enough also! The table is here! Loving its natural textures! But turns out its abit wobbly.. so calling them to come fix it on moving in day nxt week. Love love love!
  3. Thanks greglhc hehe we have been spending time in the new house together..
  4. Hello wtg54, its actually quartz i did it for both sides though on hindside i really dint need it for the sink side. but it looks too cool Really dint like crystal glass. Did marble for the vanity in the bathrooms though, at the sides also to protect against any water splashes but luckily dint cause we dint like the feel of the marble. Hope it helps! BTW i dunno the cost .. Mrs merry might have but i doubt so as the amendments keep going on i think the quote for the worktop is lost somewhere... lol
  5. ok steady i will get tt issue just to support u!
  6. lucky ur island top not black also. i heard the white water stains are even worse. and if u not using like quartz where it doesnt stain , it will seep in! But take hard its tiles, just use a mop and its clean lol. My problem is opposite of yours for the flooring. -_- My floor too rustic, cannot see dust/dirt. Now die die must buy vacuum to suck if not dunno if its clean anot. And yes im using myrepublic to arrange for me to install the stuff, the customer service girl was so nice to help me do it in the shortest time possible, good bye good riddance starhub. You served me well, once. lol. Update more peektures! i wanna see the lived in look. i can imagine the relaxed feeling. Are u staying in high floors? If got breeze lagi best on a lazy sunday..
  7. Wa . jia you! the whole theme is holding it well! cant wait to see the final product!
  8. heh thanks makan. it feels good to be working on the new home right after the wedding with a sense of building our future together.
  9. Luckily theres still a few deliveries made today. My 55 inch sony tv looks puny on the wall.. Will aim a 65 OLED inch next time when prices are more reasonable. Now the search for the elusive tv console to hold them all continues on! The big *** fridge is here! FINALLY CAN HAVE CHILLED DRINKS WOHOOO. Washer and dryer also here, but because the tap given by the hdb is not suitable and dont "hook up " well, so have to wait for plumber tomorrow again to change the head. (-_- SIAN) before stacking the dryer on top. Ok the serta willow spring mattress is also here as well, however the bed frame is still not . My table, chairs and sofa also. More touch ups from the painters on the dirty walls, carpenters to seal up some holes we found between the carpentry and flooring. Gotta say it looks much better now. Skirting corners were sand down also so its not so sharp. The guys from the PD door also came to reapply white silicon over the translucent ones which has turn yellowish. Yucks. More acid wash/sanding of texture tiles on missed spots of putty or paint. Overall, my ID is amazingly on the ball and quite a perfectionist himself while scrutinising every detail looking for stuff we might have missed too. One thing we dint expect was the not so solid feeling tt the vinyl flooring has given us, though we have grown to love it as its much more " springy " and feels better on the heels for me actually as beneath the clipping system are foam and because of that, you can feel some spots are deeper than some, though its not tt big an issue to me as its much more comfortable to walk on and much Given a choice again i might go for the more solid feel tiles but i think its more of being used to it for 30 plus years. im already starting to grow to love the floor as its not cold and hard when the air con is on and its kinder on my feet. lol
  10. @macuser77 IT FEELS AWESOME. Sitting there on the cleaned ledge.. the hot shower hitting down like a rain shower just purely relaxes the body. ( because im sitting down and the shower head is raised quite high so it actually gives the feeling of rain shower with the flexibility of the shower handle! ) Problem is it takes a while to heat up the water. and how the storage heater looks like in the common toilet. ( actually i would have to look up to see it so its not as bad as i thought it would be. ) In the meanwhile , we were cleaning up the house mopping n sweeping a few times to await the furnitures to come today. See all the cleaning stuff we got for the new house. Its expensive stocking up a new house from scratch! The furniture shop did a booboo and scheduled the deliveries tomorrow instead of today when we took leave to settle everything today! Mrs merry was already grouchy from cleaning the house and she was scolding the furniture company who promised us tomorrow so.. have to take leave tomorrow again.
  11. And so its been a while!!After the amazing day... Finally time to focus on the house with some updates! First all... the outdoor binds are up! Loving the wind and flexibility the binds are giving us. Been using them so far and no issues, and seem to be easy to pull and holding well against the wind. Well.. too bad for the hangers outside which i tot would be able to hold my teeshirt that i left to dry without any clippers.. it flew off.. Sorry whoever it landed on..

  24. Yah la.. now im poisoned also.. spent the whole afternoon selecting the OXO series for kitchen whats it and kicnacks. Yah saw but thinking of the voltage problem and having to get a transformer for such a thing is abit troublesome. Spent the whole afternoon looking at global knifes on amazon.. then realised.. actually locally also selling only at extra 10-15 bucks.. so might be thinking of getting locally instead. Should look at the cleaver and the asian knife.. u will gian also. Aiya see the router should be myrepublic..cause im lookin at it also haha. so all the models i recognised. In fact i just signed up this evening assuming the paperwork gets thru proper..as the girl at the iknow counter inside popular doesn't seem to know exactly what to do.. im thinking of getting the cuisineart blender later on as now cash is tight with my wedding coming this friday!
