Despite all the bad reviews on renotalk, I decided to purchase a sofa from FC because the saleslady promised top quality work. I even gave a good review here.. Delivery was due on 16th November and I called service hotline on 4th to reschedule to 30th November. Someone called us later to inform us the colour of the sofa is out of stock. I understand it takes at least a month to customise the sofa. Am surprised it was inform so late which I believe they totally forgot about our order. This is totally unacceptable considering we paid our deposit on 30th June, a good 5 months earlier and paid the remaining amount on 15th October. We choose the sofa because we were attracted to the unique colour and to be informed so last minute the colour is no longer in production is outright ridiculous. We went down on Friday and could not fancy any other colours. The store manager promised us FULL refund. The main office called us today and told us they will refund us full refund. (DUH!) It is very distressing having to find another sofa so last minute. Boo

Didnt know ur hub so talented.. Did he play during the wedding? Hee! Enjoy ur new plc both!

Awwwww.. So kawaii-ne! Ur plc looks lovely! Well done babe!

Icic! Haha! Tx for tip! Hope u r settling well!

Hi Mrs E, Urs juz painted over with paint? But likely u left it raw. Didnt liked the sandy feel and so Alan suggest to lacquer it.. Hmm wonder any other ways?

Hi Cathc, ID helps with project mangement and provide 3D designs. And they engage contractor who has his own team of pple. Of coz u hv to pay a higher fee becoz of these services. U bypass the middle man and go straight to contractor, savings are substantial but u need to put in more effort to manage ur reno. My contractor has his team of electricians, plumbers, painters etc so u dun hv to source them. But there are members who source individual grps but again, u hv to do the coordination. I didn't and merely hv a contractor. My design ideals are fairly simple and I do not see a need to engage a ID for my case. His contact is in my signatory. His quote are fairly reasonable and he does provide design ideas. HTH.

Alan say lacquer leh.. So m concern... ><

Oooooo.. So fun! So many games!! Thk i wont b gg out if i hv that in my house! So fun! Haha! Sorry, i support ur hub in this case

Hi sharon, Do u plan to leave ur brickwall raw or gg to paint it? Mine contractor suggest lacquer.. What does urs recommend?

Haha! The steamboat looks yummy! Enjoy ur misson possible graduation!

Hi peeps, for those doing brick wall, izzit true no need do chemical wash on bricks? Just dust it off and paint over them with lacquer?

Not very good in finding fanciful stuff on taobao. We only order basic necessities. Simple lights, shower systems and some accessories. The China agent check the quality and she email me a photo of all the items. Thumbs up for her service. It was sent out two Thursday ago and it arrived yesterday. Packing was good and solid. Taobao purchase by Vi&Seb, on Flickr Our lights are very simple. Philips lights for kitchen and guestrooms and for toilets, it's just a holder with bulb. Lol. Savings from those is all put into the dining and master bedroom lights. We need crystals lights for our dining table (due to fs) but didn't want anything fanciful. Found a simple led light and it holds crystals (yeah!) dining table lights by Vi&Seb, on Flickr For the bedroom light, it is quite a headache. My master bedroom become much smaller because I insisted a TV and it will be mounted behind the warerobe. We want a hanging pendant light but didnt see anything that we fancy for a long time. Saw a lovely one from renotalk and found out it was from ikea and rush down the next day. I stood at the area for a good 30mins thinking whether it is too big and decided to let it go. Boo. master bedroom by Vi&Seb, on Flickr ikea by Vi&Seb, on Flickr Finally saw something simple on Sunday. It is not very bright due to the layers. Saw another one that is cheaper and more practical (brighter) which Seb love that but I love this more and in the end, heart wins over the brain. master bedroom lights by Vi&Seb, on Flickr master bedroom lights by Vi&Seb, on Flickr Am glad our light shopping is over. Let there be light on Friday.

Honestly u r doing great! Ur house looks fab! And furnishings not even in yet!

Nothing done on site so no photos.. >_< Taobao stuff received ytday but it was pitch dark so no photos.. Let there be lights on Friday.. Basic neccessities.. Basic lights, rain shower.. Glad I save some monies on that. Got a simple dining light with crystal (fs requirement) and a bedroom light in sg that cost 1k. I sux on bargaining.. am sure i kenna chop .. Next time must work harder to search on fanciful lights on taobao.. Lol.. Will post them when i reach home..

Yup.. I will miss the reno process.. Lol! It can b stressful but soooo fun! Met so many nice members on this forum!!

Icic! Good hubby! . Congrats on ur little one! Oh cool! Looking forward to ur pics
