  1. Hi guys, my husband & I are intending to engage this contractor for our new 3 room BTO (65sqm).

    We are doing up the 2 toilets & kitchen walls/floors. And doing concrete screeded floors with epoxy coating (not too sure if we can appeal for screeding from HDB hence asking the contractor to quote). The only carpentry is the kitchen.

    Is the quotation reasonable? Any red flags? 

    Thank you for your help!

  2. Hi @matchalatte, your place is so beautiful! I’m seriously reconsidering my moodboard now haha. I’m thinking of hacking my BR2 wall as well & installing those black metal frames. Read up that it was one of your plans as well initially, may I know why you decided not to do it in the end? Was it really costly? 

    Have screencapped so much of your post, it has helped me a lot in planning for my reno! Thank you :)

    with the arrival of my sofa, dining chairs, kitchenware and stuff, furnishings are more or less complete BUT the shoe cabinet and tv sideboard for my MBR are still lying pretty on the floor with nobody to help me assemble. very sad. hubby and i are going to figure it out ourselves this weekend, hopefully we get to at least do up the shoe cabinet. 

    i've done most of my shopping on taobao already, whats left are the finishing touches such as the decor stuff like picture frames, candle holder, cushion covers and some servingware. have to admit i spent yet another small bomb today, which is 1212 and its also a big shopping event in china, though not as big as 1111. 

    right now, i still feel a little self conscious about showing my home here, since furnishings isnt really done but here goes :

    spot the new additions - a deer head decor, new york poster, fake monstera plants and the vitra eames house bird. i totally dig the house bird, its so cute!

    hacked room turned into a dressing area. the malm drawers are from IKEA and they're in brown stained ash veneer. they never used to have this color! so glad they do now.

    laundry area. i love the clothes hamper! it looks small but you can pretty much squeeze tons of clothes inside. it also fits exactly into the space beside the washing machine. this laundry area also happens to be my favorite part of the house. my service yard is extremely windy so sometimes i will just sit on the floor and watch the washing machine do its work lol.

    btw something funny to share. the painter came over for touch up round #2 yesterday and exclaimed that my home is really pretty! he said he couldnt comprehend initially about my choice of dark wall colors but he said that after furnishing "it became very nice". he even took a few pics lol

    next post, i will do yet another taobao review.
