Bro, think all the lighting store you mentioned above belong to the same group!

The seller of my new place had OpenNet installed in what was his living/dining room, but we're converting that into a large dry kitchen, with build in cabinets, so obviously the Opennet termination box will need to be moved out before my build in cabinets can go in. I spoke to OpenNet, they said the earliest their contractors can go and move the box is October, no considerations, no exceptions. So I told them no can do, because I cannot wait for them to finish my house. The woman I spoke to said, go ahead and build your cabinets and call us in October to relocate the point (charging me a f*cking $450 to do so!!) I told her I am not going to do anything until I get written confirmation from you company that you will not require me to dismantle my cabinets to get the original box... she said she's can't do that. I've escalated my issue to her supervisor who is supposed to call me back within 24 hours. Other than taking the bloody thing out myself, what else can I do???

i got loads (about 20?), you can have it for a nominal sum... PM me to discuss

Adidaem, wish I had the patience, talent and creativity to do what you do! all the designs are in my head and I can't seem to put them into something visual for other people to see!!

there's a store in park mall at the very end (closer to fish and co side) that sells some nice lights, Veillux

wish the stairs at my place could be as open as this.... but unless I do rebuilt, can't move/change the stairs

Ely, remind me never to get on your bad side

AMEN to that! surely, except next week i'll be in JB/Manila/BKK (one night each place!!) ok lah, suited the linear bauhaus look we were hoping to go for..... got some discount coz the sales girl was Filipina and I could speak Tagalog! Amazing right??? I didn't even bother to reply?

hi hi.... can't wait to see the final revamp! come visit my place when it's done too!!!!

hey Ely, you should submit pics of your pets here: Nice design blog

actually so do I. I've been good and have kept to the one in - one out policy recently..... but it's so hard to keep my word when I find Tods at 60% off in an outlet store in the UK!

hiya! may I ask you if the mirror on top of your WC is a storage mirror?

hey adi, great compilation of vintage/junk shops!!! been to david's, junkies corner and the one in craig road..... really need to root for stuff but if you're patient (and lucky) you can find really good stuff! the expat auction is good too, as is the classified section of the expat forum

so much talk about weddings here!! my first one was so long ago digital photography wasn't even invented yet! better get back to csingeu to talk about his reno!!

Ely, I am going to print out pics of your shoes to show the partner, he will never ever be able to say I have the most shoes in Singapore again!

The weekend was an expensive one.... got all our mixers/taps from the Econflo sales, good deals on Hansgrohe stuff. Then went to Park Mall to look at Veillux (spelling??) lights. Bought our master bedroom reading lights and the dining room lights.... here's a sneak peak... Dining light, ,the wood will be in dark oak Reading light, likewise in dark oak

thanks!!! really good to finally meet too! the realization just hit us when everyone left that there's a **** of a lot of things to do!! Marcus just shocked me with our electrical quote.... more than $5k but no choice coz we have to hide all the exposed trunking. Need to find lights for the attic bedrooms, am considering the cheap BASIK pendants from Ikea, coz the guest room's gonna be mainly used for MJ anyway Plus lights for the stairs, plus bowls and sinks! may take time off work tomorrow to finish all this coz work travel will start the week after! Looking forward to our Saturday footy nights, neighbor!

finally full frontal (no dirty minds please) pics of the dressing table!!! I want something like that!!! will show this to my ID later!!!

Not in any way related to this, but thought it was a good deal: Smeg

hey no updates??

Hats off to your originality... love what you've done, with junk shop finds to boot!!! have been to that store in Tanjong Pagar. great place isn't it? There's another one in Rangoon Road that's full of treasures too!

hey.... been away on biz travel, and finally got the time to look through a few pages of your blog.... really really nice!

Have written him to ask will let you know if he does write back!

If I didn't have the coffee table anymore I would love this! Gorgeous!

Thanks Thanks! I have the safety glasses already from my time as a lab geek, so will just have to get a mask, and make sure I wear a super old tee while doing so.... glad to find another female in the forum who likes getting their hands dirty! I have a few pieces to "do up," though part of me is thinking of leaving them in their dilapidated state so it looks more lived in... The new place also has some solid wood cupboards (!) that need to be sanded and stained.... so this should come in handy!!
