your mbr is :dribble::dribble:

nice !

Thanks! saw the design from a magazine and asked ID for recommendations!

It's not too bad, my total renovations only about $19K or so for all the carpentry work... excluding electrical works.

How is ur renos coming along?

Looking at your photos, first thing I noticed were the great views of the surrounding greenery...nice! :good: droolz...

I also like your dining lights... clean-cut and minimalist taste.

Keep it up! More photos pls... :notti:

Hi Flying Balloons,

Thanks for sending me the thread. Now I can visualise the love nest you have been working so hard on, to perfect it :) The Raintree is indeed a nice project. I used to stay at Springdale, which is just next to South Haven. Contrary to what others said about the noise from the choo-choo trains, I find them not very disturbing after all. In addition, the windows in condos are usually very sound proof quality. When I closed my windows tight, I could barely hear a single sound outside the unit. Upp Bukit Timah is indeed a pleasant place to stay in.

There was a topic in your thread which I must comment on.... :notti: hanging clothes out at the balcony. I really think it's unsightly. :furious: And for some condos, they do forbid their owners/tenants to do that. Springdale for sure was one of them. My house maid hung our bed sheet out at the balcony one day, only to have the security guard knocking on our door to instruct us to remove it. hahaha :sport-smiley-003: Hope that your estate will have stringent guidelines as such. Otherwise, it will really spoil the serenity of the place.

Have fun and do post more pics if you can find time...

hi girl!

thanks for dropping by! understand u've been super busy! hope you can catch some rest this wkend =)

how's ur reno so far?

our reno is almost completed. springdale is nice!!! and it's freehold too rite? :)

I'm looking forward to moving in! heh

Are you buying furniture and all too? :)

hanging clothes on the balcony ah: the security told one of my neighbours tht they went to tell the owner and one owner told them it is his house so hes free to do whatever he wants inside. OK LOR... theres nothing we can do abt it also... :(

beware: this is a ranting post-

so BARANG BARANG just called me up 2 days they are supposed to deliver my dining set and sofa to tell me that my dining chairs are out of stock. :furious:

since it's their fault, they are willing to lend me 4 chairs. I've told them i'll find a dining set somewhere else and get them to refund me the whole cost of my dining set.

great, now i got to go shopping again and i thought i was done.

Argh.

8| for this kind of screw ups...
