we still couldnt decide what kinda dining table we wan. and 1 day the dining room might be converted to a proper room hence we got a high dining table from Ikea to be flexible for some space planning in future and a place to have our meals for now.

in the see thru dining room for now (Orange Room!)

in the kitchen as an island (Mock Up!) a bit cram though...

More stuff from Ikea...well well as most of u shd know, budget and diy are our middle names, hence we got our home office tables from Ikea as well.

our loot on Sat

we refused to pay $55 for delivery charge especially when we lived so near Ikea Tampines (like 10mins walk?) and we dun wanna wait 3 days so we pushed our loot to e carpark and aimed at those customers w Big lorry and asked if they can 'dong pang' us with a minimal fee from us. and lucky us! one very nice uncle agreed! yeah!

and so hubby spent e rest of Sat fixing these

Galant Office tables

yes, we need space for 3 Pcs, 1 iMac, 1 notebook, 1 32" TV and 1 mac book pro coming up!

roughly how it'll look like when shelves are up.. ( a bit different for table layout)

any lobang for cheap n pretty office chairs? preferably below $100 with high back rest

your hubby really like to DIY....my dad and hubby also sama sama....

Like your study table. Maybe will get one as well.

I went to Ikea on Saturday to look for bookshelves. Unfortunately the model that I want doesn't come with matching glass door. There are 2 suspended bookshelves in your 3D model. Do you intend to get bookshelves as well in your study. Besta is not bad. Currently having Billy and not very sturdy.

the Galant tables do look sturdy now but dunno how long it'll last. we jus need 5 years! haha! it is said to have 10 years warranty though but well......

That is one of the my consideration for choosing the flat ; not only ikea but also Giant. Can get groceries everyday instead of stocking for a week.

Hi ashes,

After reading your blog, realised that we might be doing something similar to what you have done for your house, especially your bedroom. How much did Uncle Ah Soon charge you for your walk in wardrobe and how big is it in term of its length? Thanks

the WIW is from my ex owner. Uncle only do up the black feature wall w e 2 white doors, he quote me $1600

and it is full height from the floor up to the ceiling, dunno how many feet hee~

Ohhh...I thought he built it for you then 1600 is really a good price. I am thinking of building a walk in wardrobe with a feature wall in front of the wardrobe and my bed behind the feature wall.

When you get the quotation from ah soon, what do you need to send to him? Does he need to enter the house to take a look before giving u the quotation?

we get him to come down n look at the exact place and jus give him the floor plan while he writes down our requests.

better this way as he can directly tell us what can and cannot be done or what need or need not be done. he was not tat busy busy then lah (but still busy!), so maybe he dun hv e time to go on site now.....

u can fax him ur floor plan and tok to him abt ur requests over the phone also, jus not tat accurate on the quotation lor.

hope this helps!

ashes, seems like u have lotsa shopping done over the weeks! quite like the island concept actually if not for the space constraint nice romantic dinner can happen there too!
