feimei 0 Report post Posted November 18, 2009 Yea I also had a hard time choosing colors last time...esp the one for my bedroom... At first wanted to use cotton white for most of the walls in my hse but then the painter commented that the color is too light cos I removed some skirting from the wall previously, so need a thicker paint to cover up the damages done to the wall. So in the end I chose Lilac White also but the painter mixed with white...cos if just use lilac white he commented will be quite yellowish and my husband wants a more "whitish" effect... I think it's not a good idea to get friends to do...cos usually will have dispute...like if u not happy wif their job u also have to accept and cannot complain cos it's free ma...so depends on whether the friends are really skilful or not...maybe go and take a look at their other painting job and then decide? Wowww...we oso decided on Lilac White leh....hahahaha...we got same 'taste' yeah~~~hubby dun wan too white leh (opp ur hubby's idea)....soo we think Lilac white is the best of all....but dan i went to check out paint price these few days (on mandatary leave this wk ) went to chk out shopping ctr, neighbourhood, industrial area....surprisingly....neighbourhood price is the highest worrr.... O.O think we will buy fr industrial area...the uncle oso very frenxly... did ur painter do undercoat? hubby want to do undercoat before put on the paint color we want and the paint shop uncle recommanded to buy a 20L paint for undercoat....more dan enuff for 4rooms lol....even after painting....no need go with another color oso can worrr but i think it will be too White lol....

feimei 0 Report post Posted November 18, 2009 :rolleyes: so many colors to choose frm? :unsure: even white lol.. it's true that we can always repaint agin but after we settle down we got to move thing away and so on .. it gonna be another headache. Oh i dun think i am asking my friends to help. Srsly i dun think they can find the time. they just wanna "play" None of them actually paint b4 so .. haha i can imagine the workmanship. I guess i would place it in the professional 's hands. By the way I also bought my tv during during audio house sale . haha can't miss the bargain too... :D yalor...alot of color....c till u blur....really can't decide on...becos u need to match with ur theme or match with ur furniture....a few factors to consider lol and again if u belief in FS....dan hv to c which color not into u lol or ur hubby not into that color....hahahahaa....'shang niao jing' ahhh....

butterfingerzz 0 Report post Posted November 18, 2009 hey, can i ask u something.. m trying to figure out if i need a 7kg or 8kg washer.. think the biggest thing i'll put in is the duvet cover, bed sheets, etc.. using blinds mostly so no curtains to throw in.. was thinking 7kg is enuff but hubby was aiming for 8kg.. how ah? oh n copied this from another forum... Solid Surface Because solid surface counters are just what they're called, solid, any scratches can be sanded out. The countertops are custom-made to your specifications by companies such as Avonite, Corian, and Swanstone. Pros: comes in a rainbow of colors and patterns; seamless; stain resistant. Cons vulnerable to hot pans and stains which can damage the surface; can be moderately expensive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
