Dining Lights

Our most expensive light in today's purchase..

Chandelier dining lights..

The one we bought has a black frame instead of a white one..

This picture is to show it with the LED lights switched on..

With warm lights and LED together

Entertainment Room Light

We haven bought this yet.. Still KIV-ing.. We wanted a more abstract, modern look for the light in the entertainment room..

This one looks whacky but doesn't seem to have the modern look we wanted..

Online Shopping

We bought some items online via gmarket and ebay.. Most are local sellers but one of them (the biggest purchase) is an overseas seller.. Crossing fingers that we'll get our items safe and sound, without any issues..

Rainshower

5519127828_9027f83f47.jpg

Costs an average of SGD400 in local shops for a square rain shower.. Saw this on ebay for about SGD250 (after shipping)..

Item description seems to be pretty good quality..

Seller seems to be of good rating.. So we took the chance..

Good news is that the seller is very responsive, we emailed him after purchasing and he was fast to response.. *Cross fingers*

Living Room Clock

5519122028_4c4bd9028f.jpg

Johnson says this is perfect for our living room.. We have the same sentiments.. Delivery next week! =D

Toothpaste Dispenser

5519122046_dd66b9e467.jpg

The wife found this online and decided to get it for the MBR bathroom..

No more toothpaste lying around and no more "blur" aftermath in the morning to clear..

Hangers

5518531741_1104b0cd9e.jpg

Yes, you are right... The wife even researches on hangers.. =p

Velvet anti-slip super slim hangers..

Got a sample from the seller and did some testing (on jeans with some hard swinging and jerking motions) and it passed..

Bulk ordered with a few of our future neighbours.. =)

hi nice hangers. Where do you get them?? could you give me the contacts email to hepenus@yahoo.com.sg. thanks

Ceiling Works

We headed to our unit today (again) to check out the ceiling works.. Being the first day, we were expecting to see metal support still up in the ceiling waiting to be plastered.. We wanted to capture that as part of our reno process blogging..

But then.. We were in for a surprise when we arrived! Not sure if it's the common pace for all ceiling works but we were really shocked to see the false ceiling for the living room, entertainment room and the false wall @ kitchen entrance completed!

In the dark, we used our handphone light to illuminate whatever we could and took pictures.. Haha..

Please pardon the not-so-well-lit photos..

Living Room False Ceiling

"Hole" for our aircon unit..

Kitchen False Wall

5526349602_9b4a3325a2.jpg

Kitchen False Ceiling

5526346452_5ebd9aa264.jpg

We found the metal supports we wanted to take in the false ceiling of the kitchen entrance.. That area had to be boxed up cos of a weird beam sticking out.. (u can see a little of it on the right side of the picture..)

MBR

Not started yet...

Items placed at the side ready for tomorrow.. Some weird markings that only the contractors will understand on the wall..

Shifted lighting point in MBR.. Hidden in the ceiling, no casing.. =)
