yah...the brickwall is DIY.

I will definitely share how i save the 1.5k to 2k by not buying craft stone. Alan allowed me to waste time DIY-ing it. Do note DIY tend to have the raw feel and craftstone will look neater.

cost vs raw look.

I would like to learn how to DIY brick wall too

found these grey switches along geylang road. I walked the whole of geylang rd, balestier and jalan besar more than 3 times each and I find that I will only go to Geylang and buy. The lights and bathroom items there are definitely cheaper. If they dont have it, just give them the model or picture you want and they can easily get it for u. Anyway, all 3 roads also still cut your throat. Best is to buy lights from JB.

Its not cheap though. Alan has it too and its cheaper.

Sorry for showing all these pictures first. They were taken before the resale flat was handed over. There were many inspirations from

magazines and online websites. Lazy to transfer those pics from another com. If you google it, there are just so many pics and ideas u can get.

think its 2.3k. 2.1m-ish Out of budget for me but if you like, do get it because its also a day bed. Save u some money from buying extra mattresses for stay over guests. I did buy a sofa that was almost similar.
