Oh cool, so the little bed is like a deco item ?

Little bed was just for photography purpose - a prop for photo-shooting baby, my husband was doing freelance photographer ...

The nick name was special ... can keep :rolleyes:

Still left the curtain to install today and IKEA furniture on Monday.

Yesterday finally installed the glass backing for my kitchen cabinet, will upload the photograph of the kitchen cabinet soon.

Would have specify the length of the kitchen cabinet so that can buy IKEA or BLUM accessories that can fit exactly, so next time know what to do. How yours? Did you buy from IKEA or BLUM accessories for your kitchen cabinet drawer?

The BLUM accessories come from carpenter, we didn't specify the length etc. We let him to decide the individual length and we gave him the overall length we want.

Looking forward to see your pics ~ When u target to move in ?

Post renovation picture for Common Bathroom

Just updated my blog with pictures taken for Common Bathroom, more pictures can refer to this link.

The design of common bathroom was similar to master bathroom, we choose different tiles for the two bathroom - total have three different kinds of tiles for each bathroom. The mirror was bought from Ikea, I like the wood color which can match the tiles design.

Post renovation picture for Kitchen

More pictures can refer to this link.

We liked the open concept kitchen, spent quite a lot of efforts and time to design the kitchen layout. We hacked the original walls and storeroom to create this open concept kitchen, it was a huge change. We asked the carpenter to build a counter-bar ~ it will be the place to hang out with friends. The lightings were ordered online ~ quite like the effect. The kitchen cabinet top was made from kompactop – quite different from normal solid surface and we liked the wooden texture. We did quite heavy cook especially during my confinement period and the kompactop still maintained well. We also put a chalkboard wallpaper beside the counter-bar.

Thanks whitehousey, how's your reno? Looking forward to see your final result ...

Hi eekenji, are your window grilles the normal silver aluminium ones or white powder coated?

I'm trying to achieve the white/wood look too but white powder coated ones are much more expensive =(

thanks!
