Thanks mrmerry for suggesting that! I finally tried it out and did a random google to find out how to copy and paste the link on renotalk. Coincidentally, the search returned a renotalk t-blog that you had commented on to share how to do so. Hahaha

Shall test if it works with one picture.

Am too lazy to go "revive" the other photos that were on photobucket

LOVELY! Did the wood slats for the balcony cost heaps? We are thinking of leveling our balcony so that it is flush with the living...did approval from HDB take long?

Summer,

WoooHoo! Congrats on being your upcoming feature in Home & Deco. I will definitely be grabbing a copy. So happy for you!

Your house is looking really chio in that professional photo. Nice Nice.

hahah.... recently I've adopted a male guinea pig from SPCA and then bought a female one a couple of weeks later. My gals named them - Milo & Horlicks. Lol.

Thank you thank you I think it's coming out in August, not sure if it really is though!

Good job on adopting! But you're going to have a big headache soon once they start breeding. It's going to be a mess. Should always get the same gender unless they're sterilised.

Wow ur place looks really homely haha.. Love love love the wood tiles and wood decking for the balcony!

I super like the balcony area too. I love all things made of wood, gives a very... cosy feeling

It's a pouf! Something like a stool, but not as hard or structured as one. The shop had many many colors, and we bought 2. They totally help to add a pop of color in the house

Our outdoor decking costs about 4k. We didn't level our balcony. Our ID suggested we sort of "extend" our balcony into the living room, which explains why it looks like the wooden decking is levelled (there's still a slight drop down) Our EM's balcony is a little different from most EMs that have a recessed rectangular balcony, so the rain can really get in if it's heavy. Levelling it full might cause flooding if it's extreme weather

The one that took forever to approve was the hacking of the bedroom wall on the 2nd floor, directly above the stairs.

Pleas try and find time to upload the rest of the old photos. Maybe onto an album online, as your house looks very beautiful!!

I'm really liking the pouf and also the rest of the knitted baskets from make room. Thanks for sharing!

Which shop did the pouf come from?

Nope. Our permit for hacking that wall was denied. And then our ID advised us to engage a PE. But we went with renotalkers' advice and called the HDB officer ourselves. The whole episode dragged for 2 weeks before we finally got the hacking approved
