Master Bedroom Bathroom - Work-in-Progress

I am quite paiseh :P about the master bedroom bathroom tiles. I changed my mind twice - once because of mismatch and the other because of miscommunication. What's more, both times, tiles arrived at my house and have to return to Soon Bee Huat's warehouse. My ID warned me NO MORE changes allowed 8|

I also miscalculated how expensive the new tiles are. They are Egyptian tiles and according to my ID, Middle Eastern tiles are really expensive. I always said I did not want a BLACK/DARK bathroom. But I still ended with one because I really love the tiles :wub: Apparently I am the second person in Singapore who bought this particular set of tiles according to Soon Bee Huat and they requested for a picture of the completed bathroom.

Pics cannot convey the true beauty of the tiles. The tiles are not actually black but they got a 'smokey' effect which makes them look ethereal.

Master Bedroom Tiled Wall

The tile wall is up! Looks a bit weird without trimming and old color paint. I am drooling at the thought of my French bed placed in front of it!

Sigh. Reno delayed. Carpentry in my room delayed = parquet varnishing delayed = marble polishing delayed = plastering & painting delayed. Supposed to finish the whole project by this weekend. Unless somehow the carpentry can be miraculously completed by Wednesday & workers doing the varnishing/polishing of parquet/flooring and painting willing to stay till wee hours, completion is out of the way.

Hahaha. Not completed. It is almost an embarrassment to tell pp that it is still being renovated. Should be completed within 2 weeks. But then I made a lot of changes then.

Finally, my reno should be completed by early next week. Even my ID buay tahan it took so long as there are A LOT of changes. In fact, some of the pics of items I bought are not used at all. For bathroom tiles alone, I changed my mind 3 times and had the tiles returned. Think going to start another blog just to show off the completed reno.
