Hi hi, thanks for looking at our eclectic little house. It is a mix of themes as we like different stuff so long it's colorful! And we like vintage obviously :)

The Iona fan was one of the last 2 units at Mustafa and possibly, Singapore. For the clock, which one are you referring to? The one in the living room?

Nice~ I am looking at Iona or similiar brands in this style too. But will slowly look around. Yes the clock in the living room. :good:

Hey hey, bought the living room double-face black clock from TB too:

韩国进口挂钟/双面挂钟/客厅双面钟/INTERNI钟表(多色可选)

It still works well after 5 months though it was a pain to install/ mount onto wall earlier!

Floor Tiling should be starting soon, the tile cutter have been brought over, presume will be starting soon :)

See how the non-drilled part of the walls on the left, those electricity wire runs in the walls, we pulled the data point from originally at the corner of the wall to the corridor so as to have our router around the whole house. :good:

Day 27

Half Brick wall

1455887_10152383794674546_1048744534_n.j

Hi Sharon, I'm not sure is that the brick wall effect you want but looks like there is not enough gap in between bricks for the grouting to be applied.

You can check out this topic >> http://www.renotalk.com/forum/topic/59857-our-new-place/page-2 . The owner has to ask their tiler to redo the wall again.

It could be due to the way the photo was taken or due to the lens used but there is enuff gap in between the bricks for grouting. No worries, my hubby check and there was about 1cm to 1.5cm gap in between. Thanks for bringing it up to us. I called hubby to double confirm whether there is space in between. :) Not sure if the gap is wide enough though.
