Toilet Bidet

Rating: 5/5

Toilet Rain Shower Set

Rating: 5/5

take the simple beauty of nature back home with this rain shower set. turn it on, close your eyes, and you will feel like... it's raining.

THE FOLLOWING IS AN ADVERTISEMENT (serious, not kidding!)

while sitting on the toilet bowl, have you ever looked around for a place to put your handphone? while sitting on the toilet bowl, have you ever wished you have a place to temporarily put your magazine or book. while sitting on the toilet bowl, have you ever wished you have something like this to put your things above your toilet roll? LOOK NO FURTHER! this toilet roll holder comes with a wooden plank, perfect to hold your little items while doing your big business.

we are letting go of this toilet paper holder because it didn't fit into our style in the end! if you are going for an industrial look, it is highly recommended!

For a set of 2 (brand new!),

Price we bought it at: S$28.63 (excluding shipping fee from Taobao)

Price we are letting go at: S$25 (WOW!) (we will absorb the shipping fee!)

let's talk about… CHAIRS!

Coloured Stools

Rating: 4/5 (if you look closer, the wood is not perfect. BUT it is still cheaper than singapore, still recommend )

Preparing for your upcoming house warming? for your birthday party? for your next baby shower? Then, this is exactly what you might be looking for! STOOLS! BUT wait! not just any ordinary stool. it is a stackable, coloured stool! save space by stacking them up and say goodbye to boring stools by choosing your own favourite colours!

Eames Dining (Anywhere, actually) Chairs

Rating: 6/5 (YES! love the quality of it!)

Going scandinavian on a budget? Go for these chairs! Comes in a variety of colours and easy to fix! As easy as A-B-C (for the hubby, not me)! Each chair sold separately.

Kitchen Breakfast Bar Stools

Rating: 5/5

Are you looking for a high stool? This simple, friendly, multi-purpose high stool is your next best friend! You can sit on it at your bar counter, stand on it to reach for things, put things on it as a 'side table'… whatever you can think of, it can do for you! Comes in two different heights!

ikea! SKOGSVÅG - its' a lucky find, i dun think they put it up on display and we just walked around the mirror section seeing all the others which were coloured, and then we saw it lying on top of a stack of mirrors =) we saw it at the Alexandra branch but here's the link to the item

let's talk about… Tables and Tv console!

Bedside Table / Mini Coffee Table

Rating: 5/5

This three-legged creature could just very well be your next best friend! Let it accompany you while you are relaxing on your sofa by holding your glass of wine. Let it accompany you while you are sleeping on your bed by holding your handphone or other accessories. Let it accompany you today!

Coffee Table

Rating: 4.5/5 (not bad, but somehow i felt that something about the wood grains is not very nice. maybe it's heng/suay)

Here we go ROUND the mulberry bush coffee table, here we go ROUND the coffee table, here we go ROUND the coffee table, early in the morning! Stop going round the bush, grab this coffee table today!

You might even consider pairing this up with the product above. Each sold separately.

TV Console

Rating: 4/5 (looks v complicated to assemble, we got our carpenter to do it for us. if you look closely, a very small part of the laminate was popping up. there are no holes for TV wires - have to drill/cut ourselves. no soft closing. BUT still super love its design!)

Unite your love for the TV with this simple yet elegant centrepiece. So elegant that the pure beauty of this TV console* might very well steal your attention away from the TV!
