yes. when u have designed carpentry, u will have lots of brainstorming and discussion.

I also have a lot at first. now I cut down.

Dun want to spent too much on Carpentry. Will do so in the future but not now.

yes. we also feel it that way.

The most, will renovate our place by adding some features maybe 10 yrs down the road...

Hello neighbours-for-a-long-time

Think i will burst my wallet so bad tt I dun even hv $$ to do revamp say 5yrs down the road.. haha!!

Anyway our hse alrdy an EA, even bigger than many condos. Qt hard to find a bigger area unless jumbo/mansionette or private property. Imagine if move to a smaller hse, wonder if we can get used to it next time.

If the estate stays as 'tranquil' as it is now, i can imagine living there for easily 10yrs :dancingqueen:

Hi Jessi,

U can go to Dream Lights, 317 Balestier Road and Lights Zone opp them (owned by same partners). Look for Joevin Neo.. I bought my lights from him.. Me, hubby and my parents walked the whole stretch of Balestier Road and in the end settled all our lights and ceiling fans with him.. Joevin is very nice and went through all the lighting points and lighting considerations with us! The price he quoted us was oso very reasonable.. $1270 for 2 ceiling fans, 7 PLC (germany made), 5 simple 'plastic' lights, 2 UFO lights, 1 dining table lights, 1 penchant light for MBR, 1 milo can, 1 plain light for bomb shelter and 1 door bell (not the electronic kind..) I think I have to thank my mum for squeezing him very dry and got us the best offer! hahaha :dancingqueen:

Ald got alot of cititbank card... not free gift liao...

Jessi, check out Jurong one first...

if have those u like, then u dun have to travel all the way...
