  • I hope it isn't tiles, otherwise I'll have to stick some decals or something. Dun think I have the money to hack. Already thinking of doing decal for my bedroom door and also on the living room wall.

  • Hi, I am very inspired to buy things from TB after reading and seeing your purchases. Did you buy directly or use service like 65daigou?

    Some buy directly, or simply, if you are buying a lot, it is better to buy directly and use a forwarder to consolidate all in forwarder's China warehouse. Once ready, then ship all to Singapore. I rem

Hi Bernicelogy,

Sorry, don't quite understand..Which kitty item and commercial tiles are you referring to?

The tiles you used? The hello kitty link for household items. Thank you...

Hi Bernicelogy,

The tile we are using is not from taobao. We got it directly from Hafary. It is an italian tile under their Cemento series.

As for Kitty, I sourced from different countries, not from taobao. So if you can let me know which item in particular, I can check if I still have the link for it.

We decided on an open concept wardrobe so the place feels airier. Loving it so far :)

Hehe.. since hubby left most of the home planning to me, after being given the go-ahead, I went crazy online shopping!

These are my Taobao purchases. I classified them as “essential” & “décor” stuff. I was actually pretty amazed that I could find a bar counter that looked exactly like the one in my inspiration pic above, hope the actual item turns out ok.

Essential stuff: furniture

Essential stuff: lighting for the whole house

Essential stuff: bathroom fittings

Lazy Wed afternoon… hehe. Got a few enquiries on our doors, so I thot I will just make a mini post on them.

In order for our playrooms to look more spacious, we decided to go for wood doors with glass that will let light through.

As for MBR, we opted for the same design but without glass.

So by searching online for door pics, I came across the catalogue of Siong Doors. On the 1st page, SD14 is our MBR door & SD08 our playroom door designs.

http://x2.sdimgs.com/sd_static/a/213461/portoflio-01-door.jpg

Told my friend the designs I want, so he helped me order them from his contractor.

As I got to know from him, these are generic designs so all door companies should have them. If you are interested, you can show your ID /contractor the door design, they should be able to order them for you too.

Next, since we picked the 2 x 4 squares design for 3 doors in our home, we decided to go for the same for the remaining doors – bathrooms & kitchen.

Headed down to PD Doors showroom in Balestier & picked out the doors on the spot. Note that you pick put the design you want, specify the color & materials so they can give you a quote.

Then they will need to arrange an appointment for you so they can go to your place to take actual door measurements.

PD Door catalogue, pg 6, design K is the one we picked. We standardize all the frames to white & the glass to frost-laminate for both baths & clear glass for kitchen:

Hope you find your dream doors! Happy door-shopping!!
