Not much updates so far, carpentry still in progress. Bottom half has been installed. Really hope my self-designed kitchen will turn out ok. Saw my chandelier up but it's "naked", I will need to dress it up with its crystals once the place has been cleaned up, seems like a daunting task? I heard that it will take at least 3-4 hours to do that... Hubby commented my toyroom will be really bright since I have 3 lamps. Well, I would rather have it really bright than dim, hehe. I chose a really light ice-pink color for this room & had the ceiling painted in the same color as well. Hmm.. but the color for this room & MBR looks similar at night, maybe due to the lighting?

Really love the lamp I got for the MBR entrance, it was a last-min purchase cos I totally forgot that the MBR entrance requires a light too. Kept it uniform so that all lights in MBR are black-colored to match the black partition. Super love the MBR's wall color too, it's a soft dusky powdery pink but I think I can't capture the true color at night with my phone camera. Will need to see it in daytime.

Made 3 super cute purchases for the home recently, even hubby agreed they were cute, hehe.

First up: matching soap bottles for hubby & me so we each can have our own soap in the bathroom

A big Kitty container to store stuff (as usual, I have no idea what yet, but it's cute)

And lastly, the Kitty mailbox (in bright classic red) I ordered arrived from Japan safely. It is to store our daily post!

Hey chiffon, sorry back-track a little. Can share the links for the organizer box, mini rose hanger and cake stand?

I found similar organizer boxes but they are like plastic material which is rather inflexible ( http://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?spm=a220o.1000855.1998025129.2.IIeEOk&id=43656372701&abbucket=_AB-M32_B9&rn=&acm=03054.1003.1.115927&aldid=7MyvDYmu&abtest=_AB-LR32-PR32&scm=1003.1.03054.ITEM_43656372701_115927&pos=2)

TIA! :)

More (pink) stuff that I purchased for our new home. Lots of macarons for decor, hehe.

Sure!

This is the organizer box I got, but it is also in plastic material, but maybe the plastic is thinner?

Mini rose hanger. This shop has a lot of pretty anna-sui-lookalike stuff

Cake stand. It comes in white as original color, but the seller also sells it in pink. The one I got came in a lighter shade of pink than what was pictured, which I'm ok with cos I prefer the softerl shade.

Room doors arrived unpainted. It took the uncle many hours to paint it this nice brilliant glossy white.

Doors for hubby gameroom & my toyroom up. Really loving the white! Clear glass makes the space look brighter too.

Same design for MBR door except it does not have clear glass:

First look at my bar counter & stools purchased from taobao.(Please ignore the still-wrapped lamp with a faulty bulb & wrong window design yet to be fixed.) Hubby & I fixed it up over the weekend. Took us sometime cos it came without instructions.

Bar counter:

Like: Simple design which is exactly what I wanted & can be customized. I customized the height to be 100cm & the length to be 120cm.

DIslike: I chose white, but it came in a strange tone of white leaning towards light purple. Most likely I will need to spray-paint it to the white color I want. Doesn't feel very sturdy & the shelves looks unbalanced. H'ever, I think for its price, I can't really complain cos it will cost much more here.

Bar stools:

Nothing much to dislike about it. Quite a basic stool & adjustable height.

Hi klkang,

All the glass used is clear see-through glass, I think it is the darkness of the room /wall color behind that causes them to look purple /grey? Doors were basic wooden ones provided by the contractor. I only told them the design I want, which is that it must have a 2 x 4 glass panel in the middle. I think most door companies should have it if you are looking for wooden glass doors, eg. Siong doors, Doctor Doors, etc. I saw this design in their catalogue before. H'ever I'm not sure if they can customize the glass color.

Beglas - I know tthat they do pole system wardrobe, but I'm not sure if they do doors as well. I got a quote from them for a very basic system but it seems pricey, so I'm still sourcing around for a pole system wardrobe that is not too ex. I wanted to get the Stolmen from Ikea but found out it was discontinued...
