Nowadays renovation is easier, create whatsApp group, and ID will keep you updated of all job done in the group. Pretty happy with this arrangement :lol:

I screenshot the design from one of the picture i came across in Facebook.

Then get a shop to customise wall frame for me using the design i provided. Surprisingly, they are able to make it 100% identical using the picture i provided. woow... :jawdrop:

Cost of that picture : $192 :paint:

Bought roller blinds for the whole house at this curtain shop in Clementi (Kian Seng Fashion). Didn't know they have a website, just google it and yeah...http://www.clementikianseng.com/  Ok really highly recommended them.

Didn't get curtain this time because we heard that maintaining roller blinds is much easier than curtains...Installation of roller blinds on the 21st Dec, will post up the pictures of the roller blinds later.

Saw alot of good reviews on this curtain shop in renotalk too. oh ya! I remembered we bought curtain from this curtain shop (see the hyperlink beside) 8 years ago....time really flies
