Mickey M

Bed la, saw a few acceptable ones in sg but the dimensions are not very gd' for the space I have. Comtemplating to make a headboard. Mind 'beaming' with ideas! But wonder whether carpenters can make something like what we have in mind. Actually, I think they can, but the cost might be too exp also. Haven't talk to ID abt this yet. Talking abt beds, I think we went shopping for beds for quite a while. But really hard to find something we want. Verdict is most of the typical shops are selling the same types of beds. We saw something we like online but it cost a staggering USD $15000! Sian. Hai. No way. Sian. Hai. Cannot. Ha. Reno resumed last wk. Finalised most of the stuff that were pending - eg. vanity top design, feature wall. Pd doors are also up. Just to share, my mickey head console is up minus the epoxy black gitter paint. Hee.

I have not heard of this building before. Any shop names to provide?

Hi Annjoy, U are missing from renotalk also?

It is common when things are all not up. Do keep it neat and clean. I think pinkydot has a nice kitchen, very spacious, clean and nice.

I just replied ur pm. . If u need more info, let me know. I believe Mr Yeak should be able to advise u also.

Hi Joseeng, Thanks for the clarification. Yes, I was referring to Goobii's kitchen. Your kitchen looks neat at this point of time, gantan88.

Whether floating or not doesn't really matter. In your case, I find the kitchen messy but humane. The clean look is missing. May I know why u have something on top of your hood? Is it a display item? A frame? Since yours is a modern kitchen concept, I think u should have a pull out system for your sauce bottles. Placing them in open space is messy. A modern kitchen needs to elude a clean, tidy and spacious feeling. The chimmey portion of the hood is suppose to give a illusion of high ceiling. But having the hoob exactly below the beam reduces the illusion. I would have swap the position of the hood with the sink.

Hi Gantan88, Frankly, I feel that the actual kitchen is not too much different from the 3D drawing. Other than the door issue, I think it is quite similar. Other differences which I spot are probably minimal and probably your personal choices: 1. Color tone of the tiles 2. Color of laminates 3. Color of work top 4. Tap, hood, frosted glass, etc, not installed. In any case, if you are not happy with it, just tell them u are not going to pay the remaining 5% after they are done with all the rest of the work. If not, just tell them to redo.

Hi SGK, That is always the case. No wonder they always say must have some buffer of 10 to 20% of budget for such unexpected situation..

Kopi, don't stress. Things will end up well. Enjoy ur Taiwan trip.

Hi, I think u can reuse the lamp, maybe give it a coat of paint to 'refreshen' it.

Hi Cat, How was ur break? Hope u had a gd rest. Flying already?

Not so soon. Earliest should be May or June.

Hi Grace, Congrats! Enjoy ur stay at RT.

I hang around in the wedding photography ,fujifilm and cannon subforums. So how was ang bao collection for Jaden? Hee. Okie okie, collect it from u soon. Haha.

Simon, same nick at clubsnap? I haven't really log in for quite some time over there. . Which subforum u hanging ard? Hee. Same as u, 22 more working days before month end.

Rondy, Really la. Scare la. I buy insurance from u can or not. Cannot fit, the insurer covers my cost. Hahaha. Hee.

Hmm, do u all think a 190cm king size mattress can fit a 188cm bed frame?.. Hmm..

Any shops or websites to recommend? Thanks.

Hi Rondy, Work is taking up a lot of time lately. Haha.

Angel, yummy!

Hi Velv, All the best!

Hihi, Any feedback for renotalk? Appreciate your input.

So any feedback from anyone?

Hi Ngunadi, Wifey has a degree in architect, so I believe she should be pretty gd with reno, interior design and space planning. . So u shouldn't be facing too many problems.
