Hmm... The three blocks nearer to Koufu & existing HDB are 435A, 435B & 435C.. Ur fren's if at farthest corner should be 434A, 434B & 434C. Ur fren already received letter from HDB on when collecting keys? I can't wait!

Not full BLACK. only backsplash & drawer compartments of bottom cabinets are BLACK. Those casement doors to bottom cabinet will still be my intended RED. By the way, ur Samsung fridge also this big? (we hoping to get the biggest capacity with 4 ticks model)

Which blk is ur fren staying?

As promised, here are the comments that we had for the 3Ds:- 1) Living Room 2) Dining Room 3) Kitchen 4) Master bedroom

we are not installing any console below the TV. rather, we are erecting a cupboard on the right (nearer to window) to house all the equipment. Idea was proposed by the ID and both HTB & I love this idea. Personally, the wall to wall distance between the TV & the Sofa not very big. with a console & sofa in between, the space for walking may be greatly reduced. Which is why when our ID propose this, i immediately told HTB that I love this design. =P

Bro, mine not purple kitchen actually (not a "purple" person) Told my ID that I am thinking of having RED, BLACK & WHITE for the Kitchen. based on the discussion with ID yesterday, the colour is actually a nice dark red. Just that after he scanned the sample, the computer's rendering can't actually show the actual colour.

After a disappointment for cancelling the meet up last thursday, we finally got to meet up with our ID this evening. Prior to the meet up, he has sent us via email his 1st draft of his proposed 3D designs:- (a) The Living Room (b) The Dining Area © The Kitchen (d) The Master Bedroom will update our comments to the 1st draft of the 3D drawings in the next entry

We finally received the ID's sms that he is back in town! Have arranged to meeting him in Mid Aug to see some 3D designs that he has done up! Excited!~

just realised that i forgot to mentioned that i have also placed order for the Master Bedroom's Bed. Serta's Diamond Suite (From IMM's Serta's Outlet) - but not using the bedframe + bedhead shown in the picture:- Being very worried about the size of my MBR, we can’t decide if a Queen Size bed or a King Size bed is gonna fit in However, the sales person was quick to provide us the following assurance:- We can place a confirmed deposit for a Queen Size bed now so as to lock in the price in case of future cost increase for a Queen Size Upon getting our flat and ID designs, we can then upgrade to a King Size bed and top up the balance to the current promotion price tag for a King Size If the prices of our selected bed (Queen or King) drops, our final price shall be based on the lower price for the respective bed size All promotion freebies we are entitled now, will still be ours to keep even though the delivery of the bed is only taking place this year end or beginning of next year In addition to the bed, we have also went back to the same outlet to purchase the Bedhead + Bedframe (forgot to take a pic of it at the shop). The same arrangement (place order for Queen, but possible top up to a King when we get our flat) was made. happy! the most important furniture in the HOME has been settled!

Hi MeiLinChCh, as we have only just signed up with the ID with nothing done yet (as he is currently out of town), I'd prefer to not disclose who he is first. Once I'm satisfied with his service/work done for us, I'll disclose the name of the firm. By the way, i already know who u r as I'm also in FR's FB page!

haha, both me & HTB love big refrigerators! anything smaller, we really won't be considering. yah, will surely check our the reviews before swiping that credit card. (have actually saw both models (maybe not that big in size) being used by some of the owners in t-Blog)

by the way Hafizzah, i love reading your blog with all those hand written notes!

Hi Hafiizah, thanks for the welcome! Need to check with the ID on the size & colour of the refrigerator that can be bought for the Home. actually for the samsung fridge i've posted, i am actually considering the stainless steel version instead of the snow white version. prefer appliances to be in 'greyish'. however, thanks for your advise. will definitely check with our ID on this.

went over to IMM today and were looking at refrigerators. the HTB has shortlisted these 2 models but we couldn't decide (at this moment) which model we should buy since both are of the same cost from Best Denki... Samsung (Top Freezer); RT72KASE Total Capacity (Gross,ℓ): 650ℓ Net Weight (kg): 95kg Dimensions: 840mm(W) x 1788mm(H) x 726mm(D) Panasonic (Two Door); NR-BY601XS Total Capacity (Gross,ℓ): 602ℓ Net Weight (kg): 86kg Dimensions: 775mm(W) x 1846mm(H) x 745mm(D)

Hi chrissyyeo, i love your kitchen sink.. able to tell me how much it costs (is it as per shown in photo - S$399) & from where? Thanks in advance!

Yeah man! The HTB was so happy when he realized Jalan Kayu was just nearby...

Thanks! =) love my sofa too..

No hacking will be done (minimise the spending on renovations). Only planned to do these:- False Ceiling to the entire house (except Kitchen, Toilets, Service Yard & Household Shelter) Ceiling Fans to all three Bedrooms + Living Area Wardrobe to Master Bedroom and 1 Common Bedroom Kitchen Cabinets Glass Door to Kitchen Feature Wall @ Dining Area (to hide the Household Shelter) Windows @ Service Yard Basically we are just putting more empahsis in the Master Bedroom & Kitchen..

Thanks Newnyew!

Have actually bought 2 pieces of furniture for our dwelling (a) Our Living Room Sofa (from Lorenzo) (b) Our Dining Set (also from Lorenzo)

Having spent so much time reading the t-Blog of so many home owners & gaining the precious pointers with regards to the renovations, its time for us to pay it forward. the HTB (Hubby-to-Be) was actually the one who wanted me to start this blog to records the "footprints" of our home renovations, so here are some background information:- Got our very own flat @ Fernvale Residences via August 2010's Sales of Balance Flats. Ever since we gotten our floor plan from HDB, the HTB has been scouring the internet for renovation ideas and renovation ID/Contractors. After looking at so many of the blogs here and gotten a few contacts, we zoomed down to the shortlisted one & arrange for the 1st meet up on 20 June 2011. We have just confirmed the ID on 22 July 2011 (4th meet up) As the ID will not be in town next week, he would only be able to show us his 3D designs in 2 weeks time. Here's my floor plan:
