Hi all, just got a unit at level two with rubbish chute within the unit. Got notification that fumigation is going to be done, am rather worried that all sort of pests will run into the unit. Other than sealing the rubbish chute with masking tape, is there anything else which I should do?

Finally the finishing touches on the glass feature wall is completed. It was a tough job getting the big piece of glass to slide into its rightful place. The glass is actually a glass table top for a dining table from ikea. I love the floral design on the glass and has been bugging my ID to find a way to mount the glass on my wall. Finally, we came up with the idea of creating a frame surrounded by custom made storage to slot and hold the glass. The wall behind the wall was painted hot pink and the cabinets were covered with white glossy laminate. This pink and white colour combination follows the colour combination used for my kitchen. very happy with the final look of my cosy corner =)

Just like to share some more photos of the mbr ikea lamp and sony sframe digital photoframe with swarovski elements =) build in wardrode with metallic laminate. read from a home deco magazine, metallic laminate is the in trend now. silver colour laminate reflects and changes colour according to the colour of your wall and colours of the lights, very interesting =)

wow, you have many creative ideas for reno. very eager to see the progress. will be following your tblog closely

Haha, thanks iamnorah. I love pink & the pink laminate Thanks piknik. Any guy staying here need to love pink but haven’t met such a cool guy yet. The dryer uses gas and it costs about S$800, including installation.

Hi restlessfeet, I've pm'ed you

Visited Molecule many many times but found their stuff too expensive. Finally got this cute little fish kitchen towel holder from there. It has a heavy metal base hence it is really stable even when you are tearing off a piece of the kitchen towel. Washer and dryer snuggly next to each other

Left a space to fit a bar stool so one can have a break as they cook. Useful dish drainer. It is wide enough to keep my big plates vertically in place and the plates do not have to lean on each other for support. All soft closing casement doors with no handles See the pink 3D laminate? My ID almost fell off his chair when we told him we like that. Both the colour and pattern are too unusual for use in the kitchen. After some debates & discussion, settle on pink and white glossy combination, pink doors with white body on one side, white doors with pink body on the other. Both me and my ID are happy with the final look

My kitchen is my joy and pride. As mentioned in the previous post, due to lack of storeroom hence I am facing a storage war. It happened to be GSS After my first appointment so I was happily shopping for the new house. As a result, before I select my ID, I have already brought the major pieces of furniture and electrical appliances. I think my ID is a very brave soul to take up the challenge of doing a space planning layout to squeeze in all my purchases within a small small flat without compromising the look and feel of the place. A look at his work: Full height cabinet to use as a broom cabinet for storing all the pails, buckets, broom, mope and cleaning stuffs. That will keep all the clutter out of sight and out of mind. Plenty of drawers and overhead cabinets, happiness More overhead storage A big fridge for storing food and drinks for use during gathering Bosch washer and Rinnai dryer from SP gas side by side. Never like the idea of stacking them. Countertop over the laundry for folding clothes. There is a pole above to hang the clothes once I have placed them on a cloth hanger ... no crumpled clothes Washing dishes, in my opinion is the worst household chore. Thus the sink is infront of the window so the unfortunate person can kapoh on what is happening downstairs or enjoy the greenery outside while doing the dishes. My ID has planned the layout to the last cm, with minimum allowance. The delivery men was tested on their skills to place the fridge/washer and dryer into their rightful place. Luckily, everything is a nice fit like glove on a hand.

I did not like any of the iron wrought gate provided by my ID so I was searching for gate design online when I chanced upon this website (http://www.panggiap88.com.sg/wi_doorgates.html). Show my ID the gate which I like and he is very sweet to go check out the supplier for me. Such gates are custom made, meaning they follow your design and weld on each part (the leaves and roses) one by one. As such, the gate is priced at a whooping S$800. My ID helped to source for another supplier who can do it at a lower cost and found one who is able to do it at S$750. Still expensive but we love the design too much to give it up Haha, I think so. Will be inviting friends over for CNY, already buying stuff for the new year! Thank you! This block has 21 levels but I am staying at the rabbit hole aka level 2, hehe! The utility room is added during upgrading (paid for by the seller). It is a tight fit for using as a bedroom so the seller used it as dining area. However, I rather have my dining table in the living room as that I can eat and watch TV at the same time. Thus, I turn that into a U-shaped kitchen with plenty of cabinets. As you can see from my floor plan, there is no storeroom so having proper storage place without compromising the aesthetic look is a great challenge. That is the challenge (first of many) which my ID has to overcome
