Gong Xi Fa Cai! Ang bao come come! We wished we had something to update, but we didn't add new things to our house.

After a year, your house looks as good as ever

So hilarious... I wish I am a collector, but I don't know how to maintain the toys from turning yellow other than keeping them in the boxes or plastic bags.

How come? The lift so small? I thought my thick dunlop mattress cannot go into the lift, but surprisingly, the mattress can fit into the lift. -

This is my first time buying a proper bed. I also thought all bedsheets can fit in all kinds of mattresses. So I never consider the mattress height before I purchase the bed. I thought 17" bedsheet fittings is easy to find, but it took me some time to find suitable bed fittings, and it is not cheap at all. Last time I slept in Ikea sofa bed, and I bought a lot of bedsheets from NTUC. Cheap and good, about $20+, can change anytime I want. When there is sales, I will buy a lot to keep. Now I want to buy new bedsheets I have to think twice. -
I got bad experience with my aircon installer too. I think all aircon installers are the same kind. My aircon installer came to do our aircon, but forgot to bring the board to cover the wall. He said he will bring the board the next day, so we agreed. Who knows what.... that very night rain very heavily. When the aircon man went to install the board the next morning, he didn't call us to say our room was flooded. He only know how to call me when he can't open the door because our door lock is old and rusty, so he don't know the "tactic" to open the door. He should at least have the courtesy to call me back, and tell me the room is flooded. He installed his board and left the place. We went to the house after work and found our room flooded with water. We end up cleaning the mess. It was his fault for not bringing the board to cover the hole, otherwise the rain won't come in the house.

The Nest

You have good design sense, very nice. If you give me that two bottles, they are not enough to put my toiletries. If you open my "medicine box", you will see how many things I have put inside - medicines, cotton, sanitary, facials, mouthwash, etc. Is it expensive to custom-made that piece of mirror? -
I think I need a robot cleaner too. I don't have time for housework, so having a "helper" at home to vacuum my house will be terrific.

Do take special note when buying bedsheets. Most brands do state how much thickness their bed fittings can fit your mattress. The highest I saw is 17", about 42cm. 16" is up to 40cm. Major brands do carry up to 14" bed fittings and below, so you can buy your bedsheets at ease. As for my mattress, it is 16-17" thickness, so I need to find brands like King Koil etc. My mattress can't fit Aussino bedsheets. The thickest they offer is 15". -

A few suggestions: 1) You can do a kitchen island for your dining area since the area is big, kitchen island allows you to have more storage space and provide a grand look. Since you emphasis on your TV feature wall, the more you should emphasis on the dining area to match the look. Having a dining table is fine, but the feeling and look are too plain. 2) You can do a swing-out glass door for your MBR toilet, instead of swinging inward since the new hollow wall does not have new wardrobe/cabinet, this allows you to do a swing-out door to save space for your MBR toilet. You then can place the basin in the MBR toilet instead of placing it outside the toilet. Then you can focus on longer or wider built-in wardrobe. You will never know when you need more space for clothes 3) Ideally, it doesn't look nice to change the bedroom door entrance facing the dining area. I prefer the door entrance to remain where it is, so your guests cannot look into the bedroom while dining in the dining area. -
Your house still need chemical washing? I don't think you can move in this Friday either.

When I see the topic title, I thought I was expecting to see a full white house.

Why don't consider paint the beams with darker tones? At least there is a color contrast. Otherwise it looks a bit boring
-
I like the wood-alike tiles too.

Ching is hinting you want to know new friend or not. The main focus is new friend

I bought my lights from Pantech. So far so good. Need to find the sales lady Pamela. She is easier to talk to, and gives discounts. The brother is more stingy

Oh I see, it's a pair. Where is the blue snowboard binding for the blue boots?

What is the shoe on the most right use for?

Wow, you have more clothes than me

This is special. I like the design. This tile has texture right? I hope this side is not for cooking?

I like the design of this book shelf. I wanted to create a "tree" effect in my living room, but have not thought of this as I was thinking of buying a big tree wall sticker to stick on my living room wall. Now I see this, I feel that this is very special, but it will look better if you have a big piece of wall spare to be creative.

I have never agree with albert (you) before, but you are so so right today. I know what you mean, the design looks like tearing down the old cabinet, and rebuild a new cabinet with different design. Even the sink and the hob are in same position as the old design. Nothing fancy, no WOW effect. It is very easy to design a house using all whites. Nothing special, nothing creative. Maybe he didn't pay a premium, especially on the carpentry, because it looks like normal PVC white laminates to me.

Serangoon North Renovation By Defong Interior Design

Hi Elise. Don't worry about the waterproofing in the toilets. HDB is very particular with waterproofing. I doubt Defong will dare to risk their license to be revoked. They won't dare to cut materials for the toilets. So not to worry about that. If your contractor promises that there will not be any scratches on your flooring, make sure you check the flooring before he hands over the flat to you. BTW, look at your quotation. You have paid for corrugated board, so why that big area not covered? If the board is free, then you give and take. But if it is something you have paid, I don't see why you can't request that area to be covered.
