I send you a PM with the info you needed.

Your kitchen is looking great. Love the stove/oven standalone. Reminds me of my childhood days where we have something like that.

Makanology has kindly pointed me to your blog of your 'laminate' marble wall for the TV console. Do you mind PMing me the price of it? My reno is more or less complete here http://www.renotalk.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=58811 Minus the TV feature area which I still use my old one. Thinking of replacing it though.

Hi! I would love to see more pics of your kitchen. I have a 'sort-of' French style reno but it turned out to be more 'bling bling' rather than French chic. http://www.renotalk.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=58811 I have yet to do my TV area and kitchen and I am looking for inspirations. I am not sure whether to go for ultra modern kitchen or a more 'Frenchified' or country style kitchen so I am interested in seeing house owners who did their house the French chic style to see how they deal with their kichen. Btw - congrats in getting the condo at the East side. I think your house must have appreciated by a lot. I know what you mean by being in debt and slave to your job. I am in the same boat too :-(

Thanks for the tip! I check out the blog and it looks nice! My contractor promised that he would keep in mind suitable marble/onyx (hahaha - you have no idea how prohibitively expensive onyx is)for me. He said surprisingly it may not be as expensive as I first thought because marble used for wall cannot be the too thick type. And also, since he has ties with major supply companies and has work in several hotels, he can get some 'leftover' pieces (cough, cough).

He almost 'murdered' me for being so fickle minded. But he did say he wants me to be happy. He did not like my choice saying they are 'very girly' but caved in after I whined at him. -
Hope to see how your remo goes & I may learn a thing or two. My reno turned out to be more 'bling bling' than French. http://www.renotalk.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=58811 I still have yet to do my kitchen so I am hoping to see more examples.

It is important to get what tiles you like because you are going to be stuck with it. I changed my mind 3 times AFTER the tiles arrived at my place. -

So sorry to hear about your situation. We got into a similar situation a few years ago. For your case, I think it is greed. Mine is not so straight forward. We wanted a flat at a specific location with lift level. My father had a stroke then & although he recovered, he had problem walking. So we decided to get a flat near to his favorite coffee shop and barber so that my father has easy access to these places. When we found the unit, we already sold off our place and the seller of new flat disappeared after the 1st appointment. Later we learnt that the seller who is above 55, had married a young Filipino and had a 2 year old son. As he had financial difficulties and had trouble paying for the flat, he decided to downgrade. However, he bought the flat at the peak of the price and when he sells it, the Singapore'a economy is in recession. As he is above 55, he realized that if he sells, all the money goes to his CPF and he would not get a single cent. Later we also learnt he did not pay the town council for 3 years which must be paid before flat could be sold. We had sympathy for the seller but we were put in a difficult position. In the end, we ended up paying all the outstanding town council fines and agents of both parties waived off their fees. -
I changed the color scheme of bed sheets and curtains to gold/brown. Changed the ambience of my master bedroom totally. Brown 1 by PinkTissue, on Flickr The curtains are from taobao. Aren't they pretty? The main curtain is very heavy. Love the lace details as they add a touch of class without being too 'country'. Brown 2 by PinkTissue, on Flickr

I love this! I think it would look nice with the blue wall tiles of my master bedroom. Curtain by PinkTissue, on Flickr

Thanks for the tip. I saw a yellow, white and blue French style kitchen while googling.I love the color scheme. I may just consider it. My Mr Contractor is trying to sway me to go for the ultra modern one though. I think he got very stressed doing my reno as he has never encounter my type of reno before. Even his workers took pictures of my house after reno. A non-standard kitchen may just throw him off to the deep end
