Hi hope this helps,

Hi Clarence. Here u to.

Hi fishponder. U mean the red painting? It's sitting upon 2 screw heads drilled into the wall. It's a must as the weight is substantial. Drilling into the wall, using the plastic hole plug and then screwing in the screw is more accurate than using nails, especially if the painting is wide, does not hang via string and using more than one holding point. Nails tend to bend up or down during nailing and it's hard to achieve a perfect height thereby resulting in slanting pics. For screws, as long as your measurement and drilling is accurate, it's easier to achieve the exact contact point between screw and painting. Anyway it's behind the wall so no need to worry. If anything it can always be plastered up and repainted right?

Realized Squarerooms magazine online is cheaper than hard copies.

Hihi. Can pm me where to buy the drawer organizer too? Thanks and cheers!!

Hello Lushbelle... thanks!

Hmmm I think the place I bought blanco...er i forgot the name.... was putting my sink on special promotion sale. Prices could have went up already maybe?

Thanks thanks!

Hi momiji. I think 4ft of shelf for $280.

Congratulations!!! Simei rocks!! We moved into our place slighty under a year. it's gonna jazz up with new condos like manhattan and double bay. Also expo is nearby and the uni next time. Pretty nice town. The makeover is astonishing. Just comparing the before and after. Now just left with the soft furnishing. Keep us updated!!

Your place is awesomely spacious! I love the open kitchen looking out into the living space.

I like the White & Black theme. Always works well - at least for me! Happy Renovation - Always a joy!

Finally had time to put up the Canvas Painting left behind by the previous owner. Now the MBR seems pretty complete in terms of look.

Alan's coming down to fix up the little pops on the plastering. Also will try to solve the limescale thing in the toilet - his diagnosis -> maybe because I did not change the windows, only did the hacking and retiling, the edge of the windows retain the weakend cement allowing rainwater to seep in. I think he suggested re-cementing around it....see how he does...

Hihi - actually this is just plain simple solid top material. both the sink top and that shelf is solid top material - those you commonly use for kitchen/toilet top. I just asked my contractor to make a long strip so I can put stuff on it. Below is hollow and it sits on two metal bars and slicon to secure it. Hope this helps!

Hihi. Congrats on your new place. Mine's a 5-room. If you read through my entire blog you will realised i was specific in my reno works i.e. not a full ID renovation. Spent about $25K.

LOL - it's worst if the analog clock has no numbers on it...

i just checked - the number is 9828 0818 (Ah Soon).... try again and let me know?

I'm glad it helped you!!!! Thanks for the compliment!!

The kitchen tap from ipheno. Brand is g. Ferretti. So far working very well. Costs us about $400 plus. The rainshower coss about $700 plus if I'm not wrong.

Hi PinkPluck - thanks! Kitchen cabinets are laminates on plywood cabinets - NOT solid piece. But yes it does look and feel solid still. Its a mix of Walnut laminate with grains, and walnut colored plain laminate to create a different tone. So as not to have the whole piece of "wall" looking one tone. Anyway it was left from the previous owner's ID reno. We however added in the top cabinet ontop of the sink and got our contractor to use the same kind of laminate.

Thanks fishponder. Hope it inspires fellow forum readers!

Just a close of of the new packaging of PHILIPS LED I bought from lightings.com. It looks cheaper than the previous model. Previously it was matt dark in color. This is just a white metal frame now. Cutting cost maybe. Nonetheless it still works great. I bought the 4W ($30) for the main door balcony entrance. Also, recently procured a clock from Takashimaya, along with some wall decoration that my wife really likes as she commented the clock being too plain. They are from the branc UMBRA. Here's the final result after some back breaking installtion position. Used Blu-Tak for the flowers so that the wall plastering won't be ruined. It does not seem to hold well to strong adhesives such as 3M.
