    Shirley, i think with the amount you plan to purchase..MAYBE Amcon is a better bet. Do a search around on forum...type in Taobao. I started a thread...heaps of helpful tips there. HTH

    Cute table! Didn't see that in the latest catalogue. Nice buy

    I think all home renos have to factor in unforeseen expenses. Just to share, we didn't plan to change our windows for the house now...but well...due to water seepage...bye bye 3K plus. LOL....beams appeared in strange places...that needed to be leveled out or else they would be unsightly...again..pay...LOL...these things happen. Think just try and put aside at least 10% of reno cost aside...as a buffer for unforeseen expenses.

    lucky gal! Those crates are hard to come by...mostly because most winemakers have switched to the cardboard boxes...if i am not wrong...only bordeaux are still being packaged in these wooden crates

    In a perfect world...I would have three weeks from now till move in too! But due to work constraints...i have to move in earlier...my carpentry installation has not even started but I have arranged for all delivery, and movers to get the house sorted by 9 Oct. We plan to spend our first night in the home on 9 Oct...boy oh boy...it is worrying.

    i tried that with my contractor...i think it works out to be about close to 30% savings...was thinking of getting my tiles from JB...in the end...for all the coordinating and stress if there isn't enough tiles, i scrapped it

    Just keep repeating what i was telling myself..."it's ok....it is a need..not a want....this will go to more robinsons vouchers too...it's ok.." LOL

    LOL...i remember the crazy weekend of light purchasing for the house...man...i was signing and signing...and making a mental note of total spend...quite scary!
  22. vanessa
    HAHAHAHA I have to be extra careful cos i plan to conduct cooking classes at the new home. Yes, i think it is very similar to solid surface...but Kompactop looks prettier
  23. vanessa
    for kompactop...tumeric...red win and chilli oil stained...but it could be a chemical reaction of all the different liquids that cause it to stain. LOL not sure. To be fair...quartz didn't hold up to my staining too. oh! i did use my fav chef knife to scratch the kompactop...and i could FEEL the indentation but it was not visible. If that makes sense. Just a heads up to be careful
  24. vanessa
    LOL...

    Thanks OceanEleven...i have put this on my wish list....maybe purchase this later. As for the plug...can't we just change it to a singapore plug?
