Thanks ! You can always start with small projects... There are also many YouTube videos on DIY projects..

Hi, pm-ed you

Reno should complete by this week and I cant wait for round 2 to happen! I'm going to get smth done for the long, white dining room wall so that it will be a nice backdrop for my dining table and also tie in with my kitchen wall. ID suggested pipe shelves and pallet boxes photo.JPG by BachelorettePad, on Flickr photo.JPG by BachelorettePad, on Flickr photo.JPG by BachelorettePad, on Flickr photo.JPG by BachelorettePad, on Flickr photo.JPG by BachelorettePad, on Flickr But ID is so busy...so I'm not sure when it will happen. Keeping my fingers crossed!

your kitchen is so cute! Is that alphabet on your backsplash?

You are making me very 'sum see see' ! ... My ID hasn't officially handed over my place yet..so theoretically I can still add. but I got no space.. May be I will have a bath stool instead of bath seat.. Haha!

Thanks! A lot of time spent on researching and soul searching to find out what I really like and want.

Pm-ed .. Thanks

Hello Macuser, the ID whom Stinz and I are using is also a Mr Foo but not the same as the Mr Foo you met in Chinatown. Our ID is a very nice man leh and is not the type who show face if he hears that your budget is very low. I started out with a low budget too bcos I only wanted to renovate my kitchen and MBR and he is always thinking of how to save money for me. Now I have added more works bcos I'm very happy with him. So I'm 100% sure this Mr Foo is different from that Mr Foo

Hi Stinz, how did you know Foo is working on my place? Now there is no more secrecy! Haha! You should quickly post the pix here so that forummers can see how creative our ID is

hi, I have no idea where it is from. My ID bought it for me. You can check with him. I think I pm-ed you his contact earlier ..

I would love to have a seat too but my bathroom is small. If I build one there, the whole shower stall will be full!

While doing the final touch up today, ID passed me his dark wax and suggested that I go distress my stationery drawers. He must be thinking I was very bored. So I dabbed a bit of the wax on the drawers and rubbed it all over to create that distressed look. photo.JPG by Limeng493, on Flickr photo.JPG by Limeng493, on Flickr It looks so genuinely dirty and worn out...but I like it. I shall use it in the kitchen to store my packets of sugar and tea bags in foil.

Thanks ! Some people like computers, hi fi sets, cars or branded bags etc. But I like dining table bcos that's where the family come together to eat and talk...

More pix of my 'baby'... photo.JPG by Limeng493, on Flickr photo.JPG by Limeng493, on Flickr Here's a shot of my table and my tv console/tv wall. The latter is done but I still need to furnish it a bit to bring out more of the industrial feel. photo.JPG by Limeng493, on Flickr Here's a funny shot - Godzilla versus Rambo photo.JPG by Limeng493, on Flickr On the left is Godzilla (son of furniture maker) .... On the right is Rambo (my ID with a drill)... Who will win this fight?? Needless to say...my ID! Woohoo...!

My table was finally ready after more than two weeks. it took three men - the furniture maker's son and his two assistants - to carry the table to my place. photo.JPG by Limeng493, on Flickr The cast iron legs were screwed on at my place.. photo.JPG by Limeng493, on Flickr Checking that the table is balanced photo.JPG by Limeng493, on Flickr Here it is! photo.JPG by Limeng493, on Flickr photo.JPG by Limeng493, on Flickr
