Looks yummy!

You are still building your home and that on its own, means your house will be unique and interesting to you. Enjoy the journey

The touched up stool looks awesome! How many more stools do you have to do up?

I think that is a great idea! I can imagine how interesting it will look!

I know how you feel about missing the whole renovation process congrats for 'graduating' and enjoy your beautifully-built home!

Nice nice!!

Oh dear but I am sure the technician may have mixed up and said the wrong stuff. Don't worry, all will be well just fill up your new place with lots of love and laughter!

Nice touches and it is always more meaningful to bring back souvenirs and beautiful memories from holidays

I can understand why it is hard to resist the bedroom ... Looks cosy and very liveable already!

Sadly yesterday we found out our pink phone is spoilt trying to figure out which part went wrong... Lucky this is from Taobao and not some vintage piece that is costly.

Hi Pivy, MBR is Nippon Easy Wash 8181 while study room is Nippon Easy Wash 5086.

Me too! Pink is a most wonderful color!! Lol

Yes the flowers are amazing right? Can't tell they are $2 per stalk right? There's a florist in IMM that specializes in artificial flowers and they are of superior quality but with higher prices. We bought a bunch of fake cymbidium orchids at $52 but after discovering the Daiso ones, we decided to try some. No regrets! Oh the containers are from Ikea (gardening section). Lucky is, we managed to buy all the 3 colors available - vermillion, blue and beige

Let me get my hubby to check as he has stored the remaining cans of paint at the top shelf in the storeroom... Me just not tall enough

Any idea where does pink rank among these colors?

Lucky you are bunking in with Mom's! Do try to keep a very close eye on the works. We didn't have a smooth renovation journey so would like to share advice/tips to fellow forumers using the same contractor. BTW your theme sounds amazing! Do you have a lot of orientation Rajasthan rugs in your collection?

Suggest you get a Flickr account, upload your pictures and copy the BB code. Paste it on renotalk and viola! We can all see your pictures!

Welcome to renotalk! Hope you get the good tilers that we got - Ah Meng & team. Out of curiosity, are you in a rush to get the renovation done and move in?

I can understand why your wifey chooses the pink...it is too lovely to be resisted. If both of you keep lotsa snacks, cakes, drinks, fruits in the fridge, then I suggest the biggest size would be better cos the price difference is around $230-250?

Haha very good buy from Taobao. It has been one of the talking pieces whenever friends come over to our place. Strangely, Mr E was the one who wanted this in pink... I was rooting for a beige, red or black phone!

I just browsed through Ikea mobile app and the exact name is Besta shelf unit / height extension unit 60x20x64cm, going at $40 each. Still available in birch, black-brown & white @ Alexandra think the price has dropped slightly!

Pink smeg! You ordered the 2nd larger size? Out of curiosity, how many of you in the house? Would this size be sufficient? We bought the larger size from Unilite and there are 2 of us at home. Fridge now seems too big as we keep stashing stuff and forgot to monitor the use-by date! And welcome to the smeg / Unilite club

Nice kitchen decor especially your pink kitchen scale!
