    The smeg colonial hood looks good! Didn't know they have something of this design... Wonder how much it is...

    Hi inthechouse, understand how you feel when you reminded Alan on the completion date... We faced the same challenge. Anyways, during the painting period, do check that the painters also paint the top of all your doors.

    Top of all doors not painted! by Makanology, on Flickr 6 months have passed since we moved in and today we found shoddy work done by Alan. His painter did not paint the top of all doors, including the main door. I mean, shouldn't one be proud of their work and do a complete job? There is simply no professionalism shown.

    Nice distressing work! All these little touches help to change the house to a home

    Smeg is so lovely right? It would match the barn door very well!

    Hi, if you can, check that all the tiles delivered are the right ones. We received tiles that were meant for another project and subsequently were still with us even after our renovation.

    Hi out of curiosity, what does a wooden plank motif wall looks like?

    Of course! But when we first saw her with all the blues, that moment was woah! Lost for words! You don't know if you should scold, cry or laugh!
  13. Makanology
    Totally agreed!

    Awesome collection of vintage phones! I have never seen some of these before in real life... Very beautiful!

    Turquoise is the hot fav color here. We just painted an old side table in turquoise!

    We were re-doing / packing the study room when she found a bottle of refill blue ink and played with it... Ended up with blue tongue, mouth and paws! Yesterday Mr E was painting an old table and she tried to do the same thing... Sneaky little one!

    Taobao's cyber sale for 12 Dec... Already there are sellers peddling their 1212 offers. Good time to stock up office Christmas gifts!

    Hey with the recent Black Friday/ Cyber Monday deals and the coming TB 1212 offers, did you buy anything else?

    Hi we have completed our renovation almost 6 months ago. Your advice is sound and if you don't mind to read our tblog and go through our many pages of ranting, perhaps you will have a better idea of the agony we have gone through. It wasn't about the updates that we wanted from him. He just gave us the numbers of his sub-contractors and told us to coordinate ourselves. To cut the long story short, we took over the whole project management ourselves with my hubby going down daily from 9am - 6pm to work side by side with his sub-contractors, such that they all appreciated my hubby's presence and even bought him coffee & lunch. It is a really long story but we heard a very different side of the story from his sub-contractors.... Anyways we are glad that your renovation is turning out very nicely and that's the most important objective, right? The workmanship of the sub-contractors are undeniably good, we admit and we are grateful that most of them helped us through our difficult moment. To date, we still keep in touch with them. Great bunch of folks! Enjoy the rest of your renovation journey. We will be contacting the sub-contractors directly in future if we decide to move again

    Wow you are a true vintage lover! My hubby doesn't allow me to go all the way so I am allowed to buy vintage knick-knacks. But nice.... And welcome to RT!

    Oh you are using Dorothy, that's nice! We considered her but haiz, I thought we shared better chemistry with our contractor, Mr A so we went with him. On hind sight, we regretted this big time! Should have gone with Dorothy...

    Lucky you to have a good experience with him. Some of us ain't that lucky. Still, it is good if you know what you want so it helps decision-making easier & quicker!
