we bought 3 store room shelves online. when my hubby tried to fix up the shelves, we realized the store room is actually too small for 3 shelves to fit in. so we are letting go one of the shelves. white color 1m x 0.4m x 2.0m pm me if anyone is interested. =p

it's been a month since I posted stuff last time. apparently the id firm doesn't have their own contractors and they cant control the sub-cons. poor coordinations among themselves. many days no contractors came to the house. luckily their attitude is good. willing to make changes when things went wrong. and I wont forget to deduct from the final bill for the delay. =p the tv console area before the wallpaper the tv feature wall with leaves wallpaper sofa is here! from casa Italy washing machine in the service yard sumsung two door fridge

pm u d details already.. hopefully it helps..

we are afraid of leaking in the future. so we decided to build up a cement wall at the wet zone. it is to protect our kitchen cabinets. =)

curtain tracks were installed. my mbr window is v tricky. it is a 'u' shape. the curtain professional is v gd with his hands. he bends the track to a 'u' shape. v happy to see single track at d window..

im using none of them.. haha.. managed to find a local contact.. onli charge me $4.5/kg by air.. more disc if d order is above 100kg.. no agent fee whatsoever.. d best part is d goods are delivered to d doorstep by UPS.. but they r nt responsible for any damages due to transport..

tao bao is really a great place to save money.. haha.. so far we ordered 11 items online! cant wait for d goods to arrive! so excited!! xD

hi, congrats to ur new house! which block r u getting? 4rm too?pm u d contact alr..

hi there, im nt gg to block d window.. as d room is really windy when keeping it open.. got some ideas to make it a feature wall.. hopefully its nt gonna cost me much..

im actually very confused by gaincity aircon contractor. he claims tis is the best trunking he could do in my mbr. what i see is extremely ugly bulky aircon trunking. if they could run the pipings above the window, at least the trunking can be boxed up. but mine is happening in d middle of nowhere! what can i do to camouflage this? i need ideas!

after dismantle d toilet partition

Yay! Finally Reno start today!Hacking day.. And they managed to dismantle d toilet partition. No screws into d tiles. Hubby hated d partition so much.. Haha

my id insisted removing d partition will damage d wall n floor tiles..they say d partition is sitting inside d tiles.. and say it will affect d water proofing membrane when removing it.. so it needs a major work in d toilet.. do u haf any idea how did d contractor dismantle d partition of ur cousin house? does it damage d wall n floor tiles?.. thank u !!

Uploaded with ImageShack.us floor plan.. some initial layout ideas...juz saw a fengshui master today. gonna have some changes..

yup.. lucky us.. we got blk 423..

basically we were in dilemma when choosing between contractor n id. we had some rough ideas but nor sure abt d color matchings. so we finally look for id. first of all, i feel d id must know exactly wat i want. some ids maybe r v experienced, but often they r too engrossed in their own designs, forgot to listen to my needs. we met 4 ids and 2 contractors. all have diff opinions of layout. e.g. when i told them i want to hack my kitchen walls to shrink d kitchen size, so is to make my living/dining area look bigger. one of d id insisted my kitchen is too small, and suggested to put d frigde outside of d kitchen, which is next to d shoe cabinet..-.-.. for sure we dint choose him.. so make sure ur id and u have d same frequency, and understand ur needs n want. secondly, d price. if d quotation is within ur budget, and u think their service is worth dat much. after comparing, i feel d price is more or less abt d same if u r consistent for d choice of materials. lastly, d terms n conditions of d contract. after reading d forums, i realized it is v common to have delays for renovation. to prevent tis, i asked d company to add on one additional clause, to state d compensation if any delays. one id firm says can onli claim up to 1k compensation, $300/day. i feel it shouldnt b capped. wat if they delay for 1 month? so i feel dat particular id firm is nt very confident for d punctuality of handing over. again, it depends on d personal preference. hope it helps.

how to check for defects? within 7 days, we need to report to hdb..

we juz got our house keys of casa clementi. so excited! hope to share reno experience n exchange some ideas along d way. we engaged one id. meanwhile waiting for 3d drawings...😊
