  1. Haha no la.. i was using Photobucket mrmerry.. i dont know how to use Google
  2. yes am thinking of what to do.. but flickr you end up with smaller images?
  3. Oh no.. maybe I gave the wrong measurements. My bad. We checked a few awning people and he was cheapest.. but we did have to bargain hard. Thanks for your compliment on my folding doors.. I love it too.. but i realise my photos are gone again.......
  4. My ID said.. design flaw... he took it off and said will redo.. hehe
  5. To continue... We went to CB2 at peranakan place to get out master bedroom light. Htb kept worrying that the light we wanted was from last season and wouldn't be available. But I optimistically said maybe it will be on sale cuz last season? Annnnd indeed, everything in CB2 was on sale, 15% store wide. Plus our light was on additional sale 20%! Wheeee. We also found our living room rug there. It was a hard fight between the cream rug and the grey rug. The cream one would have more contrast from the cement screed floor. But the grey suited our brown leather sofa better. In the end, after a couple of calls to my ID, grey won. Hehe
  6. Went to ikea today to get hangers. Suddenly remembered that our electrician is coming on Wednesday and we haven't gotten our master bedroom light because we couldn't find one we liked. Our ID recommended a light at ikea, cheap and good. Somehow neither htb nor me liked it very much. I preferred this one But htb didn't. So we stood around sulking at each other in ikea, getting more and more frustrated. We wandered around the rugs/carpets section looking for a living room carpet. Didnt find anything perfect. In the end we gave up, and decided to go to CB2 to get a lamp we liked ages ago when we first started renovations. Didn't even get the hangers at ikea.
  7. Hi greglhc, my ID custom made it with a guy he uses for all his projects. And he hasn't shared who that is so I can't really help you there. Sorry... I can tell u he charged us about 4k for it and its powder coated aluminium if I'm not wrong.
  8. Hey rnj, it's century awning. +65 6312 2622. Look for Ricky. Yours is almost done soon, update pictures!
  9. hi RnJ! Long time no see.. How's your reno coming along? I rem your patio is also huge. I think my awning is 3.5m by 2.7m.. not 100% sure.. Hopefully you can tell roughly the size from the pictures. We paid 1350 bucks. Not sure if its cheap. Our ID sourced from two companies and his most competitive quote was 1.9k. So htb went to source himself and found a guy willing to do for 1350 bucks. So far so good.
  10. Hi belysa57, pm-ed! Yes I saw the green one at ikea too, is it the same one we saw? I wanted the more realistic vintage one which is why I didn't take the ikea one. I think the ikea one is more Scandinavian in feel? Whereas I wanted the industrial vintage feel. Hehe
  11. Haha thanks edd. I was gonna get a normal island, maybe from those vintage shops like LikeThatOne. But my ID say it won't match the vibe in the room and suggested the hanging island which htb was enthu about. Actually even now I'm not 100% sold. Shhhh
  12. Hi beng, haha yes, I reeally need the space. Now still puzzling over where to put my bags. how's your chandelier?
  13. Walk in wardrobe The little rectangular meshes on top are drying from the black spray paint. They'll go onto the cabinetry for the washer n dryer. The island drawers have to be redone because they didn't have tracks and that makes opening it verrry hard. Guess the carpenter didn't realise what had to be done as my ID was away. -_-
  14. Kitchen is still very messy. Hood is up but hob and sink not in yet. Am pleased with the all black hood. We saw many other hoods but because ours could be seen from the living room the side had to be nice looking too. Most hoods are sandwiched between two cabinets so sides are usually made of different materials and don't look good. So when we found this Turbo hood we immediately took it. Still awaiting the sink and the upper cabinetry. ID says he intends to do some piping stuff on the top shelves. I have no idea what he's gonna do so it'll be a surprise I guess. I like surprises. Stainless steel backsplash is already up but we haven't peeled off the sticker. Looking forward to see what it will look like. Sneak pic of my messy hall from my kitchen.
  15. Htb was worried because he heard washing machine and dryers emit a lot of heat which may spoil the wooden cabinets. But my clever ID left the back of the washer dryer area untouched so its just normal cement wall. He also made vents at the sides and spray painted them black because they only came in chrome/steel.
  16. Washer and dryer cabinets are up at the refrigerator area. The space is huge to cover part of the pipe.
  17. This is the most exciting part of renovations to me. All coming together!
  18. Congrats! Finally moved in officially. Is there a huge sense of satisfaction ?
  19. I really love your place.. can tell alot of work went into it and the concept is cool! I always admire DIY stuff.. feels so much more "your own" than off the rack stuff. Sadly.. I'm not talented in DIY-ing.
  20. Haha thanks.. All the best! I hope you get exactly what you want.
