  2. Emiclus

  3. Emiclus
    Wow thanks for all the taobao links! Can I check what watt bulb you used for the dining light? Are the T5 lights for the toilet? Thanks!!

    I've been missing from this space for awhile! Got my key on 2 January and believe it or not, to date I have yet to finalize a contractor. Working around a budget definitely isn't easy but we've decided on the following 'must-have' items. We opted out of flooring from HDB in the fear that I would end up with something I didnt like. 1) Flooring (homogeneous tiles) for the living and dining room 2) Floating 5ft shoe cabinet 3) Wall Mounted Shelving behind the sofa 4) Hack off half the kitchen wall separating the dining and the kitchen so it has a semi open concept vibe 5) Overlay both toilet floors (the HDB tiles just seem to show up dirt SO easily) 6) Replace both toilet doors as HDB gave a huge wood door which would hit my shower screen each time. 7) Swing door shower screens for both toilets 8) Overlay toilet wall tiles in L shape for both toilets 9) WIW for Bedroom 2 10) L shape wardrobe in MBR 11) Open shelving in BR2 to display the hubs toys The one thing bugging me is how to conceal the TV wires WITHOUT doing a feature wall.

    As are you! Yours is by far my favorite t-blog I think your idea might be good! Maybe I should show my cheaper items to the contractor but scared lah, wait they tell me "ok you can go use person X in that case'! And thank YOU so much for the taobao review, I have a MASSIVE taobao order waiting to be checked out in the hopes of saving a buck or two!

    Oh gosh MrK that's terrible! Hope it didn't screw up your reno but at least their compensation was super gooood!!
  10. Emiclus
    Wow! MrK how did you do that?! I tried at LEAST 10x Liao they just tell me my item doesn't fall in their dimensions to qualify for free shipping *sianjipua*
  11. Emiclus
    yah, way above what i've got from other contractors. there might be a valid reason for it of course but out of my budget!
  12. Emiclus

  13. Emiclus

    Hi Jez, you're one of the nicest bloggers here, thanks so much for your reply!
  15. Emiclus
    I've never laughed so much at a T-blog before. Gorgeous designs you have there. Would you mind sharing your contractor's contact? I'm still in the midst of confirming mine despite already getting my keys!
  16. Emiclus
    Hi babe, are your track lights from Taobao as well?
  17. Emiclus
    I've spent 2 days reading every post in this thread! amazed... I never knew there was SO much stuff to get from Amazon. My cart has 1.5k worth of stuff now which Im awaiting Black Friday sales this Friday, But I think Vornado no longer ships to Singapore
  18. Emiclus
    hello there, would you mind telling me how much you paid for the sofa? Im looking at either a fabric or a leather one and im so grateful to you for sharing this shop cos I love the designs!
  19. Emiclus
    absolutely gorgeously done! The TV console is built and not store bought right? I love your color scheme and everything just gels very well, highly inspired
  20. Emiclus

  22. Emiclus
    hihi, can I check if behind the tv is a feature wall or wallpaper? it looks awesome!!
  23. Emiclus
    Hi Septh! I must say out of all the blogs I've read yours has inspired me the most! I'm intending to do my own project self planned and designed as well but after reading your blog, I feel more inspired and affirmed in my decision. Our concept is very similar and we will be having a display in our hall for my husband's massive toy collection as well Would you mind giving an indication of how much the electrical, plumbing and carpentry came up to? Thanks a mil and congrats on a wonderful project!

    my friend went to a couple of IDs, got a quote and then went to a contractor with the same designs and paid HALF. I'm aware of these issues but since I am on a budget, I guess I will need to work around these problems.
