this is where we went after work....

what about using vpost? I have an account if you want me to order it for you....

GORGEOUS GORGEOUS GORGEOUS!! Wish I had your vision and style!

hmmmm tempted too.. been using the lock and lock but this is so much more worth it!! no leh... didn't have time in the end to go to the shop to see was on a work trip leh.. not holiday! My idea of a holiday is to stay at home!!! Have to fly to Jakarta next week for work......sigh sigh sigh

coming together well! wanna see the final product!

good news on AFC! am very happy with myself.. didn't shop too much in Europe!! hehe

hi everyone, just got back this morning.. straight to the office how are things??

for ong lai balls... you can come over anytime!!!

hi hi, sorry was out in teh countryside over the weekend and didn't get a chance to let you know.. the knife block is Euro 69 (less about 10% for tax). It has the space for the cleaver. didn't see WMF in Ireland, but if you can wait, will be in German/Spain in Nov, WMF cheaper there... hmmm if you don't get an oven, will invite you to my house, buy all the ingredients and beg you to make in my house!! i love pineapple tarts!!!!!!

surely, will go back and check when I pick up the Nespresso over the weekend (hope my BF decides to go for coffee so I can walk around more, MEN are really horrible to shop with!!) Am hoping to put a feature wall behind my bed with wall paper or some art, saw in a friends house the other day some she used so she will bring me over the weekend to go and take a look... the lenght is about 10 m per roll at Euro 40.... quite ok, right? Bought 2 home decor magazines in the airpor the other day.... OMG!!! I want an Aga stove!!!!! If only we had the space in the apartments in singapore, sigh.. the houses are so nice! I'm lucky, I get to come over for free coz of work! But it's not free also lah, during the week must work with endless meetings !! But they don't care what I do over the weekends so it's great!! And since hotel/food is paid for by the company, I only need to pay for my shopping!!

yah! horrible hor?? but really like Tod's, very very comfy!

titanax, they have something similar in Howard's Storage world... both the fixed type and the expandable type.. can't remember how much I bought them for though.

yeah, so many cute and nice stuff!! Sam... saw the knife blocks you were discussing!!!! Forgot to check how much but will go and see over the weekend. There are so many cute and innovative stuff for the home.... Am tempted to buy hand painted wall papers, one roll is only Euro 50 but dunno if I can find people to install for me!! Am carrying back a Nespresso Citiz for my mum coz it's only Euro 179 and I can claim at lest 15% tax back!!! Tod's shoes on sale were Euro 189, which is about SGD 330 -- half the price !!! arghhh luckily no size! haha

hello from holland... been a good girl, haven't bought anything major yet! saw a really nice clock over the weekend in ireland, think will go back and pick it up when i'm back on Friday.. the house stuff are all soooo nice!! wish I could bring it all home!

hahahaha i had to read this out loud a few time to get what you were saying!!! to Neo: nice house, good condition too..... seems a pity to tear down the kitchen cabinets!!

must use heavy duty double sided tape for these, the one that comes with the corner protectors are not strong at all!

would love to see the finished home too!!

wow fifteenmay.... completion soon! can still remember the beginning of your reno! congratulations and enjoy your new home

I love your TV console and coffeetable! May I ask where you got it?

almost over Sam! congratulations!!

the decking is laid on top of wooden beams, not directly onto the floor... the part by where the planter is is also removable, so any issues I can see from there.

don't really know but most wood is porous, so I would expect some seepage but so far after 3 months I've not noticed any issues. They will recommend an oil which you have to put say twice a year.... you're welcome to come look at mine if you wan to see it first hand. not sure about the price of chengai.... when I was sourcing for decking I only looked at teak and bamboo...

she said it can withstand the rain. I also got a small piece from her and soaked it in water for 2 days then put under the sun, no cracks or warps. Thanks!! I love the timeless look of wooden furniture, doesn't age and look dated. yeah, that mirror i bio for a long long time.... then cannot find the same kind (could also be because in my heart that was the one I really wanted) so bit the bullet and bought it liao... my justification is that even if I move again, I should still be able to use it for many years to come!

That is very very clever!!! Nice house!
