Hi kathleenkhor,

Apologise for this late reply.. my broadband connection at home is down..

Anyway we got our coffee table for abt $350 from Alumix.. the glass is really thick n heavy.. they also have a few other sizes and design.. if you really like it,, shld probably pop by n take a look..

went to look for my shoe cabinet yest at kaki bukit, the first few shops i went to all pointed me to crystal house. i hv a friend who is a shoeholic i bet she would love to hv one in the window display. my fav part of ur shoe cabinet is actually the umbrella holder..so practical right? and yet so often overlooked! haiz... but in the end we decicded not to buy. my hubby is bigfoot, doubt the the shoe tree would fit and i dont think i will be able to close the door also hahahah.

love the egg chair too!

oh.. the one on display very chio too.. but too big for my usage.. for shoeholic.. that's an ideal choice! haha..

Oh yah.. the umbrella holder is very useful.. else most will end up hanging their umbrellas in the storeroom.. which might not be easily accessible some times..

actualli we came to realise that ikea also have some slim wall mount shoe cabinets.. but if you are interested in slim shoe cabinets.. ikea might be the other place to shop ard..

yah at first when i saw ur shoe cabinet i thot it was from ikea...till you revealed the inside..then confirm not ikea lol. we saw the ones at ikea too, the only one that i really like was the one that doubled as a bench but husband and i are very "healthy" ppl, so it didn't pass the muster.

i was looking for a conventional shoe cabinet, solid wood, but the designs these days always hv metal grids or glass top, and i'm not into that look. finally we found one at rattan pacific, made from bamboo. husband decided he really liked that one, plus it also has a low bench. no umbrella holder tho. meh.

We are kinda of enjoying our new lives now.. n getting used to things ard the house.. there are some things to unpack n arrange lah.. but basicalli this is the less stressful part and more fun part of moving house i guess.. once we finish unpacking and complete arranging our stuff.. maybe can share more pics.. haha..

Till then stay tuned! Wish all a great start to 2008! Cheers!

Oh.. the Alumix showroom ah.. it's located at Blk 2 Toa Payoh Industrial Park #01-1403. Singapore 319054. Just have to take Bus 238 from the interchange.

Yah.. it does make the house look more spacious.. that's why I use quite a fair bit of glass for my house.. the living room would seemed very small if i choose the conventional way of segregating the rooms..

haha.. agreed fully with you applefreak.. this is one of the best place to shop for furniture stuff.. haha.. zhen chong ming!

Actuali if you worry that your parents will knock into the coffee table.. you can place a long piece of cloth with nice nice design across the length of the table.. that way.. you might even have a very unique coffee table of your own.. haha..

[applefreak 1]

just got my tv console and study table

will finish rearranging everything first and see how

if have space for it, i'll definitely take your suggestion

then i can have a glass table with ***** liao
