Cantona7 0 Report post Posted February 26, 2008 Cantona7: My sentiments too. My parents in law didn't find the grey & red colours appealing during the period we'd were painting the living/dining and before the flooring was up. 'Cos the colours were too sombre and dark in their opinion, you know traditional outlook in older generation. Now it is better with them due to the flooring adding a touch of warmthI can understand that feeling too cos I am facing the same music whenever my parent or parenet in-law come to our place.

BunBun 5 Report post Posted February 26, 2008 (edited) What to do. Tahan all the way since parents or parents in law not staying with you right? I can understand that feeling too cos I am facing the same music whenever my parent or parenet in-law come to our place. I would say the painting is quirky in a way. The painting is a good buy actually considering such paintings of medium to big sizes are more ex. Why envious about the balcony? Balcony is not big in terms of sizes. considered decent enough to walk from one point to another point only. e dining area painting is so CUTE!

applefreak 1 Report post Posted February 27, 2008 wah bunbun we've got similar taste lehour kitchens are without top cabinets, white cabinets with dark colour countertop and we are both using the grundtal shelves and we are using ho bee too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BunBun 5 Report post Posted February 27, 2008 (edited) Applefreak : Yep we have similar kitchen layout type, only difference is that yours got a sink concrete support, mine don't have. And I don't know whether Ho Bee is the one who did the kitchen works for you although I know you used Ho Bee.I used my parent's in law's lobang for the kitchen layout. Top & bottom cabinet quotation is freaking ex with box up of the pipes as my kitchen cabinet length is about 13ft. (Actual size is bigger if counting by the size of the kitchen room?) So decided only to do the bottom cabinet instead. Did you use just all white laminate without pattern for your cabinets? Have you put up your racks yet?xlan : hehe saw your blog too. your place looks not bad also! My DIY-Ing is just so so but thanks for your kind compliments! Cantona7: you're very bad to both sets of parents. LOL. If my parents alone, I will go crazy when it comes to music cos my parents are music lovers. Those kinda folksy tunes and the classic types. My parents in law, I don't know yet Btw, your toilets look good! I see also want to enjoy the 'hotel' feeling haha.Haroldism : Easy, get a chair put outside your unit and sit there smoke outside. Like this also can enjoy a view while smoking. Edited February 27, 2008 by BunBun Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BunBun 5 Report post Posted February 28, 2008 To give you a rough idea, my dining table for eg is about 700+ sgd with 6 chairs compared to the one sold at both courts & nova furniture in singapore. Courts has a study table in the same metal frame but its going for about 1000 odd while the exact same dining table at Nova is almost 1k with just 4 chairs.If you buy more furniture pieces, I think you can get a discount though. You can try asking.hows the price like for the furniture in JB? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
